Inspection Procedure 19: Engine-ECU Power Supply, Engine Control Relay, Ignition Switch-IG1 System














OPERATION



  • Battery voltage is applied to the engine control relay (terminal No. 3 and No. 4).
  • Engine-ECU (terminal No. 73) applies current to the engine control relay coil by turning ON the power transistor in the unit in order to turn the relay ON.
  • When the engine control relay is turned ON, the battery power will be supplied from the engine control relay (terminal No. 2) to the engine-ECU, sensor and actuator.

FUNCTION



  • When the ignition switch ON signal is input into the engine-ECU via ETACS-ECU, the engine-ECU turns ON the engine control relay.This causes battery voltage to be supplied to the engine-ECU, sensor and actuator.

PROBABLE CAUSES



  • Failed battery
  • Failed engine control relay
  • Failed ignition switch
  • Open/short circuit or harness damage in the engine control relay circuit or loose connector contact.
  • Open/short circuit or harness damage in the ignition switch (IG) circuit or loose connector contact.
  • Open circuit or harness damage in the engine-ECU earth circuit or loose connector contact.
  • Failed ETACS-ECU
  • Failed engine-ECU
