MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <2.4L ENGINE>

13A-162

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991910: Main Harness A

• MB991658: Test Harness

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item 79:
Throttle Position Sensor (main).

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) Detach the intake air hose at the throttle body.
(4) Disconnect the connector of the throttle position sensor.
(5) Use test harness special tool (MB991658) to connect only

terminals No. 3, No. 4, No. 5, and No. 6.

(6) Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode for item

79, Throttle Position Sensor (main).

• Output voltage should be between 0.3 and 0.7 volt when

the throttle valve is fully closed with your finger.

• Output voltage should be between 4.0 volts or more

when the throttle valve is fully open with your finger.

(7) 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

− How to

Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions

P.00-14

.

NO : Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check harness connector B-06 at throttle position
sensor 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 11.

STEP 3. Measure the sensor supply voltage at throttle
position sensor harness side connector B-06.
(1) Disconnect the connector B-06 and measure at the harness

side.

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

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 5 and ground.

• Voltage should be between 4.9 and 5.1 volts.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK"(OFF) position.
Q: Is the measured voltage between 4.9 and 5.1 volts?

YES : Go to Step 7.
NO : Go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Check harness connector B-22 at PCM for
damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 11.

STEP 5. Check for open circuit and short circuit to ground
between throttle position sensor connector B-06 (terminal
No. 5) and PCM connector B-22 (terminal No. 94).
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Repair it. Then go to Step 11.
