CAUTION:

Use the check board when measuring the ECM terminal voltage and resistance. Ref. to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DOTC)>GENERAL DESCRIPTION>PREPARATION TOOL>HOW TO USE CHECK BOARD

NOTE:

After the faulty parts are repaired or replaced, perform the final check in Basic Diagnostic Procedure. Ref. to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DOTC)>BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE>PROCEDURE

CHECK OUTPUT SIGNAL OF ECM .
1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2. Measure the voltage between ECM connector and engine ground.
  Connector & terminal
  
  (E51) No. 14 (+) - Engine ground (-):
Is the voltage 10 V or more?

Yes : Go to 3.

No : Go to 2.
CHECK INTAKE OIL CONTROL SOLENOID RH POWER SUPPLY .
Measure the voltage between intake oil control solenoid RH connector and engine ground.

Connector & terminal

(E105) No. 1 (+) - Engine ground (-):

Is the voltage 10 V or more?

Yes : Go to 4.

No : Repair the following item.
- Open circuit or short circuit to ground in harness between M/B and intake oil control solenoid RH connector
- Blown out of fuse
- Poor contact of coupling connector
- Poor contact of J/C
CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND INTAKE OIL CONTROL SOLENOID CONNECTOR RH (SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY) .
1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2. Disconnect the connector from ECM.
3. Disconnect the connector from the intake oil control solenoid RH.
4. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
5. Measure the voltage between ECM connector and engine ground.
  Connector & terminal
  
  (E51) No. 14 (+) - Engine ground (-):
Is the voltage 10 V or more?

Yes : Repair the short circuit to power supply in harness between ECM connector and intake oil control solenoid RH connector.

No : Go to 6.
CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND INTAKE OIL CONTROL SOLENOID RH CONNECTOR (SHORT TO GROUND) .
1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2. Disconnect the connector from ECM.
3. Disconnect the connector from the intake oil control solenoid RH.
4. Measure the resistance between intake oil control solenoid RH connector and engine ground.
  Connector & terminal
  
  (E105) No. 2 - Engine ground:
Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more?

Yes : Go to 5.

No : Repair the short circuit to ground in harness between ECM connector and intake oil control solenoid RH connector.
CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND INTAKE OIL CONTROL SOLENOID RH CONNECTOR (OPEN) .
Measure the resistance of harness between ECM connector and intake oil control solenoid RH connector.

Connector & terminal

(E51) No. 14 - (E105) No. 2:

Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?

Yes : Go to 6.

No : Repair the open circuit in harness between ECM connector and intake oil control solenoid RH connector.
CHECK INTAKE OIL CONTROL SOLENOID RH .
Check the intake oil control solenoid RH. Ref. to FUEL INJECTION (FUEL SYSTEMS) (H4DOTC)>OIL CONTROL SOLENOID>INSPECTION

Is the check result OK?

Yes : Repair the poor contact of intake oil control solenoid RH connector.

No : Replace the intake oil control solenoid RH. Ref. to FUEL INJECTION (FUEL SYSTEMS) (H4DOTC)>OIL CONTROL SOLENOID
