WIRING DIAGRAM

7D1: CHECK TEST MODE CONNECTOR.

1. Disconnect test mode connector.
2. Turn ignition switch to ON.

CHECK: Does MIL flash on and off?

YES: Go to step 7D2.

NO: System is in good order.

NOTE: MIL blinks at a cycle of 3 Hz when test mode connector is connected.

7D2: CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM CONNECTOR AND ENGINE GROUNDING TERMINAL.

1. Turn ignition switch to OFF.
2. Disconnect connector from ECM.

Connector & Terminal - [(B135) No.14 - Chassis Ground]:

3. Measure resistance of harness between ECM connector and chassis ground.

CHECK: Is resistance less than 5 Ohms?

YES: Repair short circuit in harness between ECM and test mode connector.

NO: Replace ECM.
