TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURE
Note
Step 1 under symptom is to quickly determine what system or unit may be at fault by use of the SST. (Self-Diagnosis Checker 49 H018 9A1)
1st:
Check input sensors and output solenoid valves with the
SST.
(Refer
to
page 4B—10.)

2nd:
Check other switches with the
SST.
(Refer
to
page 4B—26.)

3rd:
Check the following items:

11
Poor acceleration, hesita-
tion or lack of power
Runs rough on deceleration
Afterburn in exhaust system
Poor fuel consumption
Engine stalls or rough after hot starting
Electrical system
1) Battery condition
2) Fuses

Fuel system
1) Fuel level 2) Fuel leakage
3) Fuel filter 4) Idle speed

Engine
1) Compression 2) Overheating

Ignition system

1) Ignition spark 2) Ignition timing

Intake air system
1)
Air
cleaner element 2) Vacuum
or air
leakage 3) Vacuum hose routing
4) Accelerator cable

Others
1) Clutch slippage 2) Brake dragging

Fails emission test 4th:
Check Fuel and Emission Control Systems. (Refer
to
page 4B—8.)

IDLE-UP SYSTEM 4B
AIR BYPASS SOLENOID VALVE
Inspection of Idle-up Signal
A/C
1. Warm up the engine and run it at idle.
2. Connect a voltmeter between terminal A and
ground.
3. Turn the A/C and blower motor switches ON.
4. Check that the meter shows battery voltage.
5. If not correct, check the A/C relay, A/C switch,
blower motor switch, fuse,and wiring harness.
76G04B-048
P/S
1. Warm up the engine and run it at idle.
2. Attach a voltmeter between the terminal F and
ground.
3. Turn the steering wheel all the way to either the
right or left.
4. Check that the meter shows OV.
5. Release the steering wheel.
6. Check that the meter shows battery voltage.
7. If not correct, check the P/S pressure switch (Re-
fer to page 4B—92) and wiring harness.
76G04B-049
High altitude compensation
1. Warm up the engine and run it at idle.
2. Connect a vacuum pump to the atmospheric pres-
sure sensor.
3. Connect a voltmeter between the terminals shown
in the following table and ground.
4. Apply vacuum to the atmospheric pressure sen-
sor as shown in the table using a vacuum pump.
5. Check that the voltmeter shows OV.
76G04B-050
J

6. Release the vacuum.
7. Check that the voltmeter shows battery voltage.
8. If not correct, check the atmospheric pressure sen-
sor (Refer to page 4B—99) and wiring harness.

EGI MAIN FUSE
Inspection
Check the continuity of EGI main fuse.
MAIN RELAY
1. Check that a "clicking" sound is heard at the main
relay when turning the ignition switch ON and OFF.
2. Apply 12V and a ground to (A) and (B) terminals
of the main relay.
3. Check continuity at terminals using an ohmmeter.
