Inspection Procedure

HINT:

• Even though terminal TC is not connected with terminal CG, the MIL blinks.
• For the above phenomenon, an open or short in the wire harness, or malfunction inside the ECM is the likely cause.

1. Check voltage between terminals TC and CG of DLC3. 

   PREPARATION: 

   Turn the ignition switch to ON.

   CHECK: 

   Measure the voltage between terminals TC and CG of the DLC3.

   OK: Voltage: 9 to 14 V

   • OK: Replace ECM (See  HOW TO USE THE DIAGNOSTIC CHART AND INSPECTION PROCEDURE  ). 
   • NG: Go to next step. 
2. Check continuity between terminal CG of DLC3 and body ground. 
   • NG: Repair or replace harness or connector. 
   • OK: Go to next step. 
3. Check for open and short circuit in harness and connectors between ECM and DLC3, and DLC3 and body ground (See  HOW TO USE THE DIAGNOSTIC CHART AND INSPECTION PROCEDURE  ). 
   • NG: Repair or replace harness or connector. 
   • OK: Replace ECM (See  HOW TO USE THE DIAGNOSTIC CHART AND INSPECTION PROCEDURE  ).
