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
Hand held tester:
- PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING HAND HELD TESTER (OPERATION OF CIRCUIT OPENING RELAY)
- Connect a hand-held tester to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the tester ON.
- Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS/ENHANCED OBD II/ACTIVE TEST/FUEL PUMP/ SPD.
- Check whether operating sounds can be heard while operating the relay using the tester.
OK: Operating sounds can be heard from relay.
OK: Go to step 1
- INSPECT
ECM POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT )
NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT
OK: Go to next step.
- INSPECT CIRCUIT OPENING RELAY
- Remove the circuit opening relay from the instrument panel J/B.
- Check the circuit opening relay resistance.
Standard:
TESTER CONNECTIONS SPECIFIED CONDITION (1 OF 2)Tester Connections Specified Conditions 3-5 10 kΩ or higher 3-5 Below 1Ω (when battery voltage applied to terminals 1 and 2) - Reinstall the circuit opening relay.
NG: REPLACE CIRCUIT OPENING RELAY
OK: Go to next step.
- INSPECT ECM (FC VOLTAGE)
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Measure the voltage between the terminals of the E4 and E6 ECM connectors.
Standard:

OK: REPLACE ECM (See REPLACEMENT )
NG: Go to next step.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (IGNITION SWITCH - CIRCUIT OPENING RELAY)
- Disconnect the I11 ignition switch connector.
- Remove the circuit opening relay from the instrument panel J/B.
- Check the resistance.
Standard (Check for open):
TESTER CONNECTIONS SPECIFIED CONDITION (FOR OPEN)Tester Connections Specified Conditions IG2 (I11-6) - Instrument panel J/B (Circuit opening relay terminal 1) Below 1Ω Standard (Check for short):
TESTER CONNECTIONS SPECIFIED CONDITION (FOR SHORT)Tester Connections Specified Conditions IG2 (I11-6) or Instrument panel J/B (Circuit opening relay terminal 1) - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher - Reinstall the circuit opening relay.
- Reconnect the ignition switch connector.

NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: Go to next step.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ECM - CIRCUIT OPENING RELAY)
- Disconnect the E6 ECM connector.
- Remove the circuit opening relay from the instrument panel J/B.
- Check the resistance.
Standard (Check for open):
TESTER CONNECTIONS SPECIFIED CONDITION (FOR OPEN)Tester Connections Specified Conditions FC (E6-10) - Instrument panel J/B (Circuit opening relay terminal 2) Below 1Ω Standard (Check for short):
TESTER CONNECTIONS SPECIFIED CONDITION (FOR SHORT)Tester Connections Specified Conditions FC (E6-10) or Instrument panel J/B (Circuit opening relay terminal 2) - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher - Reinstall the circuit opening relay.
- Reconnect the ECM connector.

NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK: REPLACE ECM (See REPLACEMENT )
- INSPECT FUEL PUMP (See
INSPECTION
)
NG: REPLACE FUEL PUMP (See REMOVAL & INSTALLATION AND DISASSEMBLY & REASSEMBLY )
OK: Go to next step.
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CIRCUIT OPENING RELAY - FUEL PUMP, FUEL PUMP - BODY GROUND)
- Remove the circuit opening relay from the instrument panel J/B.
- Disconnect the F10 fuel pump connector.
- Check the resistance.

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.
