CIRCUIT OPERATION
  • MFI relay is built into the IPDM E/R.
  • Power is supplied from the MFI relay to each fuel injector connector (terminal number 2).
  • The ECM connector terminal number 3, 4, 5, 6 turn on the power transistor in the unit, and electrical current flows to each fuel injector connector (terminal number 1).
 
 
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The amount of fuel injected by the fuel injector is controlled by the amount of continuity time the coil is grounded by the ECM.
 
 
DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
The ECM detects open circuit and short malfunction.
 
 
MONITOR EXECUTION
Continuous.
 
 
MONITOR EXECUTION CONDITIONS (Other monitor and Sensor)
Other Monitor (There is no temporary DTC set in memory for the item monitored below)
  • Not applicable
Sensor (The sensor below is determined to be normal)
  • Not applicable
 
 
DTC SET CONDITIONS
Logic Flow Chart
Check Conditions
  • Power supply mode of electric motor switch is ON.
  • 12V battery positive voltage is between 10.0 and 16.5 volts.
Judgment Criterion
  • The supply voltage is 3 volts or lower without the fuel injector driving for 2 seconds.
 
 
FAIL-SAFE AND BACKUP FUNCTION
None.
 
 
OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN
Refer to Diagnostic Function, OBD-II Drive Cycle – Pattern 1 OBD- II DRIVE CYCLE.
 
 
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely causes for this code to be set are:)
  • Fuel injector failed.
  • Open or shorted fuel injector circuit, harness damage or connector damage.
  • ECM failed.
 
 
DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tools:
  • MB992744: Vehicle communication interface-Lite (V.C.I.-Lite)
  • MB992745: V.C.I.-Lite main harness A
  • MB992747: V.C.I.-Lite USB cable short
  • MB992748: V.C.I.-Lite USB cable long
1.STEP 1. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), perform the actuator test.
Use scan tool (M.U.T.-III SE) to perform the actuator test (Refer to ACTUATOR TEST REFERENCE TABLE).
  • Item number 10: Injection cut
OK: Idling state varies.

3.Perform voltage measurement at number 1 cylinder fuel injector connector terminal number 2, number 2 cylinder fuel injector connector terminal number 2, number 3 cylinder fuel injector connector terminal number 2 and number 4 cylinder fuel injector connector terminal number 2.
  • Disconnect connector, and measure at harness side.
  • Power supply mode of electric motor switch: ON
  • Voltage between each cylinder fuel injector connectors terminal number 2 and ground.
OK: 12V battery positive voltage
