Leak Detection Pump, Checking

Special tools and workshop equipment required 

• Multimeter.
• Wiring diagram.

Test requirements 

• The Leak Detection Pump (LDP) -V144- fuse OK.
• The ignition switched off.

Test procedure 

-- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to PRELIMINARY CHECK .

Start diagnosis 

-- Remove the left rear wheel housing liner.

-- Disconnect the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) -V144- electrical harness connector -3-.

Checking internal resistance 

-- Using a Multimeter --, check the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) -V144- for resistance as follows:

Leak Detection Pump (LDP) -V144- electrical connector terminals	Specified value
-1- + -3-	640 to 720 Ω
-2- + -3-	15 to 17 Ω

If the specifications was not obtained:

-- Replace the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) --V144--.

If the specified values are obtained:

Checking voltage supply 

-- Check the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) --V144-- for voltage.

-- Using a Multimeter --, check the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) --V144-- electrical harness connector terminal 3 to Ground (GND) for voltage.

-3-	Engine Ground (GND)

-- Operate the starter briefly.

Specified value: battery voltage.

-- Switch the ignition off.

If the specified value was not obtained:

If the manufacturers test box is being used. Perform the following step.

-- Install the test box.

If the manufacturers test box is not being used. Perform the following step.

-- Remove the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623-. Refer to ENGINE CONTROL MODULE, REPLACING .

-- Using a Multimeter --, check the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) --V144-- electrical harness connector terminal 3 to the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) Power Supply Relay -J271- terminal 2/87 for resistance.

Specified value: Wire resistance 1.5 Ω.

If the specification was not obtained:

-- Check the wiring for a short circuit to Battery positive (+) or an open circuit.

-- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.

-- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.

If no malfunction is detected in the wiring and if the voltage supply is OK:

Checking output wiring 

-- Using a Multimeter --, check the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) --V144-- electrical connector terminal 1 to Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623- electrical connector T94 terminal 40 for an open circuit.

-- Using a Multimeter --, check the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) --V144-- electrical connector terminal 2 to Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623- electrical connector T94 terminal 10 for an open circuit.

Leak Detection Pump (LDP) --V144-- electrical connector terminals	Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623- electrical connector T94 terminals or test box socket
-1-	40
-2-	10

Specified value: 1.5 Ω.

If the specification is not obtained:

-- Check the wiring for a short circuit to Battery positive (+) or an open circuit.

-- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.

-- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.

-- Erase the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 04 - ERASE DTC MEMORY .

-- Perform a road test to verify repair.

If the DTC does not return:

Repair complete, Generate readiness code. Refer to READINESS CODE .

-- End diagnosis.

If the DTC does return and no malfunction is detected in the wiring and the voltage supply was OK:

-- Replace the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623-. Refer to ENGINE CONTROL MODULE, REPLACING .

-- Assembly is performed in the reverse of the removal.

Final procedures 

After repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the mentioned sequence:

1. Check the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 03 - READ DTC MEMORY .
2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 04 - ERASE DTC MEMORY .
3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to READINESS CODE .
