Introduction
The engine has an ECM to control major systems such as fuel
injection control, fuel injection timing control, glow control system,
etc. The ECM accepts input signals from sensors and instantly
drives electronic fuel injection pump. It is essential that both input
and output signals are proper and stable. At the same time, it is
important that there are no problems such as vacuum leaks, or
other problems with the engine.
It is much more difficult to diagnose a problem that occurs intermit-
tently rather than continuously. Most intermittent problems are
caused by poor electric connections or improper wiring. In this
case, careful checking of suspected circuits may help prevent the
replacement of good parts.
A visual check only may not ®nd the cause of the problems. A road
test with CONSULT or a circuit tester connected should be per-
formed. Follow the ``Work Flow'', EC-44.
Before undertaking actual checks, take a few minutes to talk with
a customer who approaches with a driveability complaint. The cus-
tomer can supply good information about such problems, especially
intermittent ones. Find out what symptoms are present and under
what conditions they occur. A ``Diagnostic Worksheet'' like the
example on next page should be used.
Start your diagnosis by looking for ``conventional'' problems ®rst.
This will help troubleshoot driveability problems on an electronically
controlled engine vehicle.

Diagnostic Worksheet
There are many operating conditions that lead to the malfunction
of engine components. A good grasp of such conditions can make
troubleshooting faster and more accurate.
In general, each customer feels differently about a problem. It is
important to fully understand the symptoms or conditions for a
customer complaint.
Utilize a diagnostic worksheet like the one shown below in order to
organize all the information for troubleshooting.

Description for Work Flow
STEP DESCRIPTION
STEP IGet detailed information about the conditions and the environment when the incident/symptom occurred using the
``DIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEET'' as shown on EC-43.
STEP IIBefore con®rming the concern, check and write down (print out using CONSULT) the Diagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC), then erase the code. Refer to EC-30.
Study the relationship between the cause, speci®ed by DTC, and the symptom described by the customer. (The
``Symptom Matrix Chart'' will be useful. Refer to EC-48.)
STEP IIITry to con®rm the symptom and under what conditions the incident occurs.
The ``DIAGNOSTIC WORK SHEET'' is useful to verify the incident. Connect CONSULT to the vehicle in DATA
MONITOR (AUTO TRIG) mode and check real time diagnosis results.
If the incident cannot be veri®ed, perform INCIDENT SIMULATION TESTS. Refer to GI section.
If the malfunction code is detected, skip STEP IV and perform STEP V.
STEP IVTry to detect the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) by driving in (or performing) the ``DTC CONFIRMATION PROCE-
DURE''. Check and read the DTC by using CONSULT.
During the DTC veri®cation, be sure to connect CONSULT to the vehicle in DATA MONITOR (AUTO TRIG) mode
and check real time diagnosis results.
If the incident cannot be veri®ed, perform INCIDENT SIMULATION TESTS. Refer to GI section.
In case the ``DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE'' is not available, perform the ``OVERALL FUNCTION CHECK''
instead. The DTC cannot be displayed by this check, however, this simpli®ed ``check'' is an effective alternative.
The ``NG'' result of the ``OVERALL FUNCTION CHECK'' is the same as the DTC detection.
STEP VTake the appropriate action based on the results of STEP I through IV.
If the malfunction code is indicated, proceed to TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR DTC XX.
If the normal code is indicated, proceed to the BASIC INSPECTION. Refer to EC-46. Then perform inspections
according to the Symptom Matrix Chart. Refer to EC-48.
STEP VIIdentify where to begin diagnosis based on the relationship study between symptom and possible causes. Inspect
the system for mechanical binding, loose connectors or wiring damage using (tracing) ``Harness Layouts''.
Gently shake the related connectors, components or wiring harness with CONSULT set in ``DATA MONITOR
(AUTO TRIG)'' mode.
Check the voltage of the related ECM terminals or monitor the output data from the related sensors with CON-
SULT. Refer to EC-54.
The ``DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE'' in EC section contains a description based on open circuit inspection. A short
circuit inspection is also required for the circuit check in the DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE. For details, refer to GI
section (``Circuit Inspection'', ``HOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENT'').
Repair or replace the malfunction parts.
STEP VIIOnce you have repaired the circuit or replaced a component, you need to run the engine in the same conditions
and circumstances which resulted in the customer's initial complaint.
Perform the ``DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE'' and con®rm the normal code (Diagnostic trouble code No. 55)
is detected. If the incident is still detected in the ®nal check, perform STEP VI by using a different method from the
previous one.
Before returning the vehicle to the customer, be sure to erase the unnecessary (already ®xed) DTC in ECM. (Refer
to EC-30.)

