STEP 5. Check the wiring harness between joint connector 
(CAN3) C-01 and ECM connector B-11 for a short to 
ground. Measure the resistance at joint connector (CAN3) 
C-01.
(1) Disconnect joint connector (CAN3), and measure the 

resistance at the wiring harness side of joint connector 
(CAN3).

(2) Measure the resistance between joint connector (CAN3) 

terminal 4 and body ground.

OK: 1 k

Ω or more

(3) Measure the resistance between joint connector (CAN3) 

terminal 15 and body ground.

OK: 1 k

Ω or more

Q: Do all the resistances measure 1 k

Ω or more?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  Go to Step 12.

STEP 6. Check the wiring harness between joint connector 
(CAN3) C-01 and ABS-ECU connector A-01 <vehicles 
without ASC> or ASC-ECU connector A-02 <vehicles with 
ASC> for a short to ground. Measure the resistance at joint 
connector (CAN3) C-01.
(1) Disconnect joint connector (CAN3), and measure the 

resistance at the wiring harness side of joint connector 
(CAN3).

(2) Measure the resistance between joint connector (CAN3) 

terminal 6 and body ground.

OK: 1 k

Ω or more

(3) Measure the resistance between joint connector (CAN3) 

terminal 19 and body ground.

OK: 1 k

Ω or more

Q: Do all the resistances measure 1 k

Ω or more?

YES <CVT, A/T> : Go to Step 7.
YES <M/T> : Check intermediate connector C-33, and 

repair if necessary. If the intermediate connector is in 
good condition, repair the wiring harness between 
joint connector (CAN2) C-04 and joint connector 
(CAN3) C-01.

NO  :  Go to Step 13.

STEP 7. Check the wiring harness between joint connector 
(CAN3) C-01 and TCM connector C-38 for a short to 
ground. Measure the resistance at joint connector (CAN3) 
C-01.
(1) Disconnect joint connector (CAN3), and measure the 

resistance at the wiring harness side of joint connector 
(CAN3).

(2) Measure the resistance between joint connector (CAN3) 

terminal 7 and body ground.

OK: 1 k

Ω or more

(3) Measure the resistance between joint connector (CAN3) 

terminal 20 and body ground.

OK: 1 k

Ω or more

Q: Do all the resistances measure 1 k

Ω or more?

YES : Check intermediate connector C-27, and repair if 

necessary. If the intermediate connector is in good 
condition, repair the wiring harness between joint 
connector (CAN2) C-04 and joint connector (CAN3) 
C-01.

NO :  Go to Step 14.

STEP 8. Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose the CAN bus 
line. (checking the steering wheel sensor for internal short 
to ground)

CAUTION

Strictly observe the specified wiring harness repair proce-
dure. For details refer to 

P.54C-7

.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Disconnect steering wheel sensor connector C-209.
(2) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(4) Diagnose CAN bus lines, and check if the scan tool 

MB991958 screen is as shown in the figure.

OK: The display of the scan tool MB991958 is as 
shown in the figure.

Q: Does scan tool MB991958 screen correspond to the 

illustration?
YES : Repair the wiring harness between steering wheel 

sensor connector C-209 and joint connector (CAN2) 
C-04.

NO :  Check steering wheel sensor connector C-209, and 

repair if necessary. If the steering wheel sensor 
connector is in good condition, replace the steering 
wheel sensor.
