SELF-DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
DWhen an abnormality is detected in one
of the sensors or actuators related to
emission control, the engine warning lamp
(check engine lamp) illuminates or flashes
as a warning to the driver.
DWhen an abnormality is detected in one
of the sensors or actuators, a diagnosis
code corresponding to the abnormality is
output.
DThe engine-ECU records the engine
operating condition when the diagnosis
code is set. This data is called “freezeframe” data.
This data can be read by using the MUT-II,
and can then be used in simulation tests
for troubleshooting. M/T>
DThe RAM data inside the engine-ECU
or engine-A/T-ECU that is
related to the sensors and actuators can
be read by means of the MUT-II. In addition,
the actuators can be force-driven under
certain circumstances.
OTHER CONTROL FUNCTIONS
1. Fuel Pump Control
Turns the fuel pump relay ON so that current
is supplied to the fuel pump while the engine
is cranking or running.
2. A/C Relay Control
Turns the compressor clutch of the A/C
ON and OFF.3. Purge Control Solenoid Valve Control
Refer to GROUP 17.
4. EGR Control Servo Control
Refer to GROUP 17.

4. Sensor 1 indicates the sensor mounted at a position closest to the engine, and sensor 2 indicates
the sensor mounted at the position second closest to the engine.
METHOD OF READING AND ERASING DIAGNOSIS
CODES
Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection
Service Points.
DIAGNOSIS USING DIAGNOSIS 2 MODE
1. Switch the diagnosis mode of the engine control unit
to DIAGNOSIS 2 mode using the MUT-II.
2. Carry out a road test.
3. Take a reading of the diagnosis code and repair the
problem location.
4. Turn the ignition switch to OFF and then back to ON
again.
NOTE
By turning the ignition switch to OFF, the ENGINE-ECU will
switch the diagnosis mode from DIAGNOSIS 2 mode to
DIAGNOSIS 1 mode.
5. Erase the diagnosis codes.
INSPECTION USING MUT-II
DATA LIST AND
ACTUATOR TESTING
1. Carry out inspection by means of the data list and the
actuator test function. If there is an abnormality, check
and repair the chassis harnesses and components.
2. After repairing, re-check using the MUT-IIand check that
the abnormal input and output have returned to normal
as a result of the repairs.
3. Erase the diagnosis code memory.
4. Remove the MUT-II, and then start the engine again and
carry out a road test to confirm that the problem has
disappeared.

NOTE
1. Do not replace the engine-ECU until a through terminal check reveals there are no short/open circuit.
2. Check that the engine-ECU earth circuit is normal before checking for the cause of the problem.
3. After the engine-ECU has detected a malfunction, a diagnosis code is recorded the next time the
engine is started and the same malfunction is re-detected. However, for items marked with a “
L”,
the diagnosis code is recorded on the first detection of the malfunction.
4. Sensor 1 indicates the sensor mounted at a position closest to the engine, and sensor 2 indicates
the sensor mounted at the position second closest to the engine.
