MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

13A-667

.

CIRCUIT OPERATION

• A battery positive voltage is applied to the power 

steering pressure switch output terminal (terminal 
No. 1) from the PCM (terminal No. 47) via the 
resistor in the PCM.

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• The power steering pressure switch converts the 

existence of a power steering load into a high/low 
voltage, and inputs it into the PCM.

• When the steering wheel is turned, hydraulic 

pressure rises. The power steering pressure 
switch closes, and the applied battery positive 
voltage will be grounded. With this, the power 
steering pressure switch output voltage will fluc-
tuate between 12 volts and 0 volt.

• While driving with the steering wheel held 

straight, the power steering pressure switch turns 
"OFF".

• The PCM checks whether the power steering 

pressure switch turns "OFF" or "ON" during driv-
ing.

.

DESCRIPTIONS OF MONITOR METHODS
Power steering pressure switch changes from off to 

on more than 10 times for 1 second.

Logic Flow Chart

.

Check Conditions

• Engine coolant temperature is higher than 30°C 

(86

°F).

• Vehicle speed is higher than 50 km/h (31 mph).

Judgment Criteria

• The ON/OFF frequency of a power steering pres-

sure switch is 10 Hz or more for 20 seconds.

.

OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE PATTERN
None.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most likely 
causes for this code to be set are: )

• Power steering pressure switch failed.

• Incorrect power steering fluid level.

• Incorrect oil pump pressure.

• Harness damage in power steering pressure 

switch circuit, or connector damage.

• PCM failed.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (MUT-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991911: Main Harness B

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

13A-669

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item 27: 
Power Steering Pressure Switch.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Start the engine and run at idle.
(3) Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode for item 

27, Power Steering Pressure Switch.

• If the steering wheel is not turned while idling, "OFF" will 

be displayed.

• If the steering wheel is turned while idling, "ON" will be 

displayed.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the sensor operating properly?

YES : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. 

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use 
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points 

P.00-6

.

NO :  Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Check the power steering fluid level.
Refer to GROUP 37A, On-Vehicle Service 

− Fluid Level Check 

P.37A-17

.

Q: Are there any abnormalities?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO :  Repair it. Then go to Step 7.

STEP 3. Check the power steering pressure switch.
Refer to GROUP 37A, On-Vehicle Service 

− Power Steering 

Pressure Switch Check

P.37A-20

.

Q: Are there any abnormalities?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO :  Replace the power steering pressure switch. Then go 

to Step 7.

STEP 4. Check the oil pump pressure .
Refer to GROUP 37A, On-Vehicle Service 

− Oil Pump Pressure 

Test 

P.37A-19

.

Q: Are there any abnormalities?

YES : Go to Step 5.
NO :  Repair it. Then go to Step 7.

STEP 5. Check connector B-29 at the power steering 
pressure switch and connector D-133 at PCM for damage.
Q: Is the connector in good condition?

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

Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. Then go to Step 7.
