Inspection Procedure

HINT:

This troubleshooting procedure is based on the premise that the engine is started. If the engine is not started, proceed to the problem symptoms table (see PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE ).

  1. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST BY TECHSTREAM (OPERATE C/OPN RELAY) 
    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the tester ON.
    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Control the Fuel Pump / Speed.
    4. Check the relay operation while operating it using the tester.

    OK: 

    Operating noise can be heard from the relay. 

    OK:  Go to step  6

    NG: Go to next step 

  2. INSPECT FUSE (IGN) 
    1. Remove the IGN fuse from the engine room No. 1 relay block.
    2. Measure the resistance of the fuse.

    Standard resistance: 

    Below 1 Ω 

    NG: REPLACE FUSE

    OK: Go to next step 

  3. INSPECT CIRCUIT OPENING RELAY (Marking: CIR OPN) 
    1. Remove the circuit opening relay from the engine room No. 2 relay block.
    2. Measure the resistance of the relay.

    Standard resistance: 

    Below 1 Ω. 

    NG: REPLACE CIRCUIT OPENING RELAY

    OK: Go to next step 

  4. INSPECT IG2 RELAY (Marking: IG2) 
    1. Remove the IG2 relay from the engine room No. 1 relay block.
    2. Measure the resistance of the relay.

    Standard resistance 

    TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITION CHART

    Tester Connection Specified Condition
    3-5 10 kΩ or higher
    3-5 Below 1 Ω (when battery voltage is applied to terminals 1 and 2)

    NG: REPLACE IG2 RELAY 

    OK: Go to next step 

  5. CHECK ECM (FC VOLTAGE) 
    1. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    2. Measure the voltage of the ECM connector.

    Standard voltage 

    TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITION CHART

    Tester Connection Specified Condition
    E6-14 (FC) - Body ground 9 to 14 V

    NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR

    OK: REPLACE ECM 

  6. INSPECT FUEL PUMP RELAY (Marking: F/PMP) 
    1. Remove the fuel pump relay from the engine room No. 2 relay block.
    2. Measure the resistance of the relay.

    Standard resistance 

    TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITION CHART

    Tester Connection Specified Condition
    3-4 Below 1 Ω
    3-4 10 kΩ or higher (when battery voltage is applied to terminals 1 and 2)

    NG: REPLACE FUEL PUMP RELAY 

    OK: Go to next step 

  7. INSPECT FUEL PUMP 
    1. Check the resistance of the fuel pump.
      1. Measure the resistance between terminals 4 and 5.

      Standard resistance: 

      0.2 to 3.0 Ω at 20°C (68°F) 

    2. Check the operation of the fuel pump.
      1. Apply battery voltage to both the terminals. Check that the pump operates.

    NOTE:
    • These tests must be done quickly (within 10 seconds) to prevent the coil from burning out.
    • Keep fuel pump as far away from the battery as possible.
    CAUTION: Always turn the voltage on and off on the battery side, not the fuel pump.

    NG: REPLACE FUEL PUMP 

    OK: Go to next step 

  8. INSPECT FUEL PUMP RESISTOR 
    1. Measure the resistance of the resistor.

    Standard resistance: 

    0.30 to 0.34 Ω at 20°C (68°F) 

    NG: REPLACE FUEL PUMP RESISTOR

    OK: Go to next step 

  9. CHECK ECM (FPR VOLTAGE) 
    1. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    2. Measure the voltage of the ECM connector.

    Standard voltage 

    TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITION CHART

    Tester Connection Specified Condition
    E6-15 (FPR) - Body ground 9 to 14 V

    NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR
