CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION:
On MEFI 3 product, the coil driver circuitry is integrated into the ECM. When the engine is
running, a diagnostic check of the coil drive circuitry is constantly taking place. If the diag-
nostic system detects excessive current to the coil through CKT 121, a fault code will set
although the engine should continue to operate.
DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
Check for the following conditions:
•
Poor connection at ECM. Inspect harness connectors for backed out terminals,
improper mating, broken locks, improperly formed or damaged terminals, and poor
terminal to wire connection.
•
•
•
Damaged harness. Inspect the wiring harness for damage.
Shorted CKT 121 or tach lead in harness.
Damaged ignition coil or improper coil. The ignition system is calibrated for Mercury
approved coils only.
