Diagnostic Procedure

  1. INSPECTION START 

    Turn ignition switch to START.

    Is any cylinder ignited? 

    Yes or No

    Yes: GO TO 2.

    No: GO TO  3.

  2. CHECK OVERALL FUNCTION 

    With CONSULT-II 

    1. Start engine.
    2. Perform "POWER BALANCE" in "ACTIVE TEST" mode with CONSULT-II.
    3. Make sure that each circuit produces a momentary engine speed drop.

  4. DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART 

    Check the following.

    • Harness connectors E2, F32
    • IPDM E/R connector E119
    • 15A fuse
    • Harness for open or short between injector and fuse

      : Repair harness or connectors.

  5. CHECK INJECTOR OUTPUT SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT 
    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect ECM harness connector.
    3. Check harness continuity between injector terminal 2 and ECM terminals 21, 22, 23, 40, 41, 42, 44, 63.

      Refer to Wiring Diagram.

      Continuity should exist. 

    4. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.

    OK or NG

    OK: GO TO 6.

    NG: Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.

  6. CHECK INJECTOR 

    Refer to COMPONENT INSPECTION .

    OK or NG
