DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM (ECM)
*: Leaving cooling fan OFF with CONSULT-III whil
e engine is running may cause the engine to overheat.
DTC & SRT CONFIRMATION MODE
SRT STATUS Mode
• For items whose SRT codes are set, “CMPLT” is displayed on the CONSULT-III screen; for items whose
SRT codes are not set, “INCMP” is displayed.
• “SRT STATUS” provides the presence or absence of permanent DTCs stored in ECM memory.
PERMANENT DTC STATUS Mode
How to display permanent DTC status
1. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
4. Turn ignition switch ON.
5. Select “PERMANENT DTC ST ATUS” in “DTC & SRT CONFIRMATION” mode with CONSULT-III.
NOTE:
Permanent DTCs stored in ECM memory are displayed on the CONSULT-III screen to show if a driving
pattern required for erasing permanent DTCs is complete (CMPLT) or incomplete (INCMP).
CAUTION:
Since the “PERMANENT DTC STATUS” screen displ ays the previous trip information, repeat the
following twice to update the in formation: “Ignition switch OFF” , “Wait for more than 10 seconds”
and “Ignition switch ON”.
NOTE:
This mode is not used in regions that permanent DTCs are not regulated by law.
SRT WORK SUPPORT Mode
This mode enables a technician to drive a vehicle to set the SRT while monitoring the SRT status.
PERMANENT DTC WORK SUPPORT Mode
This mode enables a technician to drive a vehicle to comp lete the driving pattern that is required for erasing
permanent DTC.

DescriptionINFOID:0000000005930017
The ECM controls the engine idle speed to a specified level through the fine adjustment of the air, which is let
into the intake manifold, by operating the electric thrott
le control actuator. The operating of the throttle valve is
varied to allow for optimum control of the engine idli ng speed. The crankshaft position sensor (POS) detects
the actual engine speed and sends a signal to the ECM.
The ECM controls the electric throttle control actuator so that the engine speed coincides with the target value
memorized in the ECM. The target engine speed is the lowest speed at which the engine can operate steadily.
The optimum value stored in the ECM is determined by taking into consideration various engine conditions,
such as during warming up, deceleration, and engine load (air conditioner, power steering and cooling fan
operation, etc.).

If the cooling fan or another component in the cooling system malfunctions, engine coolant temperature will
rise.
When the engine coolant temperature reaches an abnorma lly high temperature condition, a malfunction is
indicated.
CAUTION:
When a malfunction is indicated, be sure to replace the coolant. Refer to CO-11, "
Changing Engine

Malfunction 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.
