Caution
•The PCM terminal voltages vary with change in measuring conditions and vehicle conditions.
Always carry out a total inspection of the input systems, output systems, and PCM to determine
the cause of trouble. Otherwise, a wrong diagnosis will be made.
1. Measure the voltage at each terminal.
•If any incorrect voltage is detected, inspect the related system(s), wiring harnesses and connector(s)
referring to the Action column in the terminal voltage table.

(2) Apply a slight amount of clean engine oil to
the sealing surface of the fuel pump unit.
(3) Align the fuel pipe on the fuel pump unit and
quick release connector so that the tabs of the
retainer are correctly fitted into the quick
release connector. Push the quick release
connector straight into the retainer until a click
is heard.
(4) Lightly pull and push the quick release
connector a few times by hand and verify that
it can move 2.0—3.0 mm {0.08—0.11 in} and
it is connected securely.
•If the quick release connector does not
move at all, verify that O-ring is not
damaged of that is has not slipped, and reconnect the quick release connector.
2. When the retainer is removed, perform the following procedure.

FUEL TANK INSPECTIONA6E401242110202
Caution
•Disconnecting/connecting the quick release connector without cleaning it may possibly cause
damage to the fuel pipe and quick release connector. Always clean the quick release connector
joint area before disconnecting/connecting using a cloth or soft brush, and make sure that it is
free of foreign material.
Note
•This inspection is for two rollover valves and check valve (two-way) integrated in the fuel tank.
1. Remove the fuel tank with the fuel gauge sender unit. (See F2–45 FUEL TANK REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
2. Plug the fuel pipe of the fuel gauge sender unit.
3. Plug port C.
4. Connect the pump to port B.
5. Level the fuel tank.
6. Apply pressure of +2.0 kpa {+34 mmHg, +1.3
inHg} to port B.
(1) Verify there is airflow from port A.
•If there is no airflow, replace the fuel tank.
7. Apply pressure of –5.9 kPa {–44 mmHg, –1.7
inHg} to port B.
•If there is no vacuum, replace the fuel tank.
•If there is vacuum, turn the fuel tank
upside-down and proceed to next step.
8. Apply pressure of +2.0 kPa {+15 mmHg, +0.6
inHg} to port B.
(1) Verify there is no airflow from port A.
•If there is airflow, replace the fuel tank.

NO.16 HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION/LEAKAGEA6E408018881218
Diagnostic Procedure
16 HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION/LEAKAGE
DESCRIPTION•Oil consumption is excessive.

•Improper dipstick
•Improper engine oil viscosity
•Engine internal parts malfunction
•Oil leakage
•Turbocharger malfunction
STEP INSPECTION RESULTS ACTION
1 Verify following:
•Proper dipstick
•Proper engine viscosity
•Engine oil level
Are all items okay?Yes Go to next step.
No Service as necessary.
Repeat Step 1.
2 Remove to necessary to inspect turbocharger.

NO.21 ENGINE NOISEA6E408018881223
Diagnostic Procedure
21 ENGINE NOISE
DESCRIPTION•Engine noise under hood.
POSSIBLE
CAUSE•Engine internal damage
•Timing belt displacement
•Fuel injector malfunction
•Loose attaching bolts or worn parts
•Improper drive belt tension
•Air leakage from intake-air system
•Incorrect injection timing
•Erratic signal from CKP sensor
•Erratic signal from CMP sensor
•Fuel pressure sensor or related circuit malfunction
•Boost sensor or related circuit malfunction
•Accelerator position sensor or related circuit malfunction

•Vacuum leakage
•Suction control valve malfunction (built-in supply pump)
•Air leakage from intake-air system
•Air in power steering fluid line
•Turbocharger operating noise
•Solenoid valve operating noise
Warning
The following troubleshooting flow chart contains the fuel system diagnosis and repair
procedures. Read the following warnings before performing the fuel system services:
•Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always keep
sparks and flames away from fuel.
•Fuel line spills and leakage are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injury or death
and damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete “BEFORE
REPAIR PROCEDURE” and “AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE” described in this manual.
Note
•PCM checks fuel injection amount during a set interval while idling, and automatically corrects it to
maintain engine efficiency. It is normal that engine noise and vibration might be a little louder during
this process.
STEP INSPECTION RESULTS ACTION
1 Is squeal, click or chirp sound present? Yes Inspect engine oil level, solenoid valves installation or
drive belt.
No Go to next step.
2 Is rumble or grind sound present? Yes Inspect drive belt tension or power steering system
fluid level.
If okay, perform power steering fluid line air bleed.
No Go to next step.
3 Is rattle sound present? Yes Inspect location of rattle for loose parts.
No Go to next step.
4 Is hiss sound present? Yes Inspect for vacuum leakage and intake-air system
leakage.
No Go to next step.
5 Is rap or roar sound present? Yes Inspect exhaust system or loose parts.
No Go to next step.
