Injection Timing Control Valve
The injection timing control valve is built into the fuel injection
pump. It controls the timer piston to change the fuel injection
timing.
The timing control valve is a solenoid valve located in the line
between high-pressure chamber and low-pressure chamber. It
changes fuel pressure in the high-pressure chamber.
When current flows through the solenoid (the solenoid turns ON),
the timing control valve opens, advancing fuel injection timing.
When current does not flow through it, the timing control valve
closes, retarding injection timing.
The ECM emits an ON-OFF duty cycle signal. The longer the
OFF-duration, the greater the advance angle. The longer the
ON-duration, the greater the retard angle. This means that
changing the ON-OFF duty cycle ratio makes it possible to
achieve an optimal advance angle and accurately control fuel
injection timing.

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CONFIRMATION
PROCEDURE FOR INJECTION TIMING CONTROL
SYSTEM
1) Turn ignition switch to ªONº position and select ªDATA
MONITORº mode with CONSULT-II.
2) Start engine. Run engine for 10 seconds at idle.
NOTE:
If malfunction occurs intermittently, conduct suitable driv-
ing pattern for 10 minutes. This makes it possible to deter-
mine the diagnostic trouble.

The ECM controls the cooling fan corresponding to the vehicle speed, engine coolant temperature, air con-
ditioner system pressure and air conditioner ON signal. The control system has 3-step control [HIGH/LOW/
OFF]. This system indirectly relates to diagnostic trouble code 28 (Overheat).
Operation
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSIS LOGIC
This diagnosis continuously monitors the engine coolant temperature.
If the cooling fan or another component in the cooling system malfunctions, engine coolant temperature will
rise.
When the engine coolant temperature reaches an abnormally high temperature condition, a malfunction is
indicated.

nal is detected by the ECM. (Overheat)lHarness or connectors

CAUTION:
When a malfunction is indicated, be sure to replace the coolant following the procedure in the MA
section (ªChanging Engine Coolantº, ªENGINE MAINTENANCEº). Also, replace the engine oil.
a. Fill radiator with coolant up to specified level with a filling speed of 2 liters per minute. Be sure
to use coolant with the proper mixture ratio. Refer to MA section (ªAnti-freeze Coolant Mixture
Ratioº, ªRECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTSº).
b. After refilling coolant, run engine to ensure that no water-flow noise is emitted.

OVERALL FUNCTION CHECK
Use this procedure to check the overall function of the cooling
fan. During this check, a DTC might not be confirmed.
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Seri-
ous burns could be caused by high pressure fluid escaping
from the radiator.
Wrap a thick cloth around the cap. Carefully remove the cap
by turning it a quarter turn to allow built-up pressure to
escape. Then turn the cap all the way off.
1) Check the coolant level in the reservoir tank and radiator.
Allow engine to cool before checking coolant level.
If the coolant level in the reservoir tank and/or radiator is
below the proper range, skip the following steps and go to
ªDIAGNOSTIC PROCEDUREº, EC-CD-90.
2) Confirm whether customer filled the coolant or not. If cus-
tomer filled the coolant, skip the following steps and go to
ªDIAGNOSTIC PROCEDUREº, EC-CD-90.
3) Turn ignition switch to ªONº position.
4) Perform ªCOOLING FANº in ªACTIVE TESTº mode
with CONSULT-II (LOW speed and HI speed).

3) Start engine.
Be careful not to overheat engine.
4) Set temperature control switch to full cold position.
5) Push Air Conditioner switch to ªONº position.
6) Turn blower fan switch to ªONº position.
7) Run engine at idle for a few minutes with Air Con-
ditioner operating.
Be careful not to overheat engine.
8) Make sure that both cooling fans operate at low
speed.
9) Turn ignition switch to ªLOCKº position.
10) Push Air Conditioner switch and blower fan switch
to ªOFFº position.
11) Disconnect engine coolant temperature sensor
harness connector.
12) Connect 150Wresistor to engine coolant tempera-
ture sensor harness connector.
13) Restart engine and make sure that both cooling
fans operate at higher speed than low speed.
