HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING
The Engine Control System broadly consists of the sensors, ECU and actuator\
s. The ECU receives signals from
various sensors, judges the operating conditions and determines the opti\
mum injection duration, timing, ignition
timing and idle speed.
In general, the Engine Control System is considered to be a very intricate\
system to troubleshoot. But, the fact
is that if you proceed to inspect the circuit one by one following the p\
rocedures directed in this manual, trouble-
shooting of this system is not complex.
This section explains the most ideal method of troubleshooting and tells how\
to carry out the necessary repairs.
[1] CUSTOMER PROBLEM ANALYSISUsing the customer problem analysis check sheet for reference, ask the c\
ustomer in as much details as
possible about the problem.
[2] CHECK AND CLEAR DIAGNOSTIC CODE (PRECHECK) Before confirming the problem symptom, first check the diagnostic code and mak\
e a note of any malfunc-
tion code which is output, then clear the code.
HINT: Output of the malfunction code indicates that there is a malfunction in\
the circuit indicated. However,
it does not indicate whether the malfunction is still occurring or occur\
red in the past and returned to normal.
In order to determine this, the problem symptoms should be confirmed in 4 \
first and the diagnostic code
be rechecked in [6].
Accordingly, if troubleshooting is begun based on the malfunction code only in diag\
nostic code check in
[2] , it could result in a misdiagnosis, leading to troubleshooting of circuits which are normal \
and making
it more difficult to locate the cause of the problem.
[3] SETTING THE TEST MODE DIAGNOSIS, [4] PROBLEM SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION, [5] SYMPTOM SIMULATION
In order to find out the trouble more quickly, set the diagnosis check in test mode and with higher sensing
ability of the ECU, confirm the problem symptoms. If the trouble does not reappear, use the symptom simu-
lation method to make sure the trouble is reproduced.
[6] DIAGNOSTIC CODE CHECK IN TEST MODE Check the diagnostic code in test mode. If the malfunction code is output, pr\
oceed to ºstep [8] Diagnostic
Code Chartº. If the normal code is output, proceed to ºstep [7] Basic Inspectionº.
[7] BASIC INSPECTION Carry out basic inspection such as the spark check and fuel pressure che\
ck, etc.
[8] DIAGNOSTIC CODE CHART If the malfunction code is displayed, proceed to inspect the circuit ind\
icated by the chart for each code.
[9] MATRIX CHART OF PROBLEM SYMPTOMS If the normal code is displayed in the diagnosis in test mode, perform tro\
ubleshooting according to the in-
spection order in the Matrix Chart of Problem Symptoms.
[10] PARTS INSPECTION When the Matrix Chart of Problem Symptoms instructs to check the parts, proc\
eed to parts inspection sec-
tion included in this manual.
[11] CIRCUIT INSPECTION Determine if the malfunction is the sensor, actuator, wire harness, connector or the ECU.

[7] [9] CIRCUIT INSPECTION BY CHECKER If the Normal code is displayed in the diagnostic code check, connect the \
checker to the vehicle and check
all the circuits which can be inspected using the checker.
If a malfunctioning circuit is then detected, proceed to ºCircuit Ins\
pection by Volt/Ohm Meterº and check
the applicable circuit using a volt/ohm meter. Determine if the malfunction is in the sensor, actuator, wire
harness, connector or the ECU. If the malfunctioning circuit cannot be detected u\
sing the checker, proceed
to ºBasic Inspectionº and perform troubleshooting.
If a malfunction code is displayed in the diagnostic code check, use the c\
hecker to inspect the circuit indi-
cated by the diagnostic code chart for the displayed code.
For instructions on how to connect the checker to the vehicle and how to us\
e the checker, please refer to
the Instruction Manual for TCCS checker.

DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
The ECU contains a built±in self±diagnosis system by which
troubles with the engine signal network are detected and a
ºCHECKº engine warning light on the instrument panel lights up.
By analyzing various signals as shown in the later table (See page
TR±14) the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) detects system malfunc-
tions relating to the sensors or actuators.
In the normal mode, the self±diagnosis system monitors 22 (USA
specification vehicles with TRAC control) or 21 (USA (except for
California) and Canadian specification vehicles with TRAC con-
trol) items, indicated by code No. as shown in TR±14. A ºCHECKº
engine warning light informs the driver that a malfunction has been
detected. The light goes off automatically when the malfunction
has been repaired. But the diagnostic code(s) remains stored in
the ECU memory (except for code Nos. 16 and 53). The ECU
stores the code(s) until it is cleared by removing the EFI fuse with
the ignition switch off.
The diagnostic code can be read by the number of blinks of the
ºCHECKº engine warning light when TE1 and E1 terminals on the
TDCL or check connector are connected. When 2 or more codes
are indicated, the lowest number (code) will appear first.
In the test mode, 15 (USA specification vehicles with TRAC con-
trol) or 14 (USA (except for California) and Canadian specification
vehicles with TRAC control) items, indicated by code No. as
shown in TR±14 are monitored. If a malfunction is detected in any
one of the systems indicated by code Nos. 13, 21, 22, 24, 25, 26,
27, 28, 29, 35, 41, 42, 47, 71 and 78 (USA specification vehicles)
or 13, 21, 22, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 35, 41, 42, 47 and 78 (USA
(except for California) and Canadian specification vehicles) the
ECU lights the ºCHECKº engine warning light to warn the techni-
cian that malfunction has been detected. In this case, TE2 and E1
terminals on the TDCL should be connected as shown later. (See
page TR±12 ).
In the test mode, even if the malfunction is corrected, the malfunc-
tion code is stored in the ECU memory even when the ignition
switch is off (except code Nos. 43 and 51). This also applies in the
normal mode. The diagnostic mode (normal or test) and the output
of the ºCHECKº engine warning light can be selected by connect-
ing the TE1, TE2 and E1 terminals on the check connector or
TDCL, as shown later.
A test mode function has been added to the functions of the self±
diagnosis system of the normal mode for the purpose of detecting
malfunctions such as poor contact, which are difficult to detect in
the normal mode. This function fills up the selfdiagnosis system.
The test mode can be implemented by the technician following the
appropriate procedures of check terminal connection and opera-
tion described later. (See page TR±12)
