1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Check the No. 17 (15 A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box.

Is the fuse blown?

YES-Repair short in the wire between the electric vacuum pump relay 1 and the No. 17 (15 A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box. Replace the No. 17 (15 A) fuse, and recheck.

NO-Reinstall the fuse, then go to step 3.

3. Remove electric vacuum pump relay 1, and check the relay.

Is electric vacuum pump relay 1 OK?

YES-Go to step 4.

NO-Replace electric vacuum pump relay 1.

4. Measure the voltage between body ground and electric vacuum pump relay 1 terminal No. 2.





Is there battery voltage?

YES-Go to step 5.

NO-Repair open in the wire between electric vacuum pump relay 1 and the No. 17 (15 A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box.

5. Remove the No. 31 (7.5 A) fuse in the auxiliary under-hood fuse/relay box.

6. Check for continuity between electric vacuum pump relay 1 terminal No. 1 and No. 31 (7.5 A) fuse in the auxiliary under hood fuse/relay box terminal No. 1.





Is there continuity?

YES-Go to step 7.

NO-Repair open in the wire between electric vacuum pump relay 1 and No. 31 (7.5 A) fuse in the auxiliary under-hood fuse/relay box.

7. Check for continuity between body ground and electric vacuum pump relay 1 terminal No. 3.

8. Short the SCS line with the HDS.
9. Disconnect PCM connector A (44P).
10. Check for continuity between, electric vacuum pump relay 1 terminal No. 4 and PCM connector A (44P) terminal No. 12.





Is there continuity?

YES-Check for loose terminals in the electric vacuum pump relay 1 4P connector, the electric vacuum pump 2P connector, and PCM connector A (44P), then update the PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM then go to step 1 and recheck. If no DTCs are indicated, and the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM.

NO-Repair open in the wire between electric vacuum pump relay 1 and the PCM.
