Engine Component Power Supply Relay, Checking
Special Tools And Workshop Equipment Required
- Multimeter.
- wiring diagrams.
Test requirements
- Fuse -SD 2- OK.
- The Engine Control Module (ECM) Power Supply Relay -J271- OK.
- The Ground (GND) connections at the engine and transmission OK.
- The battery voltage at least 12.5 V.
- The generator OK.
Test procedure
-- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to PRELIMINARY CHECK .
Start diagnosis
-- Using a Multimeter, check the following wiring connection for voltage.
| Engine Component Power Supply Relay -J757- socket | Measure to |
|---|---|
| 5 | Engine Ground (GND) |
Specified value: 12.5 V
If the specified value was not obtained:
-- Turn key off.
-- Check the Engine Component Power Supply Relay -J757- socket 5 to the Battery -(+)- positive terminal for an open circuit or short to Ground (GND).
-- Check the electrical harness connectors for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.
-- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.
If no malfunctions are found in the wiring:
-- Switch the engine on.
-- Using a Multimeter, check the following wiring connection for voltage.
| Engine Component Power Supply Relay -J757- socket | Measure to Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) Power Supply Relay -J271- |
|---|---|
| 3 | 1 |
Specified value: 12.5 V
-- Switch the engine off.
If the specified value was not obtained:
-- Check the Engine Component Power Supply Relay -J757- socket 3 to Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) Power Supply Relay -J271- socket 1 for an open circuit or short to Ground (GND).
-- Check the electrical harness connectors for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.
-- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.
If no malfunctions are found in the wiring:
Checking Ground (GND)
If the manufacturers test box is being used, perform the following step.
-- Install the test box.
If the manufacturers test box is not being used, perform the following step.
-- Remove the Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623-. Refer to appropriate service information.
-- Using a Multimeter --, check the following wiring connection for resistance.
| Engine Component Power Supply Relay -J757- socket | Engine Control Module (ECM) electrical harness connector T91 |
|---|---|
| 1 | 36 |
Specified value: 1.5 Ω.
If the specified value was not obtained:
-- Check the Engine Component Power Supply Relay -J757- socket 4/86 to the Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623- electrical harness connector T94 terminal 32 for an open circuit or a short to Battery (+).
-- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.
-- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.
If no malfunctions are found in the wiring and the voltage supply was OK:
-- Replace the Engine Component Power Supply Relay -J757- Refer to appropriate service information.
-- Perform a road test to verify repair.
If the fault does not return:
Repair complete, Generate readiness code. Refer to READINESS CODE .
If the fault does return and no malfunction is detected in the wiring and the voltage supply was OK:
-- Replace the Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623-. Refer to appropriate service information.
-- Assembly is performed in the reverse of the removal.
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 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 .
