- Before replacing the ECU, ensure that the communication circuit is normal.
- When diagnostic trouble code U1417 is set in WCM, the diagnostic trouble code may also be set in ETACS-ECU. When the diagnostic trouble code is set in ETACS-ECU, carry out the diagnosis of the diagnostic trouble code for ETACS-ECU first.
