   	6	56
   Bank 2	1	76
   	2	77
   	5	57
   	6	58

   Continuity should exist. 

5. Check harness continuity between the following terminals and ground. Refer to Wiring Diagram.
   TERMINALS REFERENCE
   
   

   Bank 1		Bank 2
   A/F sensor 1 terminal	ECM terminal	A/F sensor 1 terminal	ECM terminal
   1	16	1	76
   2	75	2	77
   5	35	5	57
   6	56	6	58

   Continuity should not exist. 

6. Also check harness for short to power.

OK or NG 

OK : GO TO 4.

NG : Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.

1. Release fuel pressure to zero. Refer to "FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE ".
2. Install fuel pressure gauge and check fuel pressure. Refer to "FUEL PRESSURE CHECK ".

   At idling: 350 kPa (3.57 kg/cm ²  , 51 psi) 

OK or NG 

OK : GO TO  6.

NG : GO TO 5.

Check the following.

• Fuel pump and circuit (Refer to "FUEL PUMP ".)
• Fuel pressure regulator (Refer to "FUEL PRESSURE CHECK ".)

  : Repair or replace.

With CONSULT-II 

1. Install all removed parts.
2. Check "MASS AIR FLOW" in "DATA MONITOR" mode with CONSULT-II.

   2.0 - 6.0 g.m/sec: at idling 

   7.0 - 20.0 g.m/sec: at 2, 500 RPM 

With GST 

1. Install all removed parts.
2. Check mass air flow sensor signal in "Service $01" with GST.

   2.0 - 6.0 g.m/sec: at idling 

   7.0 - 20.0 g.m/sec: at 2, 500 RPM 

OK or NG 

OK (With CONSULT-II) : GO TO 7.

OK (Without CONSULT-II) : GO TO  8.

NG : Check connectors for rusted terminals or loose connections in the mass air flow sensor circuit or grounds. Refer to "DTC P0102, P0103 MAF SENSOR ".

With CONSULT-II 

1. Start engine.
2. Perform "POWER BALANCE" in "ACTIVE TEST" mode with CONSULT-II.
3. Make sure that each circuit produces a momentary engine speed drop.

OK or NG 

OK : GO TO  10.

NG : Perform trouble diagnosis for "FUEL INJECTOR ".

5. Turn ignition switch OFF.
6. Disconnect ECM harness connector.
7. Check harness continuity between the following terminals.
   TERMINALS REFERENCE
   
   

   Cylinder	Harness connector terminal	ECM terminal
   1	F21 terminal 3	23
   3	F21 terminal 2	22
   5	F21 terminal 1	21
   7	F21 terminal 6	44
   2	F41 terminal 3	42
   4	F41 terminal 2	41
   6	F41 terminal 1	40
   8	F41 terminal 6	63

   Continuity should exist. 

8. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power. 

OK or NG 

OK : GO TO 9.

NG : Perform trouble diagnosis for "FUEL INJECTOR ".

Provide battery voltage between the following terminals, and then interrupt it. Listen to each fuel injector operating sound.

Operating sound should exist.

OK or NG 

OK : GO TO 10.

NG : Perform trouble diagnosis for "FUEL INJECTOR ".

1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Confirm that the engine is cooled down and there are no fire hazards near the vehicle.
3. Remove fuel tube assembly. Refer to "FUEL INJECTOR AND FUEL TUBE ". Keep fuel hose and all fuel injectors connected to fuel tube.
4. Disconnect all fuel injector harness connectors.
5. Disconnect all ignition coil harness connectors.
6. Prepare pans or saucers under each fuel injectors.
7. Crank engine for about 3 seconds.

   Make sure fuel does not drip from fuel injector.

OK or NG 

OK (Does not drip.) : GO TO 11.

NG (Drips.) : Replace the fuel injectors from which fuel is dripping. Always replace O-ring with new one.
