INJECTORS
NWXAHCHECKING OPERATION SOUND
Using a sound-scope, check the operation sound (“chi-chi-chi”)of the injectors during idling or during cranking.
Check to be sure that the operation sound increases when the
engine speed is increased.
Caution
Note that the sounds of other injectors may be heard even
though the injector being checked is not operating, so caremust be taken when checking.
NOTEIf the operation sounds cannot be heard, check the injector
activation circuit.
If this circuit is normal, there is probably a malfunction of the
injector or of the engine control unit.
MEASURING OF RESISTANCE BETWEEN TERMINALS
(1) Disconnect the connector for the injectors.
(2) Measure the resistance between terminals.
Standard value:
13
-16 S2 [at 20°C (68”F)]2
- 3 52 [at 20% (68”F)]
(3) Connect the connector for the injectors.
IDLE SPEED CONTROL SERVO
N14QUADCHECKING OPERATING SOUND
(1) Check that when the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position (the engine not started), the operating sound of thestepper motor can be heard over the idle speed control
servo.
(2) If no operating sound can be heard, check the stepper
motor drive circuit.
(If the circuit is good, a defective stepper motor or engine
control unit is suspected.)
