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).

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.

(8) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(9) Turn wheel by hand at approximately 1 revolution per
second (r/sec) or drive on brake dynamometer at 5km/h.
The measurement reading of the active wheel speed sen-
sors on the oscilloscope should correspond to figure 3
below.
NOTE: If the oscilloscope signal shape is correct and wheel
sensor air gap is within specification, but the voltage values are
either higher or lower as shown in the table below, the wheel
speed sensor must be changed.

ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM (TCL)13C-48
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 sec-
onds.
4. Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
5. Disconnect diagnostic tool MB991958.
6. If defective, repair it. (Refer to P.13C-34, TCL diagnosis

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION23A-8
FEATURES
OPTIMUM SHIFT CONTROL
1. The shift patterns found satisfying by the typical driver for all
ranges of driving are stored in the computer's memory. The
computer uses this data to analyze road conditions and the
driver's style of operation, and then outputs the optimal shift
patterns stored in its memory to best match the conditions.
2. We introduce the latest control technologies with an innova-
tive new algorithm called the "neural network" that works to
imitate the decision-making processes of the human brain.
The neural network links a wide variety of input data regard-
ing road and operating conditions, and instantly makes
accurate shift control decisions.
.
ADAPTIVE SHIFT CONTROL
1. The computer learns the driving habits and pref-
erences of each individual driver by processing
driving data on engine output, tyre load, foot
brake operation, etc. It then uses this data to
adjust shift timing to best suit the driver's style.2. If the computer determines from the driving pat-
terns that the driver is one who enjoys a relaxed,
unhurried style, it adjusts timing to execute
up-shifts at a lower engine speed to provide a
smooth, quiet ride. On the other hand, if the com-
puter determines the driver to prefer a sporty ride,
it adjusts timing to shift up at a higher engine
speed to provide more powerful response.
