Diagnostic Procedure

STEP	INSPECTION		ACTION
1	VERIFY RELATED REPAIR INFORMATION AVAILABILITY Verify related Service Bulletins and/or on-line repair information availability. Is any related repair information available?	Yes	Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available repair information. If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.
1		No	Go to the next step.
2	INSPECT DRIVE BELT CONDITION Verify that the drive belt auto tensioner indicator mark does not exceed limit. (See DRIVE BELT INSPECTION .) Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Replace the drive belt, then go to Step 8. (See DRIVE BELT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
2		No	Go to the next step.
3	INSPECT GENERATOR CONNECTOR CONDITION Switch the ignition to off. Disconnect the generator connector. Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion). Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Repair or replace the connector and/or terminals, then go to Step 8.
3		No	Go to the next step.
4	INSPECT GENERATOR CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND Verify that the generator connector is disconnected. Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (wiring harness-side) and body ground: Generator terminal D Generator terminal P Is there continuity?	Yes	If the short to ground circuit could be detected: Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to ground. If the short to ground circuit could not be detected: Replace the PCM (short to ground in the PCM internal circuit). (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .) Go to Step 8.
4		No	Go to the next step.
5	INSPECT PCM CONNECTOR CONDITION Disconnect the PCM connector. Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion). Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Repair or replace the connector and/or terminals, then go to Step 8.
5		No	Go to the next step.
6	INSPECT GENERATOR CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT Verify that the generator and PCM connectors are disconnected. Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (wiring harness-side): Generator terminal D-PCM terminal 2AA Generator terminal P-PCM terminal 2AF Is there continuity?	Yes	Go to the next step.
6		No	Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible open circuit, then go to Step 8.
7	INSPECT GENERATOR Inspect the generator. (See GENERATOR INSPECTION [MZR 2.5] .) Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results, then go to the next step. (See GENERATOR DISASSEMBLY/ASSEMBLY [MZR 2.5] .) (See GENERATOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [MZR 2.5] .)
7		No	Go to the next step.
8	VERIFY DTC TROUBLESHOOTING COMPLETED Make sure to reconnect all disconnected connectors. Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS. (See AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE .) Perform the KOER self test. (See KOEO/KOER SELF TEST .) Is the same DTC present?	Yes	Repeat the inspection from Step 1. If the malfunction recurs, replace the PCM. (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .) Go to the next step.
8		No	Go to the next step.
9	VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE Perform the "AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE". (See AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE .) Are any DTCs present?	Yes	Go to the applicable DTC inspection. (See DTC TABLE .)
9		No	DTC troubleshooting completed.
