2. CONTROL SYSTEM
*EFI (ELECTRONIC FUEL INJECTION) SYSTEM
THE EFI SYSTEM MONITORS THE ENGINE CONDITION THROUGH THE SIGNALS INPUT FROM EACH SENSOR (IN\
PUT SIGNALS
FROM (1) TO (13) ETC.) TO THE ECU. THE BEST FUEL INJECTION TIMING IS DECIDED BASED ON THIS DATA AND THE PROGRAM
MEMORIZED BY THE ECU, AND THE CONTROL SIGNAL IS OUTPUT TO TERMINALS #10, #20, #30, #40, #50 AND #60 OF THE ECU TO
OPERATE THE INJECTOR. (INJECT THE FUEL). THE EFI SYSTEM PRODUCES CONTROL OF FUEL INJECTION OPERATION BY THE
ECU IN RESPONSE TO THE DRIVING CONDITIONS.
* ESA (ELECTRONIC SPARK ADVANCE) SYSTEM
THE ESA SYSTEM MONITORS THE ENGINE CONDITION THROUGH THE SIGNALS INPUT TO THE ECU FROM EACH SENSOR (INPUT
SIGNALS FROM (1), (2), (4) TO (13) ETC.). THE BEST IGNITION TIMING IS DECIDED ACCORDING TO THIS DATA AND THE
MEMORIZED DATA IN THE ECU AND THE CONTROL SIGNAL IS OUTPUT TO TERMINAL IGT THIS SIGNAL CONTROLS THE IGNITER
TO PROVIDE THE BEST IGNITION TIMING FOR THE DRIVING CONDITIONS.
* OXYGEN SENSOR HEATER CONTROL SYSTEM (USA SPEC.)
THE OXYGEN SENSOR HEATER CONTROL SYSTEM TURNS THE HEATER ON WHEN THE INTAKE AIR VOLUME IS LOW (TEMP. OF
EXHAUST EMISSIONS IS LOW), AND WARMS UP THE OXYGEN SENSOR TO IMPROVE DETECTION PERFORMANCE OF THE
SENSOR.
THE ECU EVALUATES THE SIGNALS FROM EACH SENSOR (INPUT SIGNALS FROM (1), (2), (4)\
, (9) TO (11) ETC.,) AND OUTPUTS
CURRENT TO TERMINAL HT TO CONTROL THE HEATER.
* ISC (IDLE SPEED CONTROL) SYSTEM
THE ISC SYSTEM (STEP MOTOR TYPE) INCREASES THE RPM AND PROVIDES IDLING STABILITY FOR FAST IDLE±UP WHEN THE
ENGINE IS COLD, AND WHEN THE IDLE SPEED HAS DROPPED DUE TO ELECTRICAL LOAD AND SO ON. THE ECU EVALUATES
THE SIGNALS FROM EACH SENSOR (INPUT SIGNALS FROM (1), (4), (5), (8)\
, (9), (11) ETC.), OUTPUTS CURRENT TO TERMINAL ISC1,
ISC2, ISC3 AND ISC4 TO CONTROL ISC VALVE.
* EGR CONTROL SYSTEM
THE EGR CONTROL SYSTEM DETECTS THE SIGNAL FROM EACH SENSOR (INPUT SIGNALS \
FROM (1), (4), (9), (10) ETC.), AND
OUTPUTS CURRENT TO TERMINAL EGR TO CONTROL THE EGR VALVE.
* FUEL PUMP CONTROL SYSTEM
THE COMPUTER OUTPUTS CURRENT TO TERMINAL FPC AND CONTROLS THE FUEL PUMP ECU AND FUEL PUMP DRIVE SPEED
IN RESPONSE TO CONDITIONS.
* ACIS (ACOUSTIC CONTROL INDUCTION SYSTEM)
ACIS INCLUDES A VALVE IN THE BULKHEAD SEPARATING THE SURGE TANK INTO TWO PARTS. THIS VALE IS OPENED AND
CLOSED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DRIVING CONDITIONS TO CONTROL THE INTAKE MANIFOLD LENGTH IN TWO STAGES FOR
INCREASED ENGINE OUTPUT IN ALL RANGES FROM LOW TO HIGH SPEEDS.
THE ECU JUDGES THE VEHICLE SPEED BY THE SIGNALS ((4), (5)) FROM EACH \
SENSOR AND OUTPUTS SIGNALS TO THE
TERMINAL ACIS TO CONTROL THE VSV (FOR OPENING AND CLOSING THE INTAKE CONTROL VALVE).
3. DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
WITH THE DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM, WHEN THERE IS A MALFUNCTION IN THE ECU SIGNAL\
SYSTEM, THE MALFUNCTIONING SYSTEM IS
RECORDED IN THE MEMORY. THE MALFUNCTIONING SYSTEM CAN BE FOUND BY READING THE CODE DISPLAYED BY THE
CHECKING ENGINE WARNING LIGHT.
4. FAIL±SAFE SYSTEM
WHEN A MALFUNCTION HAS OCCURRED IN ANY SYSTEM, IF THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OF \
ENGINE TROUBLE BEING CAUSED BY
CONTINUED CONTROL BASED ON THE SIGNALS FROM THAT SYSTEM, THE FAIL±SAFE SYSTEM EITHER CONTROLS THE SYSTEM
BY USING DATA (STANDARD VALUES) RECORDED IN THE ECU MEMORY OR ELSE STOPS THE ENGINE.
NOTE: THE SPECIFICATION DESCRIPTIONS ªUSA SPEC.º AND ªEXC. USA SPEC.º USED IN THIS SECTION INDICATE THE
FOLLOWING SPECIFICATIONS.
USA SPEC. : USA (50 STATES) SPECIFICATIONS
EXC. USA SPEC. : USA (EXCEPT CALIFORNIA) AND CANADIAN SPECIFICATIONS.

ABBREVIATIONS
DISCONNECTION AND CONNECTION OF BOLT
TYPE CONNECTORS
For engine and ECT ECU in this vehicle, connectors are used
which require a bolt built into the connector to be screwed down to
securely connect the connector.
1. Disconnect the connectorAfter completely loosening the bolt, the two parts of the
connector can be separated.
NOTICE:
Do not pull the wire harness when disconnecting the
connector.
2. Connect the connector
NOTICE:
Before connecting the connector, always check that the
terminals are not bent or damaged.
(a) Match the guide section of the male connectorcorrectly with the female connector, then press them
together.
(b) Tighten the bolt. Make sure the connectors are completely connected,
by tightening the bolt until there is a clearance of less
than 1 mm (0.04 in.) between the bottom of male
connector and the end of female connector.
ABBREVIATIONS
The following abbreviations are used in this manual.
A/C = Air Conditioning O/D = Overdrive
ABS = Anti±Lock Brake System R/B = Relay Block
A/T = Automatic Transmission RH = Right±Hand
CB = Circuit Breaker SRS = Supplement Restraint System
COMB. = Combination SW = Switch
ECT = Electronic Controlled Transmission TDCL = Total Diagnostic Communication Link
ECU = Electronic Control Unit TEMP. = Temperature
EGR = Exhaust Gas Recirculation TRAC = Traction Control
FL = Fusible Link VSV = Vacuum Switching Valve
ISC = Idle Speed Control W/ = With
J/B = Junction Block W/O = Without
LH = Left-Hand
* The titles given inside the components are the names of the terminals (ter\
minal codes) and are not treatedas being abbreviations.
