SYMPTOM ± HIGH ENGINE IDLE SPEED (NO DROP)
HINT (3S±FE): Disconnecting the battery will cause the idling speed data in the ISC to be returned to the initial
idling speed, causing the idling speed to rise above 700 rpm. should this happen, either carry out a driving test,
including stop±go several times at a speed above 10 km/h, or start the engine, idle for 30 seconds and then turn
the engine off repeatedly. By doing this, idle data will be stored in the ISC and the idle rpm will be at specified
value.

DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION
The ECU contains a built±in, self±diagnosis system which de-
tects troubles within the engine signal network and then flashed
a
warning on the ºCHECKº engine warning light on the instrument
panel flashes.
By analyzing various signals shown in the tables (See pages FI±
25 or 27) the ECU detects system malfunctions which are re-
lated to the various operating parameter sensors or actuator.
The ECU
stores the failure code associated with the detected failure until
the diagnosis system is cleared by removing the EFI fuse with
the ignition switch OFF.
A ºCHECKº engine warning light on the instrument panel informs
the driver that a malfunction has been detected.
The light goes oft automatically when the malfunction has been
cleared.
OUTPUT OF DIAGNOSTIC CODES
To obtain an output of diagnostic codes, proceed as follow:
1. Initial conditions
(a) Battery voltage 11 V or more
(b) Throttle valve fully closed (throttle position sensor IDL
points closed)
(e) Transmission in neutral position
(d) Accessories switched OFF
(e) Engine at normal operating temperature
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON. Do not start the engine.
3. Using SST, connect terminals TE1 and E1 of the check con-
nector.
SST 09843±18020
ºCHECKº ENGINE WARNING LIGHT
CHECK
1. The ºCHECKº engine warning light will come on when the igni-
tion switch is placed at ON and the engine is not
running.
2. When the engine is started, the ºCHECKº engine warning light
should go off.
If the light remains on, the diagnosis system has detected a
malfunction or abnormality in the system.
