Q. Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 2.
Repair the defective connector.

STEP 2. Voltage measurement at the D-419 ETACS-ECU connector.
(1)Remove the ETACS-ECU, and measure at the junction block side.
(2)Ignition switch: ACC position
(3)Voltage between D-419 ETACS-ECU connector terminal No.4 and body earth
OK: System voltage

Q. Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 4.
Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Check the wiring harness between D-419 ETACS-ECU connector terminal No.4 and the ignition switch (ACC).
