OPERATION TEST

1. Follow "BEFORE SERVICE PRECAUTION" before performing any work operations to prevent fuel

from spilling from the fuel system. (See BEFORE SERVICE PRECAUTION [MZI-3.7].)

2. Remove the fuel-filler cap. (See FUEL TANK REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [MZI-3.7].)

3. Start the fuel pump using the following procedure:

Using M-MDS

1. Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.

2. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.

3. Using the simulation function FP, verify that operation sound is heard from the fuel pump when FP is

turned from OFF to ON.



If the operation sound cannot be verified, measure the voltage at fuel pump wiring harness-side
connector terminal B.



If as specified, inspect the following:



Fuel pump continuity



If not within the specification, inspect the following:



Fuel pump relay



Wiring harnesses and connectors between battery-fuel pump relay-fuel pump

is turned to the ON position.

NOTE:



To improve start ability, the fuel pump control operates the fuel pump unit
when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position. Due to this, fuel
pressure is rapidly increased and fuel control is stabilized.
