DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tools:
- MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)
- MB991824: V.C.I.
- MB991827: USB Cable
- MB991910: Main Harness A

- MB992110: Power Plant ECU Check Harness
STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check actuator test item 1: No. 5 Injector.
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1)Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2)Start the engine and run at idle.
(3)Set scan tool MB991958 to the actuator testing mode for item 1, No. 5 injector.
(4)Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature: 80°C to 95°C
(176°F to 203°F).
- The idle should become slightly rougher.
(5)Turn
the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q. Is the actuator operating properly?
YES It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. How to Cope With Intermittent Malfunctions.
NO Go to Step 2.
STEP 2. Check for harness connector B- 21 at the intermediate connector and B-10 at the ECM for damage.
Q. Is the harness connector in good condition?
YES Go to Step 3.
NO Repair it. Harness Connector Inspection.
Then go to Step 9.
STEP 3. Measure the injector supply voltage at the intermediate connector harness B-21 and ground.
(1)Disconnect the intermediate connector B-21 and measure at the female connector side.
(2)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3)Measure the voltage between terminal No. 6 and ground.
- Voltage should be battery positive voltage.
(4)Turn
the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q. Is the measured resistance battery positive voltage?
YES Go to Step 4.
NO Check harness connector A-13 at intermediate connector for damage, and repair or replace as required. Harness Connector Inspection.
If intermediate connector is in good condition, repair harness wire between injector relay connector A-24X (terminal No. 3) and intermediate connector B-21 (terminal No. 6) because of open circuit.
Then go to Step 9.
STEP 4. Check the No. 5 cylinder injector resistance at intermediate connector B-21.
(1)Disconnect the intermediate connector B-21 and measure at male connector side.
(2)Measure the resistance between terminal No. 6 and No. 9.
- Resistance should be between 10.5 and 13.5 ohms.
Q. Is the measured resistance between 10.5 and 13.5 ohms?
YES Go to Step 7.
NO Go to Step 5.
STEP 5. Check the harness connector B-104 at No. 5 cylinder injector for damage.
Remove the intake manifold.
Q. Is the harness connector in good condition?
YES Go to Step 6.
NO Repair it. Harness Connector Inspection.
Then go to Step 9.
STEP 6. Check the No. 5 cylinder injector B-104.
(1)Disconnect the No. 5 cylinder injector connector B-104.
(2)Measure the resistance between injector side connector terminal No. 1 and No. 2.
Standard value: 10.5 - 13.5 ohms [at 20°C (68°F)]
Q. Is the measured resistance between 10.5 and 13.5 ohms [at 20°C (68°F)]?
YES
Repair harness wire between the intermediate connector B-21 (terminal No. 6) and the injector connector B-104 (terminal No. 1) and harness wire between injector connector B-104 (terminal No. 2) and intermediate connector B-21 (terminal No. 9) because of open circuit or short circuit to ground or harness damage.
Then go to Step 9.
NO Replace the No. 5 cylinder injector. Then go to Step 9.
STEP 7. Check for harness between the intermediate connector B-21and the ECM connector B-10.
(1)Disconnect the intermediate connector B-21 and the ECM connector B-10.
(2)Measure the resistance between the intermediate connector B-21 (terminal No. 9) and the ECM connector B-10 (terminal No. 50).
- Should be less than 2 ohms.
(3)Measure the continuity between the intermediate connector B-21 (terminal No. 9) and ground.
- Not continuity
Q. Is the harness wire in good condition?
YES Go to Step 8.
NO Repair it. Harness Connector Inspection.
Then go to Step 9.
STEP 8. Using the oscilloscope, check the No. 5 cylinder injector.
(1)Disconnect the intermediate connector B-21 and connect the test harness MB991658 between the separated connectors.
(2)Connect the oscilloscope probe to injector intermediate connector terminal to No. 9.
NOTE:
When measuring with the ECM side connector, disconnect all ECM connectors. Connect the check harness special tool (MB992110) between the separated connectors. Then connect an oscilloscope probe to the check harness connector terminal No. 50.
(3)Start the engine and run at idle.
(4)Measure the waveform.
- The waveform should show a normal pattern similar to the illustration.
(5)Turn
the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q. Is the waveform normal?
YES It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. How to Cope With Intermittent Malfunctions.
NO Replace the ECM. When the ECM is replaced, register the ID code. Refer to ID registration procedure manual - ID codes registration judgement table [Vehicles with KOS] or ID registration procedure manual - ID codes registration judgement table [Vehicles with WCM]. Then go to Step 9.
STEP 9. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
(1)Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to Diagnostic Function - OBD-II Drive Cycle - Pattern 22 Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes.
(2)Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q. Is DTC P0205 set?
YES Retry the troubleshooting.
NO The inspection is complete.
