Precautions
+Before connecting or disconnecting the ECM harness
connector, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect nega-
tive battery terminal. Failure to do so may damage the ECM
because battery voltage is applied to ECM even if ignition
switch is turned off.
+When connecting ECM harness connector, tighten secur-
ing bolt until the gap between orange indicators disap-
pears.
: 3.0 - 5.0 Nzm (0.3 - 0.5 kg-m, 26 - 43 in-lb)
+When connecting or disconnecting pin connectors into or
from ECM, take care not to damage pin terminals (bend or
break).
Make sure that there are not any bends or breaks on ECM
pin terminal, when connecting pin connectors.
+Before replacing ECM, perform Terminals and Reference
Value inspection and make sure ECM functions properly.
Refer to EC-54.
+If MIL illuminates or blinks irregularly when engine is
running, water may have accumulated in fuel ®lter. Drain
water from fuel ®lter. If this does not correct the problem,
perform speci®ed trouble diagnostic procedures.
+After performing each TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS, perform
``OVERALL FUNCTION CHECK'' or ``DTC (Diagnostic
Trouble Code) CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE''.
The DTC should not be displayed in the ``DTC CONFIRMA-
TION PROCEDUREº if the repair is completed. The ``OVER-
ALL FUNCTION CHECK'' should be a good result if the
repair is completed.

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.

REAL TIME DIAGNOSIS IN DATA MONITOR MODE
CONSULT has two kinds of triggers and they can be selected by touching ``SETTING'' in ``DATA MONITOR''
mode.
1. ``AUTO TRIG'' (Automatic trigger):
+The malfunction will be identi®ed on the CONSULT screen in real time.
In other words, the malfunction item will be displayed at the moment the malfunction is detected by
ECM.
DATA MONITOR can be performed continuously until a malfunction is detected. However, DATA
MONITOR cannot continue any longer after the malfunction detection.
2. ``MANU TRIG'' (Manual trigger):
+The malfunction item will not be displayed automatically on CONSULT screen even though a malfunc-
tion is detected by ECM.
DATA MONITOR can be performed continuously even though a malfunction is detected.
Use these triggers as follows:
1. ``AUTO TRIG''
+While trying to detect the DTC by performing the ``DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE'', be sure to
select to ``DATA MONITOR (AUTO TRIG)'' mode. You can con®rm the malfunction at the moment it is
detected.
+While narrowing down the possible causes, CONSULT should be set in ``DATA MONITOR (AUTO
TRIG)'' mode, especially in case the incident is intermittent.
Inspect the circuit by gently shaking (or twisting) suspicious connectors, components and harness in
the ``DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE''. The moment a malfunction is found the malfunction item
will be displayed. (Refer to GI section, ``Incident Simulation Tests'' in ``HOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT
DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENT''.)
2. ``MANU TRIG''
+If the malfunction is displayed as soon as ``DATA MONITOR'' is selected, reset CONSULT to ``MANU
TRIG''. By selecting ``MANU TRIG'' you can monitor and store the data. The data can be utilized for
further diagnosis, such as a comparison with the value for the normal operating condition.

Description for Work Flow
STEP DESCRIPTION
STEP IGet detailed information about the conditions and the environment when the incident/symptom occurred using the
``DIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEET'' as shown on EC-43.
STEP IIBefore con®rming the concern, check and write down (print out using CONSULT) the Diagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC), then erase the code. Refer to EC-30.
Study the relationship between the cause, speci®ed by DTC, and the symptom described by the customer. (The
``Symptom Matrix Chart'' will be useful. Refer to EC-48.)
STEP IIITry to con®rm the symptom and under what conditions the incident occurs.
The ``DIAGNOSTIC WORK SHEET'' is useful to verify the incident. Connect CONSULT to the vehicle in DATA
MONITOR (AUTO TRIG) mode and check real time diagnosis results.
If the incident cannot be veri®ed, perform INCIDENT SIMULATION TESTS. Refer to GI section.
If the malfunction code is detected, skip STEP IV and perform STEP V.
STEP IVTry to detect the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) by driving in (or performing) the ``DTC CONFIRMATION PROCE-
DURE''. Check and read the DTC by using CONSULT.
During the DTC veri®cation, be sure to connect CONSULT to the vehicle in DATA MONITOR (AUTO TRIG) mode
and check real time diagnosis results.
If the incident cannot be veri®ed, perform INCIDENT SIMULATION TESTS. Refer to GI section.
In case the ``DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE'' is not available, perform the ``OVERALL FUNCTION CHECK''
instead. The DTC cannot be displayed by this check, however, this simpli®ed ``check'' is an effective alternative.
The ``NG'' result of the ``OVERALL FUNCTION CHECK'' is the same as the DTC detection.
STEP VTake the appropriate action based on the results of STEP I through IV.
If the malfunction code is indicated, proceed to TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR DTC XX.
If the normal code is indicated, proceed to the BASIC INSPECTION. Refer to EC-46. Then perform inspections
according to the Symptom Matrix Chart. Refer to EC-48.
STEP VIIdentify where to begin diagnosis based on the relationship study between symptom and possible causes. Inspect
the system for mechanical binding, loose connectors or wiring damage using (tracing) ``Harness Layouts''.
Gently shake the related connectors, components or wiring harness with CONSULT set in ``DATA MONITOR
(AUTO TRIG)'' mode.
Check the voltage of the related ECM terminals or monitor the output data from the related sensors with CON-
SULT. Refer to EC-54.
The ``DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE'' in EC section contains a description based on open circuit inspection. A short
circuit inspection is also required for the circuit check in the DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE. For details, refer to GI
section (``Circuit Inspection'', ``HOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENT'').
Repair or replace the malfunction parts.
STEP VIIOnce you have repaired the circuit or replaced a component, you need to run the engine in the same conditions
and circumstances which resulted in the customer's initial complaint.
Perform the ``DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE'' and con®rm the normal code (Diagnostic trouble code No. 55)
is detected. If the incident is still detected in the ®nal check, perform STEP VI by using a different method from the
previous one.
Before returning the vehicle to the customer, be sure to erase the unnecessary (already ®xed) DTC in ECM. (Refer
to EC-30.)
