CIRCUIT OPERATION
The TCL automatically goes to ON, when the
ignition is turned to the "ON" position. To deacti-
vate the TCL, press the TCL switch. To reactivate
the TCL , press the TCL switch again.
ABS/TCL-ECU send the illumination signal of
"TCL OFF" indicator light and TCL work indicator
light to the combination meter via the CAN com-
munication.
ABS/TCL-ECU operates the "TCL OFF" indicator
light and the TCL work indicator light for three
seconds after the ignition switch is turned "ON"
position for bulb check.

TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL)13C-25
NOTE: If you press the TCL switch to deactivate the
TCL and then keep the TCL switch pressed for about
10 seconds, an error prevention function will auto-
matically reactivate the TCL. If you then still wish to
deactivate the TCL, press the TCL switch again to
deactivate it.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.

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 : Refer to P.13C-8, Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart.
Then go to Step 4.
NO : Go to Step 3.
STEP 3. 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.17-11).
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Check for Combination meter system diagnostic trouble
code. (Refer to GROUP 54A, Combination Meter Assembly
Diagnosis

TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL) DIAGNOSIS
TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL)13C-28
STEP 4. Retest the system
Q: Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position. Do the
"TCL OFF" indicator light and the TCL work indicator
light illuminate for three seconds, and then go out after
the engine starts?
YES : The procedure is complete.
NO : . Return to Step 1.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE 5: When the TCL Switch is Pushed On, TCL does not Cancel.
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.
.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
ABS/TCL-ECU terminal 21 is grounded every time
the TCL switch is pressed. ABS/TCL-ECU monitors
this operation state and turns the TCL ON or OFF.
.
COMMENT
The cause is probably an open-circuit in the TCL
switch circuit.
.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
Malfunction of the TCL switch.
Damaged harness or connector.
Malfunction of the ABS/TCL-ECU.
DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tools:
MB991223: Harness Set
MB991219: Inspection Test Harness

TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL) DIAGNOSIS
TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL)13C-29
STEP 1. Measure the resistance at ABS/TCL-ECU
connector A-02.
(1) Disconnect the ABS/TCL-ECU connector A-02.
(2) Measure the resistance at the ABS/TCL-ECU wiring
harness-side connector A-02 using the Inspection test
harness MB991219 (by inserting probe) and body ground.
NOTE: The special tool (Inspection test harness)
MB991219 for connector pin contact pressure should be
used. The test probe should never be forcibly inserted, as it
may cause a defective contact.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "OFF" position.
(4) Measure the resistance by probing ABS/TCL-ECU
connector A-02 terminal 21 (using inspection test harness
MB991219) and ground.
NOTE: The special tool (Inspection test harness)
MB991219 for connector pin contact pressure should be
used. The test probe should never be forcibly inserted, as it
may cause a defective contact.
When the TCL switch is not pressed, the resistance
should indicate an open circuit (more than 2 ohms).
When the TCL switch is pressed, the resistance should
measure 2 ohms or less.
(5) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
(6) Disconnect inspection test harness MB991219.
(7) Connect the ABS/TCL-ECU connector A-02.
Q: Is the resistance value more than 2 ohms when the TCL
switch is not pressed, and is the resistance value less
than 2 ohms when the TCL switch is pressed?
YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Go to Step 2.

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.

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.

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.The following items can be read by the diagnostic
tool from the ABS/TCL-ECU input data. (Refer to
P.13C-3).
NOTE: Since the TCL is controlled with the same ABS/TCL-ECU used to control the ABS, the stoplight switch
