System Check

  1. Visually check air/fuel ratio system. Check all hoses and electrical connections for proper installation. Start engine and warm to normal operating temperature.
  2. Connect voltmeter positive lead to Green/Blue wire. Connect negative lead to Black wire at function check connector (located under left side of instrument panel).
  3. Coolant temperature switch functions properly if voltmeter reads 0 volts when coolant temperature is below 104°F (40°C) or 12 volts if above.
  4. Disconnect air/fuel ratio control solenoid valve connector. With engine running at 2000 RPM, apply 12 volts to valve. If valve is operating properly, a clicking sound can be heard from valve and engine speed will change. If not, replace air/fuel ratio control solenoid valve.
