ENGINE GENERAL INFORMATION AND DIAGNOSIS (H27 ENGINE) 6-1-43
Table A-1 Malfunction Indicator Lamp Circuit Check – Lamp Does Not Come
“ON” or Dims at Ignition Switch ON (But Engine at Stop)
WIRING DIAGRAM
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
When the ignition switch is turned ON, ECM causes the main relay to turn ON (close the contact point). Then,
ECM being supplied with the main power, turns ON the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL). When the engine
starts to run and no malfunction is detected in the system, MIL goes OFF but if a malfunction was or is detected,
MIL remains ON even when the engine is running.
INSPECTION
1. MIL
2. To ignition switch
3. Main fuse
4. Main relay
5. ECM (PCM)
6. Monitor connector (if equipped)
Step Action Yes No
1 MIL power supply check :
1) Turn ignition switch ON.
Do other indicator/warning lights in combination
meter comes ON?Go to Step 2. “IG METER” fuse blown,
main fuse blown, Ignition
switch malfunction, “BLK/
WHT” circuit between “IG
METER” fuse and combi-
nation meter or poor cou-
pler connection at
combination meter.

Table A-2 Malfunction Indicator Lamp Circuit Check – Lamp Remains “ON”
after Engine Starts
WIRING DIAGRAM/CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Refer to TABLE A-1.
INSPECTION
2 ECM power and ground circuit check :
Does engine start?Go to Step 3. Go to “TABLE A-3 ECM
(PCM) POWER AND
GROUND CIRCUIT
CHECK” in this section.
If engine is not cranked,
go to “DIAGNOSIS” in
Section 6G.
3 MIL circuit check :
1) Turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect
connectors from ECM.
2) Check for proper connection to ECM at ter-
minal E61-7.
3) If OK, then using service wire, ground termi-
nal E61-7 in connector disconnected.
Does MIL turn on at ignition switch ON?Substitute a known-good
ECM (PCM) and recheck.Bulb burned out or “PPL/
YEL” wire circuit open. Step Action Yes No
Step Action Yes No
1 DTC check :
1) With ignition switch OFF, install scan tool.
2) Start engine and check DTC.
Is there any malfunction DTC (s).Go to Step 2 of “ENGINE
DIAG. FLOW TABLE” in
this section.Go to Step 2.
2 MIL circuit check :
1) With ignition switch OFF, disconnect cou-
plers from ECM (PCM).
Does MIL turn ON at ignition switch ON?“PPL/YEL” wire shorted to
ground circuit.Substitute a known-good
ECM (PCM) and recheck.

Remains ON Even with Grounding Diagnosis Switch Terminal (Vehicle with
Monitor Connector)
WIRING DIAGRAM/CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Refer to TABLE A-1.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Step Action Yes No
1 MIL Flashing Pattern check:
1) Turn ignition switch ON.
Does lamp flashing pattern indicate diagnostic
trouble code?Go to Step 2. Go to “Diagnosis” in Sec-
tion 8G.
2 Diag. Switch Circuit check:
Is diag. switch terminal connected to ground via
service wire?System is in good condi-
tion.“YEL” circuit shorted to
ground. If circuit is OK
substitute a known-good
ECM (PCM) and recheck.
Step Action Yes No
1 MIL Circuit check:
1) Turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect
connectors from ECM (PCM).
Does MIL turn ON at ignition switch ON?“PPL/YEL” circuit shorted
to ground.Go to Step 2.
2 ECM (PCM) Connection check:
1) Turn ignition switch OFF.
Is connector (E61-29 connection) connected to
ECM (PCM) properly?Go to Step 3. Poor connector connec-
tion.
3 Diag. switch Terminal Circuit check:
1) Connect connectors to ECM (PCM).
2) Using service wire, ground E61-29 terminal
with connectors connected to ECM (PCM).
3) Turn ignition switch ON.
Does MIL flash?“YEL” or “BLK” circuit
open.Substitute a known-good
ECM (PCM) and recheck.
