MONITOR DRIVE PATTERN
1. TEST MONITOR DRIVE PATTERN FOR ECT
CAUTION:
Perform this drive pattern on a level surface and
strictly observe the posted speed limits and traffic
laws while driving.
HINT:
Performing this drive pattern is one method to simulate
the ECT's malfunction detection conditions.
The DTCs may not be detected through ordinary,
everyday driving. Also, DTCs may not be detected
through this drive pattern.
(a) Preparation for driving
(1) Warm up the engine sufficiently (engine coolant
temperature is 60
C (140F) or higher).
(2) Drive the vehicle when the atmospheric
temperature is -10
C (14F) or higher.
Malfunction is not detected when the
atmospheric temperature is less than -10
C
(14
F).
(b) Drive pattern
(1) Drive the vehicle through all the gears.
St o p
1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 5th
(lock-up ON).
(2) Repeat the above drive pattern 3 times or more.
NOTICE:
• When using the intelligent tester, the
monitor status can be found in
"ENHANCED OBD II / DATA LIST" or under
"CARB OBD II".
• In the event that the drive pattern must be
interrupted (due to traffic conditions or
other factors), the drive pattern can be
resumed and, in most cases, the monitor
can be completed.
CAUTION:
Perform this drive pattern on a level road as
much as possible and strictly observe the
posted speed limits and traffic laws while
driving.

HINT:
*: Drive at such a speed in the uppermost gear to engage
lock-up. The vehicle can be driven at a speed lower than the
speed shown in the above diagram under the lock-up
condition.
NOTICE:
It is necessary to drive the vehicle for approximately 30
minutes to detect DTC P0711 (Transmission fluid
temperature sensor "A" performance).

PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
HINT:
• Use the table below to help determine the cause of the
problem symptom. The potential causes of the symptoms
are listed in order of probability in the "Suspected area"
column of the table. Check each symptom by checking the
suspected areas in the order they are listed. Replace parts
as necessary.
• The Matrix Chart is divided into 2 chapters. When
troubleshooting, check Chapter 1 first. If instructions are
given in Chapter 1 to proceed to 2, proceed as instructed.
• If the instruction "Proceed to next circuit inspection shown
in problem symptoms table" is given in the flowchart for
each circuit, proceed to the next suspected area in the
table.
• If the problem still occurs even though there are no
malfunctions in any of the circuits, check the ECM and
replace it if necessary.

DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
1. DESCRIPTION
(a) When troubleshooting On-Board Diagnostic (OBD
II) vehicles, the vehicle must be connected to the
OBD II scan tool (complying with SAE J1987).
Various data output from the vehicle's ECM can
then be read.
(b) OBD II regulations require that the vehicle's on-
board computer illuminates the Malfunction
Indicator Lamp (MIL) on the instrument panel when
the computer detects a malfunction in:
(1) The emission control system/components
(2) The powertrain control components (which affect
vehicle emissions)
(3) The computer
In addition, the applicable Diagnostic Trouble
Codes (DTCs) prescribed by SAE J2012 are
recorded in the ECM memory.
When the malfunction does not reoccur, the MIL
stays illuminated until the ignition switch is
turned OFF, and the MIL turns OFF when the
engine is started. However, the DTCs remain
recorded in the ECM memory.
(c) To check DTCs, connect the intelligent tester to the
Data Link Connector 3 (DLC3) of the vehicle. The
tester displays DTCs, the freeze frame data and a
variety of the engine data.
The DTCs and freeze frame data can be erased
with the tester (see page AX-40).
2. NORMAL MODE AND CHECK MODE
(a) The diagnosis system operates in "normal mode"
during normal vehicle use. In normal mode, "2 trip
detection logic" is used to ensure accurate detection
of malfunctions. "Check mode" is also available to
technicians as an option. In check mode, "1 trip
detection logic" is used for simulating malfunction
symptoms and increasing the system's ability to
detect malfunctions, including intermittent
malfunctions.
3. 2 TRIP DETECTION LOGIC
(a) When a malfunction is first detected, the
malfunction is temporarily stored in the ECM
memory (1st trip). If the same malfunction is
detected during the next drive cycle, the MIL is
illuminated (2nd trip).
