When ECM receives a trouble code from TCM, which indicates that some problem occurred in sensor circuits and its
calculated values used for operations such as idle speed control, engine power control, and so on by TCM, ECM sets
DTC P1603. (TCM outputs the trouble code to ECM when TCM can not compute the engine control signal due to
malfunctions of sensor circuits used for gear shift control.) Step Action Yes No

Inspection of ECM and Its CircuitsS7RS0B1104079
ECM and its circuits can be checked by measuring voltage, pulse signal and resistance with special tool connected.
CAUTION!
ECM cannot be checked by itself. It is strictly prohibited to connect voltmeter or ohmmeter to ECM
with ECM connectors disconnected from it.
Voltage Check
1) Remove ECM (1) from its bracke t referring to “ECM Removal and Installation in Section 1C”.
2) Connect special tool between EC M and ECM connectors securely.
Special tool
(A): 09933–06320
3) Check voltage and/or pulse signal us ing voltmeter (2) and oscilloscope (3).
NOTE
• As each terminal voltage is affected by battery voltag e, confirm that it is 11 V or more when ignition
switch is turned ON.
• Voltage with asterisk (*) cannot be measured with voltmeter because it is pulse signal. Use oscilloscope for its check if necessary.
• Before this inspection, be sure to read the “Precautions of ECM Circuit Inspection”.
