tion location
1) Keep the antenna as far as possible
away from the electronic control
units
2) Also keep the antenna feeder line
more than
20 cm (7 9 in) away from
the harness of electronic controls
Do not let them run parallel for a
long distance
3) Adjust the antenna and feeder line so
that the standing-wave ratio can be
keot smaller

take system can cause serious
problems
Do not depress accelerator Do not shock or jar the crank

Immediately after starting, do
pedal when starting
not rev
up engine unneces-
sarily
Do not rev up engine just prioi
to shutdown
Do not operate fuel pump when
there is no fuel in lines Do not use anti-freeze agents in fuel
0 Do not reuse fuel hose clamps
0 Tighten fuel hose clamps sufficiently
Securely connect E C C S harness
connectors
A poor connection can cause an ex-
tremely
high (surge) voltage to
develop in coil and condenser, thus
resulting in damage to IC circuit
Keep
E C C S harness at least 10 cm
(3 9 in) away from adjacent
harnesses, to prevent an
E C C S
system malfunction due to reception
of external noise, degraded operation
of
IC circuit. etc
Keep E C C S parts and harnesses
Before removing parts, turn off igni-
tion switch and then disconnect
battery ground cable dry

E C C.S. CONTROL UNIT
The E C C S control unit consists of a micro-
computer, connectors for signal input and output
and power supply, inspection lamps and diagnostic
mode selector The control unit controls the
amount
of fuel that is injected, ignition timing, idle
speed,
E G R , fuel pump operation, and feedback
of the mixture ratio

CRANK ANGLE SENSOR
Crank angle sensor is a basic signal sensor for the
entire
E C C S It monitors engine speed and piston
position, and
it sends signals to the E C C S con-
trol unit for control of
fuel injection, ignition
timing, idle speed, fuel pump operation and
E G R
operation.
rnponents
Crank angle sensor has rotor plate and wave form-
ing circuit Rotor plate has
360 slits for 1" signal
(engine speed signal) and
6 slits for 120" signal
(crank angle signal) Light Emitting Diodes
(L
E D ) and Photo Diodes are built into wave
forming circuit
When
signal rotor plate passes the space between
the
L E D and Photo Diode, the slit of the signal
rotor plate alternately cuts the light which
is sent
to
the photo diode from the L E D This causes an
alternative voltage and
it is then converted into an
on-otf pulse by the wave forming circuit, which IS
sent to the control unit

CYLINDER HEAD TEMPERATURE SENSOR
SEF6198
nents (Cont'd)
The cylinder head temperature sensor, built into
the cylinder head, monitors changes in cylinder
head temperature and transmits
a signal to the
E C C S control unit
The temperature sensing unit employs
a thermistor
which
is sensitive to the change in temperature
Electrical resistance
of the thermistor decreases in
response to the temperature
rise

EXHAUST GAS SENSOR
SEF621
The exhaust gas sensor, which is built into the
exhaust manifold, monitors the density
of oxygen
in the exhaust gas It consists of a closed-end tube
made
of ceramic zirconia and other components.
Porous platinum electrodes cover the tubes inner
and outer surfaces The closed-end
of the tube IS
exposed to the exhaust gas in the exhaust mani-
fold The outer surface
of the tube contacts the ex-
haust
gas while the inner surface contacts the air

THROTTLE VALVE SWlTCl
The throttle valve switch is attached to the throttle
chamber and actuates in response
to accelerator

This switch has idle contact and full throttle con-
tact The idle contact closes when the throttle
valve
is positioned at idle and opens when it is at
any other position.
The full throttle contact
is used only for the
electronic controlled automatic transmission

FUEL INJECTOR
The
fuel injector is a small, precision solenoid
valve As the
E C C S control unit outputs an in-
lnents (Cont’d)
jection signal to each fuel injector, the coil built
into the injector pulls the needle valve back, and
fuel
is injected through the nozzle to intake mani-

width by processing signals from crank angle
sensor and air flow meter Receiving signals from
each sensor which detects various engine condi-
tions,
E C.C S control unit adds various enrich-
ments, which are pre-programmed
in the control
unit, to the basic injection amount. Thus, the op-
timum amount of fuel is injected through the
injectors.
