DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE CHART

Step	Check	Yes	No
1 CHECK MAIN RELAY . Turn the ignition switch to OFF. Remove the main relay. Connect the battery to main relay terminals No. 39 and No. 40. Measure the resistance between main relay terminals. Terminals No. 37-No. 38:	Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?	Go to step 2 .	Replace the main relay.
2 CHECK GROUND CIRCUIT FOR ECM . Disconnect the connectors from the ECM. Measure the resistance of harness between ECM and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (B134) No. 5 - Chassis ground: (B137) No. 1 - Chassis ground: (B137) No. 2 - Chassis ground: (B137) No. 3 - Chassis ground: (B137) No. 7 - Chassis ground:	Is the resistance less than 5 Ω?	Go to step 3 .	Repair the harness and connector. NOTE: In this case, repair the following item: Open circuit in harness between ECM connector and engine ground Poor contact of coupling connector
3 CHECK INPUT VOLTAGE OF ECM . Turn the ignition switch to ON. Measure the voltage between ECM connector and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (B135) No. 5 (+) - Chassis ground (-): (B135) No. 19 (+) - Chassis ground (-):	Is the voltage 10 V or more?	Go to step 4 .	Repair the open or ground short circuit of power supply circuit.
4 CHECK INPUT VOLTAGE OF MAIN RELAY . Measure the voltage between main relay connector and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (B220) No. 37 (+) - Chassis ground (-): (B220) No. 39 (+) - Chassis ground (-):	Is the voltage 10 V or more?	Go to step 5 .	Repair the open or ground short circuit of harness of power supply circuit.
5 CHECK INPUT VOLTAGE OF ECM . Turn the ignition switch to OFF. Install the main relay. Turn the ignition switch to ON. Measure the voltage between ECM connector and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (B136) No. 23 (+) - Chassis ground (-):	Is the voltage 10 V or more?	Go to step 6 .	Repair the open circuit of harness between ECM connector and main relay connector.
6 CHECK INPUT VOLTAGE OF ECM . Turn the ignition switch to ON. Measure the voltage between ECM connector and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (B134) No. 7 (+) - Chassis ground (-): (B135) No. 2 (+) - Chassis ground (-):	Is the voltage 10 V or more?	Check ignition control system. Refer to IGNITION CONTROL SYSTEM , Diagnostics for Engine Starting Failure.	Repair the open circuit of harness between ECM connector and main relay connector.
