INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
wIf diagnostic trouble code 41 is displayed, check throttle position sensor circuit. If diagnostic trouble code
47 is displayed, check sub±throttle position sensor circuit.
wIf diagnostic trouble code º22º (engine coolant temperature sensor circuit), º24º (intake air temperature
sensor circuit) and º41º (throttle position sensor circuit) are output simultaneously. E2 (sensor ground) may
be open.
(See page EG±505)
(See page EG±510)
(See page EG±292)
Check voltage between terminals VTA1, 2, IDL1, 2 and E2 of engine control
module connector.
The voltage should increase steadily in proportion
to the throttle valve opening angle.
(1) Connect SST (check harness ªAº).
(See page EG±510)
SST 09990±01000
(2) Turn ignition switch ON.
(3) For throttle position sensor, disconnect the vacuum
hose from the throttle body, then apply vacuum to
the throttle opener.
(See page EG±292)
(4) For sub±throttle position sensor, remove intake air
duct and disconnect sub±throttle valve step motor
connector.
Measure voltage between terminals VTA1, 2, IDL1,
2 and E2 of engine control module connector when
the (sub±) throttle valve is opened gradually from
the closed condition.
Check for intermittent problems.

DTC 42 No. 1 Vehicle Speed Sensor Signal Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The No.1 vehicle speed sensor outputs a 4±pulse signal for every revolution of the rotor shaft, which
is rotated by the transmission output shaft via the driven gear. After this signal is converted into a more
precise rectangular waveform by the waveform shaping circuit inside the odometer and trip meter, it is
then transmitted to the engine control module. The ECM determines the vehicle speed based on the
frequency of these pulse signals.

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 NO
x emission. The amount
of EGR is regulated by the EGR vacuum modulator according to the engine load.
If even one of the following conditions is fulfilled,
the VSV is turned ON by a signal from the ECM.
This resists 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)

Light engine load (amount of intake air very
small)

more
(b) EGR operation possible (Example A/T in
3rd speed (5th for M/T), A/C ON, 96 km/h
(60 mph), Flat road)
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 diagnos±
tic trouble code is no longer detected.

VSV Circuit for Fuel Pressure Control
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The ECM turns on a VSV (Vacuum Switching
Valve) to draw air into the diaphragm chamber
of the pressure regulator if it detects that the
temperature of the engine coolant is too high
during engine starting.
The air drawn into the chamber increases the
fuel pressure to prevent fuel vapor lock at high
engine temperature in order to help the en-
gine start when it is warm.
Fuel pressure control ends approx. 120 sec.
after the engine is started.
