JUMP STARTING
JUMP STARTING WITH AN AUXILIARY
(BOOSTER) BATTERY
CAUTION: Never push or tow the vehicle in an
attempt to start it. Serious damage to the emission
system as well as other vehicle parts will result.
Treat both the discharged battery and the booster
battery with great care when using jumper cables.
Carefully follow the jump starting procedure, being
careful at all times to avoid sparking.
WARNING: Failure to carefully follow the jump
starting procedure could result in the following:
1. Serious personal injury, particularly to your
eyes.
2. Property damage from a battery explosion,
battery acid, or an electrical fire.
3. Damage to the electronic components of one or
both vehicles.
Never expose the battery to an open flame or electrical
spark. Gas generated by the battery may catch fire or
explode. Remove any rings, watches, or other jewelry
before working around the battery. Protect your eyes by
wearing an approved set of goggles.
Never allow battery fluid to come in contact with your
eyes or skin.
Never allow battery fluid to come in contact with fabrics
or painted surfaces.
Battery fluid is a highly corrosive acid.Should battery fluid come in contact with your eyes,
skin, fabric, or a painted surface, immediately and
thoroughly rinse the affected area with clean tap water.
Never allow metal tools or jumper cables to come in
contact with the positive battery terminal, or any other
metal surface of the vehicle. This will protect against a
short circuit.
Always keep batteries out of the reach of young
children.
JUMP STARTING PROCEDURE
1. Set the vehicle parking brake.
If the vehicle is equipped with an automatic
transmission, place the selector lever in the “PARK”
position.

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM 9J–14
10. Place a power source near the shorted end of the
SRS deployment harness. Recommended
application: 12 volts minimum, 2 amps minimum. A
vehicle battery is suggested.
11. Connect the driver air bag assembly to the pigtail
adapter on the SRS deployment harness.
Deployment harness shall remain shorted and not be
connected to a power source until the air bag is to be
deployed. The driver air bag assembly will
immediately deploy the air bag when a power source
is connected to it.
NOTE: Ensure that the pigtail adapter is firmly seated into
the driver air bag assembly connector. Failure to fully
seat the connectors may leave the shorting bar located in
the driver air bag assembly connector functioning
(shorted) and may result in nondeployment of the driver
air bag assembly.
12. Verify that the area around the driver air bag
assembly is clear of all people and loose or flammable
objects.
13. Verify that the driver air bag assembly is resting with
its trim cover facing up.
14. Notify all people in the immediate area that you intend
to deploy the driver air bag. The deployment will be
accompanied by a substantial noise which may
startle the uninformed.
15. Separate the two banana plugs on the SRS
deployment harness.
NOTE: When the air bag deploys, the driver air bag
assembly may jump about 3 m (ten feet) vertically. This
is a normal reaction of the driver air bag to the force of the
rapid gas expansion inside the air bag.
NOTE: When the air bag deploys, the rapid gas
expansion will create a substantial noise. Notify all
people in the immediate area that you intend to deploy the
driver air bag.
WARNING: DEPLOYMENT HARNESS SHALL
REMAIN SHORTED AND NOT BE CONNECTED TO A
POWER SOURCE UNTIL THE AIR BAG IS TO BE
DEPLOYED. THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY WILL
IMMEDIATELY DEPLOY THE AIR BAG WHEN A
POWER SOURCE IS CONNECTED TO IT.
CONNECTING THE DEPLOYMENT HARNESS TO
THE POWER SOURCE SHOULD ALWAYS BE THE
LAST STEP IN THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY
DEPLOYMENT PROCEDURE. FAILURE TO FOLLOW
PROCEDURES IN THE ORDER LISTED MAY RESULT
IN PERSONAL INJURY.
16. Connect the SRS deployment harness wires to the
power source to immediately deploy the driver air
bag. Recommended application: 12 volts minimum, 2
amps minimum. A vehicle battery is suggested.
17. Disconnect the SRS deployment harness from the
power source.
18. Short the two SRS deployment harness leads
together by fully seating one banana plug into the
other.19. In the unlikely event that the driver air bag assembly
did not deploy after following these procedures,
proceed immediately with Steps 24 through 26. If the
driver air bag assembly did deploy, proceed with
Steps 20 through 23.
20. Put on a pair of shop gloves and safety glasses to
protect your hands and eyes from possible irritation
and heat when handling the deployed driver air bag
assembly. After the air bag assembly has been
deployed, the surface of the air bag may contain a
powdery residue. This solid particulate consists
primarily of by products of the chemical reaction,
Potassium Chloride and copper metal dust.
Compounds of Potassium Borate, Strontium
Chloride, Copper Chloride, and Ammonium Chloride
may be found in amounts of about 1 % (each) of the
total particulate.
WARNING: SAFETY PRECAUTIONS MUST BE
OBSERVED WHEN HANDING A DEPLOYED AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY. AFTER DEPLOYMENT, THE METAL
SURFACES OF THE AIR BAG ASSEMBLY WILL BE
VERY HOT. ALLOW THE INFLATOR MODULE TO
COOL BEFORE HANDLING ANY METAL PORTION
OF IT. DO NOT PLACE THE DEPLOYED AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY NEAR ANY FLAMMABLE OBJECTS.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW PROCEDURES MAY RESULT
IN FIRE OR PERSONAL INJURY.
AFTER A DRIVER AIR BAG ASSEMBLY HAS BEEN
DEPLOYED, THE METAL CANISTER AND
SURROUNDING AREAS OF THE DRIVER AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY WILL BE VERY HOT. DO NOT TOUCH
THE METAL AREAS OF THE DRIVER AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY FOR ABOUT TEN MINUTES AFTER
DEPLOYMENT. IF THE DEPLOYED DRIVER AIR BAG
ASSEMBLY MUST BE MOVED BEFORE IT IS COOL,
WEAR GLOVES AND HANDLE BY THE AIR BAG OR
TRIM COVER.
21. Disconnect the pigtail adapter from the driver air bag
assembly as soon after deployment as possible. This
will prevent damage to the pigtail adapter or SRS
deployment harness due to possible contact with the
hot driver air bag assembly canister. The pigtail
adapter can be reused. They should, however, be
inspected for damage after each deployment and
replaced if necessary.
22. Dispose of the deployed driver air bag assembly
through normal refuse channels after it has cooled for
at least 30 minutes.
23. Wash your hands with mild soap and water afterward.
NOTE: The remaining steps are to be followed in the
unlikely event that the driver air bag assembly did not
deploy after following these procedures.
24. Ensure that the SRS deployment harness has been
disconnected from the power source and that its two
banana plugs have been shorted together by fully
seating one banana plug into the other.
25. Disconnect the pigtail adapter from the driver air bag
assembly.

