Basic Knowledge of Tools Required
Lack of basic knowledge of this powertrain when
performing diagnostic procedures could result in an
incorrect diagnosis or damage to powertrain
components. Do not attempt to diagnose a powertrain
problem without this basic knowledge.
A basic understanding of hand tools is necessary to
effectively use this section of the Service Manual.
Serial Data Communications
Class II Serial Data Communications
This vehicle utilizes the “Class II" communication
system. Each bit of information can have one of two
lengths: long or short. This allows vehicle wiring to be
reduced by transmitting and receiving multiple signals
over a single wire. The messages carried on Class II
data streams are also prioritized. If two messages
attempt to establish communications on the data line at
the same time, only the message with higher priority will
continue. The device with the lower priority message
must wait. The most significant result of this regulation
is that it provides Tech 2 manufacturers with the
capability to access data from any make or model
vehicle that is sold.
The data displayed on the other Tech 2 will appear the
same, with some exceptions. Some scan tools will only
be able to display certain vehicle parameters as values
that are a coded representation of the true or actual
value. For more information on this system of coding,
refer to Decimal/Binary/Hexadecimal Conversions.On
this vehicle the Tech 2 displays the actual values fo
r
vehicle parameters. It will not be necessary to perform
any conversions from coded values to actual values.
On-Board Diagnostic (OBD)
On-Board Diagnostic Tests
A diagnostic test is a series of steps, the result of which
is a pass or fail reported to the diagnostic executive.
When a diagnostic test reports a pass result, the
diagnostic executive records the following data:

The diagnostic test has been completed since the
last ignition cycle.

The diagnostic test has passed during the curren
t
ignition cycle.

The fault identified by the diagnostic test is no
t
currently active.
When a diagnostic test reports a fail result, the
diagnostic executive records the following data:

The diagnostic test has been completed since the
last ignition cycle.

The fault identified by the diagnostic test is currently
active.

The fault has been active during this ignition cycle.

The operating conditions at the time of the failure.
Remember, a fuel trim DTC may be triggered by a list o
f
vehicle faults. Make use of all information available
(other DTCs stored, rich or lean condition, etc.) when
diagnosing a fuel trim fault.
Comprehensive Component Monitor
Diagnostic Operation
Input Components:
Input components are monitored for circuit continuity
and out-of-range values. This includes rationality
checking. Rationality checking refers to indicating a
fault when the signal from a sensor does not seem
reasonable, i.e.throttle position sensor that indicates
high throttle position at low engine loads. Inpu
t
components may include, but are not limited to the
following sensors:

Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS)

Inlet Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor

Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor

Throttle Position Sensor (TPS)

Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor

Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor

Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor
In addition to the circuit continuity and rationality check
the ECT sensor is monitored for its ability to achieve a
steady state temperature to enable closed loop fuel
control.
Output Components:
Output components are diagnosed for proper response
to control module commands. Components where
functional monitoring is not feasible will be monitored fo
r
circuit continuity and out-of-range values if applicable.
Output components to be monitored include, but are no
t
limited to, the following circuit:

Idle Air Control (IAC) Valve

Control module controlled EVAP Canister Purge
Valve

Electronic Transmission controls

A/C relays

VSS output

MIL control
Refer to ECM and Sensors in General Descriptions.

6E-72 3.5L ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS
Passive and Active Diagnostic Tests
A passive test is a diagnostic test which simply monitors
a vehicle system or component. Conversely, an active
test, actually takes some sort of action when performing
diagnostic functions, often in response to a failed
passive test.
Intrusive Diagnostic Tests
This is any on-board test run by the Diagnostic
Management System which may have an effect on
vehicle performance or emission levels.
Warm-Up Cycle
A warm-up cycle means that engine at temperature
must reach a minimum of 70

C (160
F) andrise at
least 22

C (40
F) over the course of a trip.
The Diagnostic Executive
The Diagnostic Executive is a unique segment of
software which is designed to coordinate and prioritize
the diagnostic procedures as well as define the protocol
for recording and displaying their results. The main
responsibilities of the Diagnostic Executive are listed as
follows:

