Troubleshooting

WARNING

!

Keep hands, tools, and clothing away from engine cooling fan to help prevent personal injury. This fan
is electric and can come on whether or not the engine is running. The fan can start automatically in
response to the ECT sensor with the ignition switch at the “ON” position.

NOTE

• Before performed troubleshooting, be sure to read the “Precautions of ECM Circuit Inspection”.
• When measuring circuit voltage, resistance and/or pulse signal at ECM connector, connect the

special tool to ECM and/or the ECM connectors referring to “Inspection of ECM and Its Circuits”.
