NOTE: Whenever transmission or drivetrain service is performed
that affects the suspension alignment, for example,
removing the engine cradle, it is required that the
alignment be checked and corrected if necessary.

HO2S detects oxygen content in exhaust gas and sends this
information to PCM. PCM uses input signals from HO2S to vary duration
of fuel injection. HO2S heater stabilizes sensor temperature
regardless of exhaust gas temperature to allow for more accurate
exhaust oxygen content readings.
Idle Air Control (IAC) Valve Position Sensor
Sensor is incorporated in IAC motor. Sensor senses IAC motor
plunger position and sends electrical signal to PCM.
Ignition Timing Adjustment Terminal
Used for adjusting base ignition timing. When terminal is
grounded, PCM timing control function is by-passed, allowing base
timing to be adjusted.
Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor
IAT sensor is incorporated into airflow sensor assembly. This
resistor-based sensor measures temperature of incoming air and
supplies air density information to PCM.
Knock Sensor (KS)
KS is located in cylinder block and senses engine vibration
during detonation (knock). KS converts vibration into electrical
signal. PCM retards ignition timing based on this signal.
Manifold Differential Pressure (MDP) Sensor
MDP sensor converts negative air pressure in intake manifold
plenum into voltage signals sent to PCM. PCM monitors Exhaust Gas
Recirculation (EGR) system using these signals.
Park/Neutral Position (PNP) Switch (Automatic Transmission)
PNP switch senses position of transmission select lever,
indicating engine load due to automatic transmission engagement. Based
on this signal, PCM commands IAC motor to increase throttle angle,
maintaining optimum idle speed.
Power Steering Oil Pressure Switch
Switch detects increase in power steering oil pressure. When
power steering oil pressure increases, switch contacts close,
signaling PCM. PCM commands IAC motor, raising idle speed to
compensate for drop in engine RPM due to power steering load.
Throttle Position (TP) Sensor
TP sensor is a variable resistor mounted on throttle body.
PCM uses voltage signal from TP sensor to determine throttle plate
angle.
Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS)
Mounted on transaxle/transmission, VSS sends a pulsing signal
to PCM for vehicle speed calculation. PCM uses this calculation for
cruise control and fuel cut-off.
Volume Airflow (VAF) Sensor
Incorporated into airflow sensor assembly, VAF sensor
measures intake airflow rate. Intake air flows through tunnel in
airflow sensor assembly. VAF sensor sends frequency signal to PCM. PCM
uses signal to adjust fuel injection rate.
OUTPUT SIGNALS
NOTE: Vehicles are equipped with various combinations of
computer-controlled components. Not all components listed
below are used on every vehicle. To determine component

should be actuated when pressure is 218-290 psi. Gradually open
shutoff valve to decrease pressure. Check pressure when PSP switch is
de-actuated. PSP switch should de-actuate at 102-174 psi. Turn engine
off. If PSP operates as specified, go to next step. If PSP does not
operate as specified, replace PSP switch. Go to step 8).
5) Disconnect PSP switch connector. On 3000GT, go to next
step. On Montero, turn ignition off. Disconnect PCM connector. Ground
PCM connector terminal No. 54. Using DVOM, check continuity between
chassis ground and PSP switch connector terminal No. 1. If continuity
does not exist, repair wiring harness as necessary. If continuity
exists, go to next step.
6) Turn ignition on. Using DVOM, check voltage between ground
and PSP switch connector terminal No. 1. If battery voltage does not
exist, replace PCM. If battery voltage exists, go to next step.
7) Road test vehicle and attempt to duplicate conditions that

DTC P0705: TRANSMISSION RANGE SENSOR CIRCUIT FAILURE
DTC P0705 is related to automatic transmission diagnostics.
For diagnostic procedure, see TRANSMISSION SERVICE & REPAIR article.
DTC P1103 & P1104: TURBOCHARGER WASTEGATE SOLENOID CIRCUIT
FAILURE
NOTE: This test applies to 3000GT with turbocharger only. For
terminal identification, see TERMINAL IDENTIFICATION. For
circuit and wire color identification, see
L - WIRING DIAGRAMS article.
1) If using scan tool, go to step 7). Remove vacuum hoses
from turbocharger wastegate solenoid. Disconnect solenoid harness
connector. Connect a vacuum pump to solenoid nipple "A". See Fig. 46.
Go to next step.
2) Using jumper wires, connect battery voltage and ground to
solenoid terminals. Ensure vacuum does not hold with nipple "B"
unplugged, and negative jumper wire connected. If solenoid does not
test as specified, replace solenoid. If solenoid tests as specified,
go to next step.

wiring harness as necessary. If continuity exists, go to next step.
5) Reconnect PCM connector. Turn ignition switch to ON
position. Check voltage between chassis ground and MDP sensor
connector terminal No. 3. If voltage is not 4.8-5.2 volts, replace
PCM. If voltage is as specified, condition required to set DTC is not
present at this time. Go to next step.
6) Test is complete. Intermittent problem may exist. Road
test vehicle (if necessary) and attempt to duplicate conditions that
caused original complaint. Recheck for DTCs. If no DTCs are displayed,
go to INTERMITTENT DTCS .

WHEEL & TIRE SPECIFICATIONS
Tire specifications are imprinted on the tire side wall. The
recommended cold tire inflation pressures are listed on a label
attached to the rear face of the driver's door. These pressures
provide the best combination of ride comfort, tire wear and stability
under normal conditions.
CAUTION: DO NOT mix tires of different design such as radial ply
with bias or bias-belted tires. Mixing tire types will
adversely affect road handling and may lead to loss of
vehicle control. When using snow tires, they must be used
in set of four for maneuverability and safety. DO NOT use
tire chains on front wheels.
