Signal Circuit Inspection

  1. Check voltage
    1. IG "OFF" and disconnect TPS connector.
    2. IG "ON" and ENG "OFF"
    3. Measure voltage between terminal 7 of TPS harness connector and chassis ground.

      Specification: Approx. 5V

    4. Is the measured voltage within specification?

      YES 

      • Go to step  3.

      NO 

      • Go to step  2.
  2. Check open in harness
    1. IG "OFF" and disconnect TPS connector and ECM connector.
    2. Measure resistance between terminal 7 of TPS harness connector and terminal 48 of ECM harness connector (C144-B).

      Specification: Below 1Ω

    3. Is the measured resistance within specification?

      YES 

      NO 

  3. Check short to battery in harness
    1. IG "OFF" and disconnect TPS connector and ECM connector.
    2. Measure resistance between terminals 4 and 7 of TPS harness connector.
    3. Measure resistance between terminals 1 and 7 of TPS harness connector.
    4. Measure resistance between terminals 2 and 7 of TPS harness connector.
    5. Measure resistance between terminals 3 and 7 of TPS harness connector.

      Specification: Infinite

    6. Is the measured resistance within specification?

      YES 

      NO
