DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE IÐBULB CHECK
In this mode, the MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP on the instrument panel should stay ON. If it remains
OFF, check the bulb. Refer to EL section (``WARNING LAMPS AND CHIME'') or see EC-188.
DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE IÐMALFUNCTION WARNING
MALFUNCTION
INDICATOR LAMPCondition
ONWhen the malfunction is detected or the ECM's CPU is malfunctioning. (Refer to ``MIL Illumination'' of the
``DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE INDEX'', EC-1.)
OFF No malfunction.
+These Diagnostic Trouble Code Numbers are clari®ed in Diagnostic Test Mode II (SELF-DIAGNOSTIC
RESULTS).
DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE IIÐSELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS
In this mode, a diagnostic trouble code is indicated by the number of blinks of the MALFUNCTION INDICA-
TOR LAMP as shown below.
Long (0.6 second) blinking indicates the number of ten digits, and short (0.3 second) blinking indicates the
number of single digits. For example, the malfunction indicator lamp blinks 4 times for 5 seconds (0.6 sec x
4 times) and then it blinks three times for about 1 second (0.3 sec x 3 times). This indicates the DTC ``43''
and refers to the malfunction of the accelerator position sensor circuit.
In this way, all the detected malfunctions are classi®ed by their diagnostic trouble code numbers. The DTC
``55'' refers to no malfunction. (See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE INDEX, EC-1.)
HOW TO ERASE DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE II (Self-diagnostic results)
The diagnostic trouble code can be erased from the backup memory in the ECM when the diagnostic test mode
is changed from Diagnostic Test Mode II to Diagnostic Test Mode I. (Refer to ``HOW TO SWITCH DIAGNOS-
TIC TEST MODES'' on previous page.)
+If the battery terminal is disconnected, the diagnostic trouble code will be lost from the backup
memory within 24 hours.
+Be careful not to erase the stored memory before starting trouble diagnoses.
+If the MIL blinks or ``NATS MALFUNCTION'' is displayed on
``SELF-DIAG RESULTS'' screen, perform self-diagnostic
results mode with CONSULT using NATS program card
(NATS-E940). Refer to EL section.
+Con®rm no self-diagnostic results of NATS is displayed
before touching ``ERASE'' in ``SELF-DIAG RESULTS'' mode
with CONSULT.
+When replacing ECM, initialisation of NATS V2.0 system
and registration of all NATS V2.0 ignition key IDs must be
carried out with CONSULT using NATS program card
(NATS-E940).
Therefore, be sure to receive all keys from vehicle owner.
Regarding the procedures of NATS initialisation and NATS
ignition key ID registration, refer to CONSULT operation
manual, NATS V2.0.
