STEP 8. Check for harness damage between MFI relay
connector B-17X (terminal No. 4) and intermediate
connector B-32 (terminal No. 9).
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 9.
NO : Repair it. Then go to Step 12.

STEP 9. Check harness connector B-20 at ECU for
damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 10.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 12.

STEP 10. Check for open circuit and short circuit to
ground and harness damage between intermediate
connector B-32 (terminal No. 10) and ECU connector B-20
(terminal No. 34).
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 11.
NO : Repair it. Then go to Step 12.

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

STEP 11. Using the oscilloscope, check the No. 3 cylinder
injector.
(1) Disconnect the intermediate connector B-32 and connect

the test harness MB991658 between the separated
connectors.

(2) Connect the oscilloscope probe to injector intermediate

connector terminal No. 10.

NOTE: When measuring with the ECU side connector, dis-
connect the all ECU connectors and connect check harness
special tool (MB992044) between the separated connec-
tors. Then connect an oscilloscope probe to the check har-
ness connector terminal No. 34.

(3) Start the engine and run at idle.

(4) Measure the waveform.

• The waveform should show a normal pattern similar to

the illustration.

(5) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.

Q: Is the waveform normal?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

Refer to 00E, How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection
Service Points

− How to Cope with Intermittent

Malfunctions

P.00-14

.

NO : Replace the ECU. Then go to Step 12.

STEP 12. Test the EOBD drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to

Diagnostic Function

− EOBD Drive Cycle −

P.13A-11

.

(2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).

Q: Is DTC P0203 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO : The inspection is complete.

DTC P0204: Injector Circuit Malfunction - Cylinder 4.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• Refer to DTC P0300 - Random/Multiple Misfire-

P.13A-330

and Misfire Cylinder 4-

P.13A-340

.

• The injector power is supplied from the MPI relay

(terminal No. 4).

• The ECU controls the injector by turning the

power transistor in the ECU "ON" and "OFF".

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• The amount of fuel injected by the injector is con-

trolled by the amount of continuity time the coil is
grounded by the ECU.

• A surge voltage is generated when the injectors

are switched on/off.

• The ECU monitors this surge voltage.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS <Circuit continuity

− open circuit and shorted low>

Check Conditions

• Battery voltage is between 9.04 and 16.01vols.

• Engine speed is above 801 r/min.

Judgment Criteria

• IC internal test (open circuit, short to earth, short

to battery).

• MIL on after 2 drive cycles.

• Misfire present.
