• Be sure to read “Precautions for Electrical Circuit Service in Section 00” befo re inspection and observe 
what is written there.
• ECM replacement: When substituting a known-good ECM, check for the 
following conditions. Neglec ting this check may cause 
damage to a known-good ECM.
– Resistance value of all relays, actuators is as  specified respectively.
– MAP sensor, A/C refrigerant pressure sensor and  TP sensor are in good condition and none of power 
circuits of these sensors is shorted to ground.
• Communication of  ECM, BCM, ABS/ESP ® control 
module, combination meter,  keyless start control 
module, steering angle sensor (ESP ® model) and 
TCM (A/T model), is esta blished by CAN (Controller 
Area Network). (For more detail of CAN 
communication for ECM, refer to “CAN 
Communication System Description”). Therefore, 
handle CAN communication line with care referring to 
“Precaution for CAN Communication System in 
Section 00”.
• Immobilizer transponder  code registration after 
replacing ECM
When ECM is replaced with new one or with another 
one, make sure to register  immobilizer transponder 
code to ECM correctly according to “Procedure after 
ECM Replacement in Section 10C”.Precautions of ECM Circuit InspectionS7RS0B1100003
• ECM connectors are waterproofed. Each terminal of  the ECM connectors is sealed up with the grommet. 
Therefore, when measuring ci rcuit voltage, resistance 
and/or pulse signal at ECM connector, do not insert 
the tester’s probe into th e sealed terminal at the 
harness side. When measuring circuit voltage, 
resistance and/or pulse signal at ECM connector, 
connect the special tool to the ECM connectors. And, 
insert the tester’s probe into the special tool’s 
connectors at the harness side, and then measure 
voltage, resistance and/or pulse signal. Or, ECM and 
its circuits may be damaged by water.
• Wire colors of the special tool’s connectors are  different from the ones of the ECM connectors. 
However, the circuit arrangement of the special tool’s 
connectors is same as the one of the ECM 
connectors. Therefore, measure circuit voltage and 
resistance by identifying the terminal location subject 
to the measurement.
Precautions of Electric Throttle Body System 
Calibration
S7RS0B1100004
After performing one of works described below, it is 
necessary to re-register the completely closed throttle 
valve reference position stored in memory of ECM. (For 
detailed information, refer to  “Description of Electric 
Throttle Body System Calibration”.) For the procedure to 
register such data in ECM, refer to “Electric Throttle 
Body System Calibration in Section 1C”.
• To shut off backup power of ECM for such purposes of  battery replacement or “DOME” fuse removal
• To erase DTCs P0122, P01 23, P0222, P0223, P2101, 
P2102, P2103, P2111, P2112, P2113, P2119, P2123,

General Description
Statement on Cleanliness and CareS7RS0B1101001
An automobile engine is a combination of many 
machined, honed, polished and lapped surfaces with 
tolerances that are measured  in the thousands of an 
millimeter (ten thous ands of an inch).
Accordingly, when any internal engine parts are 
serviced, care and cleanliness are important.
It should be understood that proper cleaning and 
protection of machined surfaces and friction areas is part 
of the repair procedure. This is considered standard 
shop practice even if not  specifically stated.
• A liberal coating of engine oil should be applied to  friction areas during assembly to protect and lubricate 
the surfaces on initial operation. • Whenever valve train components, pistons, piston 
rings, connecting rods, rod bearings, and crankshaft 
journal bearings are removed for service, they should 
be retained in order.
At the time of installation,  they should be installed in 
the same locations and with the same mating 
surfaces as when removed.
• Battery cables should be disconnected before any  major work is performed on the engine.
Failure to disconnect cables  may result in damage to 
wire harness or other electrical parts.

Description of Electric Throttle Body System CalibrationS7RS0B1101008
ECM calculates controlled opening of the throttle valve on the basis of the completely closed throttle valve position of 
the electric throttle body system. The  completely closed position data is saved in memory of ECM. However, the 
completely closed position of the  throttle valve of the electric throttle body  system (signal voltage from throttle position 
sensor when throttle is completely closed) differs one from  the other depending on individual differences of the throttle 
valve and throttle position sensor. As such individual diff erences must be taken into account for controlling the throttle 
valve, it is necessary to register the completely closed  throttle valve position data in ECM. When such data is 
registered in ECM, it is sa ved in RAM (memory) of ECM and used as the  base data for controlling the throttle valve.
This data is cleared, when any of the works described in “Preca utions of Electric Throttle Body System Calibration” is 
performed.
Also, after replacement of the  throttle body and/or APP sensor , the completely closed position data in memory of ECM 
must be cleared once and a new one must be registered, or ECM cannot judge the complete closure position properly.
For the procedure to register such data, refer to “Electric  Throttle Body System Calibration in Section 1C”. (After the 
completely closed position data is cleared , ECM, for the first time only, opens and closes the throttle valve for about 5 
seconds after the ignition switch is turned ON position, for re gistration of the completely closed throttle valve position. 
If the engine is started during this registration process, such symptom as “longe r cranking” or “slow rise of revolution 
speed immediately after start-up” may occur. However, turning OFF the ignition switch  once and restarting will set 
correct registration.)

