MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

13A-809

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• The battery positive voltage is applied from the 

MFI relay (terminal No. 2) to the ignition coil (ter-
minal No. 4) and is grounded to the vehicle body 
via the ignition coil (terminal No. 5).

• A power voltage of 5 V is applied to the ignition 

coil (terminal No. 2) from the ECM (terminal No. 
4, No. 5, No. 20 and No. 21).

.

COMMENT

• When the ECM turn the power transistor in the 

unit to OFF, the battery positive voltage is applied 
to the power transistor in the ignition coil, result-
ing that the power transistor is ON. And, when 
the ECM turns the power transistor in the unit to 
ON, the power transistor in the ignition coil will be 
turned OFF.

• When the power transistor in the ignition coil is 

turned to ON with any signal from the ECM, the 
primary voltage will be applied through the igni-
tion coil.When the power transistor in the ignition 
coil is turned OFF, the primary current is blocked 
and high voltage is generated in the secondary 
coil.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most 
likely causes for this case:)

• Malfunction of the ignition coil.
• Open or shorted ignition circuit, harness damage, 

or connector damage.

• Malfunction of the ECM.

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. Check the ignition coil.
Refer to GROUP 16, Ignition System − On-vehicle Service − 

Ignition Coil Check 

P.16-37

.

Q: Are there any abnormalities?

YES : Replace the ignition coil. Then confirm that the 

malfunction symptom is eliminated.

NO :  Go to Step 2.

B-06 at ignition coil for damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then confirm that the 

malfunction symptom is eliminated.

STEP 3. Measure the power supply voltage at ignition coil 
connectors B-02, B-03, B-04 and B-06.
(1) Disconnect the connector B-02, B-03, B-04 and B-06 and 

measure at the harness side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 4 and ground.

• Voltage should be battery positive voltage.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is battery positive voltage (approximately 12 volts) 

present?
YES : 
Go to Step 4.
NO :  Check harness connector A-39 at intermediate 

connector for damage, and repair or replace as 
required. Refer to, GROUP 00E, Harness Connector 
Inspection 

P.00E-2

. If intermediate connector is in 

good condition, repair harness wire between MFI 
relay connector A-34X (terminal No. 2) and ignition 
coil connectors B-02, B-03, B-04 and B-06 (terminal 
No. 4) because of open circuit or short circuit to 
ground. Then confirm that the malfunction symptom is 
eliminated.

STEP 4. Check the circuit at ignition coil harness side 
connector B-02, B-03, B-04 and B-06.
(1) Disconnect the connectors B-02, B-03, B-04 and B-06 and 

measure at the harness side.

(2) Engine: 3,000 r/min
(3) Measure the voltage between terminal No. 2 and ground.

• Voltage should be 0.3 and 3.0 volts.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the measured voltage between 0.3 and 3.0 volts?

YES : Go to Step 7.
NO :  Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Check harness connector B-09 at ECM for 
damage.
Q: Is the harness connector in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  Repair or replace it. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness 

Connector Inspection
