Z1660236When a normal close type relay as illustrated here is
checked, there should be continuity between terminals
(1) and (2) and between terminals 3 and 4 when the relay
is deenergized, and the continuity should be lost betweenterminals 3 and 4 when the battery voltage is applied
to the terminals
1 and 2. A relay can be checked in this
manner and it cannot be determined if a relay is okay
or faulty by checking its state only when it is deenergized
(or energized),
CHECKING FUSESA blade type fuse has test taps provided to allow checking
of the fuse itself without removing it from the fuse block. Thefuse is okay if the test light comes on when its one lead is
connected to the test taps (one at a time) and the other lead
is grounded. (Change the ignition switch position adequatelyso that the fuse circuit becomes live.)
CAUTIONS IN EVENT OF BLOWN FUSE
When a fuse is blown, there are two probable causes as follows:One is that it is blown due to flow of current exceeding its
rating.The other is that it is blown due to repeated on/off current
flowing through it. Which of the two causes is responsible
can be easily determined by visual check as described below.(1) Fuse blown due to current exceeding rating
The illustration shows the state of a fuse blown due to
this cause. In this case, do not replace the fuse with a
new one hastily since a current heavy enough to blow
the fuse has flowed through it. First, check the circuit
for shorting and check for abnormal electric parts. Only
after the correction of such shorting or parts, fuse of the
same capacity should be used as a replacement. Never
use a fuse of larger capacity than the one that has blown.
If such a fuse is used, electric parts or wirings could be
damaged before the fuse blows in the event an overcurrent
occurs again.(2) Fuse blown due to repeated current on/off
The illustration shows the state of a fuse blown due to
repeated current on/off. Normally, this type of problem
occurs after fairly long period of use and hence is less
frequent than the above type. In this case, you may simplyreplace with a new fuse of the same capacity.

running performance changes or not.
Caution
Wear rubber gloves while doing so.(2) If the engine performance does not change, check the
resistance of the spark plug cable, and check the spark
plug itself.SPARK PLUG TEST
(1) Remove the spark plug and connect to the spark plug
cable.
(2) Ground the spark plug outer electrode (body), and crank

