DESCRIPTION
The ECM constantly generates 5 V power source voltage from the battery voltages supplied to the +B, +B2 (BATT) terminal to operate the microprocessor. The ECM also provides this power to the sensors through the VC output circuit.
When the VC circuit has a short circuit, the microprocessor in the ECM and sensors that are supplied power through the VC circuit are deactivated because power is not supplied from the VC circuit. When the system is in this condition, it will not start.
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.
PROCEDURE
CHECK CONNECTION BETWEEN GTS AND ECM
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the GTS on.
