Diagnostic Procedure

  1. INSPECTION START 

    Turn ignition switch to START.

    Is any cylinder ignited? 

    Yes or No 

    1. Yes (With CONSULT-II): GO TO 2.
    2. Yes (Without CONSULT-II): GO TO  3.
    3. 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.

    OK or NG 

    1. OK: INSPECTION END 
    2. NG: GO TO 3.

    3. Turn ignition switch ON.
    4. Check voltage between the following;

      harness connector F21 terminal 5 and ground,

      harness connector F41 terminal 5 and ground

      1. Voltage: Battery voltage

    5. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    6. Disconnect ECM harness connector.
    7. Check harness continuity between the following terminals.
      HARNESS CONTINUITY CHECKING TERMINALS REFERENCE

      Cylinder Harness connector terminal ECM terminal
      1 F21terminal3 23
      3 F21 terminal2 22
      5 F21 terminal1 21
      7 F21 terminal6 44
      2 F41 terminal3 42
      4 F41 terminal2 41
      6 F41 terminal1 40
      8 F41 terminal6 63
      1. Continuity should exist. 
    8. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.

    OK or NG 

    1. OK: GO TO  5
    2. NG: GO TO 4.
  4. DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART 

    Check the following.

    • Harness connectors E32, F32
    • Harness connectors F21, F201
    • Harness connectors F41, F221
    • Fuse block (J/B) No. 1 connector M1
    • Fuse block (J/B) No. 2 connectors M143, E215
    • 15A fuse
    • Harness for open or short between harness connector F21 and fuse
    • Harness for open or short between harness connector F41 and fuse
    • Harness for open or short between harness connector F21 and ECM
    • Harness for open or short between harness connector F41 and ECM
      1. Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.
  5. CHECK FUNCTION OF INJECTOR-II 

    Provide battery voltage between the following terminals, and then interrupt it. Listen to each injector operating sound.

      1. Continuity should exist. 

    OK or NG 

    1. OK: GO TO 7
    2. NG: Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.
  7. CHECK INJECTOR 

    Refer to "COMPONENT INSPECTION ".

    OK or NG 

    1. OK: GO TO 8.
    2. NG: Replace injector
  8. CHECK INTERMITTENT INCIDENT 

    Refer to "TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR INTERMITTENT INCIDENT ".
