TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL) DIAGNOSIS
TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL)13C-32
STEP 4. Check the harness wire between ABS/TCL-ECU
connector A-02 terminal 21 and TCL switch connector
C-131 terminal 1 for damage.
Q: Are there harness wires in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Repair the damaged harness wire. Then go to Step 7.

STEP 5. Check the harness wire between TCL switch
connector C-131 terminal 2 and ground for damage.
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Repair the damaged harness wire. Then go to Step 7.
STEP 6. Retest the system
Q: Does TCL system cancel, when the TCL switch is
pushed on?
YES : 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 Malfunction P.00-14).
NO : Replace the hydraulic unit (integrated with
ABS/TCL-ECU). (Refer to GROUP 35B
Hydraulic
Unit P.35B-93). Then go to Step 7.
STEP 7. Retest the system
Q: Does TCL system cancel, when the TCL switch is
pushed on?
YES : The procedure is complete.
NO : Return to Step 1.

TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL) DIAGNOSIS
TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL)13C-34
INSPECTION PROCEDURE 6: TCL does not Operate.
NOTE: If the ABS-8 ECU or the active wheel
speed sensor are disconnected, or if the wiring is
an open/ short circuit, the ABS 8 ECU will shut
off power supply to the respective wheel speed
sensor. All other wheel speed sensors will oper-
ate normally. To restore the power supply, the
ignition switch must be turned to the "OFF" posi-
tion then to the "ON" position again.
.
COMMENT
The fail-safe function is probably cancelling TCL. In
this case, diagnostic tool MB991958 can be used to
retest each system by checking the diagnostic trou-
ble codes.
.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (THE MOST
LIKELY CAUSES FOR THIS CASE:)
Malfunction of the CAN bus line.
Malfunction of the MPI system.
Malfunction of the A/T system.
Malfunction of the ABS/TCL-ECU.
DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tools:
MB991958: Diagnostic Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)
MB991824: V.C.I.
MB991827: MUT-III USB Cable
MB991910: MUT-III Main Harness A
STEP 1. Using diagnostic tool MB991958, read the
diagnostic trouble code.
To prevent damage to diagnostic tool MB991958, always
turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position
before connecting or disconnecting diagnostic tool
MB991958.
(1) Connect diagnostic tool MB991958 to the data link
connector. (Refer to P.13C-3).
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Use diagnostic tool MB991958 to read the TCL diagnostic
trouble codes. (Refer to P.13C-3).
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
(5) Disconnect diagnostic tool MB991958.
Q: Is any DTC set?
YES : Repair the TCL. (Refer to P.13C-8, Diagnostic
Trouble Code Chart). Then go to Step 4.
NO : Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Using diagnostic tool MB991958, check TCL
actuator test item09: Engine TCL Drive.
To prevent damage to diagnostic tool MB991958, always
turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position
before connecting or disconnecting diagnostic tool
MB991958.
(1) Connect diagnostic tool MB991958 to the data link
connector. (Refer to P.13C-3).
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
The engine speed increases after the actuator test
because the actuator test continues for only three sec-
onds. Therefore, release the accelerator pedal immedi-
ately.
(3) Use diagnostic tool MB991958 to check the actuator test.
(Refer to P.13C-3).
Item 09: Engine TCL Drive.
When the accelerator pedal is depressed at the
same time that the button for actuator test item 09
displayed on diagnostic tool MB991958 is pressed,
the system prevents the engine speed from rising for
three seconds.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
(5) Disconnect diagnostic tool MB991958.
Q: Are the check results for actuator test item 09
satisfactory?
YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Replace the hydraulic unit (integrated with
ABS/TCL-ECU). (Refer to GROUP 35B
Hydraulic
Unit P.35B-93). Then go to Step 4.
STEP 3. Retest the system
Q: Does the TCL work normally?
YES : 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 Malfunction P.00-14).
NO : Replace the hydraulic unit (integrated with
ABS/TCL-ECU). (Refer to GROUP 35B
Hydraulic
Unit P.35B-93). Then go to Step 4.
STEP 4. Retest the system
Q: Does the TCL work normally?
YES : The procedure is complete.
NO : Return to Step 1.

VOLTAGE AND SIGNAL CHECK AT ABS-ECU
(A-02) USING OSCILLOSCOPE
NOTE: If the ABS-8 ECU or the active wheel speed
sensor are disconnected, or if the wiring is an open/
short circuit, the ABS 8 ECU will shut off power sup-
ply to the respective wheel speed sensor. All other
wheel speed sensors will operate normally. To
restore the power supply, the ignition switch must be
turned to the "OFF" position then to the "ON" position
again..
WHEEL SPEED SENSOR AIR GAP:
Sensor air gap: (0.2mm - 0.85mm).
.
Measure supply voltage for wheel speed sensor using an
oscilloscope.
(1) ABS-ECU must remain connected.
(2) Wheel speed sensors must emain connected
(3) Remove ABS connector protection cap to access terminal
location from the rear of connector for back-probing.
(4) Using probe (MB991222) , backprobe the wheel speed
sensor voltage supply circuit terminals (16, 9, 6 and 8) at
the ABS-ECU connector (A-02) individually.
(5) Connect oscilloscope (as per figure 1) shows, to the
appropriate terminal positions and check supply voltage
individually with scope.
