ness connector.
3. Apply battery voltage between com-
bination meter terminal
p5andp13.
4. Check that MI lits on.
OK
ENG
Replace MI bulb.
CHECK POWER SUPPLY.
1. Turn ignition switch to ªONº position.
2. Check voltage between combination
meter terminal
p5and body
ground.
Voltage: Battery voltage
OK
ENG
Check the following:
lHarness for open or
short-circuit between
combination meter and
ignition switch.
l10A fuse
If NG, repair or replace
harness or fuse.
CHECK GROUND CIRCUIT.
1. Turn ignition switch to ªLOCKº posi-
tion.
2. Disconnect ECM harness connector.
3. Check continuity between combina-
tion meter connector terminal
p13
and ECM connector terminal215.
Continuity should exist.
If OK, check harness for short-cir-
cuit.
OK
ENG
Check the following:
lHarness connectors
M50,F104
If NG, repair harness or
connectors.
lHarness and connec-
tors for open or short-
circuit between ECM
and combination meter.
Disconnect and reconnect harness
connectors in the circuit. Then retest.
Trouble is not fixed
Check ECM pin terminals for damage
and check the connection of ECM har-
ness connector. Reconnect ECM har-
ness connector and retest.

EC-143
DESCRIPTIONNCEC0032
The MI is located on the instrument panel.
1. The MI will light up when the ignition switch is turned ON without the engine running. This is a bulb check.
IIf the MI does not light up, refer to EL section (ªWARNING LAMPSº) or see EC-QG-354.
2. When the engine is started, the MI should go off.
If the MI remains on, the on board diagnostic system has detected an engine system malfunction.
On Board Diagnostic System Function=NCEC0032S01The on board diagnostic system has the following four functions.
Diagnostic Test Mode I
1. BULB CHECK:
This function checks the MI bulb for damage (blown, open circuit, etc.).
If the MI does not come on, check MI circuit and ECM test mode selector. (See the following page.)
2. MALFUNCTION WARNING:
This is a usual driving condition. When a malfunction is detected twice in two consecutive driving cycles
(two trip detection logic), the MI will light up to inform the driver that a malfunction has been detected.
The following malfunctions will light up or blink the MI in the 1st trip.
IªMisfire (Possible three way catalyst damage)º
IFail-safe mode
Diagnostic Test Mode II
3. SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS:
This function allows DTCs and 1st trip DTCs to be read.
4. HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR 1 (FRONT) MONITOR:
This function allows the fuel mixture condition (lean or rich), monitored by heated oxygen sensor 1 (front),
to be read.
MI Flashing without DTC
NCEC0032S0101If the ECM is in Diagnostic Test Mode II, MI may flash when engine is running. In this case, check ECM test
mode selector following ªHOW TO SWITCH DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODESº.
How to switch the diagnostic test (function) modes, and details of the above functions are described later.

Diagnostic Test Mode I Ð Bulb CheckNCEC0032S03In this mode, the MI on the instrument panel should stay ON. If it remains OFF, check the MI bulb. Refer to
EL section (ªWARNING LAMPSº) or see EC-QG-354.
Diagnostic Test Mode I Ð Malfunction WarningNCEC0032S04
MI Condition
ON When the malfunction is detected or the ECM's CPU is malfunctioning.
OFF No malfunction.
IThese DTC numbers are clarified in Diagnostic Test Mode II (SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS).
Diagnostic Test Mode II Ð Self-diagnostic ResultsNCEC0032S05In this mode, the DTC and 1st trip DTC are indicated by the number of blinks of the MI.
The DTC and 1st trip DTC are displayed at the same time. If the MI does not illuminate in diagnostic test mode
I (Malfunction warning), all displayed items are 1st trip DTCs. If only one code is displayed when the MI illu-
minates in diagnostic test mode II (SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS), it is a DTC; if two or more codes are
displayed, they may be either DTCs or 1st trip DTCs. DTC No. is same as that of 1st trip DTC. These uni-
dentified codes can be identified by using the CONSULT-II or GST. A DTC will be used as an example for how
to read a code.
A particular trouble code can be identified by the number of four-digit numeral flashes. The ªzeroº is indicated
by the number of ten flashes. The length of time the 1000th-digit numeral flashes on and off is 1.2 seconds
consisting of an ON (0.6-second)-OFF (0.6-second) cycle.
The 100th-digit numeral and lower digit numerals consist of a 0.3-second ON and 0.3-second OFF cycle.
A change from one digit numeral to another occurs at an interval of 1.0 second OFF. In other words, the lat-
ter numeral appears on the display 1.3 seconds after the former numeral has disappeared.
A change from one trouble code to another occurs at an interval of 1.8 second off.
In this way, all the detected malfunctions are classified by their DTC numbers. The DTC ª0000º refers to no
malfunction. (See TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS Ð INDEX, EC-QG-6.)
How to Erase Diagnostic Test Mode II (Self-diagnostic results)
NCEC0032S0501The DTC 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 ªHOW TO SWITCH DIAGNOSTIC TEST
MODESº.)
IIf the battery is disconnected, the DTC will be lost from the backup memory after approx. 24 hours.
IBe careful not to erase the stored memory before starting trouble diagnoses.
