STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check actuator test
item 1: No. 1 Injector.

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 No. 1 injector.

(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-101 at No. 1 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. 1 cylinder injector.
(1) Disconnect the No. 1 cylinder injector connector B-101.
(2) Measure the resistance between injector side connector

terminal No. 1 and No. 2.

Standard value: 10.5

− 13.5 ohms [at 20°C (68°F)]

Q: Is the measured resistance between 10.5 and 13.5 ohms

[at 20

°C (68°F)]?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO : Replace the No. 1 cylinder injector. Then go to Step

20.

STEP 4. Measure the power supply voltage at No. 1
cylinder injector connector.
(1) Disconnect connector B-101 and measure at the harness

side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 1 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 14.
NO : Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Check harness connector A-24X at injector relay
for damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 20.

STEP 6. Check the injector relay.
(1) Remove the injector relay.
(2) Check for continuity between the injector relay terminal No.

1 and No. 2.
There should be continuity.

(3) Use jumper wires to connect injector relay terminal No. 1 to

the positive battery terminal and terminal No. 2 to the
negative battery terminal.

(4) Check for continuity between the injector relay terminal No.

3 and No. 4 while connecting and disconnecting the jumper
wire at the negative battery terminal.

• Continuity (2 ohms or less). <Negative battery terminal

connected>

• Should be open loop. <Negative battery terminal discon-

nected>

(5) Install the injector relay.
Q: Is the measured resistance normal?

YES : Go to Step 7.
NO : Replace the injector relay. Then go to Step 20.

STEP 7. Check for continuity at injector relay harness side
connector A-24X.
(1) Disconnect the connector A-24X and measure at the

harness side.

(2) Check for the continuity between terminal No. 2 and

ground.

• Continuity (2 ohms or less).

Q: Does continuity exist?

YES : Go to Step 8.
NO : Repair harness wire between injector relay connector

A-24X (terminal No. 2) and ground because of open
circuit or harness damage. Then go to Step 20.

STEP 8. Measure the power supply voltage at injector relay
harness side connector A-24X.
(1) Disconnect the connector A-24X and measure at the

harness side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 1 and ground.

• Voltage should be battery positive voltage.

Q: Is battery positive voltage (approximately 12 volts)

present?
YES : Go to Step 10.
NO : Go to Step 9.

STEP 9. Check harness connector C-304 at ETACS-ECU for
damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Repair harness wire between injector relay connector

A-24X (terminal No. 1) and ETACS-ECU connector
C-304 (terminal No. 10) because of open circuit or
short circuit to ground. Then go to Step 20.

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

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 20.
