MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <2.4L>

13A-297

• At least 20 seconds have passed since fuel shut

off control was canceled.

• Monitoring time: 10 seconds.

Judgement Criteria

• Making the air/fuel ratio 15 percent for 10 sec-

onds richer does not result in raising the heated
oxygen sensor (rear) output voltage beyond 0.15
volt.

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

• Heated oxygen sensor (rear) failed.

• Short circuit in heated oxygen sensor (rear) out-

put line.

• Connector damage.

• ECM failed. <M/T>

• PCM failed. <A/T>

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958 (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991911: Main Harness B

• MB991658: Test Harness

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item 59:
Heated Oxygen Sensor (rear).

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) Start the engine and run at idle.
(3) Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode for item

59, Heated Oxygen Sensor (rear).

• Warming up the engine. When the engine is revved, the

output voltage should repeat 0 volt and 0.6 to 1.0 volt
alternately.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the sensor 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 the heated oxygen sensor (rear).
(1) Disconnect the heated oxygen sensor (rear) connector

C-23 and connect test harness special tool, MB991658, to
the connector on the heated oxygen sensor (front) side.

(2) Warm-up the engine until engine coolant 80

°C (176°F) or

higher.

CAUTION

Be very careful when connecting the jumper wires; incor-
rect connection can damage the right bank heated oxygen
sensor (rear).

(3) Use the jumper wires to connect terminal No. 5 to the

positive battery terminal and terminal No. 6 to the negative
battery terminal.

(4) Connect a digital volt meter between terminal No. 3 and

terminal No. 4.

(5) While repeatedly revving the engine, measure the heated

oxygen sensor (rear) output voltage.

Standard value: 0.6

− 1.0 volt

Q: Is the voltage between 0.6 and 1.0 volt?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Replace the heated oxygen sensor (rear). Then go to

Step 5.

STEP 3. Check connector C-23 at heated oxygen sensor
(rear) and connector C-60 at ECM <M/T> or connector C-57
at PCM <A/T> for damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

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

STEP 4. Check for short circuit to ground between heated
oxygen sensor (rear) connector C-23 (terminal No. 1) and
ECM connector C-60 (terminal No. 75) <M/T> or PCM
connector C-57 (terminal No. 73) <A/T>.
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Replace the ECM or PCM. Then go to Step 5.
NO : Repair it. Then go to Step 5.
