Signal Circuit Inspection

■ Check voltage 

  1. IG "OFF". Disconnect ETC Motor & TPS connector.
  2. IG "ON".
  3. Measure voltage between TPS1 signal terminal of ETC Motor & TPS harness connector and chassis ground.

    Specification:  Approx. 5V

  4. Is the measured voltage within specification?

    YES 

    • Go to "Check open in harness" as follows.

    NO 

    • Go to "Check short to battery in harness" below.

■ Check open in harness 

  1. IG "OFF". Disconnect ETC Motor & TPS connector and PCM connector.
  2. Measure resistance between TPS1 signal terminal of ETC Motor & TPS harness connector and TPS1 signal terminal of PCM harness connector.

    Specification:  Below 1Ω

  3. Is the measured resistance within specification?

    YES 

    NO 

■ Check short to battery in harness 

  1. IG "OFF". Disconnect ETC Motor & TPS connector and PCM connector.
  2. Measure resistance between TPS1 signal and TPS power terminals of ETC Motor & TPS harness connector. (Measurement "A")
  3. Measure resistance between TPS1 signal and ETC motor (+) terminals of ETC Motor & TPS harness connector. (Measurement "B")
  4. Measure resistance between TPS1 signal and ETC motor (-) terminals of ETC Motor & TPS harness connector. (Measurement "B")

    Specification:  Infinite

  5. Is the measured resistance within specification?

    YES 

    NO
