Engine General Information and Diagnosis 1

Inspection of ECM and Its Circuits

ECM and its circuits can be checked at ECM wiring couplers by measuring voltage, pulse signal and resistance.

CAUTION: ECM cannot be checked by itself. It is strictly prohibited to connect voltmeter or ohmmeter to ECM with coupler disconnected from it.

Voltage Check




Viewed from harness side:




1. Remove ECM (1) from vehicle body.
2. Check voltage and/or pulse signal at each terminal of couplers (2) connected using voltmeter (3) and oscilloscope (4).

NOTE:
- As each terminal voltage is affected by the battery voltage, confirm that it is 11 V or more when ignition switch is turned ON.
- Voltage with asterisk (*) cannot be measured by voltmeter because it is pulse signal. Check it with oscilloscope if necessary.
