Inspection Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

HINT:

Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

  1. CHECK FUSE (ETCS) 
    1. Remove the ETCS fuse from the engine room R/B No. 2.
    2. Measure the resistance of the ETCS fuse.

    1. NG: REPLACE FUSE 
    2. OK: GO TO NEXT STEP. 
  2. INSPECT ECM (+BM VOLTAGE) 
    1. Measure the voltage of the ECM connectors.
