Inspection Procedure

  1. CHECK THAT MIL ILLUMINATES 
    1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    2. Check the illumination of the MIL.

      Result 

      RESULT CHART

      Result Proceed to
      MIL remains Illuminated (Even after Ignition switch Is turned to ON and several seconds have passed, MIL still remains Illuminated) A
      MIL remains off (Does not illuminate at all) B
      MIL illuminates for several seconds, but turns off after engine is started C

      B: Go to step  5

      C: PROCEED TO NEXT SUSPECTED AREA SHOWN IN PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE  (See PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE )

      A: Go to Next Step 

  2. CHECK WHETHER MIL TURNS OFF 
    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    3. Turn the Techstream on.
    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.
    5. Check if any DTCs have been stored. Note any DTCs.
    6. Clear the DTCs (See DTC CHECK / CLEAR ).
    7. Check if the MIL goes off.

      Result Proceed to
      MIL goes off A
      MIL does not go off B

      B: Go to step 3 

      A: REPAIR CIRCUIT INDICATED BY OUTPUT DTC  (See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART )

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CHECK FOR SHORT IN WIRE HARNESS) 
    1. Disconnect the ECM connector.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    3. Check if the MIL is illuminated.

      Result Proceed to
      Engine starts A
      Engine does not start* B
      HINT:
      *: The Techstream cannot communicate with the ECM.

      B: GO TO VC OUTPUT CIRCUIT 

      A: Go to Next Step 

  6. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ECM TERMINAL VOLTAGE) 
    1. Disconnect the ECM connector.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
