CLEARING DTCS
CAUTION: When battery is disconnected, vehicle computer and memory
systems may lose memory data. Driveability problems may
exist until computer systems have completed a relearn cycle.
To clear DTCs using a scan tool, refer to owners manual
supplied with scan tool. If scan tool is not available, DTCs may also
be cleared by disconnecting negative battery cable or PCM for at least
15 seconds, allowing PCM to clear DTCs. Reconnect negative battery
cable and check for DTCs to confirm repair.

symptoms exist, or intermittent DTCs exist, proceed to H - TESTS W/O
CODES article for diagnosis by symptom (i.e., ROUGH IDLE, NO START,
etc.) or intermittent diagnostic procedures.

L - WIRING DIAGRAMS article.
1) Specific self-diagnostic test is not available from
manufacturer at time of publication. Check ignition coil, power
transistor, spark plugs, fuel injectors, heated oxygen sensor,
crankshaft position sensor, and related connectors and harnesses.
2) Also check compression pressure, timing belt, fuel
pressure, and for intake air leaks. See F - BASIC TESTING article.
DTC P0325: KNOCK SENSOR (KS) NO. 1 CIRCUIT FAILURE
NOTE: This test applies to 3000GT equipped with DOHC engine only.
For terminal identification, see TERMINAL IDENTIFICATION. For
circuit and wire color identification, see
L - WIRING DIAGRAMS article.
1) Component or scan tool testing procedure not available
from manufacturer at time of publication. Turn ignition switch to OFF
position. Disconnect KS connector and PCM connector. Ground PCM
connector terminal No. 91. Go to next step.
2) Using DVOM, check for continuity between chassis ground
and KS connector terminal No. 1. If continuity does not exist, repair
wiring harness as necessary. If continuity exists, go to next step.
3) Remove jumper wire from PCM connector terminal No. 1.
Check for continuity between chassis ground and KS connector terminal
No. 2. If continuity does not exist, repair wiring harness as
necessary. If continuity exists, go to next step.
4) Test is complete. Intermittent problem may exist. Road
test vehicle (if necessary) and attempt to duplicate conditions that
caused original complaint. Recheck for DTCs. If no DTCs are displayed,
go to INTERMITTENT DTCS .
DTC P0335: CRANKSHAFT POSITION (CKP) SENSOR CIRCUIT FAILURE
NOTE: For terminal identification, see TERMINAL IDENTIFICATION. For
circuit and wire color identification, see
L - WIRING DIAGRAMS article.
NOTE: Procedures are provided by manufacturer for component
testing using an engine analyzer with oscilloscope
capability. Refer to manufacturer's operation manual for
instructions in use of oscilloscope.
1) If using scan tool, go to step 3). Disconnect CKP sensor
connector. Install Test Harness (MB991348) between CKP sensor and
connector. Using engine analyzer with oscilloscope capability, connect
special patterns probe to CKP sensor connector terminal No. 2. Go to
next step.
2) Start engine. Compare oscilloscope wave pattern with
known-good wave pattern. See Fig. 38. Verify wavelength (time)
decreases as engine RPM increases. If wave pattern fluctuates to left
or right, check for loose timing belt or an abnormality in sensor
pick-up disc. If a rectangular wave pattern is generated even when
engine is not started, substitute known-good CKP sensor. Repeat test.
If wave pattern is still abnormal, go to step 6).

3) Connect an engine tachometer. Crank engine. Ensure
ignition coil primary current toggles on and off. Using scan tool,
read engine cranking speed (item 22). Compare tachometer and scan tool\
RPM display. Go to next step.
4) If engine fails to start and tachometer reads zero RPM
when engine is cranked, check for broken timing belt or faulty CKP
sensor. If CKP sensor is suspected, substitute known-good CKP sensor.
Repeat test procedure. If engine fails to start, tachometer reads zero
RPM, and ignition coil primary current fails to toggle on and off,
check for faulty ignition coil, ignition circuit or power transistor.
If engine starts and readouts agree, go to next step.
5) Ensure A/C switch is in ON position to activate closed
throttle position switch. Allow engine to idle. Using scan tool, check
engine coolant temperature and read idle speed. See
IDLE RPM SPECIFICATIONS table. If RPM is not to specification, check
for faulty ECT sensor, basic idle speed adjustment, or idle air
control motor. If RPM is within specifications, go to next step.

