INTRODUCTION
Pin voltage charts are supplied to reduce diagnostic time.
Checking pin voltages at the ECU determines whether it's receiving and
transmitting proper voltage signals. Charts may also help determine if
ECU harness is shorted or opened.
NOTE: Voltage readings may vary slightly due to battery condition
or charging rate. All voltage tests should be performed with
a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm
input impedance, unless stated otherwise in testing
procedure.Fig. 1: Typical ECU Terminal Pin Connector

* Hot Weather, Stop-And-Go Driving
* Extensive Idling
CAMSHAFT TIMING BELT
CAUTION: Failure to replace a faulty camshaft timing belt may result
in serious engine damage.
The condition of camshaft drive belts should always be
checked on vehicles which have more than 50,000 miles. Although some
manufacturers do not recommend belt replacement at a specified
mileage, others require it at 60,000-100,000 miles. A camshaft drive
belt failure may cause extensive damage to internal engine components
on most engines, although some designs do not allow piston-to-valve
contact. These designs are often called "Free Wheeling".
Many manufacturers changed their maintenance and warranty
schedules in the mid-1980's to reflect timing belt inspection and/or
replacement at 50,000-60,000 miles. Most service interval schedules in
this manual reflect these changes.
Belts or components should be inspected and replaced if any
of the following conditions exist:
* Cracks Or Tears In Belt Surface
* Missing, Damaged, Cracked Or Rounded Teeth
* Oil Contamination
* Damaged Or Faulty Tensioners
* Incorrect Tension Adjustment
Inspect camshaft timing belt condition every 20,000 miles.
Replace belt as necessary.
