Leak Detection Pump Checking
Diagnostic Procedures
Leak Detection Pump Checking
Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
• Multimeter.
• Wiring diagram.
Test requirements
• Fuse (SB44) OK.
• The ignition switched off.
• The voltage for the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) (-V144-) is supplied by the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) Power Supply Relay 2 (J670).
Test procedure
- Observe safety precautions. Refer to => [ Safety Precautions ] Safety Precautions
- Observe Clean Working Conditions. Refer to => [ Clean Working Conditions ] Clean Working Conditions
- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to => [ Preliminary Check ] Preliminary Check.
Start diagnosis
- Remove the right rear wheel housing liner. Refer to Body Repair Information.
- 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:
If the specified values were not obtained:
- Replace the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) (-V144-). Refer to the Repair Information.
If the specified values are obtained:
Checking voltage supply
- Start the engine.
- Using a multimeter, check the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) (-V144-) electrical harness connector terminal 3 to ground for voltage.
Specified value: battery voltage.
- Switch the engine off.
If the specified value was not obtained:
- Check the wiring from the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) (-V144-) electrical harness connector terminal 3 to fuse 44 in Fuse Panel B for high resistance, an open circuit or a short circuit to Ground (GND).
- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.
- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.
If the specified value was obtained:
Checking output wiring
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 the Repair Information.
- Using a multimeter, check the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) (-V144-) electrical connector terminals to Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623) electrical connector T94 terminals for an open circuit.
Specified value: 1.5 ohms.
If the specified value is not obtained:
- Check the wiring for high resistance, an open or a short to voltage or ground.
- 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 ] Diagnostic Modes 01 - 09.
- Perform a road test to verify repair.
If the DTC does not return:
Generate readiness code. Refer to => [ Readiness Code ] Readiness Code.
If the DTC does return, no malfunction is detected in the wiring and the voltage supply is OK:
- Replace the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623). Refer to the Repair Information.
- 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 ] Diagnostic Modes 01 - 09.
2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Modes 01 - 09.
3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to => [ Readiness Code ] Readiness Code.
