MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <2.4L ENGINE>

13A-826

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• The PCM checks the open circuit of battery 

backup line.

NOTE: When the system detects an open circuit in 
the battery backup line, it makes 1 failure judgment 
of other diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs).

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
Battery backup line voltage is under specified value.

.

MONITOR EXECUTION
Continuous

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <2.4L ENGINE>

13A-827

Judgement Criteria

• Battery backup line voltage has continued to be 6 

volts or lower for 2 seconds.

.

OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN
None.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely 
causes for this code to be set are:)

• Open or shorted battery backup line, harness 

damage or connector damage.

• PCM failed.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991910: Main Harness A

• MB991923: Power Plant ECU Check Harness

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic 
trouble code (DTC).

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Erase the DTC.
(4) Start the engine and run it at idle.
(5) Read the DTC.
(6) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC P1603 set?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  The inspection is complete.

STEP 2. Measure the backup power supply voltage at PCM 
connector B-20 by using power plant ECU check harness 
special tool MB991923.

(1) Disconnect the all PCM connectors and connect power 

plant ECU check harness special tool MB991923 between 
the separated connectors.
