VC Output Circuit: Procedure
- CHECK MIL
- Check that the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illuminates when turning the power switch on (IG).
OK
MIL lights up.
NG → See step 2
OK → See step 11
- Check that the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illuminates when turning the power switch on (IG).
- CHECK CONNECTION BETWEEN TECHSTREAM AND ECM

- Disconnect the throttle position sensor connector.
- Disconnect the camshaft position sensor connector.
- Disconnect the manifold absolute pressure sensor connector.
- Disconnect the canister pump module connector.
- Disconnect the ECM connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition D4-5 (VC) or D27-88 (VCTA) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher D18-3 (VC) or D27-99 (VCV1) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher D3-3 (VC) or D27-72 (VCPM) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher R1-6 (VCC) or D27-113 (VCPP) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
