MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS
TSB Revision
MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <3.0L>
13B-278
.
CIRCUIT OPERATION
•
5-volt voltage is applied to the fuel temperature
sensor output terminal (terminal 3) from the ECM
(terminal 96) <M/T> or PCM (terminal 51) <A/T>
via the resistor in the ECM <M/T> or PCM <A/T>.
•
The fuel temperature sensor output voltage
increases when the resistance increases and
decreases when the resistance decreases. The
ground terminal (terminal 1) is grounded to the
vehicle body.
.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
•
The fuel temperature sensor converts the fuel
temperature to a voltage.
•
The ECM <M/T> or PCM<A/T> detects the fuel
temperature in the fuel tank with this output volt-
age.
.
DTC SET CONDITIONS
Check Conditions
•
2 seconds or more have passed since the start-
ing sequence was completed.
Judgement Criteria
•
Sensor output voltage has continued to be 4.6
volts or higher for 2 seconds.
.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely
causes for this code to be set are: )
•
Fuel temperature sensor failed.
•
Open or shorted fuel temperature sensor circuit,
or loose connector.
•
ECM failed. <M/T>
•
PCM failed. <A/T>
DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tools
•
MB991502: Scan Tool (MUT-II)
STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991502, check data list item
4A: Fuel Temperature Sensor.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to scan tool MB991502, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991502.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991502 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Set scan tool MB991502 to the data reading mode for item
4A, Fuel Temperature Sensor.
•
Approximately the same as the outside temperature
when the engine is cooled.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the sensor operating properly?
YES :
It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.
Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/
Inspection Service Points
NO :
Go to Step 2.
