*3: This indicates items for which º2 trip detection logicº is used. With this logic, when a logic malfunction is
first detected, the malfunction is temporarily stored in the ECM memory. If the same case is detected again
during the second drive test, this second detection causes the Malfunction Indicator Lamp to light up.
The 2 trip repeats the same mode a 2nd time. (However, the IG switch must be turned OFF between the
1st trip and 2nd trip).
In the Test Mode, the Malfunction Indicator Lamp lights up the 1st trip a malfunction is detected.

Back±Up Function
If there is trouble with the program in the ECM and the ignition signals (IGT) are not output from the microcomput-
er, the ECM controls fuel injection and ignition timing at predetermined levels as a back±up function to make
it possible to continue to operate the vehicle.
Furthermore, the injection duration is calculated from the starting signal (STA) and the throttle position signal
(IDL). Also, the ignition timing is fixed at the initial ignition timing, 10
°BTDC, without relation to the engine speed.
HINT: If the engine is controlled by the back±up function, the malfunction indicator lamp lights up to warn the
driver of the malfunction but the diagnostic trouble code is not output. EG±504

CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS
As described in the preceding paragraph, abnormality detection
ability in the test mode is increased compared to that in the normal
mode, so that when intermittent problems occur in the ECM signal
circuits (G1, G2, NE, THW, THA, VTA1, VTA2) shown in the table
below, the appropriate diagnostic trouble code is output.
Accordingly, when the diagnostic trouble codes shown in the table
opposite (13, 22, 24, 41, 47) are output during the diagnostic
trouble code check, and inspection of the appropriate circuits re-
veals no abnormality, check for intermittent problems as described
below.
By checking for intermittent problems, the place where intermittent
problems are occurring due to poor contacts can be isolated.
CLEAR DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
See page EG±493.
SET TEST MODE
1. With the ignition switch OFF, using SST, connect the
terminals TE2 and E1 of the data link connector 2.
SST 09843±18020
2. Start the engine and check to see the malfunction indicator
lamp goes off.
PERFORM A SIMULATION TEST
Using the symptom simulation (See page IN±24), apply vibration
to and pull lightly on the wire harness, connector or terminals in the
circuit indicated by the malfunction code.
In this test, if the malfunction indicator lamp lights up, it indicates
that the place where the wire harness, connector or terminals be-
ing pulled or vibrated has faulty contact. Check that point for loose
connections, dirt on the terminals, poor fit or other problems and
repair as necessary.
HINT: After cancelling out the diagnostic trouble code in memory
and set the test mode, if the malfunction indicator lamp does not
go off after the engine is started, check thoroughly for faulty con-
tacts, etc., then try the check again, if the malfunction indicator
lamp still does not go off, check and replace ECM.

BASIC INSPECTION
In many cases, by carrying out the basic engine check shown in the following flow chart, the location causing
the problem can be found quickly and efficiently. Therefore, use of this check is essential in engine troubleshoot-
ing.
If there is a problem, and a normal code is displayed, proceed to the matrix chart of problem symptoms on page
EG±514. Make sure that every likely cause of the problem is checked.
Is battery positive voltage 11 V or more when engine is stopped?
Is engine cranked?
Does engine start?
Check air filter.
Charge or replace battery.
Proceed to matrix chart of problem symptom
on page EG±514.
Repair or replace.
Remove air filter.
Visually check that the air filter is not excessively
dirty or oily.
If necessary, clean the air filter with compressed
air. First blow from inside thoroughly, then blow
from outside of the air filter.
Charge or replace battery.
Is battery positive voltage 11 V or more when engine is stopped?
