DTC Troubleshooting
NOTE
• When measuring circuit voltage, resistance and/or pulse signal at ECM connector, connect the
special tool to ECM and/or the ECM connectors re ferring to “Inspection of ECM and Its Circuits”.
• Upon completion of inspection and repair work, perform “DTC Confirmation Procedure” and confirm that the trouble has been corrected.

Step Action YesNo
1 Was “Engine and Emission Control System Check”
performed? Go to Step 2.
Go to “Engine and
Emission Control
System Check”.
2 Ignition spark check
1) Check that each spark plug sparks referring to “Ignition
Spark Test in Section 1H”.
Is check result satisfactory? Intermittent trouble.
Check for intermittent
referring to “Intermittent
and Poor Connection
Inspection in Section
00”.Go to Step 3.
3 Ignition coil power, output and ground circuit check
1) Disconnect ignition coil connector of the cylinder found
as faulty in Step 2.
2) Check ignition coil circuit of the cylinder found as faulty in Step 2 for the following.
• Voltage between power circuit wire terminal of ignition coil connector and vehicle body ground is 10 – 14 V
with ignition switch turned ON.
• Voltage between output circuit wire terminal of ignition coil connector and vehicle body ground is 4 – 6 V with
ignition switch turned ON.
• Resistance between ground circuit wire terminal of ignition coil connector and vehicle body ground is less
than 2 Ω.
Are they in good condition? Go to Step 4.
Repair or replace
defective wire.
4 Ignition coil check
1) Replace ignition coil for No.1 and No.4 spark plugs with
ignition coil for No.2 and No.3 spark plugs.
Is the cylinder found as faulty in good condition now? Faulty ignition coil. Go to Step 5.
5 Ignition coil output circuit check
1) Disconnect connectors from ECM.
2) Check ignition coil circuit of the cylinder found as faulty
in Step 2 for the following.
• Resistance of output wire circuit between ignition coil
connector and ECM connector is less than 2 Ω.
• Resistance of output wire circuit between ignition coil connector and vehicle b ody ground is infinity.
Are they in good condition? Substitute a known-
good ECM and recheck.
Repair or replace
defective wire.

StepAction YesNo
1 Was “Engine and Emission Control System Check”
performed? Go to Step 2.
Go to “Engine and
Emission Control
System Check in
Section 1A”.
2 Ignition spark test
1) Check all spark plugs for condition and type referring to
“Spark Plug Inspection”.
2) If OK, perform ignition spark test referring to “Ignition Spar k Tes t”.
Is spark emitted from all spark plugs? Go to Step 13. Go to Step 3.
3 DTC check
1) Perform DTC check referring to “DTC Check in Section
1A”.
Is DTC stored in ECM? Go to applicable DTC
diag. flow.
Go to Step 4.
4 Electrical connection check
1) Check ignition coil assemblies and high-tension cords
for electrical connection.
Are they connected securely? Go to Step 5.
Connect securely.
5 High-tension cords check
1) Check high-tension cord for resistance referring to
“High-Tension Cord Inspection”.
Is check result satisfactory? Go to Step 6.
Replace high-tension
cord(s).

Ignition Spark TestS7RS0B1804004
1) Remove air cleaner assembly with air intake pipe.
2) Disconnect all injector couplers from injectors.
WARNING!
Without disconnection of injector couplers,
combustible gas may come out from spark
plug holes during this test and may get
ignited in engine room.

3) Remove spark plug and check it for condition and
type referring to “Spark Plug Inspection”.
4) If OK, connect ignition coil coupler to ignition coil assembly and connect spark plug to ignition coil
assembly or high-tension cord. Ground spark plug. 5) Crank engine and check if each spark plug sparks.
6) If no spark is emitted, inspect the related parts as
described in “Ignition System Symptom Diagnosis”.
Repair Instructions
High-Tension Cord Removal and InstallationS7RS0B1806001
Removal
1) Remove air cleaner assembly with air intake pipe and cylinder head upper cover.
2) Disconnect No.1 cylinder (2) and No.3 cylinder (3)
high-tension cords from ignition coil assemblies (1)
while gripping each cap.
3) Pull out high-tension cords from spark plugs while gripping each cap.
CAUTION!
• Removal of high-tension cords together with clamps will be recommended so as
not to damage their inside wire (resistive
conductor).
• For the same reason, pull out each connection by gripping cap portion.

Installation
1) Install No.1 cylinder (2) and No.3 cylinder (3) high-
tension cords to spark plugs and ignition coil
assemblies (1) while gripping each cap.
CAUTION!
• Never attempt to use metal conductor high-tension cords as replacing parts.
• Insert each cap portion fully when installing high-tension cords.

2) Install ignition coil assemblies referring to “Ignition Coil Assembly (Including ignitor) Removal and
Installation”.
3) Install high-tension cords securely by gripping their caps.
4) Install cylinder head upper cover and air cleaner assembly with air intake pipe.
Spark Plug InspectionS7RS0B1806004
CAUTION!
• When servicing the iridium / platinum
spark plugs (slender center electrode type
plugs), do not touch the center electrode
to avoid damage to it. The electrode is not
strong enough against mechanical force
as it is slender and its material is not
mechanically tough.
• Do not clean or adjust gap for the iridium / platinum spark plugs.

Inspect spark plug for:
• Electrode wear
• Carbon deposits
• Insulator damage
If any abnormality is found for nickel spark plugs, adjust
air gap, clean with spark plug cleaner or replace them
with specified new plugs.
For iridium / platinum spark plugs, replace them with
new plugs.
Spark plug air gap
“a”
: 1.0 – 1.1 mm (0.040 – 0.043 in.)
Spark plug type
NGK: IFR6J11 (Iridium)
NOTE
NGK IFR6J11 is highly recommended for
better engine starting performance under –25
°C (–13 °F).
