Required Special Tools:

• Diagnostic tool(MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991910: Main Harness A

• MB992044: Test Harness

.

STEP 1. Using diagnostic tool, check data list.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to diagnostic tool, always turn the igni-
tion switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connect-
ing or disconnecting diagnostic tool.

1. Connect diagnostic tool to the data link connector.

2. Start the engine and run at idle.

3. Set the diagnostic tool to display the Data List for MPI.

Check the following items in the data list. Refer to Data List
Reference Table

4. Using diagnostic tool, observe HO

S reading. If values are

unsatisfactory, check for malfunctioning sensor or damaged
connector/wiring.

(1) Warm up the engine until engine coolant is 80

°C (176°F)

or higher.

5. While repeatedly revving the engine, check each heated

oxygen sensor output voltage.

Standard value:

6. If the output voltage for a sensor is not within the standard

value:

(1) Turn "OFF" engine.
(2) Disconnect the heated oxygen sensor connector and

measure the resistance between terminal No. 3 and No.
4 on heated oxygen sensor side.

(3) Make sure that there is a resisitance of: .

9.0 - 11.0 ohms at 20

°C (68°F)⋅

(4) If the sensor voltage is unsatisfactory or the resistance of

heater is outside value, replace the heated oxygen
sensor.

NOTE: For removal and installation of the heated oxygen sen-
sor, refer to GROUP 15, Exhaust Pipe and Main Muffler

.

<Operation Inspection>

1. Disconnect the air intake hose from the throttle body.

2. Set the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

3. Operate the accelerator pedal and confirm that the throttle

valve is opening and closing accordingly.

WARNING

If the air intake duct is removed from the throttle body take great care to keep fingers away
from the throttle plate. The drive motor has very high torque and is capable of random move-
ment at any time. Do not under any circumstances activate the throttle plate by hand.
When removing the throttle body from the intake manifold disconnect the wiring first. During
replacement connect the wiring last.
Do not activate the throttle body using a DC suppy to test the motor,as permanent damage to
the throttle body will result.

.

<Checking the Terminal Resistance>

1. Disconnect the throttle position sensor connector.

2. Measure the resistance between terminal No. 1 and No. 4.

Standard value: 1.5

Ω ± 0.3Ω

3. If resistance is outside the standard value, replace the

throttle body assembly.
