Diagnostic Procedure

  1. INSPECTION START 

    Turn ignition switch to START.

    Is any cylinder ignited? 

    Yes or No 

    Yes (With CONSULT-II)>>GO TO  2.

    Yes (Without CONSULT-II)>>GO TO  3.

    No: GO TO  3.

  2. CHECK OVERALL FUNCTION 

    With CONSULT-II 

    1. Start engine.
    2. Perform "POWER BALANCE" in "ACTIVE TEST " mode with CONSULT-II.
    3. Make sure that each circuit produces a momentary engine speed drop.

    OK or NG 

    OK: INSPECTION END 

    NG: GO TO  3.

  3. CHECK FUNCTION OF FUEL INJECTOR-I 

    Without CONSULT-II 

    1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    2. Disconnect harness connector F21, F201 (Bank 1) and F41, F221 (Bank 2).

    3. Turn ignition switch ON.
    4. Check voltage between the following;

      harness connector F21 terminal 5 and ground,

      harness connector F41 terminal 5 and ground

      with CONSULT-II or tester.

      Voltage: Battery voltage 

    5. Turn ignition switch OFF.
    6. Disconnect ECM harness connector.
    7. Check harness continuity between the following terminals.
      CONTINUITY CONDITIONS

      Cylinder Harness connector terminal ECM terminal
      1 F21 terminal 3 23
      3 F21 terminal 2 22
      5 F21 terminal 1 21
      7 F21 terminal 6 44
      2 F41 terminal 3 42
      4 F41 terminal 2 41
      6 F41 terminal 1 40
      8 F41 terminal 6 63

      Continuity should exist. 

    8. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.

    OK or NG 

    OK: GO TO  5.

    NG: GO TO  4.

  4. DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART 

    Check the following.

    • Harness connectors M82, F102
    • Harness connectors F21, F201
    • Harness connectors F41, F221
    • Fuse block (J/B) connector M1
    • 15A fuse
    • Harness for open or short between harness connector F21 and fuse
    • Harness for open or short between harness connector F41 and fuse
    • Harness for open or short between harness connector F21 and ECM
    • Harness for open or short between harness connector F41 and ECM

      >> Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.

  5. CHECK FUNCTION OF FUEL INJECTOR-II 

    Provide battery voltage between the following terminals, and then interrupt it. Listen to each fuel injector operating sound.

    TERMINALS REFERENCE

    Cylinder Harness connector terminal
    (+) (-)
    1 F201 5 3
    3 2
    5 1
    7 6
    2 F221 5 3
    4 2
    6 1
    8 6

    Operating sound should exist. 

    OK or NG 

    OK: INSPECTION END 

    NG: GO TO  6.

      F221 terminal 2
      F221 terminal 3
      F221 terminal 6
      F221 terminal 5 1

      Continuity should exist. 

    3. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.

    OK or NG 

    OK: GO TO  7.

    NG: Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.

  7. CHECK FUEL INJECTOR 

    Refer to "COMPONENT INSPECTION ".
