CHECK ECM CONNECTOR .
Check the connecting condition of ECM connector.

Is the ECM connector correctly connected?

Yes: Go to 2.

No: Connect the ECM connector correctly.
CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND M/B (MAIN RELAY) (SHORT TO GROUND) .
1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2. Remove the M/B (main relay).
3. Disconnect the connector from ECM.
4. Measure the resistance between the ECM connector and engine ground.
  Connector & terminal
  
  (B134) No. 12 - Engine ground:
  
  Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more?
  
  Yes: Go to 3.
  
  No: Repair the short circuit to ground in harness between ECM connector and M/B (main relay) connector.
CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND M/B (MAIN RELAY) (SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY) .
1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2. Measure the voltage between ECM connector and engine ground.
  Connector & terminal
  
  (B134) No. 67 (+) - Engine ground (-):
  
  (B134) No. 68 (+) - Engine ground (-):
  
  Is the voltage 10 V or more?
  
  Yes: Repair the short circuit to power supply in harness between ECM connector and M/B (main relay).
  
  No: Go to 4.
CHECK M/B (MAIN RELAY) .
1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2. Check the M/B (main relay). Ref. to FUEL INJECTION (FUEL SYSTEMS) (H4DO (HEV))>MAIN RELAY>INSPECTION .
  Is the check result OK?
  
  Yes: Repair the poor contact of ECM connector.
  
  No: Replace the M/B (main relay). Ref. to FUEL INJECTION (FUEL SYSTEMS) (H4DO (HEV))>MAIN RELAY .
