ECU Input Signals

  1. Timing control and triggering of fuel injectors are based on input signals from TDC/CRANK/CYL sensors. These sensors are Permanent Magnet (PM) generator pick-up coils.
  2. Using a DVOM (preferably with bar-graph function) on low-volt scale, check each sensor for pulse voltage signal at indicated ECU harness terminals with engine cranking. See ECU INPUT SIGNAL & RESISTANCE TEST TERMINALS  table. See Fig 1 for ECU terminal identification. If pulse signal is present, sensor is okay. If pulse signal is not present, go to step 3).
  3. Turn ignition off. Disconnect ECU connector. Check wiring harness and connectors. Check resistance of each sensor at indicated ECU harness terminals. See ECU INPUT SIGNAL & RESISTANCE TEST TERMINALS  table. If resistance is within specification, go to step 4). If resistance is not within specification, go to step 5).

  4. Check continuity to ground on each terminal. If continuity exists, disconnect sensor connector, and recheck appropriate ECU terminal for continuity to ground. If continuity still exists, repair short to ground in harness. If continuity does not exist, replace sensor assembly.
  5. Disconnect sensor connector. Check resistance of sensor. See Fig 2 , Fig 3 or Fig 4 . If resistance is within specification, repair open, short or corrosion in sensor harness between ECU and sensor. If sensor resistance is not within specification, replace sensor assembly. See ECU INPUT SIGNAL & RESISTANCE TEST TERMINALS  table.
