Precautions on Engine ServiceS6RW0D1100001
CAUTION!
The following information on engine service
should be noted carefully, as it is important in
preventing damage, and in contributing to
reliable engine performance.

• When raising or supporting engine for any reason, do
not use a jack under oil pan. Due to small clearance
between oil pan and oil pump strainer, jacking against
oil pan may cause it to be bent against strainer,
resulting in damaged oil pick-up unit.
• It should be kept in mind, while working on engine,
that 12-volt electrical system is capable of violent and
damaging short circuits.
When performing any work where electrical terminals
can be grounded, ground cable of the battery should
be disconnected at battery.
• Any time the air cleaner, throttle body or intake
manifold is removed, the intake opening should be
covered. This will protect against accidental entrance
of foreign material which could follow intake passage
into cylinder and cause extensive damage when
engine is started.
Precaution on On-Board Diagnostic (OBD)
System
S6RW0D1100006
There are two types of On-Board Diagnostic (OBD)
system, Euro OBD system and non-Euro-OBD system,
depending on the vehicle specification.
It is possible to identify each OBD system by checking if
it is equipped with the HO2S-2 or not.
• Euro OBD model is equipped with HO2S-2.
• Non-Euro-OBD model is not equipped with HO2S-2.
NOTE
For Taiwan model, bear in mind that it is non-
Euro-OBD model which is equipped with
HO2S-2.

As the diagnosis function is different between these two
types, be sure to fully understand the OBD system
referring to “On-Board Diagnostic System Description”.
OBD System Summary Table
Precautions in Diagnosing TroubleS6RW0D1100002
NOTE
There are two types of OBD system
depending on the vehicle specification.
For identification, refer to “Precaution on On-
Board Diagnostic (OBD) System”.

• Don’t disconnect ECM couplers from ECM, battery
cable from battery, ECM ground wire harness from
engine or main fuse before confirming diagnostic
information (DTC, freeze frame data, etc.) stored in
ECM memory. Such disconnection will erase
memorized information in ECM memory.
• Diagnostic information stored in ECM memory can be
cleared as well as checked by using SUZUKI scan
tool or CAN communication OBD generic scan tool.
Before using scan tool, read its Operator’s
(Instruction) Manual carefully to have good
understanding as to what functions are available and
how to use it.
For Euro OBD model, it is indistinguishable which
module turns on MIL because not only ECM but also
TCM (for A/T model) turns on MIL (for details of on-
board diagnostic system for A/T model, refer to “On-
Board Diagnostic System Description in Section 5A”
for A/T).
Therefore, check both ECM and TCM (for A/T model)
for DTC when MIL lights on.

Priority of freeze frame data:
ECM has 4 frames where the freeze frame data can be stored. The first frame stores the freeze frame data of the
malfunction which was detected first. However, the freeze frame data stored in this frame is updated according to the
priority described. (If malfunction as described in the upper square “1” is detected while the freeze frame data in the
lower square “2” has been stored, the freeze frame data “2” will be updated by the freeze frame data “1”.)
In the 2nd through the 4th frames, the freeze frame data of each malfunction is stored in the order as each malfunction
is detected. These data are not updated.
Shown in the table are examples of how freeze frame data are stored when two or more malfunctions are detected.
Freeze frame data clearance:
The freeze frame data is cleared at the same time as clearance of DTC.
Non-Euro-OBD Model
ECM diagnosis troubles which may occur in the area
including the following parts when the ignition switch is
ON and the engine is running, and indicates the result by
turning on malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) (1).
• Heated oxygen sensor-1
• Heated oxygen sensor-2
• ECT sensor
•TP sensor
• Throttle actuator
• MAF sensor
• IAT sensor
• CMP sensor
• CKP sensor
• Knock sensor
• Wheel speed sensor
• CPU (Central Processing Unit) of ECM
• APP sensor
• Oil control valve (VVT model)
• Barometric pressure sensor
• A/C refrigerant pressure sensor
• ECM backup power supply
• Fuel level sensor
•CANECM and MIL operate as follows.
• MIL lights when the ignition switch is turned ON (but
the engine at stop) with the diagnosis switch terminal
ungrounded regardless of the condition of Engine and
Emission control system. This is only to check MIL in
the combination meter and its circuit.
• If the above areas of Engine and Emission control
system is free from any trouble after the engine start
(while engine is running), MIL turns OFF.
• When ECM detects a trouble which has occurred in
the above areas, it makes MIL turn ON while the
engine is running to warn the driver of such
occurrence of trouble and at the same time it stores
the trouble area in ECM back-up memory. (The
memory is kept as it is even if the trouble was only
temporary and disappeared immediately. And it is not
erased unless the power to ECM is shut off for
specified time or it is cleared by SUZUKI scan tool
(SUZUKI-SDT) (2).)
