PCM or performing resistance tests.
NOTE: Perform all resistance and voltage tests using a Digital
Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm impedance,
unless stated otherwise in test procedures.
Using scan tool, display and record Diagnostic Trouble DTCs
(DTCs). See ENTERING ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTICS under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC
SYSTEM. If scan tool is blank, see SCAN TOOL WILL NOT COMMUNICATE. If
no DTCs are displayed, see H - TESTS W/O CODES article.
Clear DTCs. See CLEARING DTCS under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM.
Road test vehicle (if necessary) and attempt to duplicate conditions
that caused original complaint. Recheck for DTCs. If no DTCs are
displayed, go to INTERMITTENT DTCS. If one or more DTCs are displayed,
repair DTCs in order, starting with lowest numbered DTC. Clear DTCs
after each repair. Recheck for DTCs to confirm repair.
SCAN TOOL WILL NOT COMMUNICATE
NOTE: For terminal identification, see TERMINAL IDENTIFICATION. For
circuit and wire color identification, see
L - WIRING DIAGRAMS article.
1) Using DVOM, check voltage between Data Link Connector
(DLC) terminal No. 16 and chassis ground. If battery voltage does not
exist, check and repair junction connectors and wiring harness between
DLC and power supply.
2) If battery voltage exists, check for continuity between
DLC terminal No. 4 and chassis ground, and between DLC terminal No. 5
and chassis ground. If continuity does not exist, check and repair
wiring harness between DLC and chassis ground. If continuity exists,
go to next step.
3) Try a different scan tool adapter cable. If scan tool does
not communicate, try scan tool on a known-good vehicle. If scan tool
still does not communicate, replace scan tool.
INTERMITTENT DTCS
This procedure applies if you have been sent here from
diagnostic tests and have just attempted to simulate the condition
that initially set DTC. The following additional checks may assist in
identifying a possible intermittent problem:
* Visually inspect related wiring harness connectors for
broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals.
* Visually inspect related wiring harness for chafed, pierced
or partially broken wires.
* Check all pertinent technical service bulletins.
DTC P0100: VOLUME AIRFLOW (VAF) SENSOR CIRCUIT FAILURE
NOTE: For terminal identification, see TERMINAL IDENTIFICATION. For
circuit and wire color identification, see
L - WIRING DIAGRAMS article.
NOTE: Procedures are provided by manufacturer for component
testing using an engine analyzer with oscilloscope
capability. Refer to manufacturer's operation manual for
instructions in use of oscilloscope.
1) If using scan tool, go to step 3). Disconnect VAF sensor
connector. Install Test Harness (MB991348) between VAF sensor and
connector. Using engine analyzer with oscilloscope capability, connect

Tighten wheel lug nuts to 72-87 ft. lbs. (100-120 N.m).
BATTERY SPECIFICATIONS
CAUTION: When battery is disconnected, vehicles equipped with
computers may lose memory data. When battery power is
restored, driveability problems may exist on some vehicles.
These vehicles may require a relearn procedure. See
COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES article in the GENERAL
INFORMATION Section.
Battery is maintenance-free and does not normally require
additional water. However, under severe conditions it is advisable to
check battery fluid periodically. Use only distilled water to fill
battery cell should it become necessary to add water. Charge condition
can be checked by a visual test indicator on top of battery.
CAUTIONS & WARNINGS
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (AIR BAG)
NOTE: See the AIR BAGS article in the ACCESSORIES/SAFETY EQUIPMENT
Section.
Modifications or improper maintenance, including incorrect
removal and installation of the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS),
can adversely affect system performance. DO NOT cover, obstruct or
change the steering wheel horn pad in any way, as such action could
cause improper function of the system. Use only plain water when
cleaning the horn pad. Solvents or cleaners could adversely affect the
air bag cover and cause improper deployment of the system.
WARNING: Service on or around Air Bag System Components or Wiring must
be preformed only by an authorized Suzuki dealer. Please
observe all WARNINGS and SERVICE PRECAUTIONS.
WARNING: Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds
after the ignition switch is turned to the LOCK position and
the cable is disconnected from the battery.
WARNING: Never attempt to disassemble or repair the passenger air
bag (inflator) module. If any abnormality is found, be sure
to replace it with new one as an assembly.
WARNING: To avoid injury from accidental air bag deployment, read and
carefully follow all warnings and service precautions. See
appropriate AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEM article in the
ACCESSORIES/SAFETY EQUIPMENT section.
CAUTION: Disconnect negative battery cable before servicing any air
bag system, steering column or passenger side dash
component. After any repair, turn ignition key to the ON
position from passenger's side of vehicle in case of
accidental air bag inflation
AIR CONDITIONING SERVICING
WARNING: Avoid breathing R-134a refrigerant and PAG lubricant vapors,
exposure may irritate eyes, nose and throat. To remove
R-134a from system use R-134a recycling equipment that meets
