ENGINE ELECTRICAL -Charging System16-6
This test determines whether the alternator output
current is normal.
(1) Before the test, always be sure to check the
following.
DAlternator installation
DBattery (Refer to GROUP 54 - Battery.)
NOTE
The battery should be slightly discharged.
The load needed by a fully-charged battery
is insufficient for an accurate test.
DAlternator drive belt tension
(Refer to GROUP 11 - On-vehicle Service.)
DFusible link
DAbnormal noise from the alternator while
the engine is running.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” (OFF)
position.
(3) Disconnect the negative battery cable.
(4) Disconnect the alternator output wire from the
alternator “B” terminal. Connect a DC test
ammeter with a range of 0 - 100 A in series
between the “B” terminal and the disconnected
output wire. (Connect the (+) lead of the
ammeter to the “B” terminal. Connect the ( - )
lead of the ammeter to the disconnected output
wire.)
Caution
Never use clips but tighten bolts and nuts
to connect the line. Otherwise loose
connections (e.g. using clips) will lead to
a serious accident because of high current.
NOTE
An inductive-type ammeter which enables
measurements to be taken without
disconnecting the alternator output wire should
be recommended.
(5) Connect a voltmeter with a range of 0 - 20 V
between the alternator “B” terminal and the
earth. (Connect the (+) lead of the voltmeter
to the “B” terminal, and then connect the ( - )
lead of the voltmeter to the earth.)
(6) Connect the negative battery cable.
(7) Connect a tachometer or the MUT-II.
(Refer to GROUP 11 - On-vehicle Service.)
(8) Leave the hood open.
(9) Check that the reading on the voltmeter is equal
to the battery voltage.
NOTE
If the voltage is 0 V, the cause is probably
an open circuit in the wire or fusible link between
the alternator “B” terminal and the battery (+)
terminal.(10)Turn the light switch on to turn on headlamps
and then start the engine.
(11) Immediately after setting the headlamps to high
beam and turning the heater blower switch to
the high revolution position, increase the engine
speed to 2,500 r/min and read the maximum
current output value displayed on the ammeter.
Limit: 70 % of normal current output
NOTE
DFor the nominal current output, refer to the
Alternator Specifications.
DBecause the current from the battery will
soon drop after the engine is started, the
above step should be carried out as quickly
as possible in order to obtain the maximum
current output value.
DThe current output value will depend on
the electrical load and the temperature of
the alternator body.
DIf the electrical load is small while testing,
the specified level of current may not be
output even though the alternator is normal.
In such cases, increase the electrical load
by leaving the headlamps turned on for
some time to discharge the battery or by
using the lighting system in another vehicle,
and then test again.
DThe specified level of current also may not
be output if the temperature of the alternator
body or the ambient temperature is too
high. In such cases, cool the alternator and
then test again.
(12)The reading on the ammeter should be above
the limit value. If the reading is below the limit
value and the alternator output wire is normal,
remove the alternator from the engine and
check the alternator.
(13)Run the engine at idle after the test.
(14)Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK” (OFF)
position.
(15)Remove the tachometer or the MUT-II.
(16)Disconnect the negative battery cable.
(17)Disconnect the ammeter and voltmeter.
(18)Connect the alternator output wire to the
alternator “B” terminal.
(19)Connect the negative battery cable.

ENGINE ELECTRICAL -Ignition System16-26
IGNITION SYSTEM
GENERAL INFORMATION
This system is equipped with two ignition coils (A
and B) with built-in power transistors for the No.
1 and No. 4 cylinders and the No. 2 and No. 3
cylinders respectively.
Interruption of the primary current flowing in the
primary side of ignition coil A generates a high
voltage in the secondary side of ignition coil A.
The high voltage thus generated is applied to the
spark plugs of No. 1 and No. 4 cylinders to generate
sparks. At the time that the sparks are generated
at both spark plugs, if one cylinder is at the
compression stroke, the other cylinder is at the
exhaust stroke, so that ignition of the compressed
air/fuel mixture occurs only for the cylinder which
is at the compression stroke.
In the same way, when the primary current flowing
in ignition coil B is interrupted, the high voltage
thus generated is applied to the spark plugs of
No. 2 and No. 3 cylinders.
The Engine-ECU turns the two power transistors
inside the ignition coils alternately on and off. Thiscauses the primary currents in the ignition coils
to be alternately interrupted and allowed to flow
to fire the cylinders in the order 1-3-4-2.
The Engine-ECU determines which ignition coil
should be controlled by means of the signals from
the camshaft position sensor which is incorporated
in the camshaft and from the crank angle sensor
which is incorporated in the crankshaft. It also
detects the crankshaft position in order to provide
ignition at the most appropriate timing in response
to the engine operation conditions. It also detects
the crankshaft position in order to provide ignition
at the most appropriate timing in response to the
engine operation conditions.
When the engine is cold or operated at high
altitudes, the ignition timing is slightly advanced
to provide optimum performance.
When the automatic transmission shifts gears, the
ignition timing is also retarded in order to reduce
output torque, thereby alleviating shifting shocks.

FORM-IN-PLACE GASKET (FIPG)
FIPG is used for several members of this transmission. With this gasket, caution is required to the application
amount, application procedure and state of the application surface so that the performance is sufficiently
attained.
If sufficient gasket is not applied, leaks could occur, and if too much is applied, the gasket could protrude
and plug or restrict the oil flow passage. Thus, to prevent leaks from the joined sections, it is absolutely
necessary to evenly apply the correct amount.
DISASSEMBLY
The parts assembled with FIPG can be easily disassembled without special means. However, in some
cases, the sealant on the contact surfaces must be broken by lightly tapping with a wood hammer or
similar tool.
Washing the gasket surface
Completely remove all matters adhered on the contact surfaces with a gasket scraper. Confirm that the
FIPG application surface is smooth. There must be no grease or foreign matter on the contact surfaces.
Always remove the old FIPG that has entered the mounting holes and screw holes.
APPLICATION PROCEDURES
Apply an even coat of FIPG within the predetermined radius (1.5±0.3 mm). Completely cover the areas
around the mounting holds. The FIPG can be wiped off if it has not hardened. Install at the set position
while the FIPG is still wet (within 10 minutes). When installing, make sure that the FIPG does not get
on areas other than the required areas. After installing, do not subject the application areas to oil or
water or start operation until the FIPG has sufficiently hardened (approx. one hour).
The FIPG application procedures differ according to the member, so follow the procedures given in this
manual and apply the FIPG.
