6-36 ENGINE GENERAL INFORMATION AND DIAGNOSIS
INSPECTION OF ECM AND ITS CIRCUITS
ECM and its circuits can be checked at ECM wiring couplers by
measuring voltage and resistance.
VOLTAGE CHECK
1) Remove ECM (1) from vehicle body referring to Section 6E.
2) Check voltage at each terminal of couplers (2) connected.CAUTION:
ECM cannot be checked by itself. It is strictly prohibited
to connect voltmeter or ohmmeter to ECM with coupler
disconnected from it.
NOTE:
As each terminal voltage is affected by the battery volt-
age, confirm that it is 11 V or more when ignition switch
is ON.
