NOTEWhen the vehicle is new [within initial operation of about 500 km (300 miles)], the stepper motor steps may be about 30steps more than standard.
CautionWhen the selector lever is shifted to the “D”range, the brakes must be used to prevent the vehicle frommovingforward.

Using Oscilloscope(1) Connect the probe to each oscilloscope pick-up point as
shown in the circuit diagram.
(2) Start the engine.
(3) When the air conditioner switch is turned on, the idling
speed increases to operate the idle speed control. Check
the instantaneous waveform.
NOTEKeep in mind that the waveform can be observed only
when idle speed control is in operation.

ACTUATOR I’NSPECTIONChecking the Operation Sound
(1)Check that the operation sound of the stepper motor can be
heard after the ignition is switched ON (but without starting
the motor).
(2) If the operation sound cannot be heard, check the stepper
motor’s activation circuit.
If the circuit is normal, it is probable that there is a
malfunction of the stepper motor or of the engine control
unit.

OPERATION
lWhen the power transistor unit A is turned on by the signal from the engine control unit, primary current
flows to the ignition coil A. When the power transistor unit A is turned off, the primaty current is shut off
and a high voltage is induced in the secondary coil A, causing the ignition plugs of No. 1 and No. 4
cylinders to spark. When the
power transistor unit B is turned off, the ignition plugs of No. 2 and No. 3
cylinders spark.
L
lWhen the engine control unit turns off the transistor in the unit, the battery voltage in the unit is applied to
the power transistor unit to turn it on. When the engine control unit turns on the transistor in the unit, the
power transistor unit is turned off.

lThe purge control solenoid valve is an ON-OFF type one which controls introduction of purge air from the
canister into the intake air plenum.
lThe battery power is supplied to the purge control solenoid valve through the control relay. When the
engine control unit turns ON the power transistor in the unit, current flows to the coil, introducing purge
air.

OPERATION
lThe EGR control solenoid valve is a duty control type solenoid valve. It makes control by leaking EGR valve
operating negative pressure to the throttle body A port.
lPower supply from the battery is sent through the control relay to the EGR control solenoid valve. When
the engine control unit turns off the power transistor inside the unit, current no more flows through the
coil and EGR valve operating negative pressure leaks.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTIf the results of EGR control solenoid valve on-vehicle and off-vehicle inspections are normal but the
self-diagnosis code for EGR system failure is displayed, check the EGR valve, vacuum hose and EGR passage
for blocking.
