Code No. C2104 Faulty valve power supply circuit

caution

If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, an incorrect diagnosis code may be set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN bus lines (Refer to GROUP 54C, Trouble code diagnosis ).
Whenever ECU is replaced, ensure that the CAN bus lines are normal.
When the hydraulic unit (integrated with ASC-ECU) is replaced, always carry out the calibration of the steering wheel sensor, the G and yaw rate sensor and brake fluid pressure sensor (Refer to , and ).

OPERATION

ASC-ECU contains the power supply circuit (terminal No.32) for the solenoid valve. The solenoid valve is energised by the valve relay, which is incorporated in ASC-ECU.
The valve relay, which is incorporated in ASC-ECU, is always energising the solenoid valve unless the initial check is in progress when the ignition switch is turned on, or the recurrent system check is in progress.

DIAGNOSIS CODE SET CONDITIONS

This diagnosis code will be set when the solenoid valve supply voltage is not within the standard value.

PROBABLE CAUSES

Current trouble

Fusible link malfunction
Damaged wiring harness and connectors
Abnormality in battery or alternator
ASC-ECU malfunction

Past trouble

Carry out diagnosis with particular emphasis on wiring harness and connector failures between the power supply circuit (terminal No.32) to ASC-ECU solenoid valve or earth circuit (terminal No.16 and 47). For diagnosis procedures, refer to How to treat past trouble (GROUP 00 - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. M.U.T.-III CAN bus diagnosis

Use M.U.T.-III to diagnose the CAN bus lines.

Q. Is the check result normal?

	Go to Step 3.

	Repair the CAN bus lines (Refer to GROUP 54C - CAN Bus Diagnosis table ). On completion, go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Diagnosis code recheck after resetting CAN bus lines

Q. Is the diagnosis code No. C2104 set?

	Go to Step 3.

	This diagnosis is complete.

STEP 3. Battery check

Refer to GROUP 54A - Battery Test

Q. Is the battery in good condition?

	Go to Step 4.

	Replace the battery. Then go to Step 11.

STEP 4. Charging system check

Refer to GROUP 16 - Charging System

<4A9>,

<4B1>,

<BWC>,

<4B1-T/C>.

Q. Is the charging system in good condition?

	Go to Step 5.

	Repair or replace the charging system component(s). Then go to Step 11.

STEP 5. Connector check: A-58 ASC-ECU connector

Q. Is the check result normal?

	Go to Step 6.

	NO : Repair the defective connector. Then go to Step 11.

STEP 6. Fusible link check: Check the fusible link No.27.

Visually check for open circuit in the fusible link No.27.

Q. Is the check result normal?

	Go to Step 8.

	Go to Step 7.

STEP 7. Resistance measurement at A-58 ASC-ECU connector

(1)Disconnect the ASC-ECU connector, connect special tool ASC check harness (MB991997) to the harness-side connector, and then measure the resistance at the special tool connector side.

note

Do not connect the special tool ASC check harness (MB991997) to ASC-ECU.

(2)Disconnect the fusible link No.27.
(3)Resistance between the terminal No.32 and the body earth.
OK: No continuity

Q. Is the check result normal?

Replace the fusible link No.27. Then go to Step 11.

The short circuit may be present in the power supply circuit. Repair the wiring harness between the A-58 ASC-ECU connector terminal No.32 and the fusible link No.27, and then replace the fusible link No.27. Then go to Step 11.

STEP 8. Voltage measurement at the A-58 ASC-ECU connector

(1)Disconnect the ASC-ECU connector, connect special tool ASC check harness (MB991997) to the harness-side connector, and then measure the voltage at the special tool connector side.

note

Do not connect the special tool ASC check harness (MB991997) to ASC-ECU.

(2)Measure the voltage between the terminal No.32 and the body earth.
OK: Approximately battery voltage

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 9.

The open circuit may be present in the power supply circuit. Repair the wiring harness between the A-58 ASC-ECU connector terminal No.32 and the fusible link No.27. Then go to Step 11.

STEP 9. Resistance measurement at A-58 ASC-ECU connector

(1)Disconnect the ASC-ECU connector, connect special tool ASC check harness (MB991997) to the harness-side connector, and then measure the resistance at the special tool connector side.

note

Do not connect the special tool ASC check harness (MB991997) to ASC-ECU.

(2)Resistance between the terminal No.16 and the body earth, and between the terminal No.47 and the body earth.
OK: Continuity exists (2 Ω or less)

Q. Is the check result normal?

Go to Step 10.

An open circuit may be present in the earth circuit. Repair the wiring harness between the A-58 ASC-ECU connector terminal No.16 and the body earth, and between the A-58 ASC-ECU connector terminal No.47 and the body earth. Then go to Step 11.

STEP 10. Check whether the diagnosis code is reset.

Q. Is the diagnosis code No.C2104 set?

	Replace the hydraulic unit (ASC-ECU) (Refer to ). Then go to Step 11.

	Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ).

STEP 11. Check whether the diagnosis code is reset.

Q. Is diagnosis code No.C2104 set?

	Return to Step 1.

	This diagnosis is complete.