Commanding the MIL (“Check Engine" lamp) on and
off

DTC logging and clearing

Freeze Frame data for the first emission related DTC
recorded

Current status information on each diagnostic
The Diagnostic Executive records DTCs and turns on
the MIL when emission-related faults occur. It can also
turn off the MIL if the conditions cease which caused
the DTC to set.
Diagnostic Information
The diagnostic charts and functional checks are
designed to locate a faulty circuit or component through
a process of logical decisions. The charts are prepared
with the requirement that the vehicle functioned
correctly at the time of assembly and that there are no
t
multiple faults present.
There is a continuous self-diagnosis on certain control
functions. This diagnostic capability is complemented
by the diagnostic procedures contained in this manual.
The language of communicating the source of the
malfunction is a system of diagnostic trouble codes.
When a malfunction is detected by the control module,
a diagnostic trouble code is set and the MIL (“Check
Engine" lamp) is illuminated.

Check Engine Lamp (MIL)
The Check Engine Lamp (MIL) looks the same as the
MIL you are already familiar with (“Check Engine"
lamp).
Basically, the MIL is turned on when the ECM detects a
DTC that will impact the vehicle emissions.
The MIL is under the control of the Diagnostic
Executive. The MIL will be turned on if an
emissions-related diagnostic test indicates a
malfunction has occurred. It will stay on until the
system or component passes the same test, for three
consecutive trips, with no emissionsrelated faults.
Extinguishing the MIL
When the MIL is on, the Diagnostic Executive will turn
off the MIL after three consecutive trips that a “tes
t
passed" has been reported for the diagnostic test tha
t
originally caused the MIL to illuminate.
Although the MIL has been turned off, the DTC will
remain in the ECM memory (both Freeze Frame and
Failure Records) until forty(40) warm-up cycles after no
faults have been completed.
If the MIL was set by either a fuel trim or misfire-related
DTC, additional requirements must be met. In addition
to the requirements stated in the previous paragraph,
these requirements are as follows:

The diagnostic tests that are passed must occur with
375 RPM of the RPM data stored at the time the las
t
test failed.

Plus or minus ten (10) percent of the engine load tha
t
was stored at the time the last failed.

Similar engine temperature conditions (warmed up o
r
warming up ) as those stored at the time the last tes
t
failed.
Meeting these requirements ensures that the fault which
turned on the MIL has been corrected.
The MIL (“Check Engine" lamp) is on the instrumen
t
panel and has the following functions:

It informs the driver that a fault that affects vehicle
emission levels has occurred and that the vehicle
should be taken for service as soon as possible.


As a bulb and system check, the MIL will come “ON"
with the key “ON" and the engine not running. When
the engine is started, the MIL will turn “OFF."

When the MIL remains “ON" while the engine is
running, or when a malfunction is suspected due to a
driveability or emissions problem, a Powertrain
On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check must be
performed. The procedures for these checks are
given in On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System Check.
These checks will expose faults which may not be
detected if other diagnostics are performed first.

3.5L ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS 6E-73
Intermittent Check Engine Lamp
In the case of an “intermittent" fault, the MIL (“Check
Engine" lamp) may illuminate and then (after three trips)
go “OFF". However, the corresponding diagnostic
trouble code will be stored in the memory. When
unexpected diagnostic trouble codes appear, check fo
r
an intermittent malfunction.
A diagnostic trouble code may reset. Consult the
“Diagnostic Aids" associated with the diagnostic trouble
code. A physical inspection of the applicable sub–
system most often will resolve the problem.
Data Link Connector (DLC)
The provision for communication with the control
module is the Data Link Connector (DLC). The DLC is
used to connect to a Tech 2. Some common uses o
f
the Tech 2 are listed below:

Identifying stored Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).

Clearing DTCs.

Performing out put control tests.

Reading serial data.








