IDLE CONTROL SYSTEM
ELECTRICAL LOAD SWITCH
3000GT (DOHC)
1) Turn ignition off. Disconnect PCM connector. See
POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM) LOCATION table under COMPUTERIZED
ENGINE CONTROLS. Go to next step.
2) Turn headlights on. Using DVOM, check voltage between PCM
connector terminal No. 58 and chassis ground. If battery voltage is
present, turn headlights off and go to next step. If battery voltage
is not present, check and repair circuit between headlight relay
connector and PCM connector.
3) Turn defogger switch on. Using DVOM, check voltage between
PCM connector terminal No. 58 and chassis ground. If battery voltage
is present, turn defogger switch off and go to next step. If battery
voltage is not present, check and repair circuit between defogger
relay connector and PCM connector.
4) Turn blower switch on. Using DVOM, check voltage between
PCM connector terminal No. 58 and chassis ground. If battery voltage
is present, turn blower switch off and go to next step. If battery
voltage is not present, check and repair circuit between blower switch
connector and PCM connector.
5) If battery voltage is present and preceding tests do not
show any system or component malfunction and PCM is suspected,
substitute PCM with known-good unit and retest system.

SPEEDOMETER TEST under COMPONENT TESTS. Repair or replace as
necessary.
TACHOMETER NOT WORKING
Tachometer is serviced as an assembly. If wiring harness is
okay, replace tachometer assembly.
WARNING LIGHTS NOT WORKING
Test for defective sending unit, burned-out bulb and broken
printed circuit. Ensure all connections are clean and tight.
COMPONENT TESTS
BOOST PRESSURE GAUGE (TURBO)
Resistance Test (Eclipse & 3000GT)
1) Remove instrument cluster from instrument panel. See
INSTRUMENT CLUSTER under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. On 3000GT, remove air
distribution duct and combination gauges.
2) On all models, check resistance between boost pressure
gauge terminals on back of instrument cluster or combination gauges.
See Fig. 1 or 2. Resistance should be 68.2-83.4 ohms on Eclipse, or 72
ohms on 3000GT. If resistance is not as specified, replace gauge.

Resistance Test (Montero Only)
Using an ohmmeter, check resistance between voltmeter
terminals. See Fig. 30. Resistance should be 380-460 ohms.

Voltage Test (3000GT Only)
Start engine, and let it idle. Connect voltmeter to battery.
Compare voltage reading of test voltmeter to voltage reading of
vehicle voltmeter. Voltage variation should not exceed 0.5 volt (plus
or minus). Replace instrument cluster voltmeter if voltage reading is
not as specified.
FOGLIGHT SWITCH TEST
NOTE: Montero Sport is not equipped with foglights.
Eclipse
Remove foglight switch from instrument panel. Disconnect
switch connector. Using an ohmmeter, check switch continuity. With
switch in OFF position, continuity should exist between terminals No.
1 and 3. With switch in ON position, continuity should exist between
terminals No. 1 and 3, and between terminals No. 4 and 5. See Fig. 31.
If continuity is not as specified, replace switch.
Galant & Mirage
Remove foglight switch from instrument panel. Disconnect
switch connector. Using an ohmmeter, check switch continuity. With
switch in OFF position, continuity should exist between terminals No.
1 and 2. With switch in ON position, continuity should exist between
terminals No. 1 and 2, terminals No. 3 and 4, and terminals No. 5 and
6. See Fig. 31. If continuity is not as specified, replace switch.

allowing metal objects to contact the battery posts and the
vehicle at the same time.
CAUTION: Never disconnect the battery while the engine is running;
doing so could damage the car's electrical components.
REPLACING BLOWN FUSES
Before replacing a blown fuse, remove ignition key, turn off
all lights and accessories to avoid damaging the electrical system. Be
sure to use fuse with the correct indicated amperage rating. The use
of an incorrect amperage rating fuse may result in a dangerous
electrical system overload.
BRAKE PAD WEAR INDICATOR
Indicator will cause a squealing or scraping noise, warning
that brake pads need replacement.
BRAKE FLUID
WARNING: DO NOT use reclaimed fluid or fluid that has been stored
in old or open containers. It is essential that foreign
particles and other liquids are kept out of the brake fluid
reservoir.
CATALYTIC CONVERTER
Continued operation of vehicle with a severe malfunction
could cause converter to overheat, resulting in possible damage to
converter and vehicle.
ENGINE COOLANT SERVICE
WARNING: To avoid the danger of being scalded never change the coolant
when the engine is hot.
WARNING: Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot Serious
burns could be caused by high pressure fluid escaping from
the radiator.
CAUTION: When adding or replacing engine coolant, use a high quality
ethylene glycol antifreeze diluted with 50% distilled water.
When putting the cap on the reserve tank, line up the arrow
on the cap and the arrow on the tank, or coolant can leak out
ENGINE DRIVE BELT SERVICE
WARNING: Be sure the ignition key is OFF. The engine could rotate
unexpectedly.
ENGINE OIL
WARNING: The engine oil may be high enough to burn your fingers
when the drain plug is loosened. Wait until the drain plug
is cool enough to touch with you bare hands.
WARNING: Continuous contact with used engine oil has been found to
cause skin cancer in laboratory animals. Brief contact with
used engine oil may irritate skin. To minimize your exposure
to used oil, wear a long sleeve shirt and moisture-proof
gloves when changing oil. If oil contacts your skin, wash

terminals. See Fig. 1. Select 10-amp scale.
3) Turn off all electrical accessories. Turn off interior
lights, underhood lamp, trunk light, illuminated entry, etc. To avoid
damaging ammeter or obtaining a false meter reading, all accessories
must be off before turning test switch knob to OFF position.
4) Turn test switch knob to OFF position to allow current to
flow through ammeter. If meter reads wrong polarity, turn test switch
to ON position and reverse leads. Turn test switch to OFF position.
Observe current reading. If reading is less than 2 amps, turn test
switch to ON position to keep electrical circuits powered-up.
5) Select low amp scale. Switch lead to the correct meter
position. Turn test switch to OFF position and compare results to
normal current draw. See the GENERAL MOTORS PARASITIC LOAD TABLE . If
current draw is unusually high for the vehicle's overall electrical
system, remove system fuses one at a time until current draw returns
to normal.
6) Turn test switch to ON position each time door is opened
or fuse is removed. Turn switch to OFF position to read current draw
value through meter. When the cause of excessive current drain has
been located and repaired, remove test switch and reconnect negative
battery cable to the negative battery terminal.
