Terminal Voltage (MT) — ECU Connector

Z-34spec tableUnverified

MT (manual transmission) terminal-voltage table; A/T values referenced for terminals 1V, 1W (inhibitor switch). Canadian/US distinctions not called out here.

MT

Terminal voltage table for the engine control unit (ECU) connector pins on manual-transmission (MT) vehicles. Each row gives a terminal number, the component it connects to, the abnormal voltage observed, and the possible cause(s) when that abnormal voltage is present. Reference notes point to wiring-diagram pages (e.g. F-41, F-43, F-49) for follow-up tests.
