TROUBLE JUDGMENT

When an open circuit is detected in the taillight cir-
cuit, the ETACS-ECU sets DTC B16A0. If a short cir-
cuit is detected, DTC B16A7 is set.

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)

The problem detection of taillight is made based on 
the digital feed back signal (input signal to 
ETACS-ECU) which operates the taillight. When the 
ignition switch is "ON", the ETACS-ECU determines 
the taillight circuit state from the load placed on the 
line. After 100 ms has elapsed since the start of the 
check, the ETACS-ECU performs a sampling with 
each 10 ms. If an abnormality is detected, it 
increases the counter by 2, and when no abnormality 
is detected, it decreases the counter by 1. Once the 
counter reaches "10", the ETACS-ECU sets the DTC 
B16A0 if the load is detected on the line, and sets the 
DTC B16A7 if no load is detected.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS

• Malfunction of bulbs

• Malfunction of rear combination light unit (RH)

• The wiring harness or connectors may have 

loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or termi-
nals pushed back in the connector

• Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB992006: Extra fine probe

• MB991223: Harness set

• MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.)

• MB991827: M.U.T.-III USB Cable

• MB991910: M.U.T.-III Main Harness A (Vehicles with 

CAN communication system)

STEP 1. Bulb check.
Check the bulb of the light that does not illuminate.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Replace the bulb of the light that does not illuminate.

STEP 2. Check headlight assembly (RH) connector A-56 
for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals 
pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is headlight assembly (RH) connector A-56 in good 

condition?
YES : Go to Step 3.
NO  :  Repair the damaged parts.

STEP 3. Resistance measurement at headlight assembly 
(RH) connector A-56.
(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure at the wiring 

harness side.

(2) Measure the resistance between headlight assembly (RH) 

connector A-56 (terminal No. 6) and the body ground.

The measured value should be continuity exists (2 
Ω or less).

Q: Does the measured resistance value correspond with 

this range?
YES : Go to Step 5.
NO :  Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Check the wiring harness between headlight 
assembly (RH) connector A-56 (terminal No. 6) and 
ground.
Check the ground line for open circuit.
Q: Is the wiring harness between headlight assembly (RH) 

connector A-56 (terminal No. 6) and ground in good 
condition?
YES : Go to Step 17.
NO :  Repair the wiring harness.

STEP 5. Check ETACS-ECU connectors C-304 for loose, 
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back 
in the connector.
Q: Is ETACS-ECU connectors C-304 in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  Repair the damaged parts.

STEP 6. Check the wiring harness between headlight 
assembly (RH) A-56 connector (terminal No. 4) and 
ETACS-ECU connector C-304 (terminal No. 7).
Check the communication line for open or short circuit.
Q: Is the wiring harness between headlight assembly (RH) 

A-56 connector (terminal No. 4) and ETACS-ECU 
connector C-304 (terminal No. 7) in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 7.
NO :  Repair the wiring harness.

STEP 7. Check rear side marker light (RH) connector F-10 
for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals 
pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is rear side marker light (RH) connector F-10 in good 

condition?
YES : Go to Step 8.
NO  :  Repair the damaged parts.

STEP 8. Resistance measurement at rear side marker light 
(RH) connector F-10.
(1) Disconnect the connector, and measure at the wiring 

harness side.

(2) Measure the resistance between rear side marker light (RH) 

connector F-10 (terminal No. 1) and the body ground.

The measured value should be continuity exists (2 
Ω or less).

Q: Does the measured resistance value correspond with 

this range?
YES : Go to Step 10.
NO :  Go to Step 9.

STEP 9. Check the wiring harness between rear side 
marker light (RH) connector F-10 (terminal No. 1) and 
ground.
Check the ground line for open circuit.
NOTE: Before the wiring harness check, check the F-15, F-18 
and repair that if necessary.
Q: Is the wiring harness between rear side marker light 

(RH) connector F-10 (terminal No. 1) and ground in good 
condition?
YES : Go to Step 17.
NO :  Repair the wiring harness.
