NOTE: Voltage is supplied to Leak detection pump (LDP) -V144- via the Fuel Pump (FP) relay.
Work procedure
- Remove left rear wheel.
- Remove rear left wheelhouse liner.
- Release and disconnect harness connector -3-.
Checking internal resistance
- Connect multimeter for resistance measurement as follows.
Leak Detection Pump (LDP) -V144- Specified value
Terminal
1 + 3 640 to 720 Ohms
2 + 3 15 to 17 Ohms
If specified values are not obtained:
- Replace Leak Detection Pump (LDP) -V144- see item 11.
If specified values are obtained:
Checking voltage supply
- Connect multimeter for voltage measurement as follows:
Harness connector Measure to
Terminal
Engine Ground (GND) 3
- Operate starter briefly.
Specified value: approx. battery voltage
- Switch ignition off.
If specified value is not obtained:
- Check wire connection from harness connector terminal 3 to Fuel Pump (FP) Relay -J17- via fuse for open circuit according to wiring diagram.
Specified value: Wire resistance max 1.5 Ohms
- If necessary, repair wire connection.
If voltage supply is OK:
Checking wire connections
- Connect test box to wiring harness of Engine Control Module (ECM). ECM is not connected.. Test Box, Connecting For Wiring and Component Test
- Check the following wire connections for open circuit according to wiring diagram:
Harness connector Test box
Terminal Socket

Specified value: Wire resistance max 1.5 Ohms
- Also check wires for short circuit to each other as well as to B+ and Ground (GND).
Specified value: Infinite Ohms (no continuity)
- If necessary, repair wire connection.
If no malfunctions are found in wires:
- Replace Engine Control Module (ECM).
