CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION (Cont'd)
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 confirming that diagnostic
trouble code is no longer detected.
(1) Disconnect the EFI No.1 fuse (30A) for 10 sec. or more, with IG switch OFF.
Initiate test mode (Connect terminal TE2 and E1 of data link connector 2 with
IG switch OFF).
(2) Start the engine and warm up with all ACC switch OFF.
(3) Deive the vehicle at 80 ~ 88 km/h (50 ~ 55 mph) for 10 min. or more.
(4) Stop at a safe place and idle the engine for 2 min. or less.
(5) Accelerate to 96 km/h (60 mph) with the throttle valve fully open.
HINT: If a malfunction exists, the malfunction indicator lamp will light up during step (5).
NOTICE: If the conditions in this test are not strictly followed, detection of the malfunction
will not be possible.
Malfunction: Open or Short in Sub Heated Oxygen Sensor

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT: When other codes are output in addition to 27 at the same time, check the circuits for other codes
first.
Check voltage between terminal HT3 of engine control module connector and
body ground.
(1) Connect SST (check harness ªAº).

Check for open and short in harness and connector between EFI main relay and
engine control module (See page
IN±30).
Replace sub heated oxygen sensor.
Repair or replace harness or connector.
Check and replace engine control module.
Check voltage between terminal HT3 of engine control module connector and
body ground.
Warm up engine to normal operating temperature.
Measure voltage between terminal HT3 of engine
control module connector and body ground, when
engine is idling and racing at 3,500 rpm.
Replace sub heated oxygen sensor.
Check and replace engine control module.
*: It is probable the oxygen sensor has
deteriorated.
Usually, this cannot be confirmed by visual
inspection.

DTC 31 Volume Air Flow Meter Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
As shown in the figure at right, when a pillar (Vortex
generating body is placed in the path of a uniform
flow, vortices called Karman±Vortex are generated
downstream of the object. Using this principle, a
vortex generator is placed inside the volume air
flow meter. By measuring the frequency of the vor-
tices generated, the ECM can determine the vol-
ume of air flowing through the volume air flow me-
ter. The vortices are detected by their exerting
pressure on thin metal foil mirror) surfaces and a
light emitting element and light receptor (LED and
photo transistor) positioned opposite the mirror
which optically senses the vibrations in the mirror.
The ECM uses these signals mainly for calculation
of the basic injection volume and the basic ignition
advance angle.

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).
