28. Install the transmission mount and two trans-
mission housing mounting bolts.
29. Install the starter motor and connect the starter
motor cables.NOTE: When installing the starter motor cable,
make sure that the crimped side of the ring ter-
minals facing out (see section 23).
30. Install the transmission ground cable and jumper
connector, and connect the back-up light switch,

Troubleshooting Procedures
Under normal conditions, the EPS indicator light in the gauge assembly comes on when the ignition switch is turned
to the ON position, then goes off after the engine is started. This indicates that the bulb and its circuits are operating
correctly.
EPS INDICATOR LIGHT
When the EPS control unit senses an abnormality in the system, the control unit memorizes the problem, the EPS indica-
tor light blinks at equal intervals, and the power steering assist is turned off.
When the EPS indicator light has been reported on, connect the two terminals of the service check connector with a
jumper wire. Then turn on the ignition switch and observe the blinking frequency.

TCS Indicator Light
Temporary Driving Conditions:
1. The TCS indicator light will come on and the control unit memorizes the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) under cer-
tain temporary conditions:
2. If the TCS indicator light does not come back on after correcting the tire or tire pressure problem, the TCS system is
OK.
NOTE: Remove the ABS 2.3 (20 A) fuse for at least 3 seconds to clear the DTC from the TCS control unit memory.
TCS Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Indication: 1. Stop the engine.
2. Turn the ignition switch on and confirm that the TCS indicator light comes on.
3. Turn the ignition switch off.
4. Connect the two terminals of the Service Check Connector with a jumper wire.
5. Turn the ignition switch on, but do not start the engine.6. Record the blinking frequency of the TCS indicator light. The blinking frequency indicates the DTC. Long blinks in- dicate the main code: short blinks indicate the sub-code.
7. Refer to the Troubleshooting Guide (page 19-84) for repair information. The spare tire is installed, or a tire of the improper size is installed.
The tire pressures are not correct.

The TCS control unit has three memory registers. When a problem occurs, the control unit stores the Diagnostic Trou-
ble Code (DTC) in the first memory register. If another problem occurs, or the same problem occurs again, the control
unit moves the first code to the next memory register and stores the second code in the first register. If there's a thirdproblem occurrence, the two existing code are moved up one register and the third code is stored in the first register.
If problems continue to occur, the oldest code is moved out of the last register and lost, and the most recent code is
stored in the first register. The TCS indicator light will not come on again after the engine starts unless another problem occurence is detected.
However, there will still be a code stored in the control unit's memory.
After the repair is completed, disconnect the jumper wire from the Service Check connector and remove the ABS 2.3
fuse (20 A) from the main relay box for at least 3 seconds to erase the control unit's memory. The control unit's memory is erased if the connector is disconnected from the control unit, or if the control unit is
removed from the car.

Ignition Timing Inspection and Setting
1. Start the engine and allow it to warm up (radiator
fan comes on).
2. Pull out the service check connector located under the middle of the dash. Connector the BLU andGRN/WHT terminals with a jumper wire (see sec-
tion 11).
3. Check the idle speed (see page 23-92).
4. Connect a timing light to the service loop; while the
engine idles, point the light toward the pointer on
the timing belt cover.

5. If necessary, adjust ignition timing to the following specifications:
Ignition Timing: 15° ±2° BTDC (RED mark)
Idle Speed (rpm):

6. If necessary, adjust the ignition timing, adjust by turning the adjusting screw on the ignition timingadjuster in the control box.
Remove the control box cover. 7. Remove the jumper wire from the service check
connector.
8. After adjusting, reinstall the cover on the ignition timing adjuster with new rivets.ADJUSTING SCREW

Troubleshooting Guide
NOTE: Across each row in the chart, the systems that could be sources of a symptom are ranked in the order they should be inspected starting with . Find the symptom in the left column, read across to the most likely source, then
refer to the page listed at the top of that column. If inspection shows the system is OK, try the next most likely system
,
etc.
* If codes other than those listed above are indicated, count the number of blinks again. If the indicator is in fact blinking these codes, substitute a known-good ECU and recheck. If the indication goes away, replace the original ECU. : If the Check Engine light is on while the engine is running, jump the service check connector. If no code is
displayed (Check Engine light stays on steady), the back-up system is in operation.
Substitute a known-good ECU and recheck. If the indication goes away, replace the original ECU.
