CHECK CHART FOR RESISTANCE AND CONTINUITY
BETWEEN TERMINALS
1. Turn the ignition switch to “LOCK” (OFF) position.
2. Disconnect the engine-ECU connector.
3. Measure the resistance and check for continuity between
the terminals of the engine-ECU harness-side connector
while referring to the check chart.
NOTE
(1) When measuring resistance and checking continuity,
a harness for checking contact pin pressure should
be used instead of inserting a test probe.
(2) Checking need not be carried out in the order given
in the chart.
Caution
If the terminals that should be checked are mistaken,
or if connector terminals are not correctly shorted
to earth, damage may be caused to the vehicle wiring,
sensors, engine-ECU and/or ohmmeter.
Be careful to prevent this!
4. If the ohmmeter shows any deviation from the standard
value, check the corresponding sensor, actuator and
related electrical wiring, and then repair or replace.
5. After repair or replacement, recheck with the ohmmeter
to confirm that the repair or replacement has corrected
the problem.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE USING AN
ANALYZER
AIR FLOW SENSOR
Measurement Method
1. Disconnect the air flow sensor connector, and connect
the special tool (test harness: MB991709) in between.
(All terminals should be connected.)
2. Connect the analyzer special patterns pickup to air flow
sensor connector terminal No. 3.
Alternate Method (Test harness not available)
1. Connect the analyzer special patterns pickup to
engine-ECU terminal No. 65.

Cause of problem
Sensor interface malfunction
Wave pattern characteristics
Rectangular wave pattern is output even when the engine
is not started.
DExample 2
Cause of problem
Damaged rectifier or vortex generation column
Wave pattern characteristics
Unstable wave pattern with non-uniform frequency.
However, when an ignition leak occurs during acceleration,
the wave pattern will be distorted temporarily, even if the air
flow sensor is normal.
CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR AND CRANK ANGLE

Measurement Method
1. Disconnect the camshaft position sensor connector and
connect the special tool (test harness: MB991709) in
between. (All terminals should be connected.)
2. Connect the analyzer special patterns pickup to camshaft
position sensor terminal No. 2.
3. Disconnect the crank angle sensor connector and connect
the special tool (test harness: MD998478) in between.
4. Connect the analyzer special patterns pickup to crank
angle sensor terminal No. 2.
Alternate Method (Test harness not available)
1. Connect the analyzer special patterns pickup to
engine-ECU terminal No. 88. (When checking the
camshaft position sensor signal wave pattern.)
2. Connect the analyzer special patterns pickup to
engine-ECU terminal No. 89. (When checking the crank
