COMPONENT PARTS

*: These data are reference values and are measured between ECM terminals.
Cooling FanINFOID:0000000009462077
The ECM controls the cooling fan corresponding to the
vehicle speed, engine coolant temperature, refrigerant
pressure, and air conditioner ON signal. The control system has 4-step control [HIGH/MIDDLE/LOW/OFF].
Cooling fan operates at each speed when the current flows in the cooling fan motor.
Refer to EC-59, "COOLING FAN CONTROL : System De scription (with automatic air conditioner)"
for cooling
fan operation.
EVAP CanisterINFOID:0000000009462078
EVAP canister stores the generat ed fuel vapors in the sealed fuel
tank to activated charcoals of EVAP canister when the engine is not
operating or when refueling to the fuel tank.
EVAP Canister Purge Volume Control Solenoid ValveINFOID:0000000009462079
The EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve uses a ON/
OFF duty to control the flow rate of fuel vapor from the EVAP canis-
ter. The EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve is
moved by ON/OFF pulses from the ECM. The longer the ON pulse,
the greater the amount of fuel vapor that will flow through the valve.

COMPONENT PARTS
Battery temperature sensor is int
egrated in battery current sensor.
The sensor measures temperature around the battery.
The electrical resistance of the t hermistor decreases as temperature
increases.

*: These data are reference values and are measured between battery temperature
sensor signal terminal and sensor ground.
Malfunction Indicator lamp (MIL)INFOID:0000000009462083
The Malfunction Indicator lamp (MIL) is located on the combination
meter.
The MIL will illuminate when the ignition switch is turned ON without
the engine running. This is a bulb check.
When the engine is started, the MI L should turn OFF. If the MIL
remains illuminated, the on board diagnostic system has detected an
engine system malfunction.
For details, refer to EC-74, "DIAGNOSIS DESCRIPTION : Malfunc-
tion Indicator Lamp (MIL)".
Oil Pressure Warning LampINFOID:0000000009462084
Oil pressure warning lamp is located on the combination meter.
It indicates the low pressure of the engine oil and the malfunction of
the engine oil pressure system.
Combination meter turns the oil pressure warning lamp ON/OFF
according to the oil pressure warning lamp signal received from
ECM via CAN communication.
For details, refer to EC-55, "ENGINE PROTECTION CONTROL AT
LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE : System Description".
Refrigerant Pressure SensorINFOID:0000000009462085
The refrigerant pressure sensor is installed at the c ondenser of the air conditioner system. The sensor uses an
electrostatic volume pressure transducer to convert refrigerant pressure to voltage. The voltage signal is sent
to ECM, and ECM controls cooling fan system.
Stop Lamp Switch & Brake Pedal Position SwitchINFOID:0000000009462086
Stop lamp switch and brake pedal position switch are installed to brake pedal bracket.
ECM detects the state of the brake pedal by those two types of input (ON/OFF signal).

Description
When a DTC is detected, ECM executes a mode (in the
Fail-safe mode) applicable to the DTC. The fail-safe
mode has the preset traveling control mode (accelera tor angle variation and engine output limit) and device fix
mode.

indicator
lamp circuit Engine speed will not rise
more than 2,500 rpm due
to the fuel cut When there is an open circuit on MIL circuit, the ECM cannot warn the
driver by lighting up MIL when there is malfunction on engine control
system.
Therefore, when electrical controlled throttle and part of ECM related
diagnoses are continuously detected as NG for 5 trips, ECM warns the
driver that engine control system malfunctions and MIL circuit is open
by means of operating fail safe function.
The fail safe function also operates when above diagnoses except MIL
circuit are detected and demands the driver to repair the malfunction. EC-517, "Compo-

• When cranking the engine.
• At high engine speeds.
• When the engine coolant temperat ure becomes excessively high.
• When operating power steering during low engine speed or low vehicle speed.
• When engine speed is excessively low.
• When refrigerant pressure is excessively low or high.
