OPERATION
l When the ignition power transistor unit is
switched ON by the signals from the engine
control module, the primary current of the igni-
tion coil will flow. When the ignition power tran-
sistor unit is switched OFF, the primary current
flow is interrupted, and high voltage is produced
at the secondary coil.
l When the engine control module switches OFF
INSPECTION
the power transistor within the unit, the battery
voltage within the unit is applied to the ignition
power transistor unit, and the ignition power
transistor unit is switched ON. In addition, the power transistor unit is switched OFF when the
engine control module switches ON the power
transistor within the unit.

ENGINE/MALFUNCTION INDICATOR
Among the on-board diagnostic items, a check engine/mal-
function indicator lamp comes on to notify the driver
of the
emission control items when an irregurality is detected. However, when an irregular signal returns to normal and the
engine control module judges that it has returned to normal,
the check engine/malfunction indicator lamp goes out. Moreover, when the ignition switch is turned off, the light goes
Check engine/malfunctionout. Even if the ignition switch is turned on again, the light doesindicator lamp68A.0093not come on until the irregularity is detected.
Here, immediately after the ignition switch is turn on, the
check engine/malfunction indicator lamp is lit for 5 seconds to indicate that the check engine/malfunction indicator lamp op-
erates normally.
ITEMS INDICATED BY THE CHECK ENGINE/
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP
Engine control module
Oxygen sensor
Volume air flow sensor
Intake air temperature sensor
Throttle position sensor
Engine coolant temperature sensor
Crankshaft position sensor Camshaft position sensor
Barometric pressure sensor
Ignition timing adjustment signal
Injector

Caution
Check engine/malfunction indicator lamp will come on
even when terminal for ignition timing adjustment is short-circuited. Therefore, it is not abnormal that the
light comes on even when terminal for ignition timing
adjustment is short-circuited at the time of ignition tim-
ing adjustment.

P
INSPECTION
(1) Check to be sure, when the ignition switch is set to the “ON” position, that the lamp illuminates for about five
seconds and then switches OFF.
(2) If the lamp does not illuminate, check for damage or dis- connection of the harness, or for a blown fuse or a failedlight bulb.

SERVICE ADJUSTMENT
PROCEDURES
CURB IDLE SPEED INSPECTIONhll3MAE
(1) The vehicle should be prepared as follows before th
e
inspection.
lEngine coolant temperature: 85-95°C (185-203°F)
l Lights, electric cooling fan and accessories: OFF
l Transaxle: Neutral (P for vehicles with an automatic
transaxle)
(2) Connect a tachometer.
NOTE
Refer to
P.13-134 for information concerning connection Of
a tachometer.
(3) Set a timing light in position.
(4) Ground the terminal for adjustment of ignition timing.
(5) Start the engine and let it idle.
(6) Check whether or not the ignition timing is the standard
value; if not, adjust.
Standard value:
5”BTDC f 2”
(7) Stop grounding the terminal for adjustment of ignition timing.
(8) Let the engine idle for two minutes.
(9) Check the idling rpm.
Curb idle speed: 700
31100 rpm
NOTE
The idling rpm is automatically regulated by the idle aircontrol system.
(lO)lf not within the standard value range, refer to the CHECK
CHART CLASSIFIED BY PROBLEM SYMPTOMS and check
