OPERATION
l The volume air flow sensor is incorporated
within the air cleaner; it functions to convert the
amount of engine air intake to pulse signals of a
frequency proportional to the amount of engine air intake, and to input those/signals to the en-
gine control module. The engine control module
then, based upon those signals, calculates the amount to fuel injection, etc.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
Hint 1:
If the engine sometimes stalls, try starting the en-
gine and shaking the volume air flow sensor har-
ness.
If the engine then stalls, incorrect or improper con-
tact of the volume air flow sensor connector is the probable cause.
Hint 2:
If, when the ignition switch is switched ON (but the
engine is not started), the volume air flow sensor
output frequency is any value other than zero, a
malfunction of the volume air flow sensor or of the
engine control module is the probable cause. Hint 3:
If idling is possible even though the volume air flow
sensor output frequency is deviated from the stand-
ard value, the cause is usually a malfunction other
than of the volume air flow sensor. l The power for the volume air flow sensor is
supplied from the multiport fuel injection relay
to the volume air flow sensor, and is grounded at the engine control module. The volume air
flow sensor, by intermitting the flow of the
5V
voltage applied from the engine control module,
produces pulse signals.
Examples:
(1) The flow of air within the volume air flow sensor is disturbed. (Air duct disconnection or clogged
air cleaner element)
(2) Incomplete combustion within a cylinder. (Malfunction of spark plugs, ignition coil, injec-
tors, compression pressure, etc.)
(3) Air is taken into the intake manifold through a leaking gasket, etc.
(4) Incomplete close contact of the EGR valve seat.

OPERATION
l The barometric-pressure sensor functions to
convert the barometric pressure to voltage, and
to input that voltage (as signals) to the engine control module.
The engine control module, based upon those signals, then corrects the amount to fuel injec-
tion, etc.
l
The 5V power supply within the engine control
module is supplied to the barometric-pressure
sensor; it passes through the circuitry within the
sensor, and is grounded at the engine control
module.
l The barometric-pressure sensor output voltage
is sent to the engine control module in propor-tion to the barometric pressure (absolute pres-
sure).

OPERATION
l The engine coolant temperature sensor func-
tions to convert the barometric pressure to vol-
tage, and to input that voltage (as signals) to the
engine control module.
The engine control module, based upon those
signals, regulates the amount ot fuel injection
and the fast-idling speed when the engine is
cold.
l The 5V power supply within the engine control
module is supplied, by way of the resistance
within the unit, to the engine coolant tempera-
ture sensor; it passes through the engine
coolant temperature sensor, which is a type ofresistor, and is grounded at the engine control
module.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
if, during engine warm-up, the fast-idling speed is
not correct, or black smoke is emitted the problem
is usually a malfunction of the engine coolant tem-
perature sensor. Note that the resistance of the engine coolant
temperature sensor decreases when the tem-
perature of the coolant increases.
l The engine coolant temperature sensor terminal
voltage becomes higher when the resistance of
the engine coolant temperature sensor in-
creases, and becomes lower when the resist-
ance decreases. Consequently, the engine
coolant temperature sensor terminal voltage va- ries in accordance with the temperature of the
coolant, becoming lower when the temperature
of the coolant increases.

(1) Improper adjustment of the basic idling speed.
(2) Deposits adhering to the ttirottle valve.
(3) Air being taken into the intake manifold due to a gasket leak, etc.
OPERATION
ISC motor position sensor is a variable resistor type,
and is integrated in the
ISC motor system. The slid-
ing pin of
ISC motor position sensor is in contact
with the end of the plunger. Therefore, as the plun- ger moves, the internal resistance of
ISC motor pos-
ition sensor varies. This leads to the variation of the (4) Improper seating of the EGR valve seat.
(5) lmcomplete combustion within a cylinder. (Mal-
function of spark plugs, ignition coil, injectors,
compression pressure, etc.)
the plunger position of the
ISC motor system, and
sends the signal to ECM. ECM processes the
ISC
motor position sensor signal, idle signal, coolant
temperature signal, load signal (A/T &
A/C) and ve-
hicle speed signal to control the opening angle of
the throttle valve and revolution speed during
en-
output voltage. ISC motor position sensor detects gine idling.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
Since idling is not controlled when ISC motor posi-
tion sensor is troubled, idling may not be evenly
maintained.
