FUEL SYSTEM - Troubleshooting13-15READ OUT OF MALFUNCTION CODE
Precautions for Operation
(1) When battery voltage is low, no detection of failure is
possible. Be sure to check the battery for voltage and otherconditions before starting the test.
(2) Diagnosis item is erased if the battery or the engine controlunit connector is disconnected. Do not disconnect the
battery before the diagnosis result is completely read.
Using Multi-Use Tester
(I) Read and record the self-diagnosis output.
(2) Referring to the diagnosis chart, repair the faulty part.
(3) Turn the ignition switch OFF and then turn it ON.
(4) Erase the malfunction code.(5) Recheck that a normal code is output.

r MPI diagnosis
L Ground
EC165(Using Voltmeter(I) Connect an analog voltmeter between the self-diagnosis
output terminal of the diagnosis connector and ground
terminal.(2) Turn on the ignition switch.
(3) Read the diagnosis output pattern from the voltmeter and
record it.(4) Referring to the diagnosis chart, repair the faulty part.
(5) Erase the malfunction code using the following procedure.
@ Turn OFF the ignition switch.
@ Disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery
terminal for
10 seconds or more and then reconnect it.
@ Turn ON the ignition switch and read the self-diagnosiscode to check that a normal code is output.
Diagnosis by DIAGNOSIS 2 MODE
(1) Using the multi-use tester, changeover the diagnosis modeof the engine control unit to DIAGNOSIS 2 MODE.
(2) Road test the vehicle.
(3) Read the diagnosis code in the same manner as “READ
OUT OF MALFUNCTION CODE” and repair the malfunc-
tioning part.(4) Remove the multi-use tester.
NOTERemoval of the multi-use tester

OPERATIONlIf the operator turns the muffler mode changeover switch to ON or OFF position, this is converted to
high/low voltage to be sent to the engine control unit. Receiving this signal, the engine control unit
performs the dual mode (TOUR/SPORT mode) muffler control.
lThe output terminal of the muffler mode changeover switch has battery voltage applied to it from the
engine control unit through the resistor inside the unit. Place the muffler-mode changeover switch to the ‘LJj
ON posrtton, and the muffler mode changeover switch circuit will be closed to short the voltage applied
output terminal to the ground.. Accordingly, the output voltage of the muffler mode changeover switchchanges from high to low.

SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
M13FBCKIACCELERATOR CABLE INSPECTION AND
a ’ADJUSTMENT
For models equipped with the cruise control system, refer to
P. 13-l 58.(1) Turn air conditioner and lights OFF.
Inspect and adjust at no load.
(2) Warm engine until stabilized at idle.
(3) Confirm idle speed is at prescribed rpm.
(4) Stop engine (ignition switch OFF).
(5) Confirm there are no sharp bends in accelerator cable.
(6) Check inner cable for correct slack.
(7) If there is too ‘much slack or no slack, adjust play by the
following procedures.@ Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (without
starting the engine) and leave in that condition for
approximately 15 seconds.@Loosen the adjusting bolts on the air intake plenum, and
then secure the outer cable so that the free play of
th,einner cable will be the standard value.
Standard value:
1 - 2 mm (.04 - .08 in.)3-5 mm
(.12-.20 in.)
NOTE
\JIf there is excessive play of the accelerator cable, the
vehicle speed drop (“undershoot”) when climbing a slope
will be large.
If there is no play (excessive tension) of the accelerator
cable, the idling speed will increase.
(8) After adjusting, confirm that throttle valve fully opens and
closes by operating pedal.
(9) Adjust accelerator cable play and confirm throttle lever
stopper touches the fixed SAS.

A
nADJUSTMENTMlBFlBC
09FO117Make sure that when the accelerator pedal is free, there is
;$ustingcontinuity between the terminals of the accelerator switch and
/that when the pedal is pressed until the indicated pedal stroke
A reaches the standard value, there is no continuity between
the terminals of the switch.
Standard value:Accelerator switch switching point
2 - 6 mm (.079 - .24 in.)If stroke A is out of specification, adjust with adjusting bolt.

DESCRIPTION OF OPERATIONOn a vehicle with cruise control, the OD switch ON signal is input through the cruise control unit to the
ELC-4AIT control unit.
When the vehicle speed control is in the overdrive mode, if the actual vehicle speed falls more than about 7
km/h (4 mph) below the set vehicle speed, the cruise control unit forces transistor
Tr, into the OFF state. This
cancels the overdrive mode because no OD switch ON signal is input to the
ELC-4PJT control unit.

NOTE
1. When two or more problems occur simultaneously, the
three latest code numbers are displayed in the order of
lowest code number first.
2. Even if the problem represented by the code number
marked * occurs during cruise control operation, the cruise
control mode will not be canceled.
3.When the system is normal, the diagnosis code is displayed
as described below.@ If a multi-use tester is used:
“NORMAL!
! I’ will be displayed.@ If a voltmeter is used:
Continuous ON/OFF signals will be displayed at 0.5
second intervals. (Refer to the illustration at the left.)
INPUT CHECKINGInput checks should be made when the cruise control system
cannot be set and when it is necessary to check (when a
malfunction related to the cruise control system occurs)
whether or not the input signals are normal.
NOTE
1.If inspection of self-diagnosis is necessary, confirm diagno-
sis code first and conduct input check.
2. Input check can be conducted by set operations.
Self-diagnosis terminal outputs display patterns.
3. Display codes are displayed only if the circuit is normal
according to the conditions shown in the table on the next
paw.Perform checks using the following procedures.
(1) Connect a multi-use tester or a voltmeter to the diagnosis
inspection connector of the junction block.
NOTEConnect a voltmeter using the same procedure as for
inspection of diagnosis output.

CRUISE CONTROL SETTING CHECK(1) Switch ON the main switch.
(2) Drive at the desired speed within the range of approximate-
ly 40
- 145 km/h (25 - 90 mph).
(3) Operate the control switch downward. (SET switch: ON)
(4) Check to be sure that the speed is the desired constant
speed when the switch is released, and also check to be
sure that the CRUISE indicator light (within the combination
meter) illuminates.
NOTEIf the vehicle speed decreases to approximately 15 km/h (9
mph) below the set speed, because of climbing a hill for
example, the cruise control will be cancelled.
SPEED-INCREASE SETTING CHECK(1) Set to the desired speed.
(2) Operate the control switch upward. (RESUME switch: ON)
(3) Check to be sure that acceleration continues while the
switch is hold, and that when it is released the constant.
speed at the time when it was released becomes the
driving speed.
NOTEEven if, during acceleration, the vehicle speed reaches or
exceeds the high limit [approximately 145 km/h (90 mph)],
acceleration will continue, however, when the switch is
released, the set speed (“memorized speed”) will become
the high limit of the vehicle speed.
SPEED REDUCTION SETTING CHECK(1) Set to the desired speed.
(2) Operate the control switch downward. (SET switch: ON)
(3) Check to be sure that deceleration continues while the
switch is held, and that when it is released the constant
speed at the time when it was released becomes the
driving speed.
NOTEWhen the vehicle speed reaches the low limit [approx-
imately 40 km/h (25 mph)] during deceleration, the cruise
control will be cancelled.
CRUISE CONTROL CANCELLATION AND SET SPEED RE-
SUME CHECK(1) Set cruise control.
(2) In the cruising condition of the cruise control mode, check
that when any of the following operations are performed,
the normal drive mode is restored and
,the vehicle coasts
smoothly.@ Move the control switch toward you. (CANCEL switch:@ Depress the brake pedal.@ Depress the clutch pedal.
@ Place the gear selector lever in the N range.
