Diagnostic Procedure

  1. INSPECTION START 

    Turn ignition switch to START.

    Is any cylinder ignited? 

    Yes or No

    1. Yes (With CONSULT-II): GO TO 2.
    2. Yes (without CONSULT-II): GO TO  3 .
    3. No: GO TO  6 .
  2. CHECK OVERALL FUNCTION 

    With CONSULT-II 

    1. Start engine.
    2. Perform "POWER BALANCE" in "ACTIVE TEST" mode with CONSULT-II.
    3. Make sure that each circuit produces a momentary engine speed drop.

    OK or NG

    1. OK: INSPECTION END 
    2. NG: GO TO  6 .
  3. CHECK FUNCTION OF INJECTOR-I 

    With out CONSULT-II

    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect harness connector F50, F251
    3. Turn ignition switch ON.

    4. Check voltage between harness connector F50 terminal 5 and ground with CONSULT-II or tester.
      1. Voltage: Battery voltage 
    5. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    6. Disconnect ECM harness connector.
    7. Check harness continuity between harness connector F50 and ECM as follows.

      Refer to WIRING DIAGRAM  .

      1. Continuity should exist. 
    8. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.

    OK or NG

    1. OK: GO TO  5 .
    2. NG: GO TO 4.
  4. DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART 

    Check the following.

    • Harness connectors M82, F102
    • Harness connectors F50, F251
    • Fuse block (J/B) connector M4
    • 15A fuse
    • Harness for open or short between harness connector F50 and fuse
    • Harness for open or short between harness connector F50 and ECM
      1. : Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.
  5. CHECK FUNCTION OF INJECTOR-II 

    Provide battery voltage between harness connector F251 as follows and then interrupt it. Listen to each injector operating sound.
