MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <2.4L>

13A-493

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958 (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991911: Main Harness B

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check actuator test
item 08: Evaporative Emission Purge Solenoid.

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 to the actuator test mode for item

08, Evaporative emission purge solenoid.

• An operation sound should be heard and vibration

should be felt when the evaporative emission purge
solenoid is operated.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the solenoid operating properly?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points

P.00-6

.

NO : Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check connector B-33 at the evaporative emission
purge solenoid for damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 12.

STEP 3. Check the evaporative emission purge solenoid.
(1) Disconnect the evaporative emission purge solenoid

connector B-33.

(2) Measure the resistance between evaporative emission

purge solenoid side connector terminal No. 1 and No. 2.

Standard value: 30

− 34 ohms [at 20°C (68°F)]

Q: Is the resistance between 30 and 34 ohms?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Replace the evaporative emission purge solenoid.

Then go to Step 12.

STEP 4. Measure the power supply voltage at evaporative
emission purge solenoid harness side connector B-33.
(1) Disconnect the connector B-33 and measure at the harness

side.

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

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 2 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 A-18X at MFI relay for damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

YES : Repair harness wire between MFI relay connector

A-18X (terminal No. 4) and evaporative emission
purge solenoid connector B-33 (terminal No. 2)
because of open circuit or short circuit to ground.
Then go to Step 12.

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

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 12.

STEP 6. Measure the power supply voltage at ECM
connector C-49 <M/T> or PCM connector <A/T> C-50 by
backprobing.
(1) Do not disconnect the connector C-49 <M/T> or C-50

<A/T>.

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