Pinpoint Test D

  1. Check For VBAT Open To Coil  With ignition off and ECA connected, install EDIS diagnostic cable to BOB, EDIS module, and coil pack. Do not connect VR sensor tee. Use EDIS "6" overlay (if available). Connect EDIS diagnostic cable negative lead to battery. Set EDIS diagnostic cable box switch to "4/6 cylinder" position. Set DVOM on 20-volt DC scale. With KOEO, measure voltage between VBAT C (5) and BAT- (7) at BOB. If DC voltage is 10.5 volts or greater, go to next step. If voltage is less than 10.5, repair open VBAT to EDIS module circuit. Remove test equipment and reconnect all components. Clear Continuous Memory Codes and rerun Quick Test.
  2. Verify Vehicle Operating Mode  If vehicle will crank and start, go to step 4). If vehicle will not crank and start, go to next step.
  3. Check C1, C2, C3 In Sequence At Coil Pack During Cranking  With ignition off and ECA connected, set DVOM on 20-volt AC scale, crank engine and measure voltage between BAT- (7) and each coil C1C (3), C2C (6), C3C (10) at BOB. If stabilized AC voltage reading is less than .2 volt, replace coil pack. Remove all test equipment and reconnect all components. Clear Continuous Memory Codes and rerun Quick Test. If voltage is .2 volt or greater, go to step 5).
  4. Check C1, C2, C3 In Sequence At Coil Pack With Engine Running  With ignition off and ECA connected, set DVOM on 20-volt AC scale, crank engine and measure voltage between BAT- (7) and each coil C1C (3), C2C (6), C3C (10) at BOB. If stabilized AC voltage reading is less than 1.0 volt, replace coil pack. Remove all test equipment, and reconnect all components. Clear Continuous Memory Codes, and rerun Quick Test. If voltage is 1.0 volt or greater, go to next step.
  5. Check C1, C2, C3 In Sequence At Coil Pack - KOEO Coil Fault  With ignition off and ECA disconnected, set DVOM on 20-volt DC scale. With KOEO, measure voltage between BAT- (7) and each coil C1C (3), C2C (6), C3C (10) at BOB. If each DC voltage reading is 10.5 volts or greater, go to next step. If voltage is less than 10.5 volts, go to step 10).
  6. Check C1, C2, C3 In Sequence At EDIS Module - KOEO Coil Fault  With ignition off and ECA disconnected, set DVOM on 20-volt DC scale. With KOEO, measure voltage between BAT- (7) and each coil C1E (53), C2E (55), C3E (54) at BOB. If each DC voltage reading is 10.5 volts or greater, go to step 7). If voltage is less than 10.5 volts, repair open circuit. Remove all test equipment and reconnect all components. Clear Continuous Memory Codes and rerun Quick Test.
  7. Check C1, C2, C3 In Sequence At Coil Pack - Isolate Coil  With ignition off and ECA disconnected, disconnect coil pack from coil tee. Leave EDIS diagnostic cable connected to vehicle harness connector. Set DVOM on 20-volt DC scale. With KOEO, measure voltage between BAT- (7) and each coil C1C (3), C2C (6), C3C (10) at BOB. If each DC voltage reading is less than .5 volt, go to step 9). If voltage is .5 volt or greater, go to next step.
  8. Check C1, C2, C3 In Sequence At Coil Pack - Isolate EDIS Module  With ignition off and ECA disconnected, disconnect EDIS module from EDIS module tee. Leave EDIS diagnostic cable connected to vehicle harness connector. Set DVOM on 20-volt DC scale. With KOEO, measure voltage between BAT- (7) and each coil C1C (3), C2C (6), C3C (10) at BOB. If each DC voltage reading is less than .5 volt, replace EDIS module. Remove all test equipment and reconnect all components. Clear Continuous Memory Codes and rerun Quick Test. If voltage is .5 volt or greater, repair short circuit. Remove all test equipment and reconnect all components. Clear Continuous Memory Codes and rerun Quick Test.
  9. Check C1, C2, C3 Coil Primary  With ignition off and ECA disconnected, reconnect coil pack to coil tee. Set DVOM on 20-ohm scale. Measure resistance between VBAT C (5) and each coil C1C (3), C2C (6), C3C (10) at BOB. If each resistance reading is .8 ohms or greater, replace EDIS module. Remove all test equipment and reconnect all components. Clear Continuous Memory Codes and rerun Quick Test. If resistance reading is less than .8 ohm, replace coil pack. Remove all test equipment and reconnect all components. Clear Continuous Memory Codes and rerun Quick Test.
  10. Check C1, C2, C3 Short To Ground In Coil Pack  With ignition off and ECA disconnected, set DVOM on 2 k/ohm scale. Measure resistance between BAT- (7) and each coil C1C (3), C2C (6), C3C (10) at BOB. If each resistance reading is less than 1200 ohms, go to next step. If resistance reading is 1200 ohms or greater, replace coil pack. Remove all test equipment, and reconnect all components. Clear Continuous Memory Codes, and rerun Quick Test.
  11. Check C1, C2, C3 Short To Ground In Harness  With ignition off and ECA disconnected, disconnect EDIS coil tee from coil pack and vehicle harness connector. Disconnect EDIS module from EDIS module tee, leaving EDIS cable connected to vehicle harness connector. Set DVOM on 2 k/ohm scale. Measure resistance between BAT- (7) and each coil C1C (3), C2C (6), C3C (10) at BOB. If any resistance reading is less than 5 ohms, repair short. Remove all test equipment, and reconnect all components. Clear Continuous Memory Codes, and rerun Quick Test. If any resistance reading is 5 ohms or greater, replace EDIS module. Remove all test equipment, and reconnect all components. Clear Continuous Memory Codes, and rerun Quick Test.
