MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

13A-661

STEP 14. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to

Diagnostic Function

− OBD-II Drive Cycle − Procedure 6 −

Other Monitor

P.13A-4

.

(2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P0507 set?

YES : Repeat the troubleshooting.
NO : The procedure is complete.

DTC P0513: Immobilizer Malfunction

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• PCM monitors the communication condition with

the immobilizer-ECU and the message from the
immobilizer-ECU, and when the abnormality is
found, PCM makes the engine not to start.

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Check Conditions

• Ignition switch: ON

Judgment Criteria

• When the communication error between PCM

and the immobilizer-ECU continues for 2 seconds
or more.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely

causes for this code to be set are:)

• Malfunction of harness or connector.

• Malfunction of immobilizer-ECU.

• Malfunction of PCM.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991911: Main Harness B

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, read the immobilizer
system diagnostic trouble code (DTC).

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Read the immobilizer system-DTC
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the immobilizer system-DTC set?

YES : Refer to GROUP 54A, Ignition Switch and

Immobilizer System

− Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart

P.54-43

.

NO : If DTC P0513 is output again after the MFI-DTC has

been erased, replace the PCM. Then check that the
DTC P0513 does not reset.

DTC P0551: Power Steering Pressure Sensor Circuit Range/Performance

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• A battery positive voltage is applied to the power

steering pressure switch output terminal (terminal
1) from the PCM (terminal 52) via the resistor in
the PCM.

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• The power steering pressure switch converts the

existence of a power steering load into a high/low
voltage, and inputs it into the PCM.

• When the steering wheel is turned, hydraulic

pressure rises. The power steering pressure
switch closes, and the applied battery positive
voltage will be grounded. With this, the power
steering pressure switch output voltage will fluc-
tuate between 12 volts and 0 volt.

• While driving with the steering wheel held

straight, the power steering pressure switch turns
"OFF".

• The PCM checks whether the power steering

pressure switch turns "OFF" or "ON" during driv-
ing.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
Power steering pressure switch stays on during

specified go/stop operations.