System Description
This unit displays the following items:
+Earth magnetism and heading direction of vehicle.
+Outside air temperature.
+Caution for frozen road surfaces.
OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE DISPLAY
Push the switch when the ignition key is in the ``ACC'' or ``ON'' position. The outside temperature will be dis-
played in ``ÉF''.
+Selecting the indication range
Push the switch to change from ``ÉF'' to ``ÉC''.
+When the outside temperature drops below freezing point, ICE is displayed on the unit.
+When the outside temperature is between 55ÉC (130ÉF) and 70ÉC (158ÉF), the display shows 55ÉC
(130ÉF).
+When the outside temperature is lower than þ30ÉC (þ20ÉF) or higher than 70ÉC (158ÉF), the display shows
only ``- - -'' though it is operating. This is not a problem.
+The indicated temperature on the thermometer is not readily affected by engine heat. It changes only when
one of the following conditions is present.
a) The temperature detected by the ambient air temperature sensor is lower than the indicated temperature
on the thermometer.
b) The difference in temperature detected during a period of 40 seconds is less than 1ÉC (1.8ÉF) when vehicle
speed has been greater than 24 km/h (15 MPH) for more than 100 seconds.
(This is to prevent the indicated temperature from being affected by engine heat or cooling fan operation
during low-speed driving.)
c) The ignition key has been turned to the ``OFF'' position for more than 4 hours. (The engine is cold.)
DIRECTION DISPLAY
Push the switch when the ignition key is in the ``ACC'' or ``ON'' position. The direction will be displayed.

a) The temperature detected by the ambient air temperature sensor is lower than the indicated tem-
perature on the thermometer.
b) The difference in temperature detected during a period of 40 seconds is less than 1ÉC (1.8ÉF) when
vehicle speed has been greater than 24 km/h (15 MPH) for more than 100 seconds.
(This is to prevent the indicated temperature from being affected by engine heat or cooling fan
operation during low-speed driving.)
c) The ignition key has been turned to the ``OFF'' position for more than 4 hours. (The engine is cold.)
Calibration Procedure For Compass
The difference between magnetic North and geographical North
can sometimes be great enough to cause false compass readings.
In order for the compass to operate accurately in a particular zone,
it must be calibrated using the following procedure.
1. Determine your location on the worldwide magnetic variation
map on next page. Record your zone number.
2. Turn the ignition switch to ACC or ON position.
3. Push the ``Mode'' switch continuously for ®ve seconds until the
current zone entry number is displayed.
4. Press the ``Mode'' switch repeatedly until the desired zone num-
ber is displayed.
Once the desired zone number is displayed, stop pressing the
``Mode'' switch and the display will show compass direction after a
few seconds.
CORRECTION FUNCTIONS OF COMPASS
The direction display is equipped with automatic correction func-
tion. If the direction is not shown correctly, carry out initial correc-
tion.
INITIAL CORRECTION PROCEDURE FOR COMPASS
1. Pushing the ``Mode'' switch for about 10 seconds will enter the
initial correction mode. The direction bar starts blinking.
2. Turn the vehicle slowly in an open, safe place. The initial cor-
rection is completed in one or two turns.
NOTE:
In places where the terrestrial magnetism is extremely
disturbed, the initial correction may start automatically.
