NOTE: The original radio has a coded theft protection circuit. lt service to the car requires any of the lollowing, be sure
to get the customer's code number before- disconnecting the battery.- removing No. 32 (7.5 Al fuse from the under-hood fuse/relay box- removing the radio,
After service, reconnect power to the radio and turn it on. When the word "CODE" is displayed, enter the customer's
s-digir code to restore radio operation,
Use either a JCI or Bear ARBST tester, and follow the manufacturer's procedures. It you don'r have one of these com-puterized testers, follow this conventional test procedure:
To get accurate results, the temperature ot the electrolyte must be between TOoF l21ool and IOOoF {38oCl.
lf the case is cracked or the posts are loose,
replace the battery.
lf the indicator shows low electrolvte, add
distilled water it oossible.

lgnition Timing Inspection and Setting
1.Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,00O rpm with
no load (A/T in S or E position, M/T in neutral) until
the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
Pull out the service check connector located behind
the right kick panel. Connect the BRN/WHT and BLK
terminals with the SCS short connector.
4. Adiust ignition timing, if necessary, to the follow-
ing specifications:
lgnition Timing:
16 t 2 BTDC (RED) at 75O 1 50 rpm in noutral
NOTE:
a Shift lever must be in neutral.

Spark Plug Inspection
1. Inspect the electrodes and ceramic insulator for:
. rmproper gap. Oil-touling. Carbon deposits. Cracked centerelectrode insulatorDamagedgask6t
Burned or worn electlodes may be caused by:. Advanced ignition timing. Loose spark plug. Plug heat range too low. Insufficient cooling
Fouled plug may be caused by:. Retarded ignition timing. Oil in combustion chamber. lncorrect spark plug gap. Plug heat range too high. txcessive idling/low speed running. Clogged air cleaner element. Deteriorated ignition coil or ignition wires
Check the electrode gap.
Bl88l engine:
a Adjust the gap with a suitable gapping tool.
Electrode Gap
Standard: 1.0-1.1 mm (O.O39-0.O43 in)
1.1 mm{0.0,$ in)
Replace the plug if the center electrode is round-
ed as shown below:
ROUNDEDELECTROOE
Bl8Cl engine:
a Make sure that the '1.4 mm (0.055 in) wire-typeplug gauge does not go into the gap for the plati-
num tip plug. lf the gauge goes into the gap, do
not attempt to adjust the side electrode; replace
the plug with a new one. Use only the spark plugs
listed below.
ROUNDEO ELECTRODE
Electrode GapStandard: 1 .2-'l .3 mm{0.047 -O.051 in)Service Limit: 1.4 mm{0.055 in)
CAUTION: Do not use a blade-type plug gaugs, it
may damage the platinum tip of the center olectrodo.

Alternator Replacement
NOTE: The original radio has a coded theft protection
circuit. Be sure to get the customer's code number before
- disconnecting the battery.- removing the No. 32 {7.5 A) fuse from the under-hood
fuse/relay box.- removing the radio.
After service, reconnect powet to the radio and turn it on.
When the word "CODE" is displayed, enler the cus-
tomer's 5-digit code to restore radio operation.
1 . Disconnect the ground cable from the battery nega-
tive (- ) terminal.
2. Disconnect the alternator connector from the al-
rernaror.

NOTE: Reconnect the battery ground cable and turn
the radio on. When the word "CODE" is displayed,
enter the customer's 5-digit code.

RectifierTest
NOTE: The diodes are designed to allow current to pass
in one direction while blocking it in the opposite direc-
lion. Each diode must be tested for continuitv in both
directions with an ohmmeter that has diode checking
capability. Since the alternator rectifier is made up of
eight diodes (four pairs), there are a total of '16 checks,
1. Check for continuity in each ditection between the
B and P terminals, and between the E (ground) and
P terminals of each diode pair. All diodes should have
continuity in only one direction,
lf any of the eight diodes tails, replace the rectifier
assembly. (Diodes are not available separately.)

holder by removing its two screws
Measure the length of the brushes with a vernier
calioer.
