INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
wIf diagnostic trouble code 41 is displayed, check throttle position sensor circuit. If diagnostic trouble code
47 is displayed, check sub±throttle position sensor circuit.
wIf diagnostic trouble code º22º (engine coolant temperature sensor circuit), º24º (intake air temperature
sensor circuit) and º41º (throttle position sensor circuit) are output simultaneously. E2 (sensor ground) may
be open.
(See page EG±505)
(See page EG±510)
(See page EG±292)
Check voltage between terminals VTA1, 2, IDL1, 2 and E2 of engine control
module connector.
The voltage should increase steadily in proportion
to the throttle valve opening angle.
(1) Connect SST (check harness ªAº).
(See page EG±510)
SST 09990±01000
(2) Turn ignition switch ON.
(3) For throttle position sensor, disconnect the vacuum
hose from the throttle body, then apply vacuum to
the throttle opener.
(See page EG±292)
(4) For sub±throttle position sensor, remove intake air
duct and disconnect sub±throttle valve step motor
connector.
Measure voltage between terminals VTA1, 2, IDL1,
2 and E2 of engine control module connector when
the (sub±) throttle valve is opened gradually from
the closed condition.
Check for intermittent problems.

DTC 43 Starter Signal Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
When the engine is being cranked, the intake air flow is slow, so fuel vaporization is poor. A rich mixture is there-
fore necessary in order to achieve good startability. While the engine is being cranked, the battery positive volt-
age is applied to terminal STA of the ECM. The starter signal is mainly used to increase the fuel injection volume
for the starting injection control and after±start injection control.
DTC No.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT: This diagnostic chart is based on the premise that the engine is being cranked under normal conditions.
If the engine does not crank, proceed to the matrix chart of problem symptoms on page EG±514.
(See page EG±514).
Setting the test mode.
(1) Turn ignition switch OFF.
(2) Connect terminals TE2 and E1 of DLC2.
(3) Turn ignition switch ON.
(Don't start the engine)
(4) Connect terminal TE1 and E1 of DLC2.
Check if code ª43º is output by the malfunction indi-
cator lamp.
Code ª43º is output.
Start the engine.
Check if code ª43º disappears.
Code ª43º is not output.
Check output condition of diagnostic trouble code 43.
Proceed to next circuit inspection shown on
matrix chart (See page Eg±514.)
Check and replace engine control module.
Check for open in harness and connector between engine control module
and starter relay (See page IN±30).
Repair or replace harness or connector.

DTC 52 53 55 Knock Sensor Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Knock sensors are fitted one each to the front and rear of the left side of the cylinder block to detect
engine knocking. This sensor contains a piezoelectric element which generates a voltage when it be-
comes deformed, which occurs when the cylinder block vibrates due to knocking. If engine knocking
occurs, ignition timing is retarding to suppress it.

ECM
If the ECM detects the above diagnosis conditions, it operates the fail safe function in which the cor-
rective retard angle value is set to the maximum value.
Purpose of the driving pattern.
(a) To simulate diagnostic trouble code detecting condition after diagnostic trouble code is recorded.
(b) To check that the malfunction is corrected when the repair is completed by confirming that diagnos±
tic trouble code is no longer detected.
DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DETECTION DRIVING PATTERN
Malfunction: Open or short in Knock Sensor
(1) Start the engine and warm up.
(2) Idle the engine for 3 min.
(3) With the A/C ON, race the engine quickly to 5,000 rpm 3 times.
(Rapidly depress the accelerator pedal and suddenly release it.)
HINT: If a malfunction exists, the malfunction indicator lamp will light up when sudden racing is
performed.
NOTICE: If the conditions in this test are not strictly followed, detection of the malfunction
will not be possible.
