IGNITION SIGNAL

Description

INFOID:0000000004362371

The ignition signal from the ECM is sent to and amplified by the power transistor. The power transistor turns

ON and OFF the ignition coil primary circuit. This ON/OFF operation induces the proper high voltage in the coil

secondary circuit.

Component Function Check

INFOID:0000000004362372

1.

INSPECTION START

Turn ignition switch OFF, and restart engine.
Does the engine start?

YES-1 >> With CONSULT-III: GO TO 2.

YES-2 >> Without CONSULT-III: GO TO 3.

NO

>> Go to 

EC-1491, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

2.

CHECK IGNITION SIGNAL FUNCTION

With CONSULT-III

1. Perform “POWER BALANCE” in “ACTIVE TEST” mode with CONSULT-III.

2. Check that each circuit produces a momentary engine speed drop.
Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> INSPECTION END

NO

>> Go to 

EC-1491, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

3.

CHECK IGNITION SIGNAL FUNCTION

 Without CONSULT-III

1. Let engine idle.

2. Read the voltage signal between ECM harness connector termi-

nals with an oscilloscope.

NOTE:
The pulse cycle changes depending on rpm at idle.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> INSPECTION END

NO

>> Go to 

EC-1491, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000004362373

1.

CHECK IGNITION COIL POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT-I

1. Turn ignition switch OFF, wait at least 10 seconds and then turn it ON.

2. Check the voltage between ECM harness connector and

ground.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 2.

NO

>> Refer to 

EC-1175, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

2.

CHECK IGNITION COIL POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT-II

1. Turn ignition switch OFF.

2. Disconnect condenser harness connector.

3. Turn ignition switch ON.

4. Check the voltage between condenser harness connector and

ground.

Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 4.

NO

>> GO TO 3.

3.

CHECK IGNITION COIL POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT-III

1. Turn ignition switch OFF.

2. Disconnect IPDM E/R harness connector.

3. Check the continuity between IPDM E/R harness connector and condenser harness connector.

4. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.
Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> Refer to 

EC-1175, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

NO

>> Repair open circuit, short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.

4.

CHECK CONDENSER GROUND CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT

1. Turn ignition switch OFF.

2. Check the continuity between condenser harness connector and ground.

3. Also check harness for short to power.
Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> GO TO 5.

NO

>> Repair open circuit or short to power in harness or connectors.
