Preliminary Checks

  1. Warm engine to normal operating temperature. Turn off engine. If turbine shaft does not stop rotating shortly after engine stops, remove intake hose from compressor housing.
  2. Verify compressor wheel rotates freely. Ensure compressor wheel does not scrape against compressor housing when wheel is pushed radially or axially.

Checking & Adjusting Turbocharger Pressure Regulator

For procedure on checking & adjusting turbocharger pressure regulator, see ON-VEHICLE ADJUSTMENTS - EXCEPT S40 & V40 article.

COMPUTERIZED ENGINE CONTROLS

CAUTIONTo prevent damage to ECM, ensure ignition is off before disconnecting or connecting ECM.

ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE (ECM)

Note. When measuring resistance and voltage at ECM, use Breakout Box (981-3190) and Adapter (951-1504). DO NOT measure resistance and voltage at ECM connector.

Connecting Breakout Box & Preliminary Check

  1. Turn ignition off. Wait 2 minutes. No voltage should be present at main relay before removing ECM. If cooling fan runs on after ignition is turned off, wait until 2 minutes after fan stops. Remove ECM box cover and lay aside. NOTE: DO NOT touch ECM pins. Static electricity can damage ECM components.
  2. Put ECM Removal Tool (999 5722) around ECM. Move upper section of tool backwards to stop and pull up on tool. Carefully pull up ECM. Ensure no pins or sockets are damaged. Press adapter down carefully into grooves inside ECM box. Press removal tool around adapter. Move upper section of tool forward to stop and pull up tool.
  3. Ensure terminals in ECM and ECM connector are secure and wiring to female terminals is secured to pins. Connect adapter to ECM connector (wiring side) and connect breakout box. To check power and ground circuits, see «POWER CIRCUITS»(ref-91294-S16022022662003101600000) and «GROUND CIRCUITS»(ref-91294-S36107208092003101600000) .

Power Circuits (C70, S70 & V70)

Check fuse 11 B/3 in main fuse box. (Схема №11) If the fuse is blown, check the circuit after the fuse for a short-circuit to ground. Repair as necessary. Check fuse 11B/1 in main fuse box. If the fuse is blown check the circuit after the fuse for a short-circuit to ground. Repair as necessary. Check power supply to ECM terminals A70 and B11. See PIN VOLTAGE CHARTS article. Voltage should be approximately battery voltage.

Power Circuits (S80)

Check fuse 11 B/18 in main fuse box. (Схема №13) If the fuse is blown check the circuit after the fuse for a short-circuit to ground. Check fuse 11/B14 in main fuse box. If the fuse is blown check the circuit after the fuse for a short-circuit. Check power supply to ECM terminals A70 and B11. Voltage should be approximately battery voltage.

Ground Circuits (C70, S70 & V70)

Check ground lead between ECM terminals A53, A54, A63 (turbo models) and right side member ground terminal G107 (31/71) for an open-circuit. Check ECM ground terminal for contact resistance and oxidation. Repair as necessary.

Ground Circuits (S80)

Check ground lead between ECM terminals A53, A54, A63 and right side member ground terminal G103 (31/96) for an open-circuit. Check ECM ground terminal for contact resistance and oxidation. Repair as necessary.
