DESCRIPTION
The MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) is used to indicate vehicle malfunctions detected by the ECM.
When the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, power is supplied to the MIL circuit, and the ECM provides the circuit ground which illuminates the MIL.
The MIL operation can be checked visually. When the ignition switch is first turned to the ON position, the MIL should be illuminated and should then turn off. If the MIL remains illuminated or is not illuminated, conduct the following troubleshooting procedure using the intelligent tester.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 CHECK THAT MIL IS ILLUMINATED
Result

2 CHECK WHETHER MIL TURNS OFF
Standard: MIL goes off.
3 CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CHECK FOR SHORT IN WIRE HARNESS)

OK: MIL is not illuminated.
4 CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - ECM)

Standard resistance (Check for Open)

Standard resistance (Check for Short)

REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - ECM)
5 CHECK THAT ENGINE STARTS
Result

HINT: *: The intelligent tester cannot communicate with the ECM.
6 CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - BODY GROUND)

Standard voltage

7 CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - ECM)

Standard resistance (Check for short)

Standard resistance (Check for Short)

1. READ DATA LIST
HINT:
Using the intelligent tester's DATA LIST allows switch,
actuator and other item values to be read without
removing any parts. Reading the DATA LIST early in
troubleshooting is one way to save time.
Connect the intelligent tester with CAN VIM to the
DLC3.

1. INSPECT A/C ROOM TEMPERATURE SENSOR
(a) Remove the A/C room temperature sensor.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in
the table below.
Standard resistance
NOTICE:
Even slightly touching the sensor may
change the resistance value. Be sure ...
On-vehicle inspection
1. CHECK VVT SENSOR OUTPUT VOLTAGE
Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
Check the voltage between the specified terminal
and body ground.
Standard voltage
While turning the crankshaft pulley by hand,
measure the voltage between each terminal. Check
that the voltage ...