Generator Control System DescriptionS7RS0B1101010
Generator Control System consists of a generator (1), electric load current sensor (7) located in the main fuse box (4) 
and ECM (5).
ECM controls generated electricity (adjusting  voltage of IC regulator (2)) so that it is suitable for the engine and electric 
load conditions. When the electric load increases quickly,  generation load of the generator increases quickly and 
causes idling to change. To  prevent this, ECM makes generated electricity volume vary gradually  to stabilize idling. 
Also, it reduces the engine load caused by temporary incr ease in electricity generation to cope with the engine 
condition (such as when accelerating).
Operation
ECM controls the generated voltage of the generator using “C” terminal (generator control terminal) duty, based on 
following information.
• Engine condition (ECT, vehicle speed, engine speed, TP, etc.) (9)
• Battery voltage (ECM backup power voltage) (10)
• Electric load condition (blower motor, rear defogger, head lights, radiator fan, A/C, etc.) (11)
• “FR” terminal output (field coil (3) cont rol duty) which indicates the operation rate  (electricity generation condition) of 
the generator.
Then the generator uses “C” terminal duty to regulate the adju sting voltage of the IC regulator with the field coil control 
duty so as to control its generated voltage (“B” terminal output voltage).
(For more information of the generated voltage, refer  to “Charging System Specifications in Section 1J”.)
Furthermore, the generation condition of the generator is co ntrolled to the optimum level by the electric load current 
sensor (7) which detects the electrical load condition (cur rent consumption) linearly even when a sudden electrical 
load variation occurs and thus the engine load is reduced.

Step 2: DTC / Freeze Frame Data Check, Record and 
Clearance
First, check DTC (including pending DTC), referring to 
“DTC Check”. If DTC is indicated, print it and freeze 
frame data or write them down and then clear them by 
referring to “DTC Clearance”. DTC indicates malfunction 
that occurred in the system but does not indicate 
whether it exists now or it occurred in the past and the 
normal condition has been restored now. To check which 
case applies, check the sy mptom in question according 
to Step 5 and recheck DTC according to Step 6 and 7.
Attempt to diagnose a trouble based on DTC in this step 
only or failure to  clear the DTC in this step will lead to 
incorrect diagnosis, trouble diagnosis of a normal circuit 
or difficulty in troubleshooting.
Step 3 and 4: Visual Inspection
As a preliminary step, be sure  to perform visual check of 
the items that support proper function of the engine 
referring to “Visual Inspection”.
Step 5: Trouble Symptom Confirmation
Based on information obtained in “Step 1: Customer 
Complaint Analysis: ” and “Step 2: DTC / Freeze Frame 
Data Check, Record and Clearance: ”, confirm trouble 
symptoms. Also, reconfirm  DTC according to “DTC 
Confirmation Procedure” described in each DTC diag. 
flow.
Step 6 and 7: Rechecking and Record of DTC / 
Freeze Frame Data
Refer to “DTC Check” for checking procedure.
Step 8: Engine Basic Inspection and Engine 
Symptom Diagnosis
Perform basic engine check according to “Engine Basic 
Inspection” first. When the  end of the flow has been 
reached, check the parts of the system suspected as a 
possible cause referring to “Engine Symptom Diagnosis” 
and based on symptoms appearing on the vehicle 
(symptoms obtained through steps of customer 
complaint analysis, trouble symptom confirmation and/or 
basic engine check) and repair or replace faulty parts, if 
any.
Step 9: Troubleshooting for DTC (See each DTC 
Diag. Flow)
Based on the DTC indicated in Step 6 or 7 and referring 
to the applicable DTC diag. flow, locate the cause of the 
trouble, namely in a sensor, switch, wire harness, 
connector, actuator, ECM or other part and repair or 
replace faulty parts. Step 10: Intermittent Problems Check
Check parts where an intermit
tent trouble is easy to 
occur (e.g., wire harness, connector, etc.), referring to 
“Intermittent and Poor Connec tion Inspection in Section 
00” and related circuit of DTC recorded in Step 2.
Step 11: Final Confirmation Test
Confirm that the problem symptom has gone and the 
engine is free from any abnormal conditions. If what has 
been repaired is re lated to the DTC, clear the DTC once, 
perform DTC confirmation procedure and confirm that no 
DTC is indicated.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) CheckS7RS0B1104002
1) Turn ON ignition switch (with engine at stop) and  check that MIL (1) lights.
If MIL does not light up (or MIL dims) but engine can 
be starting, go to “MIL Does Not Come ON with 
Ignition Switch ON and Engine Stop (but Engine Can 
Be Started)” for troubleshooting.
If MIL does not light with ignition switch ON and 
engine does not start though it is cranked up, go to 
“ECM Power and Ground Circuit Check”.
2) Start engine and check that MIL turns OFF. If MIL remains ON and no DTC is stored in ECM, go 
to “Malfunction Indicator Lamp Remains ON after 
Engine Starts” for troubleshooting.
