| STANDARD FLOW OF DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLESHOOTING
| Gather information about the problem from the customer. Verify that the condition described by the customer exists. NOTE: If an error occurs in the SWS communication line, the ECU isolated from the communication line performs a fail-safe or backup operation, so the problem may not match the one shown in the Trouble Symptom Chart. However, the cause of the failure can be tracked down by performing the following troubleshooting with the SWS monitor. Confirming version number and destination Check whether the SWS version number (0) and destination (Japan) meet the vehicle specifications. If they are different, replace the ETACS-ECU with a correct one. ECU check on the SWS monitor Check whether the communication status of the input- or output-signal-side ECU associated with the defective function is normal. If "OK" is displayed for all related ECUs, they communicate with each other normally and the input or output signal circuit system may be defective. Therefore, check SWS monitor service data. If "NG" is displayed for any of the related ECUs, something may be wrong with the ECU for which "NG" appears, its power supply or grounding system, or a wiring harness or connector between the SWS monitor and the ECU. Check the wiring harness and connectors associated with the ECU and examine the ECU itself. Check the data list by using the SWS monitor. Select the defective function from the function-specific diagnostic menu, and check the service data that appears for each function item. This allows you to check whether the transmission data is normal or not. You can judge which circuit is the cause of the trouble, input circuit or output circuit. NOTE: In addition to the function-specific diagnostic menu, a service data menu is available for SWS monitor service data to check all items for each ECU. The switch condition does not meet the service data display: Input signal system related to defective functions The switch condition meets the service data display: Output signal system related to defective functions Check of input signal circuit system Check relevant switch, sensor, input signal-side ECU and their wiring harness and connector. Check of output signal circuit system Check an output signal-side ECU, electrical load components and their wiring harness and connector.