060RW046
Verifying Vehicle Repair
Verification of vehicle repair will be more
comprehensive for vehicles with OBD system
diagnostic. Following a repair, the technician should
perform the following steps:
1. Review and record the Fail Records and/or Freeze
Frame data for the DTC which has been diagnosed
(Freeze Frame data will only be stored for an A or B
type diagnostic and only if the MIL has been
requested).
2. Clear DTC(s).
3. Operate the vehicle within conditions noted in the
Fail Records and/or Freeze Frame data.
4. Monitor the DTC status information for the specific
DTC which has been diagnosed until the diagnostic
test associated with that DTC runs.
Following these steps are very important in verifyin
g
repairs on OBD systems. Failure to follow these steps
could result in unnecessary repairs.
Reading Flash Diagnostic Trouble Codes
The provision for communicating with the Engine
Control Module (ECM) is the Data Link Connecto
r
(DLC). The DLC is located behind the lower front
instrument panel. It is used in the assembly plant to
receive information in checking that the engine is
operating properly before it leaves the plant.
The diagnostic trouble code(s) (DTCs) stored in the
ECM's memory can be read either through a hand-held
diagnostic scanner plugged into the DLC or by counting
the number of flashes of the Check Engine Lamp (MIL)
when the diagnostic test terminal of the DLC is
grounded. The DLC terminal “6" (diagnostic request) is
pulled “Low" (grounded) by jumpering to DLC terminal
“4", which is a ground wire.
This will signal the ECM that you want to “flash" DTC(s),
if any are present. Once terminals “4" and “6" have
been connected, the ignition switch must be moved to
the “ON" position, with the engine not running. At this
point, the “Check Engine" MIL should flash DTC12
three times consecutively.
This would be the following flash, sequence: "flash,
pause, flash?flash, long pause, flash, pause,
flash?flash, long pause, flash, pause, flash?flash". DTC
12 indicates that the ECM's diagnostic system is
operating. If DTC 12 is not indicated, a problem is
present within the diagnostic system itself, and should
be addressed by consulting the appropriate diagnostic
chart in DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS.
Following the output of DTC 12, the “Check Engine" MIL
will indicate a DTC three times if a DTC is present, or i
t
will simply continue to output DTC12. If more than one
DTC three has been stored in the ECM's memory, the
DTC(s) will be output from the lowest to the highest,
with each DTC being displayed three times.
Reading Diagnostic Trouble Codes Using a
TECH 2
The procedure for reading diagnostic trouble code(s) is
to used a diagnostic Tech 2. When reading DTC(s),
follow instructions supplied by Tech 2 manufacturer.
For the 1998 model year, Isuzu dealer service
departments will continue to use Tech 2.

Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes
Important: Do not clear DTCs unless directed to do so
by the service information provided for each diagnostic
procedure. When DTCs are cleared, the Freeze Frame
and Failure Record data which may help diagnose an
intermittent fault will also be erased from memory.
If the fault that caused the DTC to be stored into
memory has been corrected, the Diagnostic Executive
will begin to count the “warm-up" cycles with no furthe
r
faults detected, the DTC will automatically be cleared
from the ECM memory.
To clear Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs), use the
Tech 2 “clear DTCs" or “clear information" function.
When clearing DTCs follow instructions supplied by the
Tech 2 manufacturer.
When a Tech 2 is not available, DTCs can also be
cleared by disconnecting one of the following sources
for at least thirty (30) seconds.
To prevent system damage, the ignition key must be
“OFF" when disconnecting or reconnecting battery
power.

The power source to the control module. Examples:
fuse, pigtail at battery ECM connectors etc.

The negative battery cable. (Disconnecting the
negative battery cable will result in the loss of othe
r
on-board memory data, such as preset radio tuning).
On-Board Diagnosis (Self-Diagnosis)
1. The Engine Control Module (ECM) conducts a
self-test of most of the wiring and components in
the system each time the key is turned to ON, and
can detect faults in the system while the key is ON.
If a fault is detected, the ECM will store a trouble
code in memory and flash the CHECK ENGINE
indicator to alert the driver.
2. The Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) can be
displayed by shorting together terminals and the
Data Link Connector (DLC) located belo
w
Instrument Panel of drivers side.
The CHECK ENGINE indicator will flash DTC 12
three times, followed by any DTC.If several DTC are
stored, each DTC will be displayed three times. The
DTC will be displayed in numerical order. The DTC
display will continue as long as the DLC is shorted.
Some DTC can cause other DTC to be stored, It is
important to diagnose and repair the lowes
t
numbered DTC first before going on to the highe
r
numbered DTC.
