INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
wIf diag. code 41 is displayed, check throttle position sensor circuit. If \
diag. code 47 is displayed, check
sub±throttle position sensor circuit.
w If diag. codes º22º (water temperature sensor circuit), º24º\
(intake air temperature sensor circuit) and º41º
(throttle position sensor circuit) are output simultaneously, E2 (sensor ground) may be open.
#Check voltage between terminals VTA1, 2, IDL1, 2 and E2 of engine & ECT ECU connector.

OK
Hint
P(2) Connect the Check Harness A.
(See page TR±30).
(2) Turn ignition switch on.
(2) For sub±throttle position sensor, remove intake air duct and disconnect sub±throttle valve step motor
connector.
Measure voltage between terminals VTA1, 2, IDL1, 2
and E2 of engine & ECT ECU connector when the
(sub±) throttle valve is opened gradually from the closed
condition.
The voltage should increase steadily in proportion to the
throttle valve opening angle.
Check for Momentary interruption
(See page TR±23).

Diag. Code 51Switch Condition Signal Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Neutral Start Switch Signal
The ECU uses the signals from the neutral start switch to determine whether\
the transmission is in park or neu-
tral, or in some other gear.
Air Conditioner Switch Signal
The ECU uses the output from the air conditioner switch to determine whethe\
r or not the air conditioner is operat-
ing so that it can increase the idling speed of the engine if necessary.
Throttle Position Sensor IDL Signal
The IDL contacts are mounted in the throttle position sensor, and detects the idle condition.

Diagnosis Inspection (Test Mode)
Compared to the normal mode, the test mode has high sensing
ability to detect malfunctions.
It can also detect malfunctions in the starter signal circuit, the IDL
contact signal of the throttle position sensor, air conditioner signal
and neutral start switch signal.
Furthermore, the same diagnostic items which are detected in the
normal mode can also be detected in the test mode.
DIAGNOSTIC CODE CHECK
1. Initial conditions.(a) Battery voltage 11 V or more.
(b) Throttle valve fully closed (throttle position sensor IDLpoints closed).
(c) Transmission in neutral position.
(d) Air conditioner switched off.
2. Turn ignition switch off.
3. Using SST, connect terminals TE2 and E1 of TDCL. SST 09843±18020
4. Turn ignition switch on. HINT:
wTo confirm that the test mode is operating, check that the
ºCHECKº engine warning light flashes when the ignition
switch is turned to ON.
w If the ºCHECKº engine warning light does not flash,
proceed to tro ubleshooting of the TE2 terminal circuit on
page TR±146 .
5. Start the engine.
6. Simulate the conditions of the malfunction described by the customer.
7. After the road test, using SST, connect terminals TE1 and E1
of TDCL or check connector.
SST 09843±18020
8. Read the diagnostic code on ºCHECKº engine warning light on the combination meter (See page TR±11).
9. After completing the check, disconnect terminals TE1, TE2 and E1, and turn off the display.
HINT:
wThe test mode will not start if terminals TE2 and E1 are
connected after the ignition switch is turned on.
w When the engine is not cranked, diag. codes º43º
(Starter signal) output, but this is not abnormal.
w When the automatic transmission shift lever is in the ºDº,
º2º, ºLº or ºRº shift position, or when the air conditioner
is on or when the accelerator pedal is depressed, code
º51º (Switch condition signal) is output, but this is not
abnormal.

*4: This indicates items for which º2 trip detection logicº is used. With this logic, when a lo\
gic malfunction is
first detected, the malfunction is temporarily stored in the ECU memory. If the same case is detected again
during the second drive test, this second detection causes the ºCHECK\
º Engine Warning Light to light up.
The 2 trip repeats the same mode a 2nd time. (However, the IG switch must be turned OFF between the
1st trip and 2nd trip).
In the Test Mode, the ºCHECKº Engine Warning Light lights up the 1st trip a malfunction is detected.
