MAGNETIC SWITCH RETURN TEST(1) Disconnect field coil wire from M-terminal of magnetic
switch.(2) Connect a 12 V battery between M-terminal and body.
Caution
This test must be performed quickly (in less than 10
seconds) to prevent coil from burning.(3) Pull pinion out and release. If pinion quickly returns to
its original position, everything is in order. If it doesn’t,
replace magnetic switch.
Caution
When pulling out the pinion, be careful not to have
your finger pinched.
STARTER RELAY(1) Remove the starter relay from the relay box.
(2)Connect battery to terminal 2 and check continuity between
terminals with terminal 4 grounded.

(1) Disconnect, one at a time, each of the spark plug cables
while the engine is idling to check whether the engine’s
running performance changes or not.
Caution
Wear rubber gloves while doing so.(2) If the engine performance does not change, check the
resistance of the spark plug cable, and check the spark
plug itself.SPARK PLUG TEST
(1) Remove the spark plug and connect to the spark plug
cable.
(2) Ground the spark plug outer electrode (body), and crank
the engine.Check to be sure that there is an electrical discharge
between the electrodes at this time.

BAlTERY VISUAL CHECK (1)
The battery contains a visual test indicator which gives blue
signal when an adequate charge level exists, and white signal
when charging is required.
BAlTERY VISUAL CHECK (2)
Make sure ignition switch is in Off position and all battery
feed accessories are Off.
1.Disconnect ground cable from battery before disconnecting
(+) cable.
2. Remove battery from vehicle.
CautionCare should be taken in the event battery case is
cracked or leaking to protect hands from the electro-
lyte. A suitable pair of rubber gloves (not the house-hold type) should be worn when removing battery
by hand.
3.Inspect battery carrier for damage caused by loss of acid
from battery. If acid damage is present, it will be necessaryto clean area with a solution of clean warm water and
baking soda. Scrub area with a stiff bristle brush and wipe
off with a cloth moistened with ammonia or baking soda
in water.

OPERATION
l
When the ignition key is at the “ON” position,the fuel gauge is activated.
l
When there is much fuel, the unit’s resistanceis small and the current flowing in the circuit
is great, so the gauge’s indicator indicates inthe “F” area.
l When there is little fuel, the unit’s resistance
is high and the current flowing in the circuit
is small, so the gauge’s indicator indicates inthe
“E” area.

lWhen the ignition key is at the “ON” position,
the engine coolant temperature gauge is acti-
vated.l
When the engine coolant temperature is high,
the unit’s resistance is low and there is a greatflow of current in the circuit, so the gauge’s
indicator indicates in the “H” area.
l
When the engine coolant temperature is low,
the unit’s resistance is high and there is a smallflow of current in the circuit, so the gauge’s
indicator indicates in the “C” area.
/Speed sensor (electrical speedometer type)>l Pulses are produced in accordance with the
vehicle speed, and vehicle-speed signals areinput to systems (the MFI system, etc.) that
regulate according to the vehicle speed.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
1.The fuel gauge doesn’t function, or shows the
incorrect indication.
(1) Disconnect the connector of the fuel pumpand gauge unit assembly; the ‘F” side is
indicated when terminal (5) is then
grounded.l Check the fuel gauge.
2.The engine coolant temperature gauge doesn’t
function, or shows the incorrect indication.
(1)The “l-l” side is indicated when the connector
of the engine coolant temperature gauge
unit is disconnected and then grounded.l
Check the engine coolant temperature
gauge unit.
3. Systems dependent upon control according to
the vehicle speed do not function correctly.l Check the reed switch (mechanical
speedometer type)l Check the speed sensor (electrical
speedometer type)
coil pressure gauge>l
When the ignition key is at the “ON” position,
the oil pressure gauge is activated.
lWhen oil pressure is high, the internal contacts
of the gauge unit are kept closed for a longerperiod of time. This causes more current to
flow in the circuit, and the gauge pointer swings
to the high pressure side.
lWhen oil pressure is low, the internal contactsof the gauge unit open in a shorter period of
time. Therefore, there is less current flowing
in the circuit and the gauge pointer swings to
the low pressure side.

lWhen the ignition key is set to the “ON” position,the gauge indicator will be at
“0”.l
When the engine is started, the indicator will
move from
“0” to the minus (-) side, and then,as the boost level increases, it will move to
the plus
(+) side.
l When the ignition key is placed in the “ON”
position, the voltage gauge operates and indi-
cates a battery voltage of approximately 12 V.l
When the engine is started, the voltage gauge
indicates a battery voltage of 12 to 16 V, indicat-ing that the battery is on charge.
4. The oil pressure gauge doesn’t function, or
shows the incorrect indication.
(1)The “H” side is indicated when the connectorof the oil pressure gauge unit is discon-
nected and then grounded.l Check the oil pressure gauge unit.
5.The meter illumination light does not illuminate.
(1) The tail lights illuminate.l Check the rheostat.
6. The voltage gauge doesn’t function, or shows
the incorrect indication.l Check the voltage gauge.

When using the scan tool (MUT) or voltmeter‘d
Using the scan tool or voltmeter, check whether or not the
input signals from each switch are being input to the ETACS
unit.
54-56CHASSIS ELECTRICAL - Lighting System
(1) Connect the scan tool to the data link connector located
at the right side of the junction block or connect the voltme-
ter between the ETACS terminal and the ground terminal.
(2) Check if the buzzer of the scan tool sounds or the needle
of the voltmeter moves when each switch is operated.
If the buzzer sounds or the needle moves, the input signalsare being input to the ETACS unit, so that switch can
be considered to be functioning normally. If not, the switch
or switch input circuit is faulty. Check the switch and the
switch input circuit.

When using the scan tool (MUT-II)
(1) Connect the scan tool to the data link connector. When
connecting the scan tool to a vehicle up to 1993 models,
use the adapter harness supplied together.‘dCaution
Turn off the ignition switch beforehand whenever the
scan tool is connected or disconnected.
(2) If the scan tool makes a peep sound when each switchis operated (turned ON/OFF), the input signal to ECU
is normally sent from the switch circuit system.

When using the voltmeter
(1)Connect a voltmeter to the ETACS terminal and the ground
terminal of the data link connector using the special tool.
(2) If the voltmeter pointer deflects once when each switchis operated (turned ON/OFF), the input signal to ECU
is normally sent from the switch circuit system.
