1Vehicle speed km/h (mph)The vehicle speed sensor is a reed switch type sensor and is
installed in the speedometer. It converts the transmission
speedometer driven gear revolutions (vehicle speed) to
ptsignals and sends them to the engine control unit.
The sensor generates four pulse signals for each rotation of the
speedometer driven gear.
5Therefore, the sensor output frequency increases in proportion
to the vehicle speed as shown at the left.

3Air conditioner
This switch sends the air conditioner ON/OFF signal
to the engine control unit.
When the air conditioner is turned on and the enginecontrol unit receives the ON
signal from the switch,
it commands the idle speed control servo
toincrease the idle speed to the preset rpm. Thus
engine rpm loss due to air conditioner operation
while the engine is idling is prevented and smooth
idling operation is ensured.

6FUO5OtIWhen the steering wheel is turned and the oil
pressure of the power steering oil pump increases,
the power steering oifpressure switch sends an ON
signal to the engine control unit. The engine control
unit detects the oil pump load with this signal andactivates the idle speed control servo to control
theidle speed. Specifically, it prevents the idle
speecfrom dropping due to oil pump load, thus
ensuringstable engine idling.IGNITION

OFF or cranking (ST) is input to the engine control
unit.
When the ignition switch ON signal is input to the
engine control unit, the unit energizes the control
relay coil to supply power to the sensors and
actuators.When the ignition switch ST signal is input to the
engine control unit, it determines that the engine
iscranking and controls the fuel injection rate,
despeed control servo, ignition timing, etc. for
-mum cranking conditions.

This terminal
is used when adjusting the basic ignition timing or
basic idle speed.
When this terminal is shorted to ground, the engine control unit
cancels the
ignition timing control and idle speed control, and
sets the ignition
timing and idle speed control servos in their
adjusting mode.
For the basic idle speed adjustment, the diagnosis terminal is
also shorted to ground.
DETONATION SENSOR
The detonation sensor is installed at a position where it can
detect, with a high degree of precision, knocking generated at
each cylinder; it detects cylinder block vibrations caused by
knocking, and outputs voltage proportional to the magnitude of
those vibrations.
Because cylinder block vibrations caused by knocking vary
from engine to engine, the engine control unit passes this
through a frequncy filter, detecting only the knocking, thus
resulting in a spark retardation of the ignition timing that
corresponds to the strength of the knocking.

INHIBITOR SWITCH The inhibitor switch’s ON (when “N” or
“P”) or OFF (when
other than “N” or
“P”) signals are input to the engine control
unit. The engine control unit, based on these signals, then
determines whether the transaxle is in neutral or is in a drive
range, and then activates the idle-speed control servo so as tc
regulate the idling rpm.

CONTROL RELAY (Fuel pump drive signal)
This relay senses that power is supplied to the pump.
-If power failed to be supplied to the fuel pump during
er,, .ecranking or during driving, the engine control unit judges that a
fault has occurred and stores corresponding diagnosis code
(No. 42) in memory and at the
sa’me time, causes the engine

light)The diagnosis connector is located next to the junction block.
By connecting a voltmeter between the
No.1 and No.12terminals of the diagnosis connector, the meter pointer will
deflect according to the output pattern shown before so that
the diagnosis code can be read.
To clear the diagnosis codes that are stored in the memory,
disconnect the
.battery ground cable for 10 seconds.
When a malfunction is detected in items related to emission
control (items marked
Q in the table), the engine warning light
(Malfunction indicator light) is illuminated to warn the driver of
the necessity for an engine check.
When the malfunction is corrected, the light goes off. The light
also goes off when the ignition switch is turned OFF. At that
time, it will not come on when the ignition switch is turned ON
unless a malfunction is detected again.
However, the light remains on for
E.5 seconds, after the
ignition switch is turned on. This is to allow the driver to check
that the engine warning light circuit is operating normally.
