4. Turn the ignition switch ON, but do not start the
engine for six seconds.
5. Start and warm up the engine, then run it at
2,500—3,000 rpm for three minutes in neutral.
6. Verify that no code numbers are displayed.

PRINCIPLE OF CODE CYCLE
Malfunction codes are determined as shown below
1. Code cycle break
The time between malfunction code cycles is 4.0 sec (the time the light is off).

3. First digit of malfunction code (tens position)
The digit in the tens position of the malfunction code represents the number of times the buzzer
is on 1.2 sec during one cycle.
It should also be noted that the light goes off for 1.6 sec. between the long and short pulses of
the buzzer.

Caution
a) If there is more than one failure present, the lowest number malfunction code is dis-
played first, the remaining codes are displayed sequentially.
b) After repairing a failure, turn off the ignition switch and disconnect the negative battery
cable and depress the brake pedal for at least 2 seconds to erase the memory of a mal-
function code.
