HOW TO DIAGNOSE
L;The most important point in troubleshooting is to determine “Probable Causes”. Once the probable causes
are determined, parts to be checked can be limited to those associated with such probable causes. Thereforeunnecessary checks can be eliminated. The determination of the probable causes must be based
ona theory and be supported by facts and must not be based on intuition only.
TROUBLESHOOTING STEPSIf an attempt is made to solve a problem without going through correct steps for troubleshooting, the
problem symptoms could become more complicated, resulting in failure to determine the causes correctly
and making incorrect repairs. The four steps below should be followed in troubleshooting.
I i
,;zirvation of Problem Symp-Determination of Probable
CausesI
Observe the symptom carefully.
Check if there are also other problems.
In determining the probable causes, it is necessary to check
the wiring diagram to understand the circuit as a system.
Knowledge of switches, relays and other parts is necessary
for accurate determination. The causes of similar problems
in the past must be taken into account.
After the problems are corrected, be sure to check that
the system operates correctly. Also, check that new prob-
lems have not been caused by the repair.
INFORMATION FOR DIAGNOSIS
Troubleshooting is carriedout by making step by step

This manual contains the cable diagrams as well as the individual circuit drawings, operational explanations,
and troubleshooting hints for each component required to facilitate the task of troubleshooting. The information
is compiled in the following manner:
(1) Cable diagrams show the connector positions, etc., on the actual vehicle as well as the harness path.(2) Circuit drawings show the configuration of the circuit with all switches in their normal positions.
(3) Operational explanations include. circuit drawings of voltage flow when the switch is operated and
how the component operates in reaction.
(4) Troubleshooting hints include numerous examples of problems which might occur, traced backwardin a common-sense manner to the origin of the trouble.
Problems whose origins may not be found in this manner are pursued through the various system
circuits.
NOTE
Components of MFI, ETACS, ECS, etc. with ECU do not include 3 and 4 above. For this information,
refer to a manual which includes details of these components.

(6) Connect a tachometer. (For the procedure for
connecting the tachometer, refer to GROUP
- On-vehicle Service.)(7)
kkconnect the negative battery cable.
(8) Leave the hood open.
(9) Start the engine.
(lO)With the engine running at 2500 rpm, turn the
headlights and other lights on and off to adjust
the generator load so that the value displayed
on the ammeter is slightly above 30A.Limit value: Max. 0.3 V
NOTE
When the generator output is high and the value
displayed on the ammeter does not decreaseto
30A, set the value to 40A. Read the value
displayed on the voltmeter at this time.
In this case the limit value becomes max. 0.4V.
Adjust the engine speed by gradually decreas-
ing it until the value displayed on the ammeterOUTPUT CURRENT TEST
is 30A. Take a reading of the value displayed
on the voltmeter at this time.
(11) If the value displayed on the voltmeter is above
the limit value, there is probably a malfunction
in the generator output wire, so check the wiring
between the generator
“IS” terminal and the bat-tery
(+) terminal (including fusible link).
If a terminal is not sufficiently tight or if the har-
ness has become discolored due to overheating,
repair and then test again.(12)After the test, run the engine at idle.
(13)Turn off all lights and turn the ignition switch
to the OFF position.
(14)Disconnect the negative battery cable.
(15)Disconnect the ammeter, voltmeter and tachom-
eter.
(16)Connect the generator output wire to the genera-
tor “B” terminal.
(17)Connect the negative battery cable.

(1) Press the stop ring, by using an appropriate socket,wrench, to the snap ring side.
(2)After removing the snap ring (by using snap-ring pliers),
remove the stop ring and the overrunning clutch.STARTER MOTOR PARTS CLEANING
1.Do not immerse parts in cleaning solvent. Immersing the
yoke and field coil assembly and/or armature will damage
insulation. Wipe these parts with a cloth only.
2.Do not immerse drive unit in cleaning solvent. Overrunning
clutch is pre-lubricated at the factory and solvent will wash
lubrication from clutch.3. The drive unit may be cleaned with a brush moistened
with cleaning solvent and wiped dry with a cloth.

BAlTERY VISUAL CHECK (1)
The battery contains a visual test indicator which gives blue
signal when an adequate charge level exists, and white signal
when charging is required.
BAlTERY VISUAL CHECK (2)
Make sure ignition switch is in Off position and all battery
feed accessories are Off.
1.Disconnect ground cable from battery before disconnecting
(+) cable.
2. Remove battery from vehicle.
CautionCare should be taken in the event battery case is
cracked or leaking to protect hands from the electro-
lyte. A suitable pair of rubber gloves (not the house-hold type) should be worn when removing battery
by hand.
3.Inspect battery carrier for damage caused by loss of acid
from battery. If acid damage is present, it will be necessaryto clean area with a solution of clean warm water and
baking soda. Scrub area with a stiff bristle brush and wipe
off with a cloth moistened with ammonia or baking soda
in water.

Return parts or wiring to
their proper position.
Caution
1.Connecting a high tension cable to the noise
filter may destroy the noise filter and shouldnever be done.
2.Check that there is no external noise. Since
failure to do this may result in misdiagnosis
due to inability to identify the noise source,
this operation must be performed.3. Noise prevention should be performed by
suppressing strong sources of noise step
by step.
NOTE
1. Condenser
The condenser does not pass D.C. current, butas the number of waves increases when it
passes A.C. current, impedance (resistanceagainst A.C.) decreases, and current flow is
facilitated. A noise suppressing condenser
which takes advantage of this property is in-
serted between the power line for the noise
source and the ground. This suppresses noiseby grounding the noise component (A.C. or
pulse signal) to the body of the vehicle.
2. Coil
The coil passes D.C. current, but impedance
rises as the number of waves increases relativeto the A.C. current. A noise suppressing coil
which takes advantage of this property is in-
serted into the power line for the noise source,
and works by preventing the noise componentfrom flowing or radiating out of the line.

Cases where the problem
is not eliminated by a single
response to one area are
common, due to several
bodypartsbeing
imperfectly grounded.

About multipath noise and fading noise
Because the frequency of FM waves is extreme-
ly high, it is highly susceptible to effects from
geological formations and buildings. These ef-
fects disrupt the broadcast signal and obstruct
‘reception in several ways.l Multipath noise
This describes the echo that occurs when the
broadcast signal is reflected by a large obstruc-
tion and enters the receiver with a slight time
delay relative to the direct signal (repetitious
buzzing).l Fading noise
This is a buzzing noise that occurs when the
broadcast beam is disrupted by obstructing ob-
jects and the signal strength fluctuates intricately
within a narrow range.
