TERMINALS OF ECM
1. SFI SYSTEM
Terminals Of ECM:
HINT: The standard normal voltage between each pair of the ECM terminals is shown in the table below. The appropriate conditions for checking each pair of the terminals are also indicated.
The check results should be compared with the standard normal voltage for that pair of terminals, listed in the "STD Voltages" column.
The illustration above can be used as a reference to identify the ECM terminal locations.

Terminals Part 8:
*1: The ECM terminal voltage is constant regardless of the output voltage from the sensor.
Waveform 1:
(a) WAVEFORM 1
(1) Camshaft timing Oil Control Valve (OCV) operation signal
ECM:
HINT: The wavelength becomes shorter as the engine rpm increases.
Waveform 2:
(b) WAVEFORM 2
(1) Heated oxygen sensor signal
ECM:
HINT: In the Data List, item O2S B1S2 shows the ECM input values from the heated oxygen sensor.
Waveform 3:
(c) WAVEFORM 3
(1) Fuel injector operation signal
ECM:
HINT: The wavelength becomes shorter as the engine rpm increases.
Waveform 4:
(d) WAVEFORM 4
(1) Knock sensor signal
ECM:
HINT :
- The wavelength becomes shorter as the engine rpm increases.
- The waveforms and amplitudes displayed differ slightly depending on the vehicle.
Waveform 5:
(e) WAVEFORM 5
(1) Variable Valve Timing (VVT) sensor signal (1)
(2) Crankshaft position sensor signal (2)
ECM:
HINT: The wavelength becomes shorter as the engine rpm increases.
Waveform 6:
(f) WAVEFORM 6
(1) Igniter IGT signal (from ECM to igniter) (1)
(2) Igniter IGF signal (from igniter to ECM) (2)
ECM:
HINT: The wavelength becomes shorter as the engine rpm increases.
Waveform 7:
(g) WAVEFORM 7
(1) Purge VSV for EVAP system operation signal
ECM:
HINT: If the waveform is not similar to that shown in the illustration, check the waveform again after idling for 10 minutes or more.
Waveform 8:
(h) WAVEFORM 8
(1) Vehicle speed signal
ECM:
HINT :
- The wavelength becomes shorter as the vehicle speed increases.
- Depending on the vehicle, the output waveform voltage may rise to 12 V if influenced by optionally installed systems.
Waveform 9:
(i) WAVEFORM 9
(1) Throttle drive motor operation signal (positive terminal)
ECM:
HINT: The duty ratio varies depending on the throttle actuator operation.
Waveform 10:
(j) WAVEFORM 10
(1) Throttle drive motor operation signal (negative terminal)
ECM:
HINT: The duty ratio varies depending on the throttle actuator operation.
Waveform 11:
(k) WAVEFORM 11
(1) Engine speed signal
ECM:
HINT: The wavelength becomes shorter as the engine rpm increases.
Waveform 12:
(l) WAVEFORM 12
(1) CAN communication signal
ECM:
HINT: The waveform varies depending on the CAN communication signal.
Waveform 13:
(m) WAVEFORM 13
(1) CAN communication signal
ECM:
HINT: The waveform varies depending on the CAN communication signal.

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