ECM/PCM Data
By connecting the OBD ll scan tool or the Honda PGM Tester to the 16P data link connector (OLC), various data can be
retrieved from the ECM/PCM. The items listed in the table below conform to the SAE recommended practice
The Honda PGM Tester also reads data beyond that recommended by SAE.
understanding this data will help to find the causes of intermittent failures or engine problems.
NOTE:
The ',operating values" given below are approximate values and may be different depending on the environment and
the individual vehicle.
Unless noted otherwise. "at idle speed" means idling with the engine completely warmed up, transmission in position
Park or neutral and the A,./C and all accessories turned otf.

Diagnostic
Trouble Code
(DTC)
lf the ECM/PCM detects a problem, it will store it as a
code consisting of one letter and tour numbers
Depending on the problem, an SAE-defined code (Poxxx)
or a Honda-defined code (P'lxxx) will be output to the
tester.
lf no problem is detected,
there is no output.
YES
Engine SpeedThe ECN4/PCN4 computes engine speed from the signals
sent from the Crankshaft Position sensor.
This data is used for determining the time and amount of
fuel iniection.
Nearly the same as
tachometer indication
At idle speed:'97 - 98 models:
750 t 50 rpm'99 - 00 models:
730 f 50 rpm
YES
Vehicle SpeedThe ECM/PCM converts pulse signals from the Vehicle
Speed Sensor (VSSI into speed data.
Nearly the same as
speedometer indicationYES
Manifold
Absolute
Pressure (MAP)
The absolute pressure caused in the intake manifold by
engine load and speed.
With engin6 stopped:
Nearly the same as atmo-
spheric pressure
At idle speed:
2a - 41 kPa {210 - 310
mmHg, 8.3 - 12.2 inHg)
YES
Engine Coolant
Temperature
{ECT)
The ECT sensor converts coolant temperature into volt-
age and signals the ECM/PCM. The sensor is a thermistor
whose internal resistance changes with coolant tempera-
ture. The ECM/PCM uses the voltage signals from the
ECT sensor to determine the amount of injected fuel
With cold engine:
Same as ambient temPer-
ature and IAT
With engine warmed uP:
approx. 163 - 2'12'F
(73 - 100"c)
YES
Heated Oxygen
Sensor (HO25)
(Primary,
Sensor 1)
(Secondary
Sensor 2)
The Heated Oxygen Sensor detects the oxygen content in
the exhaust gas and sends voltage signals to the
ECMiPCM. Based on these signals, the ECM/PCM controls
the airlfuel ratio. When the oxygen content is high (that is.
when the ratio is leaner than the stoichiometric ratio), the
voltage signal is lower.
When the orygen content is low (that is, when the ratio
is richer than the stoichiometric ratio), the voltage signal
is higher.
0.0 - 1.25 V
At idle speed:
about 0.1 - 0.9

HO2S
Feedback
Loop Status
Loop status is indicated as "open" or "closed".
Closed: Based on the HO2S output, the ECM/pCM deter-mines the airlfuel ratio and controls the amount ofinjected fuel.
Open: ignoring HO2S output, the ECM/pCiM refers to sig,nals from the TP, MAP, and ECT sensors to control theamount of injected fuel.
At idle speed: closed
YES
Short Term
Fuel Trim
The airlfuel ratio correction coefficient for correcting theamount of injected fuel when HO2S feedback is in theclosed loop status. When the signal from the HO2S isweak, short term fuel trim gets higher, and the ECM/PCMincreases the amount of injected fuel. The airlfuel ratiogradually gets richer, causing a higher HO2S output.Consequently. the short term fuel trim is lowered. andthe ECM/PCM reduces the amount of injected fuel.This cycle keeps the airfuel ratio close to the stoichio-metric ratio when in closed looD status.
t:20y"
YES
Long Term
Fuel Trim
Long term fuel trim is computed from shon term fueltrim and indicates changes occuring in the fuel supplysystem over a long period.
lf long term fuel trim is higher than 1,00. the amount ofinjected fuel must be increased. lf it is lower than L00.the amount of injected fuel must be reduced.
! 20%
Intake Air
Temperature
(IAT)
The IAT sensor converts intake air temperature into volt-age and signals the ECrU/PCM. When intake air tempera-ture is low, the internal resistance of the sensorincreases, and the voltage signal is higher.
With cold engine:
Same as ambient temper-
ature and ECTYES
Throttle
Position
Based on the accelerator pedal position, the openingangle of the throttle valve is indicateo.At idle speed:
approx. 10%
lgnition
Timing
lgnition timing is the ignition advance angle set by theECM/PCM. The ECM/PCM matches ignition timing to thedriving conditions.
At idle speed: 16'1 4.
BTDC with the SCS ser-
vtce connector connected.

Calculated
Load Value(cLV)
CLV is the engine load calculated from the MAp data.At idle speed:
