body nipple. Cap the inch nipple.
5. Connect the scan tool to the data link connector .
6.Restart the engine. Allow engine to idle for at least one
minute. All accessories should be off.
7. Using the scan tool, access the ACTUATOR TEST “Minimum Airflow Idle Speed” screen.
8. The following will then occur:
lIdle air control motor will fully close.
lIdle spark advance will become fixed.
l Scan tool displays engine speed.
9. If idle speed is within the range shown in the
Specification chart, throttle body minimum airflow is set
correctly.
Standard value:
(Less than 1,000 miles)
(More than 1,000 miles)
If idle speed is not within the standard value, use the
scan tool to access the special function “Reset AC” screen
and reset the Then carry out step 7 again.
10. If idle speed is above specifications, use the scan tool
to check idle air control motor operation. If idle air control
motor is OK, replace the throttle body.
NOTE
If the throttle body is replaced, reset the IAC.
idle speed is below specifications, shut off the e ngine
and clean the throttle body as follows: (a) Remove the throttle body from engine.
WARNING:
CLEAN THROTTLE BODY IN A WELL-VENTILATED
AREA. WEAR RUBBER OF BUTYL GLOVES, DO
NOT LET CLEANER COME IN CONTACT WITH

disconnected since last power has been
generated, this DTC must be cleared. Furthermore, select “Special function” on the scan tool
and then set the scan tool to Quick Learn mode (car ry

PINION FACTOR WRITING PROCEDURE
REPLACEMENT OR TIRE SIZE
NOTE
With transmissions, the TCM uses the rotation speed
of the transaxle output shaft to calculate the vehicle speed
and cumulative distance
Because of this, it is
necessary to input (or update) the tire size coeffi cient into
the TCM memory after the TCM has been replaced or t he
tire size has been changed.
(1) Select “Special function” on the scan
