TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
If neither normal nor abnormal DTC is set, the headlight automatic leveling-ECU, the headlight automatic leveling-ECU power supply, wiring harness or connectors of ground, or wiring harness and connectors between the headlight automatic leveling-ECU and date link connector may have a problem.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
- Malfunction of the headlight automatic leveling-ECU
- The wiring harness or connectors may have loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:
- MB992006: Extra fine probe
- MB991223: Harness set

STEP 1. Check headlight automatic leveling-ECU connector C-110 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.

Q: Is headlight automatic leveling-ECU connector C-110 in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 2.

NO : Repair the damaged parts.

STEP 2. Resistance measurement at headlight automatic leveling-ECU connector C-110.

1. Disconnect the connector, and measure the resistance at the wiring harness-side connector.




2. Measure the resistance between headlight automatic leveling-ECU connector C-110 (terminal No. 14) and body ground.

The measured value should be continuity exists (2 ohms or less).

Q: Does the measured resistance value correspond with this range?

YES : Go to Step 4.

NO : Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Check the wiring harness between headlight automatic leveling-ECU connector C-110 (terminal No. 14) and body ground.

Q: Is the wiring harness between headlight automatic leveling-ECU connector C-110 (terminal No. 14) and body ground. in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 4.

NO : Repair the wiring harness.

STEP 4. Voltage measurement at the C-110 headlight automatic leveling-ECU connector.

1. Disconnect the connector, and measure at the wiring harness-side connector.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.




3. Voltage between headlight automatic leveling-ECU connector (terminal No. 1) and body ground.

The voltage should measure approximately 12 volts (battery positive voltage).

Q: Does the voltage measure battery voltage?

YES : Go to Step 6.

NO : Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Check the wiring harness between headlight automatic leveling-ECU connector C-110 (terminal No. 1) and fusible link (34).

NOTE: Before the wiring harness check, check the ETACS-ECU connectors C-309 and C-317, and the intermittent connector C-33. Then, repair them if necessary.

Q: Is the wiring harness between headlight automatic leveling-ECU connector C-110 (terminal No. 1) and the fusible link (34) in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 6.

NO : Repair the wiring harness.

STEP 6. Check data link connector C-125 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.

Q: Is data link connector C-125 in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 7.

NO : Repair the damaged parts.

STEP 7. Check the wiring harness between headlight automatic leveling-ECU connector C-110 (terminal No. 5/7) and data link connector C-125 (terminal No. 1/10).

NOTE: Before the wiring harness check, check the intermittent connector C-33 and C-34. Then, repair them if necessary.

Q: Is the wiring harness between headlight automatic leveling-ECU connector C-110 (terminal No. 5/7) and data link connector C-125 (terminal No. 1/10) in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 8.

NO : Repair the wiring harness.

STEP 8. Retest the system.

Check if DTC is set.

Q: Is the DTC set?

YES : Refer to diagnostic trouble code chart. Diagnostic Trouble Code Descriptions

NO : Replace the headlight automatic leveling-ECU.
