INSPECTION PROCEDURE G-2: Windshield Wiper and Washer: The windshield wipers do not work
when the windshield wiper switch is at "INT" or "MIST" position or the windshield washer switch is at
"ON" position. However, the wipers work at low speed when the windshield wiper switch is at "LO" or
"HI."
NOTE: This troubleshooting procedure requires use
of Diagnostic Tool MB991958 and SWS monitor kit
MB991813. For details on how to use the SWS mon-
itor, refer to "How to connect SWS monitor
P.54B-13."
.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
This system may be at fail-safe mode as the SWS
communication line is defective.
If the system cannot receive any signal from the col-
umn switch (windshield wiper and washer switch)
due to a open circuit in the SWS communication line
or other reasons, the system will enter the fail-safe
mode when the ignition switch is at the "ACC" posi-
tion.

FLASHER TIMER
GENERAL DESCRIPTION CONCERNING THE FLASHER TIMERM1549023600238
Refer to circuit diagrams GROUP-90
Refer to configuration diagrams GROUP-80The following ECUs affect the functions and control
of the flasher timer.
FLASHER TIMER FUNCTION
.
TURN-SIGNAL LAMP
The turn-signal lamp output (flashing signal) is turned ON when
the ignition switch is ON and the turn-signal lamp switch is ON
(LH or RH). If the front turn-signal lamp or rear turn-signal lamp
bulb has burned out, the flashing speed increases to indicate
that the bulb has burned out.
NOTE: If LH or RH side turn signal lamp bulbs have burned
out, the flashing speed will remain the same.
.
TURN-SIGNAL INDICATORS
At the same time that the turn-signal lamps are illuminated, the
ETACS-ECU sends a signal to illuminate the turn-signal lamp
indicator via the CAN bus line. The combination meter receives
the transmitted signal and turns the turn-signal lamp indicator
on and off.
.
HAZARD WARNING LAMP
Detects the signal where the hazard warning lamp switch input
changes from OFF to ON, and reverse the flashing state
according to this signal. The hazard warning lamps toggle on
and off whenever the hazard warning lamp switch is operated.
NOTE: The hazard warning lamp switch is a push-return type
toggle switch. FUNCTION CONTROL ECU
Turn-signal lamp ETACS-ECU, column switch
Turn-signal indicators ETACS-ECU, column switch

INSPECTION PROCEDURE I-1: Flasher Timer: Turn-signal lamps do not flash when the turn-signal
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
monitor, refer to "How to connect SWS monitor
P.54B-13."
.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
The turn-signal lamp switch sends a signal
through the column-ECU (incorporated in the col-
umn switch) to the ETACS-ECU. If the col-
umn-ECU sends a turn-signal lamp switch "ON"
signal to the ETACS-ECU, the ETACS-ECU turns
on the flasher timer (incorporated in the
ETACS-ECU), thus causing the turn-signal lamps
to flash.
The ETACS-ECU operates the turn-signal lamps
according to the following signals:
Ignition switch (IG1): ON
Turn-signal lamp switch: ON
The ETACS-ECU flashes the turn-signal lamps
under the following conditions:
Ignition key: "ON" position
Turn-signal lamp switch: Left or right turn-sig-
nal position
.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
If the turn-signal lamps do not flash normally, the
input circuits from the switches described in "CIR-
CUIT OPERATION" or the ETACS-ECU may be
defective. If the hazard warning lamps do not flash,
the power supply line to the ETACS-ECU (dedicated
to the turn-signal lamps) may be defective.

YES : Replace the ETACS-ECU. Verify that the turn-signal
lamps illuminate normally.
NO : Refer to Inspection Procedure M-5 "ETACS-ECU
does not receive any signal from the turn-signal lamp
switch P.54B-420."
INSPECTION PROCEDURE I-2: Flasher Timer: Hazard warning lamps do not flash when the hazard
warning lamp switch is turned on.

CIRCUIT OPERATION
If the ETACS-ECU receives "ON" signal from the
hazard warning lamp switch, the ETACS-ECU turns
on the flasher timer (incorporated in the
