3-18 FUEL SYSTEM (DFI)
Troubleshooting the DFI System
○
The DFI part connectors [A] have seals [B], including the
ECU.
•
Join the connector and insert the needle adapters (special
tool) [C] inside the seals [ B] from behind the connector
until the adapter reaches the t erminal.
Special Tool - Needle Adapter Set: 57001–1457
CAUTION
Insert the needle adapter straight along the terminal
in the connector to prevent short-circuit between
terminals.
•
Make sure that measuring points are correct in the con-
nector, noting the position of the lock [D] and the lead
color before measurement. Do not reverse connections
of the hand tester or a digital meter.
•
Be careful not to short-circuit the leads of the DFI or elec-
trical system parts by contact between adapters.
•
Turn the ignition SW ON and measure the voltage with
the connector joined.
CAUTION
Incorrect, reverse connection or short circuit by
needle adapters could damage the DFI or electrical
system parts.
○
After measurement, remove the needle adapters and ap-
ply s ilicone sealant to the seals [A] of the connector [B]
for w aterproofing.

•
Always check battery condition before replacing the DFI
parts. A fully charged battery is a must for conducting
accurate tests of t he DFI system.
•
Trouble may involve one or in some cases all items.
Never replace a defective part without determining what
CAUSED the problem. If the problem was caused by
some other item or items, they too must be repaired or
replaced, or the new replacement part will soon fail again.
•
Measure coil winding resistance when the DFI part is cold
(at room temperature)
•
Make sure all connectors in the circuit are clean and tight,
and examine w ires for signs of burning, fraying, short,
etc. Deteriorated wires and bad connections can cause
reappearance of problem s and unstable operation of the
DFI system.
If any wiring is deteriorated, replace the wiring.
