Fuel Cut-off Control
. During deceleration with the throttle valve closed, current to the fuel injectors is cut off to improve fuel economy at
speeds over the following rpm:. D16Y5 engine (M/T):850 rpm. D]6Y5 engine (CVT), D'16Y8 engine (USA M/T): 920 rpm
. Dl6Y8 engine (USA A,/I), D16Y7 engine (USA A,/T);910 rpm
. D16Y8 engine (Canada M/T), D16Y7 engine (canada): 990 rpm
' D16Y8 engine (Canada M/T): 1,000 rpm
. 816A2 engine: 970 rpm
. Fuel cut-off action also takes place when engine speed exceeds 6,900 rpm (D16Y5, D16Y7 engine; D'16Y8 engine:
7,000 rpm. 816A2 engine: 8.100 rpm), regardless of the position of the throttle valve, to protect the engine from
over-rewing. With '99 Dl6Y7 engine (A,/T) and '99 D16Y8 engine (A./T), the PCM cuts the fuel at engine speeds over
5,000 rpm when the vehicle is not moving.
IVC Compressor Clutch Relay
When the ECM/PCM receives a demand for cooling from the air conditioning system, it delays the compressor from
being energized, and enriches the mixture to assure smooth transition to the A,/C mode
Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Purge Control Solenoid Valve*'
When the engine coolant temperature is above 154'F (68'C). the ECM/PCM controls the EVAP purge control solenoid
valve which controls vacuum to the EVAP purge control canister.
Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Purge Control Solenoid Valve*a
When the engine coolant temperature above 154"F (68"C), intake air temperature above 32"F (0'C) and vehicle speed
above 0 mile (0 km/h) or [Ay'C compressor clutch on and intake air temperature above 160"F (41'C)], the ECM/PCM
controls the EVAP purge control solenoid valve which controls vacuum to the EVAP purge control canister.
Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Control Solenoid Valve*?
When EGR is required for control of oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emissions. the ECM controls the EGR control solenoid
valve which supplies regulated vacuum to the EGR valve
Alternator Control
The system controls the voltage generated at the alternator in accordance with the electrical load and driving mode,
which reduces the engine load to improve the fuel economy.
ECM/PCM Fail-safe/Back-up Functions
1. Fail safe Function
When an abnormality occurs in a signal from a sensor, the ECM/PCM ignores that signal and assumes a pre-pro-
grammed value for that sensor that allows the engine to continue to run.
2. Back-uD Function
When an abnormality occurs in the ECM/PCM itself, the fuel injectors are controlled by a back-up circuit independent
of the system in order to permit minimal driving.
3. Self diagnosis Function lMalfunction Indicator Lamp (MlL)l
When an abnormality occurs in a signal from a sensor, the ECM/PCM supplies ground for the lvllL and stores the DTC
in erasable memory. When the ignition is initially turned on, the ECM/PCM supplies ground for the MIL for two sec-
onds to check the MIL bulb condition.
4. Two Trip Detection Method
To prevent false indications, the Two Trip Detection Method is used for the HO2S, fuel metering-related. idle control
system, ECT sensor, EGR system and EVAP control system self-diagnostic functions. When an abnormality occurs,
the ECM/PCM stores it in its memory. When the same abnormality recurs after the ignition switch is turned OFF and
ON 0l) again, the ECM/PCM informs the driver by lighting the MlL. However, to ease troubleshooting, this function is
cancelled when you jump the service check connector. The MIL will then blink immediately when an abnormality
occurs,
5. Two (or Three) Driving Cycle Detection Method
A "Driving Cycle" consists ot starting the engine. beginning closed loop operation, and stopping the engine. lf misfir-
ing that increases emissions is detected during two consecutive driving cycles, or TWC deterioration is detected dur-
ing three consecutive driving cycles, the ECM/PCM turns the MIL on. However, to ease troubleshooting, this function
is cancelled when you jump the service check connector. The MIL will then blink immediately when an abnormality
occurs.

Power Door Locks (cont'd)
- How the Circuit Works
Keyless Entry System
The keyless door locks combine the power door
locks with a remote keyJob transmitter. The keyless
receiver unit is part of the radio. The keyless
receiver unit receives direct inputs f rom the ignition
key switch, the passenger door switches, and an
indirect input trom the driver's door switch through
the integrated control unit.
Power Door Locks (With or Wlthout Keyless)
The power door lock system is made up of the
oower door lock control unit. driver's door lock
switch, and individual door lock actuators. The
power door locks are controlled by the driver's door
lock switch and the driver's door lock actuator
switch.
Transmitter (With Keyless Entry)
The transmitter sends coded radio wave signals to
the keyless receiver unit when one ot its buttons is
pressed. Each transmitter has a unique code that
must be 'laught" to the keyless receiver unit before
it can operate the door locks or any other lunction.
Up to 4 transmitters can be programmed to operate
the keyless door locks.
Door Locking (With or without Keyless Entry)
When you push the driver's door lock switch to the
lock position, ground is applied to the GBN/IVHT
wire to the oower door lock control unit. The control
unit then applies battery voltage to the WHT/RED
wire and ground to the YEURED wire. The
passenger door lock actuators then activate to lock
the corresponding door locks.
When you lock the driver's door with the key or door
lock knob, it is mechanically locked, and the driver's
door lock actuator switch applies ground to the
oower door lock control unit. The control unit then
applies battery voltage to the WHT/RED wire and
ground to the YEURED wire, activating the
passenger door lock actuators which lock the doors.
Dool Locking with Transmitter
When you press the LOCK button on the remote
transmitter, the power door lock control unit applies
battery voltage to the WHT/RED wire and ground to
the YEURED wire. The passenger door lock
actuators then activate and lock the doors. A ground
slgnal is also applied to the BLU/RED wire to lock
the driver's door. lf any door is open, you cannot lock
it using the remote transmitter.
Door Unlocking (With or Without Keyless Entry)
When you push the driver's power door lock switch
to the unlock position, ground is applied to the
GRN/ORN wire to the power door lock control unit.
The control unit then applies battery voltage to the
YEURED and BLU/RED wires and ground to the
WHT/RED wire. The door lock actuators then
activate to unlock the doors.
When you unlock the driver's door with the key or
the door lock knob, it is mechanically unlocked; the
other doors do not unlock.
Door Unlocking (With Transmltter)
When you press the UNLOCK button on lhe remote
transmitter once. the power door lock control unit
applies battery voltage to the WHT/RED wire and
ground to the BLU/RED wire to unlock the driver's
door. When you press the UNLOCK button twice,
the control unit then applies ground to the YEURED
wires to activate the passenger door locks. lf you do
not open a door within 30 seconds after unlocking
the doors with the transmitter, the doors
automatically relock.