TROUBLESHOOTING
LHEADLIGHT
OPERATION
<Headlights ON operation>
lTurn the lighting switch to “HEAD”, and the con-
tact point of the headlight relay will be closedto turn “ON” the headlight relay.
lWhen the dimmer switch is placed in the LO
position, the headlight low-beams go on. On
vehicles up to 1993 model, when the switch
is placed in the HI position, the headlight high-
beams go on. On vehicles from 1994 model,when the switch is placed in the HI position,
the headlight high-beams and low-beams go
on.
<High-beam indicator light>l
When the high-beam is lit or when the passing
switch is activated, the high-beam indicator lightwill be lit.
<Light automatic shut-OFF system>l
If the driver’s door is opened after the ignition
switch is turned to “OFF” or the ignition switchis turned to “OFF” after the driver’s door is
opened when the headlights are lit, the currentwhich flows to the coil side of the headlight
relay will be cut off by the light automatic shut-OFF unit opening the contact point, and the
headlight relay will be turned “OFF” to automati-
cally shut off the headlights.l
To turn the headlights on again after they are
automatically shut off, turn the lighting switchto “OFF” once and then back to “HEAD”, or
turn the ignition switch to “ACC” or “ON”, and
the
aut0mati.c shut-OFF will be cancelled andthe current will flow from the light automatic
shut-OFF unit to the coil side of the headlightrelay again to close the contact point. Thus,
the headlight relay will be turned “ON” to turnon the headlights.
NOTEWhen the lighting switch is at “HEAD”, the light
automatic shut-OFF system is valid for tail lights,
parking and side marker lights, license plate light,
illumination light, etc.(Refer to
P.54-70.)
<Pop-upoperation-operationswitch> (Up to 1993 models)by lighting
l
When the lighting switch is placed in the HEAD
position, current flows through multi-purpose
fuse (6) to the lighting switch, and the ETACScontrol unit. Then the UP timer circuit in the
LETACS control unit is operated, and currentflows from the ETACS control unit to the U con-tact of the pop-up motor U/D (UP/DOWN)
switch, the coil of the pop-up motor relay and
ground, causing the contacts of the pop-up mo-
tor relay to close.
When the contacts of the pop-up motor relay
close, current flows through the contacts of the
pop-up motor relay to the pop-up motor and
ground, causing the pop-up motor to rotate,
which brings the headlights to the UP position.
The pop-up motor rotates until the automatic
UP stop position is reached, then the contactsof the interlocked U/D (UP/DOWN) switch
change from the U to D contacts. As a result,
the contacts of the pop-up motor relay opento cut off the current supplied to the pop-up
motor. Then the pop-up motor ceases to rotate,
holding the headlights in the UP position.l
When the lighting switch is placed in the TAIL
or OFF position, current flows through the multi-
purpose fuse (6) to the lighting switch, and the
ETACS control unit. Then the DOWN timer cir-
cuit in the ETACS control unit is operated and
current flows from the ETACS control unit to
the DOWN contacts of the pop-up motor U/D
(UP/DOWN) switch, the coil of the pop-up motor
relay and ground, causing the contacts of the
pop-up motor relay to close.
When the contacts of the pop-up motor relay
close, current flows through the contacts of the
pop-up motor relay to the pop-up motor andground, causing the pop-up motor to rotate,
which brings the headlights to the DOWN posi-
tion.
The pop-up motor rotates until the automatic
DOWN stop position is reached, then the con-
tacts of the interlocked U/D (UP/DOWN) switch
change from the D to U contacts. As a result,
the contacts of the pop-up motor relay open
to cut off current supply to the pop-up motor.
Then the pop-up motor ceases to rotate, holding
the headlights in the DOWN position.
<Pop-upoperation-operation
switch> (Up to 1993 models)by POPUPl
When the pop-up switch is placed in the UP
position, current flows through multi-purpose
fuse (6) to the lighting switch, the pop-up switch
and the ETACS control unit, which brings the
headlights to the UP position and holds them
in the UP position just like when they are oper-
ated by the lighting switch.l
When the pop-up switch is placed in the DOWN
position, current flows through the multi-purpose
fuse (6) to the lighting switch, the pop-up switch
and the ETACS control unit, which brings the
headlights to the DOWN position and holds them
in the DOWN position just like when they are
operated by the lighting switch.

A-2Noise appears at certain places when traveling (FM).Do the following measures eliminate the noise?
YeslChange to a different station with a strong signal to boost resistance to interference.l Suppress high tones to reduce noise.+3cll Extend antenna completely. (Whip antenna)
No
tIf there is more noise than other radios, find out the noise conditions and the name and frequency
of the receiving stations from the user, and consult with the service center.
NOTE
About FM waves:
FM waves have the same properties as light, and
can be deflected and blocked. Wave reception isnot possible in the shadow of obstructions such
as buildings or mountains.
1.The signal becomes weak as the distance from
the station’s transmission antenna increases.
Although this may vary according to the signal
strength of the transmitting station and interven-ing geographical formations or buildings, the
area of good reception is approx.
20-25 km
(12-l 6 miles) for stereo reception, and 30-40km (19-25 miles) for monaural reception.
2. The signal becomes weak. when an area of
shadow from the transmitting antenna (places
where there are obstructions such as mountains
3.
4.
or buildings between the antenna and.the car),
and noise will appear. <This is called first fading,
and gives a steady buzzing noise.>
If a direct signal hits the antenna at the same
time as a signal reflected by obstructions such
as mountains or buildings, interference of the
two signals will generate noise. During traveling,
noise will appear each time the vehicle’s anten-
na passes through this kind of obstructed area.The strength and interval of the noise varies
according to the signal strength and the condi-tions of deflection.
<This is called multipath
noise, and is a repetitious buzzing.>Since FM stereo transmission and reception
has a weaker field than monaural, it is often
accompanied by a hissing noise.FM Broadcast Good Reception Areas
