PGM-Fl System
The PGM-Fl system on this model is a sequential multiport fuel injection system.
Fuel iniecior Timing and Duration
The ECM/PCM contains memories for the basic discharge durations at various engine speeds and manifold pressure. The
basic discharge duration, after being read out from the memory, is further modified by signals sent from various sensors
to obtain the final discharge duration.
ldle Air Control
ldle Air Control Valve (lAC Valve)
When the engine is cold, the Ay'C compressor is on, the transmission is in gear, the brake pedal is depressed, the P/S load
is high, or the alternator is charging, the ECM/PCM controls current to the IAC Valve to maintain the correct idle speed.
lgnition Timing Control
o The ECM/PCM contains memories for basic ionition timing at various engine speeds and manifold air flow rates.
lgnition timing is also adjusted for engine coolant temperature.
. A knock control system was adopted which sets the ideal ig nition timing for the octane rating of the gasoline used.*s
Other Control Funstions
1. Starting Control
When the engine is started. the ECM/PCM provides a rich mixture by increasing fuel injector duration.
2. Fuel Pump Control
. When the ignition switch is initially turned on (ll). the ECMiPCM suppli€s ground to the PGM-FI main relay that
supplies current to the fuel pump for two seconds to pressurize the fuel system.
. When the engine is running, the ECM/PCM supplies ground to the PGM-FI main relay that supplies current to the
fuel oumo.
. When the engine is not running and the ignition is on, the ECM/PCM cuts ground to the PGM-FI main relay which
cuts current to the fuel pump.

PGM-FI System
Primary Heated Oxygen Sensor (Primary HO2S) (Sensor 1)
The Heated Oxygen Sensors (HO2S) detect the oxygen content in the exhaust gas and signal the ECM/PCM. In operation,
the ECM/PCM receives the signals from the sensor and varies the duration during which fuel is iniected. To stabilize the
sensor's output, the sensor has an internal heater. The Primary HO2S (Sensor 1) is installed in exhaust pipe A.

ldle Control System
System Description
The idle speed of the engjne is controlled by the ldle Air Control (lAC) Valve'
The valve changes the amount of air bypassing into the intake manifold in response to electric current controlled by the
ECM/PCM. When the lAc valve is activated, the valve opens to maintain the proper idle speed.
YEL/ From PGM'FI
BLK TMAIN RELAY
VARIOUSSENSORS
4.
IAC VALVE
INTAKE MANIFOLD
After the engine starts, the IAC valve opens for a certain time. The amount of air is increased to raise the idle speed
about 150 - 300 rpm.
when the cootant temperature ts row, the lAc valve is opened to obtain the proper fast idle speed The amount o{
bvoassed air is thus controlled in relation to the engine coolant temperature
When the idle speed is out o{ specification and the scan tool does not indicate Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0505
or P1508, check the following items:
. Adjust the idle speed (see page 11-169, 170)
. Air conditioning signal (seepagell-1551
. ALT FR signal (see page 1l-159)
. Starter switch signal (see page 11-16'1)
. A,/T gear position signal (see section 14)
. PSP switch signal (seepagell-162)
. Brake switch signal (see page 11-165)
. Fast idlethermovalve (see page'11 168)
. Hoses and connecttons. IAC valve and its mounting O-rings
lf the above items are normat, suDslitute a known-good IAC valve and readjust the idle speed {see page 11-169, 170)
lf the idle speed still cannot be adjusted to specification (and the scan tool does not indicate DTC P0505 or Pl508)
after IAC valve reolacement, substitute a known-good ECM/PCM and recheck lf symptom goes away' replace the
original ECM/PCM.
