DIAGNOSTIC CODE CLEARANCE
1. After repair of the trouble areas, the diagnostic code retainedin the ECU memory must be cleared out by removing the EFI
fuse (30A) from R/B No. 2 for 10 seconds or more, with the
ignition switch OFF.
HINT:
wCancellation can also be done by removing the battery
negative (±) terminal, but in this case, other memory
systems (clock, etc.) will also be cancelled out.
w If it is necessary to work on engine components
requiring removal of the battery terminal, a check must
first be made to see if a diagnostic code has been
recorded.
2. After cancellation, road test the vehicle to check that a normal
code is now read on the ºCHECKº engine warning light.
If the same diagnostic code appears, it indicates that the
trouble area has not been repaired thoroughly.

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.

DIAGNOSIS CODE DETECTION DRIVING PATTERN
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 co\
nfirming that diag. codeis no longer detected.
Malfunction: Open or Short in Injector circuit, Injector Leak or Blockage, Loose E/G Earth Bolt.

Initiate test mode (See page TR±12).
Start engine and warm up.
After engine is warmed up, let it idle for 5 min.
(After the engine is started, do not depress the accelerator pedal.)
\bIf the malfunction is not detected during idling, perform racing without a\
ny load at approx.
2,000 rpm for 30 sec.
HINT: If a malfunction exists, the ºCHECKº engine warning light will light up during the 5 min. idling
period or within 30 sec. of starting racing.
NOTICE: If the conditions in this test are not strictly followed, detection of the\
malfunction will not be possible.

Diag. Code 52,53,55Knock Sensor Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Knock sensors are fitted one each to the right bank and left bank of the cylinder block to detect\
engine knocking.
This sensor contains a piezoelectric element which generates a voltage when \
it becomes deformed, which oc-
curs when the cylinder block vibrates due to knocking. If engine knocking occurs, ignition timing is retarded to
suppress it.

Fuel Pressure Control VSV Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The ECU turns on a VSV (Vacuum Switching Valve)
to draw the air into the diaphragm chamber of the
pressure regulator if it detects that the temperature of
the coolant is too high during engine starting.
The air drawn into the chamber increases the fuel
pressure to prevent fuel vapor lock at high engine
temperature in order to help the engine start when it
is warm.
Fuel pressure control ends approx. 100 secs. after
the engine is started.
DIAGNOSTIC CHARTDIAGNOSTIC CHART
Check operation for fuel pressure control
VSV.Replace fuel pressure control VSV.
Repair or replace harness or
connector.
Proceed to next circuit inspection
shown on matrix chart (See page
TR±35).
Check for open and short in harness and
connector between main relay and ECU.
Check voltage of VSV power source.
Check and replace ECU.

ON±VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. INSPECT BATTERY SPECIFIC GRAVITY ANDELECTROLYTE LEVEL
(a) Check the specific gravity of each cell.
Standard specific gravity:
1.27±1.29 when fully charged at 20 5C (68 5F)
If gravity is less than specification, charge the battery.
(b) Check the electrolyte quantity of each cell.
If insufficient, refill with distilled (or purified) water.
HINT: Check the indicator as shown in the illustration.
2. CHECK BATTERY TERMINALS, FUSIBLE LINKS AND FUSES
(a) Check that the battery terminals are not loose orcorroded.
(b) Check the fusible links and fuses for continuity.

AM2 30A
M±fuse: IG SW 40A
Fuse: IGN 7.5A ENGINE 7.5A

3. INSPECT DRIVE BELTHINT: A belt tensioner is used, so checking the belt tension
is not necessary.
(a) Visually check the drive belt for excessive wear, frayedcords, etc.
If necessary, replace the drive belt.
HINT:
w Cracks on rib side of a drive belt are considered
acceptable. If the drive belt has chunks missing from the
ribs, it should be replaced.
w The drive belt tension can be released by turning the
belt tensioner counterclockwise. The pulley bolt for the
belt tensioner has a left±hand thread.
