PRECAUTION IN DIAGNOSING TROUBLE

Don't disconnect couplers from PCM (ECM), battery cable from battery, PCM ground wire harness from engine
or main fuse before checking the diagnosis information (DTC, freeze frame data, etc.) stored in PCM memory.
Such disconnection will clear memorized information in PCM memory.

Using SUZUKI scan tool (Tech-1), or also generic scan tool for vehicle without monitor connector, the diagnostic
information stored in PCM memory can be checked and cleared as well. Before its use, be sure to read Operator's
(instruction) Manual supplied with it carefully to have good understanding of its functions and usage.

Priorities for diagnosing troubles (Only for vehicle without monitor connector)
If two or more diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are stored, proceed to the flow table of the DTC which was de-
tected earliest in the order and follow the instruction in that table.
If no instructions are given, troubleshoot diagnostic trouble codes according to the following priorities.
1. Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) other than DTC P0171 / P0172 (Fuel system too lean / too rich) and DTC
P0400 (EGR flow malfunction)
2. DTC P0171 / P0172 (Fuel system too lean / too rich) and DTC P0400 (EGR flow malfunction)

Be sure to read ªPrecautions for Electrical Circuit Serviceº in Section 0A before inspection and observe what is
written there.

PCM replacement
When substituting a known-good PCM, check for following conditions.
Neglecting this check may result in damage to good PCM.
± All relays and actuators have resistance of specified value.
± MAF sensor, MDP sensor, TP sensor and fuel tank pressure sensor are in good condition. Also, the power
circuit of these sensors is not shorted to the ground.

WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System

Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to ªAir Bag System Components and Wiring Location Viewº under ªGener-
al Descriptionº in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing service on
or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and ªService Precau-
tionsº under ªOn-Vehicle Serviceº in air bag system section before performing service on or around
the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in unintentional
activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two conditions may
result in severe injury.

Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
ªLOCKº position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system may
be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).

[NOTES ON SYSTEM CIRCUIT INSPECTION]
Refer to ªPrecautions for Electrical Circuit Serviceº and ªIntermit-
tents and Poor Connectionº in Section 0A.
[Precaution after replacing ECM / PCM or Immobilizer Control Mod-
ule]

When ECM / PCM was replaced, including when replaced be-
cause rechecking by using a known-good ECM / PCM was neces-
sary during trouble diagnosis, the ECM/Immobilizer Control Mod-
ule code must be registered in ECM / PCM and Immobilizer
Control Module by performing procedure described in ªProce-
dure after ECM / PCM Replacementº on p. 8G-27. If it is not regis-
tered, the engine would not start and accurate trouble diagnosis
would not be assured.

When Immobilizer Control Module was replaced, including when
replaced because rechecking by using a known-good Immobiliz-
er Control Module was necessary during trouble diagnosis, the
Transponder code and ECM/Immobilizer Control Module code
must be registered in Immobilizer Control Module and ECM/Im-
mobilizer Control Module code in ECM / PCM by performing pro-
cedure described in ªProcedure after Immobilizer Control Module
Replacementº on p. 8G-26. If they are not registered, the engine
would not start and accurate trouble diagnosis would not be as-
sured.
