SFI System (3MZ-FE): Inspection
- INSPECT MASS AIR FLOW METER
- Check the output voltage.
- Apply battery voltage across terminals 1 (+B) and 2 (E2G).
- Connect the positive (+) tester probe to terminal VG, and negative (-) tester probe to terminal E2G.
- Blow air into the Mass Air Flow (MAF) meter, and check that the voltage fluctuates.
- Measure the resistance between terminals 4 (THA) and 5 (E2).
Standard:
MASS AIR FLOW METER TERMINALS RESISTANCECondition Specified Condition -20°C (-4°F) 13.6 to 18.4 kΩ 20°C (68°F) 2.21 to 2.69 kΩ 60°C (140°F) 0.493 to 0.667 kΩ If the result is not as specified, replace the MAF meter.
- Check the output voltage.
- INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSY
- Measure the resistance between the terminals.
- Standard: 6.9 to 7.9 a at 20°C (68°F)
If the result is not as specified, replace the OCV assy.
- Connect the battery's positive (+) lead to terminal 1 and negative (-) lead to terminal 2, and check the movement of the valve.
NOTE: Confirm that the valve moves freely and does not become stuck in any position.If necessary, replace the OCV assy.
HINT:
If the valve cannot return properly because of foreign matter, a small pressure leak in the advanced direction may occur and a DTC will be output.
- Measure the resistance between the terminals.
- INSPECT ACCELERATOR PEDAL ROD ASSY
- INSPECT THROTTLE BODY ASSY
- Check the throttle position sensor (See DTC P0120 THROTTLE/PEDAL POSITION SENSOR/SWITCH "A" CIRCUIT, DTC P0122 THROTTLE/PEDAL POSITION SENSOR/SWITCH "A" CIRCUIT LOW INPUT, DTC P0123 THROTTLE/PEDAL POSITION SENSOR/SWITCH "A" CIRCUIT HIGH INPUT, DTC P0220 THROTTLE/PEDAL POSITION SENSOR/SWITCH "B" CIRCUIT, DTC P0222 THROTTLE/PEDAL POSITION SENSOR/SWITCH "B" CIRCUIT LOW INPUT, DTC P0223 THROTTLE/PEDAL POSITION SENSOR/SWITCH "B" CIRCUIT HIGH INPUT, DTC P2135 THROTTLE/PEDAL POSITION SENSOR/SWITCH "A'V'B" VOLTAGE CORRELATION ).
- Check the throttle control motor.
- Measure the resistance between terminals 2 (M+) and 1 (M-).
- Resistance: 0.3 to 100 Ω at 20°C (68°F).
- Measure the resistance between terminals 2 (M+) and 1 (M-).
If the result is not as specified, replace the throttle body assy.
- INSPECT ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR
- Measure the resistance between each terminal.
Standard:
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR TERMINALS RESISTANCECondition Specified Condition 20°C (68°F) 2.32 to 2.59 kΩ 80°C (176°F) 0.310 to 0.326 kΩ If the result is not as specified, replace the sensor.
NOTE: If checking the ECT sensor in the water, keep the terminals dry. After the check, wipe the sensor dry. - INSPECT KNOCK SENSOR
- Measure the resistance between the terminals.
- Resistance: 120 to 280 kΩ at 20°C (68°F)
If the result is not as specified, replace the sensor.
- Measure the resistance between the terminals.
- INSPECT RELAY (Marking: EFI, A/F)
- Remove the EFI relay from the engine room J/B.
- Remove the A/F relay from the engine room R/B No. 2.
- Measure the resistance of the relay.
Standard:
EFI AND A/F RELAY TERMINALS RESISTANCETester Connection Specified Condition 3 - 5 10 kΩ or higher 3 - 5 Below 1Ω (when battery voltage is applied to terminals 1 and 2) If the result is not as specified, replace the relay.
- INSPECT CIRCUIT OPENING RELAY
- Remove the circuit opening relay from the R/B sub-assy.
- Measure the resistance of the relay.
Standard:
CIRCUIT OPENING RELAY TERMINALS RESISTANCETester Connection Specified Condition 3 - 5 10 kΩ or higher 3 - 5 Below 1 Ω (when battery voltage is applied to terminals 1 and 2) If the result is not as specified, replace the relay.
