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 .
  1. CHECK ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL RELAY  .
    1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
    2. Remove the electronic throttle control relay.
    3. Measure the resistance between electronic throttle control relay terminals.

      Terminals 

      No. 1 - No. 3:

    Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more?

    Yes:  Go to  2.

    No:  Replace the electronic throttle control relay. Ref. to FUEL INJECTION (FUEL SYSTEMS) (H4DOTC)>ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL RELAY .

  2. CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL RELAY (SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY)  .
    1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    2. Measure the voltage between M/B (electronic throttle control relay) terminal and engine ground.

      Terminals 

      No. 3 (+) - Engine ground (-):

    Is the voltage 10 V or more?

    Yes:  Repair the short circuit to power in the harness between ECM connector and M/B (electronic throttle control relay).

    No:  Go to  3.

  3. CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL RELAY (SHORT TO GROUND)  .
    1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
    2. Disconnect the connector from ECM.
    3. Measure the resistance between the ECM connector and engine ground.

      Connector & terminal 

      (B134) No. 60 - Engine ground:

    Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more?

    Yes:  Repair the poor contact of ECM connector.

    No:  Repair the short circuit to ground in the harness between ECM connector and M/B (electronic throttle control relay).
