DTC SET CONDITIONS

Logic Flow Chart

.

Check Conditions

• Vehicle speed has reached 1.5 km/h (0.93 mph)

or more at least once.

• Under the closed loop idle speed control.

• Engine coolant temperature is higher than 77°C

(171

°F).

• Battery positive voltage is higher than 10 volts.

• Barometric pressure is higher than 76 kPa (22.4

in.Hg).

• Intake air temperature is higher than −10°C

(14

°F).

• 60 seconds have elapsed from the start of the

previous monitoring.

• Target idle air control motor position is 0 steps.

Judgment Criteria

• Actual idle speed has continued to be higher than

the target idle speed by 200 r/min (300 r/min*) or
more for 12 seconds.

*: Specs in parentheses are applicable if the max-

imum air temperature during the previous
operation was more than 45

°C (113°F).

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

13A-654

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

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

• MB991824: V.C.I

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991911: Main Harness B

• MB991709: Test Harness

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, read the 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) Set scan tool MB991958, read the DTC.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC other than P0507 set?

YES : Refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart

P.13A-26

.

NO : Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check for intake system vacuum leaks.
Q: Are there any abnormalities?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Repair or replace it. Then go to Step 14.

STEP 3. Check connector A-40 at idle air control motor for
damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 14.

STEP 4. Check the idle air control motor coil resistance.
(1) Disconnect the idle air control motor connector A-40.
(2) Measure the resistance between idle air control motor

connector terminal No. 2 and either terminal No. 1 or
terminal No. 3.

Standard value: 28

− 33 ohms [at 20° C (68° F)]

(3) Measure the resistance between idle air control motor

connector terminal No. 5 and either terminal No. 4 or
terminal No. 6.

Standard value: 28

− 33 ohms [at 20° C (68° F)]

Q: Is the measured resistance between 28 and 33 ohms [at

20

° C (68° F)]?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Replace the idle air control motor. Then go to Step 14.

STEP 5. Measure the power supply voltage at idle air
control motor harness side connector A-40.
(1) Disconnect the connector A-40 and measure at the harness

side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Measure the voltage between terminals No. 2, No. 5 and

ground.

• Voltage should be battery positive voltage.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is battery positive voltage (approximately 12 volts)

present?
YES : Go to Step 7.
NO : Go to Step 6.

STEP 6. Check connector C-59 at MFI relay for damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

YES : Check connector C-14 at intermediate connector for

damage, and repair or replace as required. Refer to
GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. If intermediate connectors is in good

condition, repair harness wire between MFI relay
connector C-59 (terminal No. 1) and idle air control
motor connector A-40 (terminals No. 2, No. 5)
because of open circuit or short circuit to ground.
Then go to Step 14.

NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 14.
