.

Check Conditions

• Engine is being cranked.

• Battery positive voltage is between 10 and 16.5 

volts.

.

Judgement Criteria

• The evaporative emission purge solenoid coil 

surge voltage (battery positive voltage + 2 volts) 
is not detected for 0.2 second.

• The ECM monitors for this condition once during 

the drive cycle.

Check Conditions

• Battery positive voltage is between 10 and 16.5 

volts.

• ON duty cycle of the evaporative emission purge 

solenoid is between 10 and 90 percent.

• Evaporative emission ventilation solenoid is off.

• More than 1 second has elapsed after the above 

mentioned conditions have been met. 

Judgement Criterion

• The evaporative emission purge solenoid coil 

surge voltage (battery positive voltage + 2 volts) 
is not detected for 1 second after the evaporative 
emission purge solenoid is turned off.

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <3.0L ENGINE>

13B-486

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991910: Main Harness A

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check actuator test 
item 10: Evaporative Emission Purge Solenoid.

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) Set scan tool MB991958 to the actuator test mode for item 

10, Evaporative emission purge solenoid.

• An operation sound should be heard and vibration 

should be felt when the evaporative emission purge 
solenoid is operated.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the solenoid operating properly?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. 

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use 
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points 

− How to 

Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions 

P.00-15

.

NO :  Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check harness connector A-33X at the MFI relay 
and harness connector B-07 at the evaporative emission 
purge solenoid and harness connector B-10 at the ECM for 
damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

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

Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 7.

STEP 3. Check the evaporative emission purge solenoid.
(1) Disconnect the evaporative emission purge solenoid 

connector B-07.

(2) Measure the resistance between evaporative emission 

purge solenoid side connector terminal No. 1 and No. 2.

Standard value: 22 

− 26 Ω [at 20°C (68°F)]

Q: Is the measured resistance between 22 and 26 ohms [at 

20

°C (68°F)]?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO :  Replace the evaporative emission purge solenoid. 

Then go to Step 7.

STEP 4. Measure the power supply voltage at the 
evaporative emission purge solenoid connector B-07.
(1) Disconnect the evaporative emission purge solenoid 

connector B-07 and measure at the harness side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 2 and ground.

• Voltage should be battery positive voltage.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the measured voltage between 4.9 and 5.1 volts?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO :  Repair it. Then go to Step 7.

STEP 5. Check for open circuit and short circuit to ground 
and harness damage between the evaporative emission 
purge solenoid connector B-07 and the ECM connector 
B-10.
(1) Disconnect the evaporative emission purge solenoid 

connector B-07 and the ECM connector B-10.

(2) Measure the evaporative emission purge solenoid 

connector B-07 (terminal No. 1) and the ECM connector 
B-10 (terminal No. 37).

• Should be less than 2 ohms.

(3) Check for the evaporative emission purge solenoid 

connector B-07 (terminal No. 1) and ground.

• Not continuity.

Q: Is the harness wire in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  Repair it. Then go to Step 7.
