CAUTION: Use the check board when measuring the ECM terminal voltage and resistance. Ref. to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DO 2.5)>GENERAL DESCRIPTION>PREPARATION TOOL>HOW TO USE CHECK BOARD .

NOTE: After the faulty parts are repaired or replaced, perform the final check in Basic Diagnostic Procedure. Ref. to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DO 2.5)>BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE>PROCEDURE .

CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR CONNECTOR (OPEN) .
1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2. Disconnect the connector from ECM.
3. Disconnect the connector from the accelerator pedal position sensor.
4. Measure the resistance of harness between ECM connector and accelerator pedal position sensor connector.
Connector and terminal

(B134) No. 55 - (B315) No. 5:

(B134) No. 66 - (B315) No. 6:

Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?

Yes: Go to 2.

No: Repair the open circuit of harness between ECM connector and accelerator pedal position sensor connector.
CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR CONNECTOR (OPEN) .
1. Connect the connector to ECM.
2. Measure the resistance between accelerator pedal position sensor connector and chassis ground.
Connector and terminal

(B315) No. 5 - Chassis ground:

Is the resistance less than 5 Ω?

Yes: Go to 3.

No: Repair the following item.
- Open circuit of harness between ECM connector and engine ground
- Poor contact of ECM connector
CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR (SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY) .
1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2. Measure the voltage between accelerator pedal position sensor connector and chassis ground.
Connector and terminal

(B315) No. 6 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

Is the voltage 5 V or more?

Yes: Repair the short circuit to power supply in harness between ECM connector and accelerator pedal position sensor connector.

No: Go to 4.
CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR (SHORT BETWEEN LINES) .
1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2. Disconnect the connector from ECM.
3. Measure the resistance between ECM connectors.
Connector and terminal

(B134) No. 51 - (B134) No. 66:

Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more?

Yes: Repair the poor contact of accelerator pedal position sensor connector. Replace the accelerator pedal assembly if defective. Ref. to SPEED CONTROL SYSTEMS (H4DO (EXCEPT FOR HEV))>ACCELERATOR PEDAL .

No: Repair the short circuit between lines in harness between ECM connector and accelerator pedal position sensor connector.