General Diagnosis
General Information
ABS malfunction can be classified into two types, those
which can be detected by the ABS warning light and those
which can be detected as a vehicle abnormality by the
driver.
In either case, locate the fault in accordance with the
“BASIC DIAGNOSTIC FLOWCHART” and repair.
Please refer to Section 5C for the diagnosis of
mechanical troubles such as brake noise, brake judder
(brake pedal or vehicle vibration felt when braking),
uneven braking, and parking brake trouble.
ABS Service Precautions
Required Tools and Items:
Box Wrench
Brake Fluid
Special Tool
Some diagnosis procedures in this section require the
installation of a special tool.
J-39200 High Impedance Multimeter
When circuit measurements are requested, use a circuit
tester with high impedance.
Computer System Service Precautions
The Anti-lock Brake System interfaces directly with the
Electronic Hydraulic Control Unit (EHCU) which is a
control computer that is similar in some regards to the
Powertrain Control Module. These modules are designed
to withstand normal current draws associated with
vehicle operation. However, care must be taken to avoid
overloading any of the EHCU circuits. In testing for opens
or shorts, do not ground or apply voltage to any of the
circuits unless instructed to do so by the appropriate
diagnostic procedure. These circuits should only be
tested with a high impedance multimeter (J-39200) or
special tools as described in this section. Power should
never be removed or applied to any control module with
the ignition in the “ON” position.
Before removing or connecting battery cables, fuses or
connectors, always turn the ignition switch to the “OFF”
position.
General Service Precautions
The following are general precautions which should be
observed when servicing and diagnosing the Anti-lock
Brake System and/or other vehicle systems. Failure toobserve these precautions may result in Anti-lock Brake
System damage.
If welding work is to be performed on the vehicle using
an electric arc welder, the EHCU and valve block
connectors should be disconnected before the
welding operation begins.
The EHCU and valve block connectors should never
be connected or disconnected with the ignition “ON” .
EHCU of the Anti-lock Brake System are not
separately serviceable and must be replaced as
assemblies. Do not disassemble any component
which is designated as non-serviceable in this
Section.
If only rear wheels are rotated using jacks or drum
tester, the system will diagnose a speed sensor
malfunction and the “ABS” warning light will
illuminate. But actually no trouble exists. After
inspection stop the engine once and re-start it, then
make sure that the “ABS” warning light does not
illuminate.
If the battery has been discharged
The engine may stall if the battery has been completely
discharged and the engine is started via jumper cables.
This is because the Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
requires a large quantity of electricity. In this case, wait
until the battery is recharged, or set the ABS to a
non-operative state by removing the fuse for the ABS
(40A). After the battery has been recharged, stop the
engine and install the ABS fuse. Start the engine again,
and confirm that the ABS warning light does not light.
Note on Intermittents
As with virtually any electronic system, it is difficult to
identify an intermittent failure. In such a case duplicating
the system malfunction during a test drive or a good
description of vehicle behavior from the customer may be
helpful in locating a “most likely” failed component or
circuit. The symptom diagnosis chart may also be useful
in isolating the failure. Most intermittent problems are
caused by faulty electrical connections or wiring. When
an intermittent failure is encountered, check suspect
circuits for:
Suspected harness damage.
Poor mating of connector halves or terminals not fully
seated in the connector body (backed out).
Improperly formed or damaged terminals.

2. Install fuel filter holder fixing bolt.
3. Connect fuel hoses on engine side(1) and fuel tank
side(2).
041RW001
4. Install fuel filler cap
5. Connect the battery ground cable.
Inspection
After installation, start engine and check for fuel leakage.
In–Tank Fuel Filter
The filter is located on the lower end of fuel pickup tube in
the fuel tank. It prevents dirt from entering the fuel pipe
and also stops water unless the filter is completely
submerged in the water. It is a self cleaning type, not
requiring scheduled maintenance. Excess water and
sediment in the tank restricts fuel supply to the engine,
resulting in engine stoppage. In such a case, the tank
must be cleaned thoroughly.
Fuel Pump Flow Test
If reduction of fuel supply is suspected, perform the
following checks:
1. Make sure that there is fuel in the tank.
2. With the engine running, check the fuel feed pipe and
hose from fuel tank to injector for evidence of
leakage. Retighten, if pipe or hose connection is
loose. Also, check pipes and hoses for squashing or
clogging.
3. Insert the hose from fuel feed pipe into a clean
container, and check for fuel pump flow rate.4. Connect the pump relay terminals with a jumper
wire(1) as shown and start the fuel pump to measure
delivery.
