STEP 2. Check the throttle actuator control motor relay.
(1) Remove the throttle actuator control motor relay.

(2) Check for continuity between the throttle actuator control

motor relay terminal No. 2 and No. 4.

• There should be continuity (approximately 70 ohms).

(3) Use jumper wires to connect throttle actuator control motor

relay terminal No. 4 to the positive battery terminal and
terminal No. 2 to the negative battery terminal.

(4) Check the continuity between the throttle actuator control

motor relay terminal No. 1 and No. 3 while connecting and
disconnecting the jumper wire at the negative battery
terminal.

• Should be less than 2 ohms. (Negative battery terminal

connected.)

• Should be open loop. (Negative battery terminal discon-

nected.)

(5) Install the throttle actuator control motor relay.
Q: Is the resistance normal?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Replace the throttle actuator control motor relay.

Then go to Step 14.

STEP 3. Measure the power supply voltage at throttle
actuator control motor relay harness side connector B-23X
(1) Disconnect the connector B-23X and measure at the

harness side.

(2) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 3 and ground.

• Voltage should be battery positive voltage.

Q: Is battery positive voltage (approximately 12 volts)

present?
YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Check harness connector A-03 at intermediate

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

P.00E-2

. If intermediate connector A-03 is

in good condition, repair it because of open circuit or
short circuit to ground between fusible link (5) and
throttle actuator control motor relay connector B-23X
(terminal No. 3). Then go to Step 14.

STEP 4. Measure the power supply voltage at throttle
actuator control motor relay harness side connector B-
23X.
(1) Disconnect the connector B-23X and measure at the

harness side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 4 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 6.
NO : Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Check connector B-22X at MFI relay for damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

YES : Repair harness wire between MFI relay connector B-

22X (terminal No. 1) and throttle actuator control
motor relay connector B-23X (terminal No. 4)
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.

STEP 6. Measure the power supply voltage at PCM harness
side connector D-132.
(1) Disconnect the connector D-132 and measure at the

harness side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 15 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 : Repair harness wire between throttle actuator control

motor relay connector B-23X (terminal No. 2) and
PCM connector D-132 (terminal No. 15) because of
open circuit or short circuit to ground. Then go to Step
14.

STEP 7. Measure the power supply voltage at PCM harness
side connector D-136.
(1) Disconnect the connector D-136 and measure at the

harness side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 132 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)
