 Refer to, Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart .
 Go to Step 2.
|
|
|
STEP 2. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list.
|
|
|
(1)Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
|
|
|
(2)Check the following items in the data list. Refer to Data List Reference Table .
- Item 10: Mass Airflow Sensor.
- Item 11: Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (main).
- Item 12: Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor (sub).
|
|
|
(3)Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
|
|
|
Q.
Are they operating properly?
|
|
|
Go to Step 3.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Repair or replace it. Then go to Step 10.
|
|
|
|
|
|
STEP 3. Check for intake system vacuum leak.
|
|
|
Q.
Are there any abnormalities?
|
|
|
Repair it. Then go to Step 10.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Go to Step 4.
|
|
|
|
|
|
STEP 4. Check for foreign matter being around the mass airflow sensor.
|
|
|
Q.
Are there any foreign matter?
|
|
|
Repair it. Then go to Step 10.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Go to Step 5.
|
|
|
|
|
|
STEP 5. Check harness connector B-10 at throttle actuator control
motor and harness connector B-108 at ECM for damage.
|
|
|
Q.
Is the harness connector in good condition?
|
|
|
Go to Step 6.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection .
Then go to Step 10.
|
|
|
|
|
|
STEP 6. Check the throttle actuator control motor.
|
|
(1)Disconnect the connector B-10.
(2)Measure the resistance between throttle actuator control motor side connector terminal
No. 1 and No. 2.
Standard value: 0.3 - 80 Ω [at 20°C (68°C)]
Q.
Is the measured resistance between 0.3 and 80 Ω [at 20°C
(68°C)?
Go to Step 7.
Replace the throttle body assembly. Then go Step 10.
|
|
|
STEP 7. Check for harness damage between throttle actuator control
motor connector B-10 (terminal No. 1) and PCM connector B-108 (terminal No. 15).
|
|
|
Q.
Is the harness wire in good condition?
|
|
|
Go to Step 8.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Repair it. Then go to Step 10.
|
|
|
|
|
|
STEP 8. Check for harness damage between throttle actuator control
motor connector B-10 (terminal No. 2) and PCM connector B-108 (terminal No. 16).
|
|
|
Q.
Is the harness wire in good condition?
|
|
|
Go to Step 9.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Repair it. Then go to Step 10.
|
|
|
|
|
|
STEP 9. Check the trouble symptoms.
|
|
|
(1)Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to Diagnostic Function - OBD-II
Drive Cycle Pattern 17 .
|
|
|
(2)Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
|
|
|
Replace the ECM. When the ECM is replaced, register the ID code. Refer to GROUP
42B, Diagnosis - ID Code Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles with KOS> or
GROUP 42C, Diagnosis - ID Codes Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles with WCM> .
Then go to Step 10.
|
|
|
|
|
|
It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. Refer to GROUP 00, How
to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions .
|
|
|
|
|
|
STEP 10. 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 17 .
|
|
|
(2)Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
|
|
|
Retry the troubleshooting.