6) On 3000GT, go to next step. On Montero, disconnect CKP
sensor connector and MFI relay connector. Using DVOM, check for
continuity between CKP sensor connector terminal No. 3 and MFI relay
connector terminal No. 1. If continuity does not exist, repair wiring
harness as necessary. If continuity exists, go to next step.
7) With CKP sensor connector disconnected, check for
continuity between chassis ground and CKP sensor connector terminal
No. 1 on Montero or No. 2 on 3000GT. If continuity does not exist,
repair wiring harness as necessary. If continuity exists on 3000GT, go
to next step. On Montero, go to step 9).
8) Check for voltage between chassis ground and CKP sensor
connector terminal No. 3. If battery voltage does not exist, repair
wiring harness as necessary. If battery voltage exists, go to step
10).
9) Turn ignition switch to OFF position. With CKP sensor
connector disconnected, disconnect PCM connector. Check for continuity

disconnected hose. Connect Pressure Gauge (MB990662) and shutoff valve\
between adapters. Open shutoff valve. Bleed steering hydraulic system.

3) Install a thermometer in fluid reservoir. Start engine and
allow it to idle. Turn steering wheel several times until fluid
temperature reaches 122-140
F (50-60C). Disconnect PSP switch
connector. Install a DVOM between ground and PSP switch terminal. See
Fig. 45 . Note continuity reading on DVOM. Go to next step.
4) With engine idling, gradually close shutoff valve to
increase power steering system pressure. Check pressure when PSP
switch is actuated by watching for a change in continuity. PSP switch

See Fig. 1 . Connect negative voltmeter lead to ground.
2) Disconnect generator output wire from terminal "B".
Install a 100-amp ammeter in series with terminal "B" and disconnected
output lead. Connect positive lead of ammeter to terminal "B" and
negative lead to disconnected output wire. Install a tachometer, and
reconnect negative battery cable.
3) Turn ignition switch on and ensure voltmeter indicates
battery voltage. If voltage is not present, check for open in wire
between generator terminal "S" and positive battery terminal. Check
for blown fusible link.
4) Start engine. Ensure all lights and accessories are off.
Operate engine at 2500 RPM and read voltmeter when generator output
current drops to 10 amps or less. Voltage regulator is okay if voltage
output is within specification. See REGULATOR VOLTAGE SPECIFICATIONS
table.

GENERATOR RELAY TEST
NOTE: Information for all other models is not available from
manufacturer at time of publication.
Diamante & Mirage
Remove generator relay. On Diamante, relay is located in
relay box in engine compartment near battery. On Mirage, relay is
located in relay box in engine compartment between battery and strut
tower. On both models, connect positive lead of ohmmeter to relay
terminal No. 4. See WIRING DIAGRAMS. Connect negative lead of ohmmeter
to relay terminal No. 2. Continuity should be present. Switch ohmmeter
lead locations. Continuity should not be present. Replace generator
relay if continuity is not as specified.
BENCH TESTING
RECTIFIER ASSEMBLY
1) Using ohmmeter, check for continuity between diodes and
stator coil lead connection. See Fig. 2. Reverse leads. If continuity
is present in both directions, diode is shorted. Replace rectifier
assembly.
2) To check entire diode assembly, use an ohmmeter to check
for continuity between both ends of each diode. See Fig. 2. Switch
ohmmeter leads. Continuity should be present in one direction only. If
continuity is not as specified, diode is defective. Replace rectifier
assembly.

1) Check continuity across rotor slip rings. Resistance
should be 3-5 ohms. Replace rotor if continuity is not present or
resistance is not within specification.
2) Check continuity between individual slip rings and rotor
shaft. If continuity is present, rotor coil or slip ring is grounded.
Replace rotor.
STATOR
Ensure continuity is not present between stator coil leads
and stator core. Check continuity between leads of stator coil. If
continuity is not present between coil leads, replace stator.
OVERHAUL
Replace brushes if worn to limit line. Limit line is line
closest to rotor contact end of brush. Brushes can be retained in
brush holder while installing rotor by inserting wire into back of
rear housing. See Fig. 3.
