OPERATIONl
Turn ignition switch to .“ON”position, and batteryvoltage will be applied to primary winding of
ignition coil.l
When crankshaft position sensor and camshaft
position sensor signal is input to engine control
module, engine control module makes ON-OFF
control of power transistors one by one.l When power transistor is turned on, current
flows from ignition coil (primary winding) to
ground through power transistor.l When power transistor A is turned from ON
to OFF, the spark plugs of No. 1 and No. 4
cylinders spark. Turning of power transistor B
from ON to OFF will produce sparking in spark
plugs of No. 2 and No. 5 cylinders. Furthermore,
when power transistor C is turned from ON toOFF, sparking is produced in spark plugs of
No. 3 and No. 6 cylinders.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS1. Engine cranks, but does not start.
(1) Spark is insufficient or does not occur at
all (on spark plug).l Check ignition coil.
l Check camshaft position sensor and
crankshaft position sensorl Check power transistor.

(1)insert paper clip into the engine revolution speed detection
terminal provided in the engine compartment, and connectthe engine tachometer to the inserted paper clip.
Caution
As the tachometer is negative grounded, do not con-
nect battery conversely to prevent damaging transis-tor and diode.
NOTE
For tachometer inspection, use of a fluxmeter-type engine
tachometer is recommended. (Because a fluxmeter onlyneeds to be clipped to the high tension cable.)
(2) Connect the engine tachometer and compare the engine
tachometer and tachometer readings. Replace tachometer
if difference is excessive.

one-third of the actual speed. When the engine speed
is measured, make sure that the engine tachometeris placed in the

OPERATION light>l
Battery voltage is always applied to the dome light. When the dome light switch is turned to “ON”,
the dome light will remain lit. After either door is opened if the dome light switch is at “DOOR” position,the dome light will come on.
lWith the dome light turned on (with the ignition switch in the OFF position and with the dome light
switch in the DOOR position), close all doors, and the timer circuit in the ETACS unit will be activatedto gradually vary the voltage for approx. 6 seconds owing to the duty control, and the voltage will
be output to transistor Tr. Since the voltage applied to the dome light gradually decreases, the dome
light will be dimmed.lIf the ignition switch is turned to “ON” while the dome light is lit (while the timer is activated), the
timer circuit will be opened to turn “OFF” transistor Tr. This will immediately turn off the dome light
without dimming. light>-lBattery voltage is always applied to the foot lights and ignition key illumination light.
With the ignition switch in the OFF position, open any door, and all lights will come on.
l
With all lights turned on (with the ignition switch in the OFF position), close all doors, and the timercircuit inside the ETACS unit will operate in the same manner as the dome light to dim all lights.
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON position with all lights turned on (with the timer in operation),the same operation as the dome light will take place.

A-2Noise appears at certain places when traveling (FM).Do the following measures eliminate the noise?
YeslChange to a different station with a strong signal to boost resistance to interference.l Suppress high tones to reduce noise.+3cll Extend antenna completely. (Whip antenna)
No
tIf there is more noise than other radios, find out the noise conditions and the name and frequency
of the receiving stations from the user, and consult with the service center.
NOTE
About FM waves:
FM waves have the same properties as light, and
can be deflected and blocked. Wave reception isnot possible in the shadow of obstructions such
as buildings or mountains.
1.The signal becomes weak as the distance from
the station’s transmission antenna increases.
Although this may vary according to the signal
strength of the transmitting station and interven-ing geographical formations or buildings, the
area of good reception is approx.
20-25 km
(12-l 6 miles) for stereo reception, and 30-40km (19-25 miles) for monaural reception.
2. The signal becomes weak. when an area of
shadow from the transmitting antenna (places
where there are obstructions such as mountains
3.
4.
or buildings between the antenna and.the car),
and noise will appear. and gives a steady buzzing noise.>
If a direct signal hits the antenna at the same
time as a signal reflected by obstructions such
as mountains or buildings, interference of the
two signals will generate noise. During traveling,
noise will appear each time the vehicle’s anten-
na passes through this kind of obstructed area.The strength and interval of the noise varies
according to the signal strength and the condi-tions of deflection.
noise, and is a repetitious buzzing.>Since FM stereo transmission and reception
has a weaker field than monaural, it is often
accompanied by a hissing noise.FM Broadcast Good Reception Areas
