Leak Detection Pump, Checking

Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required

Multimeter.

Wiring diagram.

Test requirements

The Leak Detection Pump (LDP) (V144) Engine Electronics Fuse (S282) OK.

The ignition switched off.

The voltage for the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) (-V144- ) is supplied via the Fuel Pump (FP) Relay (J17 ).

Procedure

- Remove the left rear wheel housing liner.

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





Checking internal resistance

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









If any of the specifications were not obtained:

- Replace the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) (-V144- ). Refer to Fuel Supply Repair Information.

If the specified values were obtained:

Checking voltage supply

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









- Operate the starter briefly.

Specified value: battery voltage.

- Switch the ignition off.

If the specified value was not obtained:

- Check the wiring for a short circuit to Ground (GND) or an open circuit.

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

- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.

It the specification was obtained.

Checking wiring

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

- Install the test box. Refer to Fuel Injection and Ignition Repair Information.

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 ] Service and Repair.

- Using a Multimeter, check the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) (-V144-) electrical harness connector terminals to the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623 ) electrical harness connector T121 terminals for an open circuit.









Specified value: 1.5 ohms.

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, lose or broken terminals.

- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.

If no malfunction is found in wiring:

- Replace the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623).

Assembly is performed in the reverse order of the removal, note the following:

- Install the right rear wheel housing liner.

Final procedures

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

1. Check the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory.

2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory.

3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to => [ Readiness Code ] Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes.
