MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <3.0L ENGINE>

13B-573

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991910: Main Harness A

• MB991658: Test Harness Set

STEP 1. Check harness connector B-12 at EGR valve and
harness connector B-10 at ECM for damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness

Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 5.

STEP 2. Measure the EGR valve motor coil resistance.
(1) Disconnect the EGR valve connector B-12.
(2) Measure the resistance between EGR valve connector

terminal No. 2 and either terminal No. 1 or terminal No. 3.

Standard value: 20

− 24 Ω [at 20°C (68°F)]

(3) Measure the resistance between EGR valve connector

terminal No. 5 and either terminal No. 4 or terminal No. 6.

Standard value: 20

− 24 Ω [at 20°C (68°F)]

Q: Is the measured resistance between 20 and 24 ohms [at

20

°C (68°F)]?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Replace the EGR valve. Then go to Step 5.

STEP 3. Check for short circuit to power supply between
EGR valve connector B-12 and ECM connector B-10.
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Then go to Step 4.
NO : Repair it. Then go to Step 5.

STEP 4. Check the EGR valve operation using special tool
MB991658.
(1) Remove the EGR valve.
(2) Connect special tool MB991658 to the EGR valve. (All

terminals should be connected.)

(3) Use the jumper wires to connect terminal No. 2 of the EGR

valve connector to the positive battery terminal.

(4) Check to ensure that the motor operates when the terminal

No. 1 and No. 3 of the EGR valve connector are
respectively connected to the negative battery terminal
using a jumper wire.

• Vibration should be present at each application of volt-

age to test clip combination.

(5) Then, use jumper wires to connect the terminal No. 5 of the

EGR valve connector to the positive battery terminal.

(6) Check to ensure that the motor operates when terminal No.

4 and No. 6 of the EGR valve connector are respectively
connected to the negative battery terminal using a jumper
wire.

• Vibration should be present at each application of volt-

age to test clip combination.

(7) Reinstall the EGR valve, using a new gasket, and tighten to

the specified torque.

Tighten torque: 23

± 6 N⋅m [17 ± 4 ft⋅Ib]

Q: Is the EGR valve operating properly?

YES : Replace the ECM. When the ECM is replaced,

register the ID code. Refer to GROUP 42B, Diagnosis
− ID Codes Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles

with KOS>

P.42B-15

or GROUP 42C, Diagnosis

− ID

Codes Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles with
WCM>

P.42C-10

. Then go to Step 5.

NO : Replace the EGR valve. Then go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to

Diagnostic Function

− OBD-II Drive Cycle − Pattern 3

P.13B-11

.

(2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P0490 set?

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

DTC P0506: Idle Control Sytem RPM Lower Than Expected

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• The amount of air taken in during idling is regu-

lated by the opening and closing of the throttle
valve.

• The ECM checks the difference between the

actual engine speed and the target engine speed.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS

Difference between actual and target idle speed is
over the specified value.

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

• Throttle valve area is dirty.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991910: Main Harness A

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic
trouble code (DTC)

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) After the DTC has been deleted, read the DTC again.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the diagnostic trouble code other than P0506 set?

YES : Refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart

P.13B-50

.

NO : Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check the throttle body. (throttle valve area)
Q: Is the throttle valve area dirty?

YES : Perform cleaning. Refer to Throttle Body (Throttle

Valve Area) Cleaning
