12-29 FI SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS
“15” ECT SENSOR CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION
INSPECTION
Step 1
1) Stop the engine.
2) Check the ECT sensor coupler for loose or poor contacts.
If OK, then measure the ECT sensor voltage at the wire side
coupler.
3) Disconnect the ECT sensor coupler.
4) Connect a 12 volts battery using the battery lead wire to ser-
vice coupler. ("12-22)
5) Insert the needle pointed probes to the lead wire coupler.
6) Measure the voltage between B/Bl wire terminal

A and ground.
7) If OK, then measure the voltage between B/Bl wire terminal

A and B/Br wire terminal

B.

% Tester knob indication: Voltage (&)
Is the voltage OK?
DETECTED CONDITION POSSIBLE CAUSE
Output voltage is not within the following range.
0.1 V Sensor voltage < 4.8 V
• ECT sensor circuit open or short.
• ECT sensor malfunction.
• ECM malfunction.
CAUTION
When using the multi-circuit tester, do not strongly touch the terminal of the ECM coupler with
a needle pointed tester probe to prevent the terminal damage or terminal bend.
YES Go to Step 2.
NO
• Loose or poor contacts on the ECM coupler
(terminal

L or

N).
• Open or short circuit in the B/Bl wire or B/Br wire.
