Repair Procedures: Inspection
- The engine control system can be more quickly diagnosed for problems by using the KDS (Refer to "2.5T (VIN F)
").
- Self diagnosis: Checking failure and Diagnosis Trouble Code (DTC)
- Data analysis: Checking the system input/output data state
- Actuation test: Checking the system operation condition
- Additional function: Controlling other features including system option setting and Zero-Adjustment
Inspection component
- Test ECM ground circuit: Measure resistance between ECM and chassis ground using the backside of ECM harness connector as ECM side check point. 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, make sure there were no DTC's before swapping the ECM with a new one, and then check the vehicle again. If DTC's were found, examine this first before swapping 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.
