Diagnosis Procedure
1.CHECK GROUND CONNECTION-I
- Turn ignition switch OFF.
- Check ground connection E9. Refer to Ground Inspection
2.CHECK ECM GROUND CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT-I
- Disconnect ECM harness connector.
- Check the continuity between ECM harness connector and ground.
- Also check harness for short to power.

3.DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART
Check the following.
- Harness connectors E11, F2
- Harness for open or short between ECM and ground
4.CHECK ECM POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT-I

- Reconnect ECM harness connector.
- Turn ignition switch OFF and then ON.
- Check the voltage between ECM harness connectors.

5.DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART
Check the following.
- IPDM E/R connector E18
- 10 A fuse (No. 35)
- Harness for open or short between ECM and fuse
6.CHECK ECM POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT-II

- Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
- Check the voltage between ECM harness connectors.

7.CHECK ECM POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT-III

- Turn ignition switch ON.
- Check the voltage between IPDM E/R harness connector and
ground.

8.CHECK INTERMITTENT INCIDENT
9.CHECK ECM POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT-IV

- Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
- Check the voltage between ECM harness connectors.

10.CHECK ECM POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT-V
- Disconnect ECM harness connector.
- Disconnect IPDM E/R harness connector.
- Check the continuity between ECM harness connector and IPDM E/R
harness connector.
- Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.

11.CHECK 15 A FUSE
