5 CHECK GEAR ENGAGEMENT POTENTIOMETER WIRING K92
Remove connector K92. Turn the key to MAR.
Connect a digital multimeter (set to read Volt) as follows:
– black probe to connector K92 pin 1
– red probe on connector K92 pin 3.
~ 5 V voltage should be read.
Go to Step 6 No voltage is read.
The ECU is not powered.
Perform the next check
Turn the key to STOP.
Disconnect connectors K92 and M85.
Connect a digital multimeter (set to read Ohm) between connector K92 pin 1 and connector M85 pin 11.
~ 0 should be read.Ω
Perform the next check If > 10 Ω is read, the connection between ECU and potentiometer internal resistance is uncertain. Restore the connection between connector K92 pin 1 and connector M85 pin 11.
(wiring diagram: E7040 "ELECTRONIC CLUTCH")
Connect a digital multimeter (set to read Ohm) between connector K9 pin 2 and connector M85 and pin 39.
~ 0 should be read.Ω
Perform the next check If > 10 Ω is read, the connection between potentiometer cursor and ECU is uncertain. Restore the connection between connector K92 pin 2 and connector M85 pin 39.
(wiring diagram: E7040 "ELECTRONIC CLUTCH")
Connect a digital multimeter (set to read Ohm) between connector K92 pin 3 and connector M85 pin 12.
~ 0 should be read.Ω
Perform the next check If > 10 Ω is read, the connection between ECU and potentiometer internal resistance is uncertain. Restore the connection between connector K92 pin 3 and connector M85 pin 12. (wiring diagram: E7040 "ELECTRONIC CLUTCH")
Connect a digital multimeter (set to read Ohm) between connector K92 pin 3 and earth.
> 1 kΩ should be read.
If < 1 kΩ is read, there is a short circuit to earth. Restore correct connection
