SYMPTOM PROCEDURES
SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-273
INSPECTION PROCEDURE H-5: Headlamp and Taillamp: Headlamps do not illuminate when the
lighting switch is at "TAIL," and "PASSING" position, but illuminate at low-beam when the switch is at
"HEAD" position. At this position, the headlamps cannot be changed to high beam by operating the
dimmer switch.
NOTE: This troubleshooting procedure requires the
use of Diagnostic Tool MB991958 and SWS monitor
kit MB991813. For details on how to use the SWS
monitor, refer to "How to connect SWS monitor
P.54B-13."
.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
If the headlamps illuminate at low-beam regardless
of the lighting switch positions, the headlamp opera-
tion is in fail-safe mode.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE J-1: Fog Light: Fog lamps do not illuminate when the fog lamp switch is
turned on.
NOTE: This troubleshooting procedure requires the
use of Diagnostic Tool MB991958 and SWS monitor
kit MB991813. For details on how to use the SWS

.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
The ETACS-ECU sends a fog lamp illumination
request signal ("LAMP ON" signal) to the
front-ECU when the fog lamp switch is turned on
while the headlamps are illuminating at low
beam.
Then the front-ECU switches on its relay to illumi-
nate the fog lamps.
.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
If the headlamps illuminate at low beam, the fog
lamp relay, the fog lamp switch, the front-ECU or the
ETACS-ECU may be defective.

INTERIOR LAMP
GENERAL DESCRIPTION CONCERNING THE INTERIOR LAMPM1549021800236
Refer to circuit diagrams GROUP-90
Refer to configuration diagrams GROUP-80The following ECUs affect the functions and control
of the interior lamps.
Interior lamp control function
The ETACS-ECU controls the interior lamps by turn-
ing them on and off in the following way:
When a door is opened with the ignition switch
off, the interior lamps up to a luminance of 100
percent. When a door is closed, the interior lamps
dims at a luminance of 65 percent, and goes off
30 seconds later. However if the ignition switch is
turned ON or if a door is locked while the interior
lamps is dimming, the dome lamp will go off at
that point.
When a door is opened with the ignition switch
ON, the interior lamps up at a luminance of 100
percent. When a door is closed, the interior lamps
go off.
When the ignition key is removed with all doors
closed, the interior lamps up at a luminance of
100 percent, and goes off 30 seconds later. How-
ever if the ignition key is inserted again or if a
door is locked while the interior lamps is lighting,
the interior lamps will go off at that point.
To check keyless entry operations more easily,
the interior lamps is flashed once when the doors
are locked. When the doors are unlocked, the
interior lamps at a luminance of 100 percent, and
go off 15 seconds later.
NOTE: The dimmer function can be customised on
vehicles equipped with a multi center display (middle
grade type). Refer to P.54B-486.
NOTE: The dotted lines indicate that lighting mode
when the ignition switch is turned ON, door is locked,
or any door is opened during the timer illumination
time. FUNCTION CONTROL ECU
