Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Inspection Procedure
- CHECK ECM (+B, +B1 VOLTAGE)
- Turn the engine switch on (IG).
- Measure the voltage of the ECM connectors.
Standard voltage
TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITIONTester Connection Specified Condition A6-6 (+B) - E7-7 (E1) 9 to 14 V A6-5 (+B1) - E7-7 (E1) 9 to 14 V
OK: PROCEED TO NEXT CIRCUIT INSPECTION SHOWN IN PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
NG: Go to next step
- CHECK WIRE HARNESS (ECM - BODY GROUND)
- Disconnect the E7 ECM connector.
- Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connector.
Standard resistance
TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITIONTester Connection Specified Condition E7-7 (E1) - Body ground Below 1 Ω
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK ECM (IGSW VOLTAGE)
- Turn the engine switch on (IG).
- Measure the voltage of the ECM connectors.
Standard voltage
TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITIONTester Connection Specified Condition A6-17 (IGSW) - E7-7 (E1) 9 to 14 V
OK: Go to step 6
NG: Go to next step
- INSPECT FUSE (IGN)
- Remove the IGN fuse from the body ECU.
- Measure the resistance of the IGN fuse.
Standard resistance:
Below 1 Ω
NG: CHECK FOR SHORT IN ALL HARNESSES AND COMPONENTS CONNECTED TO FUSE, AND REPLACE FUSE
OK: Go to next step
- INSPECT RELAY (Marking IG2)
- Remove the IG2 relay from engine room No. 2 relay block.
- Measure the resistance of the IG2 relay.
Standard resistance
TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITIONTester Connection Specified Condition 3 - 5 10 kΩ or higher 3 - 5 Below 1 Ω (when battery voltage is applied to terminals 1 and 2)
NG: REPLACE RELAY
OK: PUSH BUTTON START SYSTEM
- CHECK ECM (MREL VOLTAGE)
- Turn the engine switch on (IG).
- Measure the voltage of the ECM connectors.
Standard voltage
TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITIONTester Connection Specified Condition A6-13 (MREL) - E7-7 (E1) 9 to 14 V
NG: REPLACE ECM
OK: Go to next step
- INSPECT FUSE (EFI)
- Remove the EFI fuse from the engine room No. 2 relay block.
- Measure the resistance of the EFI fuse.
Standard resistance:
Below 1 Ω
NG: CHECK FOR SHORT IN ALL HARNESS AND COMPONENTS CONNECTED FUSE, AND REPLACE FUSE
OK: Go to next step
- INSPECT INTEGRATION RELAY (Marking EFI MAIN)
- Remove the integration relay from the engine room No. 2 junction block.
- Measure the resistance of the EFI MAIN relay.
Standard resistance
TERMINAL CONNECTIONS SPECIFIED CONDITION CHARTTerminal Connections Specified Condition 2A-8 - 2C-1 10 kΩ or higher 2A-8 - 2C-1 Below 1 Ω (when battery voltage is applied to terminals 2A-6 and 2A-7)
NG: REPLACE INTEGRATION RELAY
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK WIRE HARNESS (INTEGRATION RELAY - ECM, INTEGRATION RELAY - BODY GROUND)
- Check the wire harness between the integration relay and the ECM.
- Remove the integration relay from the engine room No. 2 junction block.
- Disconnect the A6 ECM connector.
- Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.
Standard resistance
TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITIONTester Connection Specified Condition 2A-6 - A6-13 (MREL) Below 1 Ω 2A-6 or A6-13 (MREL) - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher
- Check the wire harness between the integration relay and body ground.

When to See a Mechanic
Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:
- • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
- • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
- • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
- • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
- • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
