GENERAL – How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points00-8
WHEN USING THE WARNING LAMP
1. Use the special tool to earth No.1 terminal (diagnosis
control terminal) of the diagnosis connector.
2. To check ABS system, remove the valve relay.
NOTE
That is because the valve relay is off and the warning
lamp remains illuminated if there is a fault in the ABS
system.
3. Turn on the ignition switch.
4. Read out a diagnosis code by observing how the warning
lamp flashes.

WHEN USING THE VOLTMETER
Use the special tool to connect the diagnosis output terminals
and the earth terminal of the diagnosis connector to a voltmeter
and take a reading of the diagnosis codes from the movement
of the needle.

INSPECTION SERVICE POINTS FOR A BLOWN
FUSE
Remove the fuse and measure the resistance between the
load side of the fuse and the earth. Set the switches of all
circuits which are connected to this fuse to a condition of
continuity. If the resistance is almost 0 Ω at this time, there
is a short somewhere between these switches and the load.
If the resistance is not 0 Ω, there is no short at the present
time, but a momentary short has probably caused the fuse
to blow.
The main causes of a short circuit are the following.
Harness being clamped by the vehicle body
Damage to the outer casing of the harness due to wear
or heat
Water getting into the connector or circuitry
Human error (mistakenly shorting a circuit, etc.)
POINTS TO NOTE FOR INTERMITTENT
MALFUNCTIONS
Intermittent malfunctions often occur under certain conditions,
and if these conditions can be ascertained, determining the
cause becomes simple. In order to ascertain the conditions
under which an intermittent malfunction occurs, first ask the
customer for details about the driving conditions, weather
conditions, frequency of occurrence and trouble symptoms,
and then try to recreate the trouble symptoms. Next, ascertain
whether the reason why the trouble symptom occurred under
these conditions is due to vibration, temperature or some
other factor. If vibration is thought to be the cause, carry
out the following checks with the connectors and components
to confirm whether the trouble symptom occurs.
The objects to be checked are connectors and components
which are indicated by inspection procedures or given as
probable causes (which generates diagnosis codes or trouble
symptoms.)
Gently shake the connector up, down and to the left and
right.
Gently shake the wiring harness up, down and to the
left and right.
Gently rock each sensor and relay, etc. by hand.
Gently shake the wiring harness at suspensions and other
moving parts.
NOTE
If determining the cause is difficult, the flight recorder function
of the MUT-II can also be used.

GENERAL – Precautions Before Service00-15
PRECAUTIONS BEFORE SERVICE
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
1. Items to follow when servicing SRS
(1) Be sure to read GROUP 52B – Supplemental Restraint System (SRS).
For safe operations, please follow the directions and heed all warnings.
(2) Always use the designated special tools and test equipment.
(3) Wait at least 60 seconds after disconnecting the battery cable before doing any further work.
The SRS system is designed to retain enough voltage to deploy the air bag even after the battery
has been disconnected. Serious injury may result from unintended air bag deployment if work
is done on the SRS system immediately after the battery cable is disconnected.
(4) Never attempt to disassemble or repair the SRS components. (SRS air bag control unit, air bag
module and clock spring.) If faulty, replace it.
(5) Warnings labels must be needed when servicing and handling SRS components. Warning labels
are located in the following locations.
Sun visor
Glove box
SRS air bag control unit
Steering wheel
Steering gear and linkage
Air bag module
Clock spring
(6) Store components removed from the SRS in a clean and dry place.
The air bag module should be stored on a flat surface and placed so that the pad surface is
facing upwards.
(7) Be sure to deploy the air bag before disposing of air bag module or disposing of a vehicle equipped
with an air bag. (Refer to GROUP 52B – Air Bag Module Disposal Procedures.)
(8) Whenever you finish servicing the SRS, check the SRS warning lamp operation to make sure
that the system functions properly.
2. Observe the following when carrying out operations on place where SRS components are installed,
including operations not directly related to the SRS air bag.
(1) When removing or installing parts do not allow any impact or shock to the SRS components.
(2) SRS components should not be subjected to heat over 93C, so remove the SRS components
before drying or baking the vehicle after painting.
After re-installing them, check the SRS warning lamp operation to make sure that the system
functions properly.

GENERAL – Precautions Before Service00-16
SERVICING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Before replacing a component related to the electrical system
and before undertaking any repair procedures involving the
electrical system, be sure to first disconnect the negative
(–) cable from the battery in order to avoid damage caused
by short-circuiting.
Caution
Before connecting or disconnecting the negative (–) cable,
be sure to turn off the ignition switch and the lighting
switch.
(If this is not done, there is the possibility of
semiconductor parts being damaged.)
APPLICATION OF ANTI-CORROSION AGENTS
AND UNDERCOATS
If oil or grease gets onto the oxygen sensor, it will cause
a drop in the performance of the sensor.
Cover the oxygen sensor with a protective cover when applying
anti-corrosion agents and undercoats.
PRE-INSPECTION CONDITION
“Pre-inspection condition” refers to the condition that the
vehicle must be in before proper engine inspection can be
carried out. If you see the words “Set the vehicle to the
pre-inspection condition.” in this manual, it means to set the
vehicle to the following condition.
Engine coolant temperature: 80–90C
Lamps, electric cooling fan and all accessories: OFF
M/T: Neutral
VEHICLE WASHING
If high-pressure car-washing equipment or steam car-washing
equipment is used to wash the vehicle, be sure to note the
following information in order to avoid damage to plastic
components, etc.
Spray nozzle distance: Approx. 40 cm or more
Spray pressure: 3,900 kPa or less
Spray temperature: 82C or less
Time of concentrated spray to one point: within 30 sec.
Approx.
40 cm

IOIL PUMP SPROCKET INSTALLATION
(1) Insert a Phillips screwdriver (shank diameter 8 mm shaft)
through the plug hole on the left side of the cylinder
block to block the left counterbalance shaft.
(2) Install the oil pump sprocket.
(3) Apply a proper amount of engine oil to the bearing surfaces
of the nuts.
(4) Tighten the nuts to the specified torque.
