Abbreviations for Quick Reference of ªDIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CONFIRMATION PROCEDUREº
IGN: ON : Turning the ignition switch ON is required for checking the function of the sensor, switch, solenoid and circuit.
RUNNING : Running engine is required for checking the function of the sensor, switch, solenoid and circuit.
LIFTING : Lifting up the vehicle, running engine and spinning wheels are required.
DRIVING : Driving the vehicle in the specified pattern is required.
Abbreviations for Quick Reference of ªOVERALL FUNCTION CHECKº
IGN: ON : Turning the ignition switch ON is required for the ECM to detect a malfunction (if one exists).
RUNNING : Running engine is required for the ECM to detect a malfunction (if one exists).
LIFTING : Lifting up the vehicle, running engine and spinning wheels are required for the ECM to detect a malfunction (if one
exists).

ECM INSPECTION TABLE
Specification data are reference values and are measured between each terminal and ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/output voltage. Doing so may result in
damage to the ECM's transistor. Use a ground other than ECM terminals, such as the ground.
