THROTTLE VALVE CLOSED POSITION LEARNING
THROTTLE VALVE CLOSED POSITION LEARNING
DescriptionINFOID:0000000009462555
Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning is a function of ECM to learn the fully closed position of the throttle
valve by monitoring the throttle position sensor output signal. It must be performed each time the harness con-
nector of electric throttle control actuator or ECM is disconnected or electric throttle control actuator is
cleaned.
Work ProcedureINFOID:0000000009462556
1.START
WITH CONSULT
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Select “CLSD THL POS LEARN” in “WORK SUPPORT” mode.
3. Follow the instructions on the CONSULT display.
4. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
Check that throttle valve moves during the above 10 seconds by confirming the operating sound.
WITHOUT CONSULT
1. Start the engine.
NOTE:
Coolant temperature is less than 25 °C (77 °F) before engine starts.
2. Warm up the engine. NOTE:
Warm up the engine until “COOLAN TEMP/S” on “DAT A MONITOR” of CONSULT reaches more than
65 °C (149 °F).
3. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
NOTE:
Check that throttle valve moves during the above 10 seconds by confirming the operating sound.

IDLE AIR VOLUME LEARNING
DescriptionINFOID:0000000009462557
Idle Air Volume Learning is a function of ECM to learn
the idle air volume that keeps engine idle speed within
the specific range. It must be performed under the following conditions:
• Each time the electric throttle c ontrol actuator or ECM is replaced.
• Idle speed or ignition timing is out of the specification.
Work ProcedureINFOID:0000000009462558
1.PRECONDITIONING
Check that all of the following conditions are satisfied.
Learning will be cancelled if any of the following conditions are missed for even a moment.
• Battery voltage: More than 12.9 V (At idle)
• Engine coolant temperature: 70 - 100 °C (158 - 212 °F)
• Selector lever position: P or N
• Electric load switch: OFF
(Air conditioner, head lamp, rear window defogger)
On vehicles equipped with daytime light systems, if the parking brake is applied before the engine is
started the head lamp will not illuminate.
• Steering wheel: Neutral (Straight-ahead position)
• Vehicle speed: Stopped
• Transmission: Warmed-up
- With CONSULT: Drive vehicle until “ATF TEMP SEN” in “DATA MONITOR” mode of “CVT” system indicates
less than 0.9 V.
- Without CONSULT: Drive vehicle for 10 minutes.
Will CONSULT be used?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> GO TO 3.
2.PERFORM IDLE AIR VOLUME LEARNING
With CONSULT
1. Perform Accelerator Pedal Released Position Learning. Refer to EC-681, "Work Procedure"
.
2. Perform Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning. Refer to EC-682, "Work Procedure"
.
3. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
4. Select “IDLE AIR VOL LEA RN” in “WORK SUPPORT” mode.
5. Touch “START” and wait 20 seconds.
Is
“CMPLT” displayed on CONSULT screen?
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> GO TO 5.
3.PERFORM IDLE AIR VOLUME LEARNING
Without CONSULT
NOTE:
• It is better to count the time accurately with a clock.
• It is impossible to switch the di agnostic mode when an accelerator pedal position sensor circuit has
a malfunction.
1. Perform Accelerator Pedal Released Position Learning. Refer to EC-681, "Work Procedure"
.
2. Perform Throttle Valve Closed Position Learning. Refer to EC-682, "Work Procedure"
.
3. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
4. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
5. Confirm that accelerator pedal is fully releas ed, turn ignition switch ON and wait 3 seconds.
6. Repeat the following procedure quickly 5 times within 5 seconds.
- Fully depress the accelerator pedal.
- Fully release the accelerator pedal.
7. Wait 7 seconds, fully depress the accelerator pedal for approx. 20 seconds until the MIL stops blinking
and turns ON.
8. Fully release the accelerator pedal within 3 seconds after the MIL turns ON.

FUEL PRESSURE CHECK
CAUTION:
• The fuel hose connection method used when taki ng fuel pressure check must not be used for other
purposes.
• Before disconnecting fuel line, release fuel pressure from fuel line to eliminate danger.
• Be careful not to scratch or get the fuel hose conn ection area dirty when servicing, so that the quick
connector o-ring ma intains seal ability.
• Use Fuel Pressure Gauge Kit [SST: — (J-44321)] an d Fuel Pressure Adapter [SST: — (J-44321-6)] to
check fuel pressure.
NOTE:
Prepare pans or saucers under the disconnected fuel line because the fuel may spill out. The fuel pres-
sure cannot be completely released because th is models do not have fuel return system.
1.FUEL PRESSURE CHECK
1. Release fuel pressure to zero.
2. Remove fuel hose using Quick Connector Release [SST: — (J-45488)]. CAUTION:
• Do not twist or kink fuel hose because it is plastic hose.
• Do not remove fuel hose from quick connector.
• Keep fuel hose connections clean.
3. Install Fuel Pressure Adapter [SST: — (J-44321-6)] (B) and Fuel Pressure Gauge kit [SST: — (J44321)] (A) as shown in figure.
CAUTION:
• Do not distort or bend fuel rail tube when installing fuel
pressure gauge adapter.
• When reconnecting fuel hose, check the original fuel hose
(1) for damage and abnormality.
4. Turn ignition switch ON (reactivate fuel pump) and check for fuel leakage.
5. Start engine and check for fuel leakage.
6. Read the indication of fuel pressure gauge kit [SST: — (J- 44321)].
CAUTION:
• During fuel pressure check, check for fuel leakage from fuel connection every 3 minutes.
Is the inspection result normal?
