2 + 3 15 to 17 Ohms

If specified values are not obtained:
- Replace Leak Detection Pump (LDP) -V144- item 9,

If specified values are obtained:

Checking voltage supply







- Connect multimeter for voltage measurement as follows:

Harness connector Measure to
Terminal

3 Engine Ground (GND)

- Operate starter briefly.
- Specified value: approx. battery voltage
- Switch ignition off.

If specified value is not obtained:
- Check wire connection from harness connector terminal 3 to Fuel Pump (FP) Relay -J17- via fuse for open circuit according to wiring diagram.
- Specified value: Wire resistance max 1.5 Ohms
- If necessary, repair wire connection.

If voltage supply is OK:

Checking wire connections
