Brake
Foot brake
Check the following:
• that brake pedal has proper travel,
• that brake works properly,
• that it is free from noise,
• that vehicle does not pull to one side when brake is applied.
• and that brake do not drag.
Parking brake
Check that lever has proper travel.
WARNING!
With vehicle parked on a fairly steep slope,
make sure nothing is in the way downhill to
avoid any personal injury or property
damage. Be prepared to apply regular brake
quickly even if vehicle should start to move.

Check to ensure that parking brake is fully effective
when the vehicle is stopped on the safe slope and brake
lever is pulled all the way.

side.
Engine
• Check that engine responds readily at all speeds.
• Check that engine is free from abnormal noise and abnormal vibration.
Body, Wheels and Power Transmitting System
Check that body, wheels and power transmitting system
are free from abnormal noise and abnormal vibration or
any other abnormal condition.

Check that speedometer, odometer, fuel meter,
temperature gauge, etc. are operating accurately.
Lights
Check that all lights operate properly.
Windshield Defroster
Periodically check that ai r comes out from defroster
outlet when operating heater or air conditioning.
Set mode control lever to defroster position and fan
switch lever to “HI” position for this check.

Scan Tool DataS7RS0B1104007
As the data values are standard values estimated on the basis of values obtained from the normally operating vehicles
by using a scan tool, use them as re ference values. Even when the vehicle is in good condition, there may be cases
where the checked value does not fall within each specified data range. Therefore, judgment as abnormal should not
be made by checking with these data alone.
Also, conditions that can be checked by the scan tool are those detected by ECM and output from ECM as commands
and there may be cases where the engine or actuator is not operating (in the condition) as indicated by the scan tool.
Be sure to use the timing light to check the ignition timing.
NOTE
• There are two types of OBD system depending on the vehicle specification.
For details, refer to “Precaution on On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) System”.
• With the generic scan tool, only star (*) marked data in the following table can be read.
• When checking the data with the engine running at idle or racing, be sure to shift M/T gear to the neutral position and A/T gear to the “Park” position and pull the parking brake fully. Also, if nothing
or “no load” is indicated, turn O FF A/C (if equipped with A/C), all electric loads, P/S and all the other
necessary switches.

circuit low input
• ECM turns off throttle actuator control relay and throttle valve is fixed at the specified opening from
its completely closed position (default opening).
For details, refer to “Description of Electric
Throttle Body System”.
• ECM controls fuel cut at specified engine speed.
• ECM stops air/fuel ratio control.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 1A-40 Engine General Information and Diagnosis:
11Check fuel pump for operation
Was fuel pump operating sou nd heard from fuel filler for
about 2 seconds after ignition switch ON and stop? Go to “Fuel Pressure
Check”.
Go to “Fuel Pump and
Its Circuit Check”.
12 Check ignition spark
1) Disconnect injector couplers.
2) Remove spark plugs and connect them to high-tension
cords or ignition coil assemblies.
3) Ground spark plugs.
4) Crank engine and check if each spark plug sparks.
Is it in good condition? Go to Step 13. Go to “Ignition Spark
Test in Section 1H”.
13 Check fuel injector for operation
1) Install spark plugs and connect injector connectors.
2) Using sound scope (1), check operating sound of each
injector (2) when cranking engine.
Was injector operating sound heard from all injectors? Go to “Engine Symptom
Diagnosis”.
Go to “Fuel Injector
Circuit Check”.
