During diagnosis, a DTC code associated with
other system may be set when the ignition
switch is turned on with connector(s) discon-
nected. On completion, confirm all systems
for DTC code(s). If DTC code(s) are set, erase
them all.
When the DIAGNOSTIC TOOL (MUT-III)
detects a diagnostic trouble code, its display
informs users whether a mechanical problem
currently exists (“current trouble”) or whether
it existed before but normal operation has
been restored (“past trouble”). However, if an
MPI, TPMS or SRS airbag-related DTC is set,
“Active DTC/Stored DTC” is not displayed. In
this case, follow the diagnosis procedure for
current trouble.
If a trouble, detected in a CAN communica-
tion-capable system, can be reproduced,
diagnose the CAN bus lines (Refer to GROUP
54C, Can Bus Line Diagnostics Chart
P.54C-15 or P.54C-15).
Troubleshooting of electronic control systems for
which the MUT -III can be used follows the basic out-
line described below. Even in systems for which the
MUT-III cannot be used, part of these systems still
follow this outline.
1. STANDARD FLOW OF DIAGNOSTIC
TROUBLESHOOTING
Troubleshooting strategy is shown in each group.
2. SYSTEM OPERATION AND SYMPTOM
VERIFICATION TESTS
If verification of the symptom(s) is difficult, proce-
dures for checking operation and verifying symptoms
are shown.
3. DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION
The following trouble code diagnoses are shown.

4. DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART
If the MUT-III displays a diagnostic trouble code, find
the applicable inspection procedure according to this
chart.
5. SYMPTOM CHART
If there are symptoms, even though the MUT-III
shows that no DTCs are set, inspection procedures
for each symptom will be found by using this chart.
6. DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE
PROCEDURES
Indicates the inspection procedures corresponding to
each diagnostic trouble code. (Refer to P.00-9).
7. SYMPTOM PROCEDURES
Indicates the inspection procedures corresponding to
each symptom listed in the Symptom Chart (Refer to
P.00-9).
8. SERVICE DATA REFERENCE TABLE
Inspection items and normal judgment values have
been provided in this chart as reference information.
9. CHECK AT ECU TERMINALS
Terminal numbers for the ECU connectors, inspec-
tion items, and standard values have been provided
in this chart as reference information.
.
TERMINAL VOLTAGE CHECKS
1. Use correct tool to check each pin location on the
ENGINE-ECU Check harnes MB992044 and
measure with voltmeter.
Short-circuiting the positive (+) test probe
between a connector terminal and ground could
damage the vehicle wiring, the sensor, the ECU,
or all three. Use care to prevent this!
2. Insert the correct terminal tool into each of the
ENGINE-ECU check harness connector
terminals, and measure the voltage while referring
to the check chart.
NOTE: Measure voltage with the ECU connectors
connected.
You may find it convenient to pull out the ECU to
make it easier to connect the ENGINE-ECU check
harness.

GENERAL00-8
Checks don't have to be carried out in the order
given in the chart.
3. If voltage readings differ from normal condition
values, check related sensors, actuators, and
wiring. Replace or repair as needed.
4. After repair or replacement, recheck with the
voltmeter to confirm that the repair has corrected
the problem.
.
TERMINAL RESISTANCE AND
CONTINUITY CHECKS
1. Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” (OFF)
position.
2. Disconnect the ECU connector.
If resistance and continuity checks are per-
formed on the wrong terminals, damage to the
vehicle wiring, sensors, ECU, and/or ohmmeter
may occur. Use care to prevent this!
3. Measure the resistance and check for continuity
between the terminals of the ENGIN-ECU check
harness MB992044 connector while referring to
the check chart.
NOTE: Checks don't have to be carried out in the
order given in the chart.
4. If the ohmmeter shows any deviation from the
Normal Condition value, check the corresponding
sensor, actuator and related electrical wiring, then
repair or replace.
5. After repair or replacement, recheck with the
ohmmeter to confirm that the repair has corrected
the problem.
10. INSPECTION PROCEDURES USING
AN OSCILLOSCOPE
When there are inspection procedures using an
oscilloscope, these are listed.

4. VERIFY THE INTERMITTENT MALFUNCTION IS
ELIMINATED
Repair the malfunctioning part and try to duplicate the condi-
tion(s) again to verify the intermittent malfunction has been
eliminated.
.
SIMULATION TESTS
NOTE: In case of difficulty in finding the cause of the intermit-
tent malfunction, the data recorder function in the
DIAGNOSTIC TOOL (MUT-III) is effective.
For these simulation tests, shake, then gently bend, pull, and
twist the wiring of each of these examples to duplicate the inter-
mittent malfunction.
Shake the connector up-and-down, and right-and-left.
Shake the wiring harness up-and-down, and right-and-left.
Especially, check the splice points of wiring harnesses care-
fully. Refer to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection
P.00E-2.
Shake the part or sensor.

ENGINE MODEL STAMPING
The engine model is stamped on the cylinder block.
The engine model number is as shown as follow.
The engine serial number is stamped near the engine model
number.
PRECAUTIONS BEFORE SERVICE
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)M1001011600056
1. Items to review when servicing SRS:
(1) Be sure to read GROUP 52B, Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS). For safe operation,
please follow the directions and heed all
warnings.
(2) Wait at least 60 seconds after disconnecting
the battery cable before doing any further
work. The SRS system is designed to retain
enough voltage to deploy the air bag even
after the battery has been disconnected.
Serious injury may result from unintended air
bag deployment if work is done on the SRS
system immediately after the battery cable is
disconnected.
(3) Warning labels must be heeded when
servicing or handling SRS components.
Warning labels can be found in the following
locations.
Front impact sensor
Hood
Sun visor
Instrument panel (passenger ’s side)
SRS-ECU
Steering wheel
Clock spring
Air bag module (Driver's or front
passenger's)
Side-airbag module (Driver's side or front
passenger's side)
Side impact sensor
Seat belt pre-tensioner
(4) Always use the designated special tools and
test equipment.(5) Store components removed from the SRS in a
clean and dry place. The air bag module
should be stored on a flat surface and placed
so that the pad surface is facing upward.
(6) Never attempt to disassemble or repair the
SRS components (SRS-ECU, air bag module
and clock spring). If there is a defect, replace
the defective part.
(7) Whenever you finish servicing the SRS, check
the SRS warning light operation to make sure
that the system functions properly.
(8) Be sure to deploy the air bag before disposing
of the air bag module or disposing of a vehicle
equipped with an air bag (Refer to GROUP
52B, Air Bag Module Disposal Procedures
P.52B-254).
2. Observe the following when carrying out
operations on places where SRS components are
installed, including operations not directly related
to the SRS air bag.
(1) When removing or installing parts, do not allow
any impact or shock to occur to the SRS
components.
(2) If heat damage may occur during paint work,
remove the SRS-ECU, the air bag module,
clock spring, the front impact sensor, the side
impact sensor, and the seat belt pre-tensioner.
