Test Procedure

Step	Procedure	Result / Action to Take
1	PERFORM: Preliminary Check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to PRELIMINARY CHECK . -- Was Complaint verified?	-- YES: GO TO: Step 2 -- NO: GATHER more information from customer about the complaint.
2	IGNITION: OFF. DISCONNECT: Harness connector from suspect Fuel Injector --. CHECK: Suspect Fuel Injector -- component connector terminals 1 to 2 for resistance (refer to the wiring diagram for proper terminal locations). SPECIFIED VALUE: 0.5 - 15 Ω (@ approx. 20° C). -- Was Value obtained?	-- YES: GO TO: Step 3 -- NO: REPLACE: Suspect Fuel Injector -- (s). Refer to appropriate repair information. GO TO: Step 4
3	REMOVE: Engine Control Module - J623-. Refer to appropriate repair information. CHECK: Suspect Fuel Injector -- harness connector terminal 1 to the Engine Control Module - J623- harness connector T60 / xx for resistance (refer to the wiring diagram for proper terminal locations). CHECK: Suspect Fuel Injector -- harness connector terminal 2 to the Engine Control Module - J623- harness connector T60 / xx for resistance (refer to the wiring diagram for proper terminal locations). SPECIFIED VALUE: 0.5 Ω (± 0.3 Ω). -- Were Values obtained?	-- YES: TIP: The Fuel Injector -- may fail under loaded operation; please swap a known good Fuel Injector -- prior to continuing to the next step. GO TO: Step 4 -- NO: PERFORM: Visual Inspection of wiring and component. CHECK: Wiring for open, high resistance, short or harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals. REPAIR: Faulty wiring or connector. GO TO: Step 4
4	Final Procedure Perform a road test to verify repair. -- Does the original DTC return?	-- YES: CHECK: Engine Control Module -J623- harness connector for any damaged, pushed-out pins. REPAIR: As necessary. If all electrical connections are OK: REPLACE: Engine Control Module -J623-. Refer to appropriate repair information. Clear the DTCs.
