MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

13A-173

STEP 10. Check for harness damage between engine
coolant temperature sensor connector A-67 (terminal No.
2) and PCM connector C-90 (terminal No. 57).

NOTE: Check harness after checking intermediate connector
C-71. If intermediate connector is damaged, repair or replace it.
Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

.

Then go to Step 14.
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Replace the PCM. Then go to Step 14.
NO : Repair it. Then go to Step 14.

STEP 11. Check the engine coolant temperature sensor.
(1) Disconnect the engine coolant temperature sensor

connector A-67.

(2) Remove the engine coolant temperature sensor.

(3) With the temperature sensing portion of engine coolant

temperature sensor immersed in hot water, check
resistance.

Standard value:

14

− 17 kΩ [at −20°C (−4°F)]

5.1

− 6.5 kΩ [at 0°C (32°F)]

2.1

− 2.7 kΩ [at 20°C (68°F)]

0.9

− 1.3 kΩ [at 40°C (104°F)]

0.48

− 0.68 kΩ [at 60°C (140°F)]

0.26

− 0.36 kΩ [at 80°C (176°F)]

(4) Apply 3M

 AAD part number 8731 or equivalent on the

screw section of the engine coolant temperature sensor.

(5) Install the engine coolant temperature sensor, and tighten

to the specified torque.

Tightening torque: 29

± 10 N⋅m (22 ± 7 ft-lb)

Q: Is the resistance at the standard value?

YES : Go to Step 12.
NO : Replace the engine coolant temperature sensor. Then

go to Step 14.

STEP 12. Check connector C-90 at PCM for damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 13.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 14.

STEP 13. Check for harness damage between engine
coolant temperature sensor connector A-67 (terminal No.
1) and PCM connector C-90 (terminal No. 44).
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Replace the PCM. Then go to Step 14.
NO : Repair it. Then go to Step 14.

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 P0125 set?

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