IGNITION SYSTEM
This ignition system does not use a conventional distributor andcoil. It uses a crankshaft position sensor input to the
Engine Control Module (ECM). The ECM then determines Electronic Spark Timing (EST) and triggers the electronic
ignition system ignition coil.
This type of distributorless ignition system uses a‘‘waste spark” method of spark distribution. Each cylinder is paired
with the cylinder that is opposite it (2 -- 3 or 1 -- 4). The spark occurs simultaneously in the cylinder coming up on the
compression stroke and in the cylinder coming up on the exhaust stroke. The cylinder on the exhaust stroke requires
very little of the available energy to fire the spark plug. The remaining energy is available to the spark plug in the cylin-
der on the compression stroke.
These systems use the EST signal from the ECM to control the EST. The ECM uses the following information:
DEngine load (mass air flow sensor).
DEngine temperature.
DIntake air temperature.
DCrankshaft position.
DEngine speed (rpm).

IGNITION COIL
YAA1F920
The Electronic Ignition (EI) system ignition coil is located on the cylinder head cover. The double ended coils receive
the signal for the Engine Control Module (ECM) which controls the spark advance.
Each EI system ignition coil provides the high voltage to two spark plugs simultaneously;
T1/1: cylinder 1 and 4
T1/2: cylinder 2 and 3
The EI system ignition coil is not serviceable and must be replaced as an assembly.

Circuit Description
The Electronic Ignition (EI) system uses a waste spark method of spark distribution. The Crankshaft Position (CKP)
sensor sends reference pulses to the ECM. The ECM then triggers the EI system ignition coils. Once the ECM triggers
the EI system ignition coils both of the connected spark plugs fire at the same time. One cylinder is on its compression
stroke at the same time that the other is on the exhaust stroke, resulting in lower energy needed to fire the spark plug in
the cylinder on its exhaust stroke.
This leaves the remainder of the high voltage to be used to fire the spark plug in the cylinder on its compression stroke.
Since the CKP sensor is in a fixed position, timing adjustments are not possible or needed.

CRANKSHAFT POSITION (CKP) SENSOR
YAA1F940
This Electronic Ignition (EI) system uses inductive or pickup type magnetic Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor. The
CKP sensor is located in the opposite side of the crankshaft pulley and triggers the pick-up wheel teeth which is
equipped 60 -- 2 teeth with a gap of 2 teeth at 360 degree spacing. This sensor protrudes through its mount to within 1.1
±0.14 mm.
The output of the sensor is a sinusoidal signal. Each tooth of the pick-up 60 -- 2 wheel generates a positive half wave.
The Engine Control Module (ECM) uses this sensor signal to generate timed ignition and injection pulses that it sends
to the ignition coils and to the fuel injectors.

Circuit Description
The 58X reference signal is produced by the CKP sensor. During one crankshaft revolution, 58 crankshaft pulseswill
be produced. The ECM uses the 58X reference signal to calculate engine rpm and CKP. The ECM constantly monitors
the number of pulses on the 58X reference circuit and compares them to the number of Camshaft Position (CMP)
signal pulses being received. If the ECM receives and incorrect number of pulses on the 58X reference circuit, this
failure code will set.
Crankshaft Position Sensor Resistance Inspection
1. Disconnect the coupling “E” of ECM while the ignition switch is in “OFF” position.
2. Measure the resistance between the coupling terminal pin No. 99 and No. 100 using a multimeter.
Specified Value
1,050 ~ 1,400Ω
Notice:Measure the insulator resistance of the CKP sensor if out of the specified value.

sor and air gap if cannot get the output wave as shown in

CAMSHAFT POSITION (CMP) SENSOR
YAA1F950
The Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor sends a CMP signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM). The ECM uses this
signal as a “synchronized pulse” to trigger the injectors in the proper sequence. The ECM uses the CMP signal to
indicate the position of the #1 piston during its power stroke. This allows the ECM to calculate true sequential fuel
injection mode of operation.

Circuit Description
The CMP sensor sends a cam position signal to the ECM. If the cam position signal is lost while the engine is running,
the fuel injection system shifts to a calculated sequential fuel injection mode based on the last fuel injection pulse, and
the engine continuous to run.
