4. PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
ItemsSymptom
StartingWon’t startThe starter is used to crank the engine, but there is no combustion within the
cylinders, and the engine won’t start.
Fires up and diesThere is combustion within the cylinders, but then the engine soon stalls.
Hard startingEngine starts after cranking a while.
Idling
stabilityRough idle
HuntingEngine speed doesn’t remain constant and changes at idle.
Usually, a judgement can be based upon the movement of the tachometer
pointer, and the vibration transmitted to the steering wheel, shift lever, body, etc.
This is called rough idle or hunting.
Incorrect idle speedThe engine doesn’t idle at the usual correct speed.
Engine stall
(Die out)The engine stalls when the accelerator pedal is released, regardless of whether
the vehicles is moving or not.
Engine stall
(Pass out)The engine stalls when the accelerator pedal is depressed or while it is being
used.
DrivingHesitation, Sag“Hesitation” is the delay in response of the vehicle speed (engine speed) that
occurs when the accelerator is depressed in order to accelerate from the speed
at which the vehicle is now traveling, or a temporary drop in vehicle speed
(engine speed) during such acceleration. Serious hesitation is called “sag”.
(Refer to Figure 1.)
Poor accelerationPoor acceleration is inability to obtain an acceleration corresponding to the
degree of throttle opening, even though acceleration is smooth, or the inability
to reach maximum speed.
StumbleEngine speed increase is delayed when the accelerator pedal is initially
depressed for acceleration. (Refer to Figure 2.)
ShockThe feeling of a comparatively large impact or vibration when the engine is
accelerated or decelerated.
SurgeThis is repeated forward or rearward surging during constant speed travel or
during variable speed travel.
KnockingA sharp sound like a hammer striking the cylinder walls during driving and which
adversely affects driving.
StoppingRun on
(“Dieseling”)The condition in which the engine continues to run after the ignition switch is
turned to OFF. Also called “Dieseling”.

Code No. 33: Steer sensor (ST-N) systemProbable cause
This code is output when the steering wheel is turned 400 or more in the same
direction with ST-N OFF (HIGH voltage).

Code No. 34: Steer sensor (ST-1, ST-2) systemProbable cause
This code is output if a turning condition is detected for a cumulative period of time
of 15 min. or more, during which there is no change in the steer sensor (ST-1, ST-2)
signals with the wheel speed 15 km/h or more.

ABS – Troubleshooting35B-2
The EVOLUTION-V is provided with a lateral acceleration sensor in addition to the longitudinal acceleration
sensor, and the ABS-ECU connector is changed in terminal arrangement. When servicing EVOLUTION-V,
therefore, use the following service procedures.

cedure No.Reference page
When the ignition key is turned to “ON” (engine stopped), the ABS warning lamp
does not illuminate.135B-12
Even after the engine is started, the ABS warning lamp remains illuminated.235B-13
After the ignition key is turned to “ON”, the ABS warning lamp blinks twice, and
when turned to “START”, it illuminates. When returned to “ON”, the lamp
flashes once, and then switches off.335B-13
When the ignition key is turned to “START”, the ABS warning lamp does not
illuminate.435B-14
Brake operation is abnormal535B-14
Caution
(1) If steering movements are made when driving at high speed, or when driving on road surfaces
with low frictional resistance, or when passing over bumps, the ABS may operate even though
sudden braking is not being applied. Because of this, when getting information from the customer,
check if the problem occurred while driving under such conditions as these.
(2) During ABS operation, the brake pedal may vibrate or may not be able to be depressed. Such
phenomena are due to intermittent changes in hydraulic pressure inside the brake line to prevent
the wheels from locking and is not an abnormality.
