(2) Read the ETACS-DTC.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the ETACS-DTC set?

YES : Refer to GROUP 54A, ETACS 

− Diagnostic Trouble 

Code Chart

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then to go to Step 7.

STEP 4. Check for short circuit to power supply between

STEP 5. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic 
trouble code (DTC).
(1) Turn the ignition switch ON and "LOCK" (OFF), and then 

leave it in the "LOCK" (OFF) position for more than 10 
seconds. Place the ignition switch in the ON position again.

(2) After the MFI-DTC has been deleted, read the MFI-DTC 

again.

(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC P2530 set?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. 

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use 
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points 

− How to 

Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions 

P.00-15

.

STEP 6. Replace the ETACS-ECU.
(1) Replace the ETACS-ECU.
(2) Turn the ignition switch ON and "LOCK" (OFF), and then 

leave it in the "LOCK" (OFF) position for more than 10 
seconds. Place the ignition switch in the ON position again.

(3) After the DTC has been deleted, read the DTC again.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC P2530 set?

YES : Replace the ECM. When the ECM is replaced, 

register the ID code. Refer to GROUP 42B, Diagnosis 
− ID Codes Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles 

with KOS> 

P.42B-15

 or GROUP 42C, Diagnosis 

− ID 

Codes Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles with 
WCM> 

P.42C-10

. Then go to Step 7.

NO :  The inspection is complete.

STEP 7. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic 
trouble code (DTC).
(1) Turn the ignition switch ON and "LOCK" (OFF), and then 

leave it in the "LOCK" (OFF) position for more than 10 
seconds. Place the ignition switch in the ON position again.

(2) After the DTC has been deleted, read the DTC again.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC P2530 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO :  The inspection is complete.

DTC U0001: Bus Off

CAUTION

• If the ECM output the DTC U0001, make sure 

to diagnose the CAN bus line.

• Before replacing the ECU, make sure that the 

communication circuit is operating normally.
