DTC 35 Barometric Pressure Sensor Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The BARO sensor is built into the ECM. This is a semiconductor pressure sensor with properties which cause
its electrical resistance to change when stress is applied to the sensor's crystal (silicon) (piezoelectric effect).
This sensor is used to detect the atmospheric (absolute) pressure and outputs corresponding electrical signals.
Fluctuations in the air pressure cause changes in the intake air density, which can cause deviations in the air±
fuel ratio. The signals from BARO sensor are used to make corrections for these fluctuations. If the ECM detects
diagnostic trouble code º35º, the fail safe function operates and the atmospheric pressure is set at a constant
101.3 kPa (760 mmHg, 29.92 in.Hg).

DTC 41 Throttle Position Sensor Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The throttle position sensor is mounted in the throttle
body and detects the throttle valve opening angle. When
the throttle valve is fully closed, the IDL contacts in the
throttle position sensor are on, so the voltage at the ter-
minal IDL of the ECM becomes 0 V. At this time, a voltage
of approximately 0.7 V is applied to the terminal VTA of
the ECM. When the throttle valve is opened, the IDL con-
tacts go off and thus the power source voltage of approx-
imately 12 V in the ECM is applied to the terminal IDL of
the ECM. The voltage applied to the terminal VTA of the
ECM increases in the proportion to the opening angle of
the throttle valve and becomes approximately 3.2 ± 4.9
V when the throttle valve is fully opened. The ECM
judges the vehicles driving conditions from these signals
input from the terminals VTA and IDL, and uses them as
one of the conditions for deciding the air±fuel ratio
correction, power increase correction and fuel±cut con-
trol etc.

DTC 42 No.1 Vehicle Speed Sensor Signal Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The No.1 vehicle speed sensor outputs a 4±pulse signal for every revolution of the rotor shaft, which is
rotated by the transmission output shaft via the driven gear. After this signal is converted into a more pre-
cise rectangular waveform by the waveform shaping circuit inside the odometer and trip meter, it is then
transmitted to the engine control module. The ECM determines the vehicle speed based on the frequency
of these pulse signals.

DTC 52 53 55 Knock Sensor Circuit
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 retarded to suppress it.

If the ECM detects the above diagnosis conditions, it operates the fail safe function in which the correc-
tive retard angle value is set to the maximum value.
DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DETECTION DRIVING PATTERN
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 diag±
nostic trouble code is no longer detected.
(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. EG±450
