6-1-36 ENGINE GENERAL INFORMATION AND DIAGNOSIS (H27 ENGINE)
Inspection of PCM (ECM) and its Circuits
PCM (ECM) and its circuits can be checked at PCM (ECM) wiring
couplers by measuring voltage and resistance.
VOLTAGE CHECK
1) Remove PCM (ECM) cover from bracket referring to PCM
(ECM) REMOVAL.
2) Check voltage at each terminal of couplers connected.CAUTION:
PCM/ECM cannot be checked by itself. It is strictly pro-
hibited to connect voltmeter or ohmmeter to PCM (ECM)
with couplers 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.

2. PCM (ECM) connector (Viewed from harness side)

RESISTANCE CHECK
1) Disconnect couplers (1) from ECM/PCM with ignition switch
OFF.
2) Check resistance between each pair of terminals of discon-
nected couplers (1) as listed in following table. CAUTION:
Never touch terminals of ECM/PCM itself or connect volt-
meter or ohmmeter (2).
CAUTION:
Be sure to connect ohmmeter (2) probe from wire har-
ness side of coupler.
Be sure to turn OFF ignition switch for this check.
Resistance in table represents that when parts temper-
ature is 20°C (68°F).
