ECM Problem Inspection Procedure
- TEST ECM GROUND CIRCUIT: Measure the voltage drop between ECM and chassis ground using the backside of ECM harness connector. The ECM harness should be connected to the ECM and the ECM must be powered up. If the problem is found, repair it.
Specification: below 1Ω
- TEST ECM CONNECTOR: Disconnect the ECM connector and visually check the ground terminals on ECM side and harness side for bent pins or poor contact pressure. If the problem is found, repair it.
- If problem is not found in Step 1 and 2, the ECM could be faulty. If so, replace the ECM with a new one, and then check the vehicle again. If the vehicle operates normally then the problem was likely with the ECM.
- RE-TEST THE ORIGINAL ECM : Install the original ECM (may be broken) into a known-good vehicle and check the vehicle. If the problem occurs again, replace the original ECM with a new one. If problem does not occur, this is intermittent problem (Refer to "Intermittent Problem Inspection Procedure" in BASIC INSPECTION PROCEDURE .
