STEP 4. After replacing the immobilizer-ECU,
re-check the trouble symptoms.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Replace engine-ECU.

NO :

Check end.

Code No. P0603: EEPROM Malfunction

FUNCTION

• The engine-ECU checks whether idling compen-

sation value and other relevant data are stored in
memory.

TROUBLE JUDGEMENT

Check Condition

• Ignition switch: ON

Judgement Criterion

• Last learning-date switch were written when igni-

tion switch was in OFF is not stored correctly.

PROBABLE CAUSE

• Failed engine-ECU

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. M.U.T.-III diagnosis code

• Reconfirmation of diagnosis code.

Q: Is the diagnosis code output?

YES :

Replace the engine-ECU.

NO :

Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP
00

− How to Use

Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points

−

How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions

P.00-13

).

Code No. P0606: Microcomputer Malfunction System

FUNCTION

• The engine-ECU checks whether there is any

abnormality in the microcomputer that controls
the throttle valve operation.

TROUBLE JUDGEMENT

Check Condition

• Ignition switch is in "ON" position.

• Battery voltage is more than 6.3 V.

Judgement Criterion

• Main microcomputer reference voltage is

abnomal.

PROBABLE CAUSE

• Failed engine-ECU

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. M.U.T.-III diagnosis code

• Reconfirmation of diagnosis code.

Q: Is the diagnosis code output?

YES :

Replace engine-ECU.

NO :

Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP
00

Code No. P0622: Alternator FR Terminal System

OPERATION

• This system provides data on energized state of

the field coil from the alternator (terminal No. 4) to
the engine-ECU (terminal No. 65).

FUNCTION

• The system provides the engine-ECU with a sig-

nal that shows the energizing duty ratio of the
alternator field coil.

• Using this signal, the engine-ECU determines the

alternator output current (electric load), based on
which the ECU controls the engine idling speed
accordingly.

TROUBLE JUDGEMENT

Check Condition

• After engine starts.

Judgement Criterion

• Input voltage from the alternator FR terminal is

battery voltage for 20 seconds.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Failed alternator

• Short circuit in or damage to alternator circuit, or

loose connector contact

• Failed engine-ECU

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Connector check: A-131 alternator
connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 2.

NO :

Repair or replace.

STEP 2. Perform voltage measurement at A-131
alternator connector.

•

Disconnect connector, and measure at harness side.

• Ignition switch: ON

• Voltage between terminal No. 4 and earth.

OK: System Voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 6.

NO :

Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Connector check: A-114 engine-ECU
Connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 4.

NO :

Repair or replace.

STEP 4. Check harness between A-131 (terminal
No. 4) alternator connector and A-114 (terminal
No. 65) engine-ECU connector.

•

Check the output line for open circuit.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 5.

NO :

Repair.

STEP 5. M.U.T.-III diagnosis code

• Reconfirmation of diagnosis code.

Q: Is the diagnosis code output?

YES :

Replace the engine-ECU.

NO :

Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP
00

− How to Use

Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points

−

How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions

P.00-13

).

STEP 6. Perform voltage measurement at A-114
engine-ECU connector.

•

Disconnect engine-ECU connector, and connect

special tool power plant ECU check harness
(MB991987), and measure the voltage on the
check connector.

• Engine: Idling after warm-up

• Transmission: Neutral

• Radiator fan: Inactive

• Voltage between terminal No. 65 and earth.

OK: Switching the headlamps from OFF to
ON causes the voltage to drop.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 7.

NO :

Go to Step 9.
