CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991502, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991502.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991502 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Read the DTC.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC set?

YES : Refer to GROUP 13A, Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart

P.13Ab-22

.

NO : Refer to GROUP 17, Emission Control System

−

INSPECTION PROCEDURE 25: Pressure Test of the Evaporative System Failure

.

COMMENT

• The test fails if there is a leak from the fuel tank or

vapor line.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely
causes for this case: )

• Loose fuel tank filler tube cap.

• Broken seal in fuel tank, vapor line evaporative

emission canister.

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. Check the evaporative emission purge solenoid.
Refer to GROUP 17, Emission Control System

− Evaporative

Emission Purge Solenoid Check

P.17-62

.

Q: Is the evaporative emission purge solenoid normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair or replace. Then confirm that the malfunction

symptom is eliminated.

STEP 2. Check the evaporative emission ventilation
solenoid.
Refer to GROUP 17, Emission Control System

− Evaporative

Emission Ventilation Solenoid Check

P.17-63

.

Q: Is the evaporative emission ventilation solenoid

normal?
YES : Check the following items, and repair or replace the

defective items.

a. Check for leaks from the vapor line or

evaporative emission canister.

b. Check for leaks from the fuel tank.

Then confirm that the malfunction symptom is

eliminated.

NO : Repair or replace. Then confirm that the malfunction

symptom is eliminated.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• The PCM increases the engine idle speed by

driving the Throttle actuator control motor when
the automatic compressor-ECU sends a "A/C on"
signal to the module.

• The automatic compressor-ECU detects how the

air conditioning is applying load to the engine,
and converts the information to a voltage signal
(High voltage = low load, Low voltage = high
load). This voltage signal is called "A/C switch 2

signal". The PCM receives this A/C switch 2 sig-
nal from the automatic compressor-ECU through
terminal No. 78, and determines the idle-up
speed according to the high or low air condition-
ing load.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely
causes for this code to be set are: )

• Malfunction of the A/C control system.

• Open or shorted circuit, or improper connector

contact.

• PCM failed.

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. Check harness connector D-134 at PCM for
damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then confirm that the

malfunction symptom is eliminated.

STEP 2. Measure the output voltage at PCM harness side
connector D-134.
(1) Disconnect the connector D-134 and measure at the

harness side.

(2) Start the engine and run at idle.
(3) Turn the A/C switch "ON".

(4) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 78 and ground.

• If atmospheric air temperature is 15°C (59°F) or less,

the voltage should be 1 volt or less.

• If atmospheric air temperature is 18°C (65.4°F) or more,

the voltage should be battery positive voltage.

(5) Turn the A/C switch "OFF".
(6) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the voltage normal?

YES : Replace the PCM. Then confirm that the malfunction

symptom is eliminated.

NO : Refer to GROUP 55, Introduction To Heater, Air

Conditioning And Ventilation Diagnosis
