P(1) Be sure that fuel is enough in tank.
(2) Turn ignition switch on.
(3) Using SST, connect terminals FP and + B of checkconnector.

Check that pulsation damper screw rises up when termi-
nals are connected.
Caution:
Never make a mistake with the terminal connection
position as this will cause a malfunction.
Proceed to page FI±18 and continue to troubleshoot.
8Check for spark.
C
Hint
Disconnect the high±tension cord from the distributor
and, hold the end about 12.5 mm (1/2º) from the ground,
see if spark occurs while the engine is being cranked.
To prevent excessive fuel injected from the injectors dur-
ing this test, Don't crank the engine for more than 1 ± 2
seconds at a time.
Proceed to the page IG±6 and continue to troubleshoot.

Back±Up Function
If there is trouble with the program in the ECU and the ignition signals\
(IGT) are not output, the ECU controls
fuel injection and ignition timing at predetermined levels as a back±up f\
unction to make it possible to continue
to operate the vehicle.
Furthermore, the injection duration is calculated from the starting sign\
al (STA) and the throttle position signal
(IDL). Also, the ignition timing is fixed at the initial ignition timing, 10 5 BTDC, without relation to the engine speed.
HINT: If the engine is controlled by the back±up function, the ºCHECKº\
engine warning light lights up to warn
the driver of the malfunction but the diagnostic code is not output. TR±26

TERMINALS OF ECU
Connectors of the engine & ECT ECU are water±proof and are the
bolt type.
For water proof type connectors, in order to measure the voltage
of ECU terminals and the resistance of connected parts, connect
the inspection sub wire harness between the ECU and vehicle
wire harness, then perform the inspection. The inspection method
of inserting a tester probe from the other side of connector notice-
ably reduces the water±proof ability.
Disconnect the connector by fully loosening the bolt.
PREPARATION
1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK position.
2. Turn up the passenger side floor mat.
3. Remove the ECU protector.
4. Disconnect the connector from the ECU. After completely loosening the bolt, the two parts of the con-
nector can be separated.
NOTICE:
w Do not pully the wire harness when disconnecting the
connector.
w When disconnecting the connector, the ECU's backup
power source is cut off, so the malfunction codes, etc.
recorded in the ECU memory are cancelled.
w Never insert a tester probe or male terminal used for
inspection purposes into the female terminal of the
vehicle wire harness. Otherwise, the female terminal may
be widened, which can result in faulty connection.
5. Connect the Check Harness A between ECU and connector
of vehicle wire harness.
SST 09990±01000
HINT: The arrangement of the check connector terminals are
the same as those of the ECU.
See page TR±31
6. Disconnect the Check Harness A.
7. Reconnect the connector to the ECU.
(a) Match the male connector correctly with the femaleconnector, then press them together.
(b) Tighten the bolt Make sure the connector is completely connected, by
tightening the bolt until there is a clearance of less than
1 mm (0.04 in.) between bottom of the male connector
and end of the female connector.
8. Install the ECU protector and floor mat.
