CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION (Cont'd)
Purpose of the driving pattern.
(a) To simulate diag. code detecting condition after diag. code is recorded.
(b) To check that the malfunction is corrected when the repair is completed confirming that diag.code is no longer detected.
DIAGNOSIS CODE DETECTION DRIVING PATTERN
Initiate test mode (See page TR±12).
Start engine and warm up.
After engine is warmed up, let it idle for 3 min.
With the A/C ON and the transmission in D range (O/D ON), perform
gradual acceleration with in the range 1,300 ± 1,700 rpm (centered
around 1,500 rpm).
(Take care that the engine speed does not fall below 1,200 rpm when
shifting. Gradually depress the accelerator pedal and kept it. Steady so
that engine braking does not occur.)
Maintain the vehicle speed at 40 ± 50 mph (64 ± 80 km/h).
Keep the vehicle running for 1 ± 2 min. after starting acceleration.
HINT: If a malfunction exists, the ºCHECKº engine warning light will light\
up af-
ter approx. 60 sec. from the start of acceleration.
NOTICE: If the conditions in this test are not strictly followed, detection of the malfunction will not be possible.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1Disconnect the engine & ECT ECU connector, check voltage between terminals HTL1, HTR1 of
engine & ECT ECU connector and body ground.
C
OK
P(2) Connect the Check Harness A.(See page TR±30)
(2) Disconnect engine & ECT ECU connector.
(2) Turn ignition switch on.
Measure voltage beween terminals HTL1, HTR1 of en-
gine & ECT ECU connector and body ground.
Voltage: 10 ± 14 V
Go to step [3].
2Check main oxygen sensor heater.
C
OK
PDisconnect main oxygen sensor connector.
Measure resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of main
oxygen sensor connector.
Resistance: 5.1 ± 6.3

Hint
P(1) Connect engine & ECT ECU connector.
(2) Warm up engine to normal operating temperature.
Measure voltage between terminals of HTL1, HTR1 of
engine & ECT ECU connector and body ground, when
engine is idling and racing at 4,000 rpm.
In the 4,000 rpm racing check, continue engine racing
at 4,000rpm for approx. 20 seconds or more.
Replace main oxygen sensor.**: In this case, oxygen sensor can be deteriorated.
Check and replace engine & ECT ECU.
Reference | INSPECTION USING OSCILLOSCOPE
w With the engine racing (4,000 rpm) measure between
terminals OXL1, OXR2 and E1 of engine & ECT ECU.
HINT: The correct waveform appears as shown in the
illustration on the left, oscillating between approx.
0.1 V and 0.9 V
If the oxygen sensor is deteriorated, the amplitude
of the voltage is reduced as shown on the left.
