TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURE
Note
Step 1 under symptom is to quickly determine what system or unit may be at fault by use of the SST. (Self-Diagnosis Checker 49 H018 9A1)
1st:
Check input sensors and output solenoid valves with the
SST.
(Refer
to
page 4B—10.)

2nd:
Check other switches with the
SST.
(Refer
to
page 4B—26.)

3rd:
Check the following items:

11
Poor acceleration, hesita-
tion or lack of power
Runs rough on deceleration
Afterburn in exhaust system
Poor fuel consumption
Engine stalls or rough after hot starting
Electrical system
1) Battery condition
2) Fuses

Fuel system
1) Fuel level 2) Fuel leakage
3) Fuel filter 4) Idle speed

Engine
1) Compression 2) Overheating

Ignition system

1) Ignition spark 2) Ignition timing

Intake air system
1)
Air
cleaner element 2) Vacuum
or air
leakage 3) Vacuum hose routing
4) Accelerator cable

Others
1) Clutch slippage 2) Brake dragging

Fails emission test 4th:
Check Fuel and Emission Control Systems. (Refer
to
page 4B—8.)

4B TROUBLESHOOTING WITH SST
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1. Connect the SST to the check connector, (Green,
6-pin) and the negative battery terminal.
2. Set the select switch to position A.
Note
The check connector is located at the rear of
the left side wheel housing.
86U04A-011
Test connector: Green (1 pin)
3. Ground the test connector (Green, 1-pin) with a
jumper wire.

4. Turn the ignition switch ON.
5. Verify that 88 flashes on the digital display and that
the buzzer sounds for three seconds after turn-
ing the ignition switch ON.
6. If 88 does not flash, check the main relay (Refer
to page 4B—86), power supply circuit, and check
connector wiring.
7. If 88 flashes and the buzzer sounds continuously
for more than 20 seconds, replace the engine con-
trol unit and perform steps 3 and 4 again.
8. Note the code numbers and check for the causes
by referring to the check sequences shown on
pages from 4B—14 to 4B—24. Repair as
necessary.
Note
Cancel the code numbers by performing the
after-repair procedure after repairing.
AFTER-REPAIR PROCEDURE
1. Cancel the memory of malfunctions by disconnect-
ing the negative battery cable and depressing the
brake pedal for at least 2 seconds; then recon-
nect the negative battery cable.

2. Connect the SST to the check connector.
3. Ground the test connector (Green, 1-pin) with a
jumper wire.

Ignition switch:
ON

for six
seconds
4. Turn the ignition switch ON, but do not start the
engine for six seconds.
5. Start and warm up the engine, then run it at
2,500—3,000 rpm for three minutes in neutral.
6. Verify that no code numbers are displayed.

Note
The Digital Code Checker (49 G018 9A0) with
the Signal Adapter (49 9200 180) may be used
in place of the Self-Diagnosis Checker (49
H018 9A1).

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1. Warm up the engine to normal operating temper-
ature and stop it.
2. Connect the SST to the check connector (Green,
6-pin) and the negative battery terminal.
86U04A-034
76G04B-023
3. Connect a jumper wire between the test connec-
tor (Green, 1-pin) and a ground.
4. Turn the ignition switch ON. Check if monitor lamp
illuminates when each switch is made to function
as described below.
Caution
a) If any one of the switches is activated, the
monitor lamp will stay on.
b) Do not start the engine.
Note
The Digital Code Checker (49 G018 9A0) with
the Signal Adapter (49 9200180) may be used
in place of the Self-Diagnosis Checker.

ADJUSTMENT
IDLE SPEED
Preparation
1) Check the condition of the engine (plugs, leaks in
hoses, etc.).
2) Make sure all accessories are OFF.
3) Warm up the engine and run it for three minutes
at 2,500—3,000 rpm in neutral.
4) Check the initial ignition timing and adjust if
necessary.
Inspection and Adjustment
Caution
Disconnect the air bypass solenoid connec-
tor when checking and adjusting the idle
speed.
1. Check that the idle speed is within specification.
Specification:
MTX—800 +58 rpm
ATX—900 +58 rpm (P range)
2. If the idle speed is not within specification, remove
the blind cap from the throttle body and adjust it
by turning the air adjust screw.
IDLE MIXTURE
Because an automatic compensation function
for air/fuel mixture is built into the engine con-
trol unit, it is not necessary to check and adjust
the idle mixture.

1. Check that the throttle valve moves smoothly when
the throttle lever is moved from fully closed to fully
open.
2. Warm up the engine and run at idle.
3. Check the vacuum generated at each port as
shown in the following table.

~ —Condition
Port (Connected to) ——____ Idle Other
A (solenoid valve, EGR) No Yes
B (distributor, advance) No Yes
C (EGR modulator valve) No Yes
D (water thermo valve) No Yes
E (vacuum switch valve
&
charcoal canister) Yes
F (distributor, retard
& air
control valve) Yes
G (distributor, advance) Yes

4. If vacuum is not obtained as in the table, clean the
necessary port.
Dynamic Chamber
1. Visually check the dynamic chamber for damage.
2. Replace, if necessary.
Intake Manifold
1. Visually check the intake manifold for damage.
2. Replace, if necessary.
