Leak Detection Pump, Checking
Special tools and workshop equipment required
- Multimeter.
- Wiring diagram.
Test requirements
- The Leak Detection Pump (LDP) -V144- fuse OK.
- The ignition switched off.
The voltage for the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) --V144-- is supplied via the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) Power Supply Relay -J271-.
Test procedure
-- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to GENERAL DIAGNOSIS .
Start diagnosis
-- Remove the left rear wheel housing liner. Refer to Repair information.
-- Disconnect the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) -V144- electrical harness connector -3-.
Checking internal resistance
-- Using a Multimeter --, check the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) -V144- for resistance as follows:
| Leak Detection Pump (LDP) -V144- electrical connector terminals | Specified value |
|---|---|
| -1- + -3- | 640 to 720 Ω |
| -2- + -3- | 15 to 17 Ω |
If the specifications was not obtained:
-- Replace the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) --V144--. Refer to Repair information.
If the specified values are obtained:
Checking voltage supply
-- Check the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) --V144-- for voltage.
-- Using a Multimeter --, check the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) --V144-- electrical harness connector terminal 3 to Ground (GND) for voltage.
| Leak Detection Pump (LDP) --V144-- electrical harness connector terminal | Measure to |
|---|---|
| -3- | Engine Ground (GND) |
-- Operate the starter briefly.
Specified value: battery voltage.
-- Switch the ignition off.
If the specified value was not obtained:
If the manufacturers test box is being used. Perform the following step.
-- Install the test box. Refer to Repair information.
If the manufacturers test box is not being used. Perform the following step.
-- Remove the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J220-. Refer to MOTRONIC ENGINE CONTROL MODULE, REPLACING .
-- Using a Multimeter --, check the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) --V144-- electrical harness connector terminal 3 to the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) Power Supply Relay -J271- terminal 2/87 for an open circuit according to wiring diagram.
Specified value: Wire resistance 1.5 Ω.
If the specification was not obtained:
-- Check the wiring for a short circuit to Battery positive (+) or an open circuit.
-- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, lose or broken terminals.
-- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.
If no malfunction is detected in the wiring and if the voltage supply is OK:
Checking output wiring
-- Using a Multimeter --, check the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) --V144-- electrical connector terminal 1 to Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J220- electrical connector T121 terminal 25 for an open circuit.
-- Using a Multimeter --, check the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) --V144-- electrical connector terminal 2 to Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J220- electrical connector T121 terminal 94 for an open circuit.
| Leak Detection Pump (LDP) --V144-- electrical connector terminals | Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J220- electrical connector T121 terminals or test box socket |
|---|---|
| -1- | 25 |
| -2- | 80 |
Specified value: 1.5 Ω.
If the specification is not obtained:
-- Check the wiring for a short circuit to Battery positive (+) or an open circuit.
-- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, lose or broken terminals.
-- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.
If no malfunction is found in wiring:
-- Replace the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J220-. Refer to MOTRONIC ENGINE CONTROL MODULE, REPLACING .
Assembly is performed in the reverse order of the removal, note the following:
-- Install the left rear wheel housing liner Refer to Repair information.
Final procedures
After repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:
- Check the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 03 - READ DTC MEMORY .
- If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 04 - ERASE DTC MEMORY .
- If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to READINESS CODE .
-- End of diagnosis.
