QUICK START SYSTEM (QSS) 5
SYSTEM OPERATION
The Quick Start System has three functions: Pre-heating, Chopping, and After-glow; as used in
the previous model. Each function operates as follows:
1. Pre-heating After ignition switch is turned to ON position, current flows to glow plug for 6
sec.
2. Chopping While engine switch is in START position, current flows to glow plug con-
tinuously.
3. After-glow (coolant temperature below 30°C (86°F):
a) When engine switch is kept in ON position after pre-heating, current flows to
glow plug continuously for 15 sec.
b) After engine has stared, current flows to glow plug continuously for 15 sec.
Indicator lamp: Indicator illuminates for 3 sec. after ignition is ON position.
When ignition switch is ON-START-ON position
When ignition switch is kept in ON position

Preliminary Checks
When troubleshooting, check below first.
1. Main fuse
2. Fuses
3. Connectors
4. Ground circuit
5. Wiring harness
Condition Cause
Glow plug relay does not close. 1. Faulty glow plug relay 2. Faulty control unit internal circuit
3. Poor contact or disconnection between control unit terminal ©and harness
4. Faulty START harness (open circuit at ©terminal in control unit) 5. Poor contact or disconnection between glow plug relay ter-minal and harness 6. Faulty glow plug
Glow plug relay does not open 1. Faulty glow plug relay 2. Faulty control unit internal circuit
Glow plug relay does not repeat ON and OFF. 1. Faulty poor contact of engine switch 2. Poor contact or disconnection of starter harness 3. Faulty control unit internal circuit
Glow plug relay does not repeat ON and OFF within 15 sec. after turning the engine switch ON. 1. Faulty water temperature switch 2. Faulty control unit internal circuit
3. Faulty glow plug relay
4. Poor contact or disconnection between control unit © and water temperature switch

CONTROL UNIT
Inspection
1. Connect a voltmeter to the control unit as shown
in the figure.
2. Check the voltage of the terminal.
3. Replace the control unit if necessary.
Caution
If the proper voltage is not indicated on the
voltmeter, check all wiring connections and
finally, check that component.

Glow plug relay GLOW PLUG RELAY
Inspection
1. As shown in the figure, connect the battery and
an ohmmeter to the relay.
2.
If
the ohmmeter shows continuity when the battery
is connected, and no continuity when the battery
is disconnected, the relay is good.
3. Replace the relay if it fails this test.
4BG05X-123
GLOW PLUG
Inspection
1. Check the continuity between the positive termi-
nal of the glow plug and cylinder head with a cir-
cuit tester.
2. If there is no continuity, replace the glow plug.
4BG05X-121
Removal
Remove in the following order:
1. Glow plug connector attaching nut.
2. Glow plug connector.
3. Glow plug
Installation
Install the glow plug, reverse order of removal.

WATER TEMPERATURE SWITCH
Removal
Remove the water temperature switch from the
radiator.
Installation
Install in the reverse order of removal.
Inspection
1. Place the water temperature switch in water with
a thermometer and heat the water gradually.
2. Check the temperature at which continuity exists
between the terminals.
3. Replace the switch, if necessary.
Specified temperature: above 28—32°C
(82—90°F)
