DTC Troubleshooting
Step Action Yes No
1
Was “Engine and Emission Control System Check” performed?
Go to Step 2.
2
Boost pressure sensor power supply circuit and ground circuit check
1)When ignition is “OFF”, disconnect connector of boost pressure sensor with IAT sensor-2.
2)Check for proper terminal connection to connector of boost pressure sensor with IAT sensor-2.
3)If connections are OK, set ignition “ON”.
4)Check that voltage between “A1” and “A3” circuits is approx. 5 V.
Is check result OK?
Go to Step 5.
Go to Step 3.
3
Boost pressure sensor ground circuit check
1)Check that voltage between “A1” circuit and ground is approx. 5 V.
Is check result OK?
Repair “A3” circuit.
Go to Step 4.
4
Boost pressure sensor power supply circuit check
1)When ignition is “OFF”, disconnect “D01” connector from ECM.
2)Check for proper terminal connection to “D01” connector.
3)If connections are OK, check the following points.
•Resistance of “A1” circuit: less than 1 Ω
•Resistance between “A1” circuit and ground: infinity
•Resistance between “A1” circuit terminal and other terminal at connector of boost pressure sensor with IAT sensor-2: infinity
•Voltage of “A1” circuit: approx. 0 V (When ignition is “ON”)
Is check result OK?
Go to Step 5.
Repair or replace defective wire harness.
5
Boost pressure sensor signal circuit check
