5.

Parts internal circuit check:

Parts internal circuit check

?1.	Jump the SCS line with the HDS, and wait more than 1 minute.

?2.

Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2 while disconnecting these parts, one at a time:

Test point 1	Relay circuit board connector C (18P) (female terminals) No. 17:
Test point 2	Body ground

Does continuity go away with the part(s) removed?


	YES

Replace the part that continuity goes away when it was disconnected. If the part is PCM, Check for any authorized service information related to the DTCs or symptoms you are troubleshooting, or substitute a known-good PCM. Also replace the No. A7 (15 A) fuse.?


	NO

Go to step 6.

6.

Shorted wire check (FI MAIN RLY OUT line):

Shorted wire check (FI MAIN RLY OUT line)

?1.

Disconnect the following connectors.

	PCM connector A (50P): disconnected
Test point 1	PCM connector A (50P) No. 8
Test point 2	Body ground

Is there continuity?


	YES

Repair a short in the FI MAIN RLY OUT line between the relay circuit board, PGM-FI main relay 2, and the PCM (A8). Also replace the No. A7 (15 A) fuse.?


	NO

Replace the relay circuit board. Also replace the No. A7 (15 A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box.?

7.

Determine possible failure area (PGM-FI main relay 1 control circuit, others):

Determine possible failure area (PGM-FI main relay 1 control circuit, others)

?1.	Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

?2.	Install the relay circuit board.

?3.	Jump the SCS line with the HDS, and wait more than 1 minute.

?4.

Disconnect the following connector.

PCM connector A (50P)

?5.

Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

Test point 1	PCM connector A (50P) No. 5
Test point 2	Body ground

Is there battery voltage?


	YES

Go to step 10.


	NO

Go to step 8.

8.

Determine possible failure area (+B IGP line, others):

Determine possible failure area (+B IGP line, others)

?1.

Disconnect the following connector.

Relay circuit board connector C (18P)

?2.

Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
	PCM connector A (50P): disconnected
	Relay circuit board connector C (18P): disconnected
Test point 1	Relay circuit board connector C (18P) (female terminals) No. 18:
