J221 between pins 1 & 4 (on the
Upper Connectors Bracket).The
voltage should change from 0Vdc to
130Vdc when you press the Cradle
Release button.
Check the cables in the path from the
ETC I/F J7 to the Upper Connectors
Bracket including the ETC Card
PNs:

change between 0 to
24 Vdc?
no
The malfanction is in the
SSR or the connection
between the SSR and
the J18 Connector
