  4. Is the measured voltage within specifications?

    YES 

    • Substitute with a known-good HECU and check for proper operation. If problem is corrected, replace HECU and then go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.

    NO 

    • Check for open or short in pressure sensor harness between terminal "1" of the pressure sensor A, B harness connector and terminal "20,23" of the HECU harness connector. Repair as necessary and then go to "VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR " procedure.
    • Go to "COMPONENT INSPECTION " procedure.
