MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

13A-309

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• The injector power is supplied from the injector

relay (terminal No. 3).

• The ECM controls the injector by turning the

power transistor in the ECM "ON" and "OFF".

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• The amount of fuel injected by the injector is con-

trolled by the amount of continuity time the coil is
grounded by the ECM.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

The ECM detects open circuit and short malfunction.

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check actuator test
item 1: Injectors.

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 actuator testing mode for

item 1, Injectors.

(4) Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature: 80° C

to 95° C (176° F to 203° F).

• The idle should become slightly rougher.

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

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

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

Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions

P.00-15

.

NO : Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check harness connector B-102 at No. 2 cylinder
injector for damage.
Q: Is the harness 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 20.

STEP 3. Check the No. 2 cylinder injector.
(1) Disconnect the No. 2 cylinder injector connector B-102.
(2) Measure the resistance between injector side connector

terminal No. 1 and No. 2.

Standard value: 10.5 − 13.5 Ω [at 20° C (68° F)]

Q: Is the measured resistance between 10.5 and 13.5 Ω [at

20° C (68° F)]?
YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Replace the No. 2 cylinder injector. Then go to Step

20.
