MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHTAmong the self-diagnosis items, a malfunction indicator light
comes on to notify the driver of the emission control items
when an irregularity is detected.
However, when an irregular signal returns to normal and the
engine control unit judges that it has returned to normal. the
malfunction indicator light goes out.
Moreover, when the ignition switch is turned off, the light goes
out. Even if the ignition switch is turned on again, the light doesnot come on until the irregularity is detected.
Here, immediately after the ignition switch is turn on, the
malfunction indicator light is lit for 5 seconds to indicate that
the malfunction indicator light operates normally.

When turning on the ignition switch, check that the light comes
on.
NOTEIf the light does not come on, check the harness and light for
breakage.

SELF-DIAGNOSIS14-73
N14PAAEThe engine control unit monitors the input/output signals
(some signals at all times and the others under specified
conditions) of the engine control unit.
When it is noticed that an irregularity has continued for a
specified time or longer from when the irregular signal is
initially monitored. Passing a certain number, the engine
control unit judges that an irregularity has occurred, memorizesthe malfunction code, and outputs the signal to the
self-diagnosis output terminal.
There are 14 diagnosis items, and the diagnosis results can beread out with a voltmeter.
Moreover, since memorization of the malfunction codes is
backed up directly by the battery, the diagnosis results are
memorized even if the ignition key is turned off. The malfunc-
tion codes will, however, be erased when the battery terminal
or the engine control unit connector is disconnected.
CautionIf the sensor connector is disconnected with the ignition
switch turned on, the malfunction code is memorized. In
this case, disconnect the battery terminal
(-) for 10seconds or more, and the diagnosis memory will be
erased.The 14 diagnosis items are provided as follows, and if plural
items are activated, they are all indicated sequentially from thesmallest code number.

CHECK PROCEDURE (SELF-DIAGNOSIS)Precautions for OperationN14PCAE2(1) When battery voltage is low, no detection of failure is
possible. Be sure to check the battery for voltage and otherconditions before starting the test.
(2) Diagnosis item is erased if the battery or the engine controlunit connector is disconnected. Do not disconnect the
battery before the diagnosis result is completely read.
(3) After check and correction are over, disconnect ground
cable for 10 seconds or more from negative terminal of
battery and connect it again to make sure that failure code
is erased.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE - USING VOLTMETERN14PCAGZ
(1) Connect an analogue voltmeter to the self-diagnosis con-
nector.(2) Turn ignition switch to ON, and indication of engine control
unit memory contents will immediately start. If the system
is in normal condition, pointer of voltmeter indicates normalpattern. If any abnormality is in memory, the pointer of
voltmeter will deflect, indicating abnormal item as de-
scribed in “Diagnosis Chart”.
After recording the abnormal item, check and repair each
part according to the check items in “Diagnosis Chart”.
(3) If the defective parts have been repaired, disconnect the
negative terminal of battery cable for
10 seconds or more
and connect it again to make sure that the abnormal code
has been erased.
