Diagnostic Test Procedure
NOTE:
Before beginning this test procedure, make sure the throttle motor power relay contacts are not stuck on.
- Disconnect negative battery cable. Remove the throttle motor power relay. Disconnect ECM connector EM82. Measure resistance between the throttle motor power relay connector terminal No. 2 and ECM harness connector EM82 terminal No. 6. Is resistance greater than 5 ohms? If yes, repair high resistance between the throttle motor power relay connector terminal No. 2 and ECM harness connector EM82 terminal No. 6. If no, go to next step.
- Reconnect negative battery cable. Turn ignition on. Measure voltage between the throttle motor power relay connector terminal No. 2 and ground. Is voltage greater than 1 volt? If yes, repair short to voltage. If no, go to next step.
- Turn ignition off. Measure resistance between the throttle motor power relay connector terminal No. 2 and ground. Is resistance less than 10,000 ohms? If yes, repair short to ground. If no, go to next step.
- Disconnect ECM connector EM80. Measure voltage between the throttle motor power relay connector terminal No. 5 and ground. Is voltage greater than 1 volt? If yes, repair short to voltage. If no, clear codes and retest system. If DTC resets, possible ECM failure.
