MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

13A-767

STEP 11. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic
trouble code (DTC).
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) After the DTC has been deleted, read the DTC again.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK"(OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC P2126 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO : The inspection is complete.

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

DTC P2127: Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (Sub) Circuit Low Input

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• A 5-volt power supply is applied on the APS (sub)

power terminal (terminal No. 8) from the PCM
(terminal No. 97).
The ground terminal (terminal No. 7) is grounded
with PCM (terminal No. 96).

• When the accelerator pedal is moved from the

idle position to the fully opened position, the
resistance between the APS (sub) output termi-
nal (terminal No. 6) and ground terminal (terminal
No. 7) will increase according to the rotation.

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• The APS (sub) outputs voltage which corre-

sponds to the accelerator pedal depression.

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

13A-770

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

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

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991911: Main Harness B

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item 77:
Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (sub).

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 data reading mode for item

77, Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (sub).

• Output voltage is between 0.905 and 1.165 volts when

foot is released from accelerator pedal.

• Output voltage is 4.035 volts or higher when accelerator

pedal is fully depressed.

(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 connector D-138 at accelerator pedal
position sensor 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.
