FI SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS
Step 2
1) Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2) Disconnect the ECT sensor coupler.
3) Measure the ECT sensor resistance.
ECT sensor resistance:
09900-25008: Multi-circuit tester set
Tester knob indication: Resistance (Ω)
Refer to page 7-7 for details.
Is the resistance OK?
• B/Bl or B/Br wire open or shorted to ground, or
poor 0 or S connection.
• If wire and connection are OK, intermittent trou-
ble or faulty ECM.
YES
• Recheck each terminal and wire harness for
open circuit and poor connection.
• Replace the ECM with a known good one, and
inspect it again.
NO
Replace the ECT sensor with a new one.
When using the multi-circuit tester, do not storongly
touch the terminal of the ECM coupler with a needle
pointed tester probe to prevent the terminal damage
or terminal bend.
4) After repairing the trouble, clear the DTC using SDS tool.
