MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <2.4L ENGINE>

13A-775

STEP 1. Measure the voltage at ECM connector B-10 by 
using poor plant ECU check harness special tool 
MB992110.
(1) Disconnect all ECM connectors. Connect the power plant 

ECU check harness special tool MB992110 between the 
separated connectors.

(2) Start the engine and run at idle.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 60 and ground.

NOTE: Vehicle for Canada, the headlight, taillight, etc. 
remain lit even when the lighting switch is in "OFF" position 
but this is no problem for checks.

a. Engine: warming up, idling
b. Radiator fan: stopped

c. Headlight: OFF to ON

d. Stop light: OFF to ON
e. Rear defogger switch: OFF to ON

• Voltage increases

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the measured voltage within the specified range?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Replace the generator. Then confirm that the 

malfunction symptom is eliminated.

STEP 2. Check harness connector B-10 at ECM connector 
and harness connector B-118 at generator connector for 
damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then confirm that the 

malfunction symptom is eliminated.

STEP 3. Check for short circuit to ground between 
generator connector B-118 (terminal No. 1) and ECM 
connector B-10 (terminal No. 60).
Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Replace the ECM. When the ECM is replaced, 

register the ID code. Refer to GROUP 42B, Diagnosis

.

NO :  Repair it. Then confirm that the malfunction symptom 

is eliminated.

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• Battery positive voltage is applied to the MFI 

relay (terminals No. 3, No. 4).

• When the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" 

position, battery positive voltage is applied to the 
ECM (terminal No. 92). When battery positive 
voltage is applied, the ECM turns the power tran-
sistor in the ECM "ON" and grounds the MFI relay 
coil. With this, the MFI relay turns "ON" the bat-
tery positive voltage is supplied to the ECM (ter-
minals No. 82) from the MFI relay (terminal No. 
2).

• A battery positive voltage is constantly supplied 

to the ECM (terminal No. 104) as the backup 
power.

• The ECM (terminals No. 81, No. 93) is grounded 

to the vehicle body.

.

COMMENT

• When the ignition switch "ON" signal is input into 

the ECM via ETACS-ECU, the ECM turns "ON" 
the MFI relay. This causes battery positive volt-
age to be supplied to the ECM, sensor and actua-
tor.

.

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

• Malfunction of the ignition switch.

• Malfunction of the MFI relay.

• Open of shorted power supply and ignition 

Switch-IG circuit, harness damage, or connector 
damage.

• Malfunction of the ECM.
