The computing function of the ECM was judged to be malfunctioning.
When the fail-safe system activates, i.e. if the ECM detects a malfunction condition in the CPU of
ECM, the MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP on the instrument panel lights to warn the driver.
However, it is not possible to access ECCS and DTC cannot be confirmed.

When the fail-safe system is operating, fuel injection, ignition timing, fuel pump operation and IACV-
