ECM Power and Ground Circuit Check: Troubleshooting

CAUTION: The connectors of the ECM are watertight. If tester probes are directly connected to any of the connectors when checking the ECM and its circuits, the watertight performance of the connector will be affected, possibly resulting in corrosion of connector terminals and damage to electrical circuits. Always use the special tool when checking the ECM and its circuits. Connect tester probes only to the special tool's connectors.
NOTE:

    Before troubleshooting, perform following items.

  • Be sure to read PRECAUTIONS FOR ECM CIRCUIT INSPECTION   .
  • Be sure to confirm related fuses of ECM power circuit for not blown out.

    If fuse is blown out, replace fuse(s) and check circuits connected to blown fuse(s) for short circuit to ground.

  • Confirm that battery voltage is 11 V or more.
  1. Check ECM power supply circuit as follows.
    1. Turn OFF ignition switch and disconnect ECM connectors from ECM.
    2. Check each terminal of ECM connectors for proper connection.
    3. Measure voltage between each terminal of ECM connector and body ground in the following table.

      If each measured voltage is out of specified voltage, repair or replace related part.
