  1. Connect a tachometer to the test tachometer connector.

Idle speed: 770 ± 50 rpm with gear lever in neutral position and electrical systems turned off.

  1. Adjust the idle speed if necessary.

Ignition Control Module (ICM) Input Test

Note:

  • Perform an input test for the ignition control module (ICM) after finishing the fundamental tests for the ignition system and the fuel and emissions system.
  • The tachometer should operate normally.
  1. Remove the distributor cap, the distributor rotor, and the inner cover.

  5. E YEL/GRN wire
  1. Disconnect the BLK/YEL, WHT/BLU, YEL/GRN, and BLU wires from the ignition control module (ICM).
  2. Turn the ignition switch ON. Check for voltage between the BLK/YEL wire and body earth. There should be battery voltage.
    • If there is no battery voltage, check for an open in the BLK/YEL wire between the ignition coil and the ICM.
    • If there is battery voltage, go to step 4.
  3. Check for voltage between the WHT/BLU wire and body earth. There should be battery voltage.
    • If there is no battery voltage, check for:
      • faulty ignition coil.
      • an open in the WHT/BLU wire between the ignition coil and the ICM.
    • If there is battery voltage, go to step 5.
  4. Check the YEL/GRN wire between the engine control module (ECM) and the ICM.
