Check for any of the following conditions:

  • The resistance of the circuit opening relay, the resistance across terminals No. 2 and 3 is 85-95 ohms at 68°F (20°C). The resistance across terminals No. 1 and 4 is infinite.
  • The circuit opening relays electrical contacts may be pitted or sticking. Replace the relay if tapping gently on the relay or wiggling the relay causes a change in the relays operation.
  • The performance of the circuit opening relay may be affected by temperature. Check the relay after sitting outside overnight and after running the engine 30 minutes.
An intermittent malfunction may be caused by a fault in the fuel pump electrical circuit. See INTERMITTENTS in TROUBLE SHOOTING - NO CODES - 1.8L VIBE article. See Figure .
