A/C SYSTEM CIRCUIT DIAGNOSIS



RTW36EMF000101

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
When air conditioning and blower fan are selected, and
if the system has a sufficient refrigerant charge, a
12-volt signal is supplied to the A/C request input of the
Engine Control Module (ECM). The A/C request signal
may be temporarily canceled during system operation
by the electronic thermostat in the evaporator case. The
electronic thermostat may intermittently remove the
control circuit ground for the A/C thermostat relay to
prevent the evaporator from forming ice. When the A/C
request signal is received by the ECM, the ECM
supplies a ground from the compressor clutch relay i
f
the engine operating conditions are within acceptable
ranges. With the A/C compressor relay energized,
voltage is supplied to the compressor clutch coil.
The ECM will enable the compressor clutch to engage
whenever A/C has been selected with the engine
running, unless any of the following conditions are
present:

 The A/C request switch is "Off".
 The engine speed is lower than 550rpm or greate
r
than 6375rpm.
 The engine coolant temperature is greater than
120
.
DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
To diagnose an the intermittent fault, check for the
following conditions:
 Poor connection at the ECM–Inspect connections fo
r
backed-out terminals, improper mating, broken locks,
improperly formed or damaged terminals, and poo
r
terminal-to-wire connection.
 Damaged harness–Inspect the wiring harness fo
r
damage. If the harness appears to OK, observe the
A/C clutch while moving connectors and wiring
harnesses related to the A/C. A sudden clutch
malfunction will indicate the source of the intermitten
t
fault.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The engine control module (ECM) controls engine idle
speed by adjusting the position of the idle air control
(IAC) motor pintle. The IAC is a bi-directional steppe
r
motor driven by two coils. The ECM applies current to
the IAC coils in steps (counts) to extend the IAC pintle
into a passage in the throttle body to decrease air flow.
The ECM reverses the current to retract the pintle,
increasing air flow. This method allows highly accurate
control of idle speed and quick response to changes in
engine load. If the ECM detects a condition where too
low of an idle speed is present and the ECM is unable
to adjust idle speed by increasing the IAC counts, DTC
P1508 or P1509 will set, indicating a problem with the
idle control system.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
Check for the following conditions:
 Poor connection at ECM or IAC motor –Inspec
t
harness connectors for backed-out terminals,
improper mating, broken locks, improperly formed o
r
damaged terminals, and poor terminal-to-wire
connection.
 Damaged harness – Inspect the wiring for damage.
 Restricted air intake system – Check for a possible
collapsed air intake duct, restricted air filter element,
or foreign objects blocking the air intake system.

Engine Oil Pressure Check
1. Check for dirt, gasoline or water in the engine
oil.
a. Check the viscosity of the oil.
b. Change the oil if the viscosity is outside the
specified standard.
c. Refer to the "Maintenance and Lubrication"
section of this manual.
2. Check the engine oil level.
The level should fall somewhere between the
"ADD" and the "FULL" marks on the oil level
dipstick.
If the oil level does not reach the "ADD" mark on
the oil level dipstick, engine oil must be added. 3. Remove the oil pressure unit.
4. Install an oil pressure gauge.
5. Start the engine and allow the engine to reach
normal operating temperature (About 80
C).
6. Measure the oil pressure.
Oil pressure should be:
150 kPa(21.8 psi) at idle speed.
7. Stop the engine.
8. Remove the oil pressure gauge
9. Install the oil pressure unit.
10. Start the engine and check for leaks.

6D2-2 IGNITION SYSTEM



General Description
Ignition is done by the Ignition Module that fires.
Since the cylinder on exhaust stroke requires less energy to
fire its spark plug, energy from the ignition coils can be utilized
to fire the mating cylinder on compression stroke.
A notch in the timing disc on the crankshaft activates the crank
angle sensor which then sends information such as firing order
and starting timing of ignition coil to the ECM.
By receiving signals such as crank position, engine speed,
water temperature and Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP), the
ECM controls the ignition timing.




Service Precaution
CAUTION:
Always use the correct fastener in the proper location.
When you replace a fastener, use ONLY the exact part
number for that application. ISUZU will call out those
fasteners that require a replacement after removal. ISUZU
will also call out the fasteners that require thread lockers
or thread sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, do
not use supplemental coatings (Paints, greases, or other
corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or fastener
joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings adversely affect
the fastener torque and the joint clamping force, and may
damage the fastener. When you install fasteners, use the
correct tightening sequence and specifications. Following
these instructions can help you avoid damage to parts
and systems.

electronic ignition system (El system).
