INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT: This diagnostic chart is based on the premise that the engine is being cranked under normal conditions.
If the engine does not crank, proceed to the matrix chart of problem symptoms on page EG±408.
Check output condition of diagnostic trouble code 43.
Check and replace engine control module.
Setting the test mode.
(1) Turn ignition switch OFF.
(2) Connect terminals TE2 and E1 of DLC2.
(3) Turn ignition switch ON.
(Don't start the engine)
(4) Connect terminals TE1 and E1 of DLC2.
Check if code ª43º is output by the malfunction
indicator lamp.
Code ª43º is output.
Start the engine.
Check if code ª43º disappears.
Code ª43º is not output.
Proceed to next circuit inspection shown on ma-
trix chart (See page
EG±408).
Check for open in harness and connector between engine control module
and starter relay (See page
IN±30).
Repair or replace harness or connector.
Check and replace engine control module.

DTC 52 53 55 Knock Sensor Circuit
Knock sensors are fitted one each to the front and rear of the left side of the cylinder block to detect
engine knocking. This sensor contains a piezoelectric element which generates a voltage when it be-
comes deformed, which occurs when the cylinder block vibrates due to knocking. If engine knocking
occurs, ignition timing is retarded to suppress it.

If the ECM detects the above diagnosis conditions, it operates the fail safe function in which the correc-
tive retard angle value is set to the maximum value.
DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DETECTION DRIVING PATTERN
Purpose of the driving pattern.
(a) To simulate diagnostic trouble code detecting condition after diagnostic trouble code is recorded.
(b) To check that the malfunction is corrected when the repair is completed by confirming that diag±
nostic trouble code is no longer detected.
(1) Start the engine and warm up.
(2) Idle the engine for 3 min.
(3) With the A/C ON, race the engine quickly to 5,000 rpm 3 times.
(Rapidly depress the accelerator pedal and suddenly release it.)
HINT: If a malfunction exists, the malfunction indicator lamp will light up when sudden racing is
performed.
NOTICE: If the conditions in this test are not strictly followed, detection of the malfunction
will not be possible. EG±450

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT: If diagnostic trouble code 52 is displayed, check No.1 knock sensor (for front side) circuit.
If diagnostic trouble code 55 is displayed, check No.2 knock sensor (for rear side) circuit.
If diagnostic trouble code 53 is displayed, replace engine control module.

Check continuity between terminals KNK1, KNK2 of engine control module
connector and body ground.

INSPECTION USING OSCILLOSCOPE

With the engine racing (4,000 rpm) measure wave±
form between terminals KNK1, KNK2 of engine control
module and body ground.
HINT: The correct waveform is as shown.

Spread the time on the horizontal axis, and confirm that
the period of the wave is 123

(Normal mode vibration frequency of knock sen±
sor: 8.1 KHz).
HINT: If normal mode vibration frequency is not 8.1 KHz,
the sensor is malfunctioning.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The EGR system is designed to recirculate the exhaust gas, controlled according to the driving condi-
tions, back into the intake air±fuel mixture. It helps to slow down combustion in the cylinder and thus
lower the combustion temperature which, in turn, reduces the amount of NOx emission. The amount
of EGR is regulated by the EGR vacuum modulator according to the load.
If even one of the following conditions is fulfilled,
the VSV is turned ON by a signal from the ECM.
This results in atmospheric air acting on the EGR
valve, closing the EGR valve and shutting off the
exhaust gas (EGR cut±OFF).

Engine coolant temp. below 50°C (122°F)
