Idle Air Volume LearningNCEC0541DESCRIPTIONNCEC0541S01ªIdle Air Volume Learningº is an operation to learn the idle air vol-
ume that keeps each engine within the specific range. It must be
performed under any of the following conditions:
IEach time IACV-AAC valve, throttle body or ECM is replaced.
IIdle speed or ignition timing is out of specification.
PRE-CONDITIONINGNCEC0541S04Before performing ªIdle Air Volume Learningº, make sure that all of
the following conditions are satisfied.
Learning will be cancelled if any of the following conditions are
missed for even a moment.
IBattery voltage: More than 12.9V (At idle)
IEngine coolant temperature: 70 - 94ÉC (158 - 201ÉF)
IPNP switch: ON
IElectric load switch: OFF
(Air conditioner, headlamp, rear window defogger)
On vehicles equipped with daytime running light systems, set
lighting switch to the 1st position to light only small lamps.
ICooling fan motor: Not operating
ISteering wheel: Neutral (Straight-ahead position)
IVehicle speed: Stopped
ITransmission : Warmed up
For CVT models with CONSULT-II, drive vehicle until ªFLUID
TEMP SEº in ªDATA MONITORº mode of ªCVTº system indi-
cates less than 0.9V.
For CVT models without CONSULT-II and M/T models, drive
vehicle for 10 minutes.
OPERATION PROCEDURENCEC0541S02With CONSULT-IINCEC0541S02011. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
2. Check that all items listed under the topic ªPre-Conditioningº
(previously mentioned) are in good order.
3. Turn ignition switch ªOFFº and wait at least 9 seconds.
4. Start the engine and allow it to idle for at least 28 seconds.
5. Select ªIDLE AIR VOL LEARNº in ªWORK SUPPORTº mode.
6. Touch ªSTARTº and wait 20 seconds.
7. Make sure that ªCMPLTº is displayed on CONSULT-II screen.
If ªINCMPº is displayed, ªIdle Air Volume Learningº will not be
carried out successfully. In this case, find the cause of the
problem by referring to the NOTE below.
8. Rev up the engine two or three times. Make sure that idle
speed and ignition timing are within specifications.

NCEC0042Remarks:
ISpecification data are reference values.
ISpecification data are output/input values which are detected or supplied by the ECM at the connector.
* Specification data may not be directly related to their components signals/values/operations.
(i.e., Adjust ignition timing with a timing light before monitoring IGN TIMING. Specification data might be displayed even when igni-
tion timing is not adjusted to specification. This IGN TIMING monitors the data calculated by the ECM according to the input signals
from the camshaft position sensor and other ignition timing related sensors.)
IIf the real-time diagnosis results are NG, and the on board diagnostic system results are OK, when diagnosing the mass air flow sensor,
first check to see if the fuel pump control circuit is normal.

DescriptionNLEC1748The specification (SP) value indicates the tolerance of the value that is displayed in ªDATA MONITOR (SPEC)º
mode of CONSULT-II during normal operation of the Engine Control System. When the value in ªDATA MONI-
TOR (SPEC)º mode is within the SP value, the Engine Control System is confirmed OK. When the value in
ªDATA MONITOR (SPEC)º mode is NOT within the SP value, the Engine Control System may have one or
more malfunctions.
The SP value is used to detect malfunctions that may affect the Engine Control System, but will not light the
MIL.
The SP value will be displayed for the following three items:
IB/FUEL SCHDL (The fuel injection pulse width programmed into ECM prior to any learned on board cor-
rection)
IA/F ALPHA-B1/B2 (The mean value of air-fuel ratio feedback correction factor per cycle)

On Board Diagnosis LogicNCEC0202If a misfire occurs, the engine speed will fluctuate. If the fluctuation is detected by the crankshaft position sen-
sor (OBD), the misfire is diagnosed.
Sensor Input Signal to ECM ECM function
Crankshaft position sensor (OBD) Engine speed On board diagnosis of misfire
The misfire detection logic consists of the following two conditions.
1. One Trip Detection Logic (Three Way Catalyst Damage)
On the first trip that a misfire condition occurs that can damage the three way catalyst (TWC) due to
overheating, the MI will blink.
When a misfire condition occurs, the ECM monitors the CKP sensor signal every 200 engine revolutions
for a change.
When the misfire condition decreases to a level that will not damage the TWC, the MI will turn off.
If another misfire condition occurs that can damage the TWC on a second trip, the MI will blink.
When the misfire condition decreases to a level that will not damage the TWC, the MI will remain on.
If another misfire condition occurs that can damage the TWC, the MI will begin to blink again.
2. Two Trip Detection Logic (Exhaust quality deterioration)
For misfire conditions that will not damage the TWC (but will affect exhaust vehicle emissions), the MI will
only light when the misfire is detected on a second trip. During this condition, the ECM monitors the CKP
sensor signal every 1,000 engine revolutions.
A misfire malfunction can be detected on any one cylinder or on multiple cylinders.
