Caution
After carrying out connector inspection, always be sure to
reconnect the connector as it was before.
6. Confirm that there are trouble symptoms. If trouble symptomshave
disappeared, the connector may have been inserted incorrectly and the
trouble symptom mayhave disappeared during inspection.
If it seemsthat trouble symptoms still remain, proceed to the nextpage of
instructions.
7. If trouble symptoms still remain up to this stage, there is a possibility that there is an
open orshort circuit in the harness between the connectors, socheck the harness.
Alternatively, the cause may be a defectiveECU, so try replacing the ECU andcheck
if the trouble symptom disappears.

HARNESS INSPECTION
Check for an open or short circuit in the harness between the terminals which were defective according
to the connector measurements. Carry out this inspection while referring to the electrical wiring manual.
Here, “Check harness between power supply and terminal xx” also includes checking for blown fuses.
For inspection service points when there is a blown fuse, refer to “Inspection Service Points for a Blown
Fuse.”
MEASURES TO TAKE AFTER REPLACING THE ECU
If the trouble symptoms have not disappeared even after replacing the ECU, repeat the inspection procedure
from the beginning.

Insert the special tool (probe, MB991222, in the harness set) into the connector from harness side
(rear side), and connect the tester to this probe. If any tool than specified is used, damage to the
harness and other components will result. Furthermore, measurement should not be carried out by
touching the probe directly against the terminals from the front of the connector. The terminals are
plated to increase their conductivity, so that if they are touched directly by the probe, the plating
may break, which will cause drops in reliability.

PRECAUTIONS BEFORE SERVICE
LEARNING FUNCTION OF GDI ENGINE
1. Purpose
On the GDI engine equipped cars, when replacement of the ECU (for engine control) or resetting
of the battery* has been performed, an idle learning function of the ECU (for engine control) will
be required.
The idle learning function will be completed by running the engine at idle by the following procedure.
NOTE:
*: Disconnection of ECU (for engine control) battery backup power supply (disconnection of battery
terminals or ECU connectors)
2. Idle Learning Procedure
(1) Start the engine, and warm up the engine until its coolant temperature reaches 85°C or higher.
When the engine coolant temperature is 85°C or higher, you have only to turn the ignition
switch to the ON position.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK (OFF) position, and stop the engine.
(3) After lapse of ten or more seconds, restart the engine.
(4) Run the engine at idle for ten minutes under the following conditions.
DTransmission: Neutral (P range for automatic transmission)
DAir conditioner and heater: Not operational
DEngine coolant temperature: 83°C or higher
(5) Stop the engine.
(6) Restart the engine, and run it at idle for ten minutes under the following condition.
DTransmission: Neutral (P range for automatic transmission)
DAir conditioner: Operational (Temperature set at “maximum cool”, fan at high speed, and
windows fully opened)
DEngine coolant temperature: 83°C or higher
(7) Repeat steps (5) and (6).
NOTE:
1) When the atmospheric temperature is 20°C or more and the air conditioner has continuously
been operated, step (7) may be omitted.
2) During idling operation of the engine in steps (4) and (6), when engine operation switches
from lean operation to stoichiometric operation, engine stall can occur. In this case, clean the
throttle body (throttle valve) thoroughly, and then repeat step (1) and the subsequent steps.

GDI -General Information13A-3
GENERAL INFORMATION
The Gasoline Direct Injection System consists
of sensors which detect the engine conditions,
the engine-ECU or engine-A/T-ECU
which controls the system based on
signals from these sensors, and actuators
which operate under the control of the
engine-ECU or engine-A/T-ECU .The engine-ECU or engine-A/T-ECU
carries out activities such as fuel injection
control, idle speed control and ignition timing
control. In addition, the engine-ECU or
engine-A/T-ECU is equipped with several
diagnosis modes which simplify troubleshooting
when a problem develops.
FUEL INJECTION CONTROL
The injector drive times and injector timing are
controlled so that the optimum air/fuel mixture
is supplied to the engine to correspond to the
continually-changing engine operation condi-
tions.
A single injector for each cylinder is mounted
at the cylinder head. The fuel is sent under
pressure from the fuel tank to the fuel pressure
regulator (low pressure) by the fuel pump (low
pressure). The pressure is regulated by the
fuel pressure regulator (low pressure) and the
fuel regulated is then sent to the fuel pump
(high pressure). The fuel under increased
pressure generated by the fuel pump (high
pressure) is then regulated by the fuel pressure
regulator (high pressure) and is then distributed
to each of the injectors via the delivery pipes.Fuel injection is normally carried out once for
each cylinder for every two rotations of the
crankshaft. The firing order is 1-2-3-4-5-6. This
is called sequential fuel injection.
When the engine is cold or under a severe
load, the “open-loop” control keeps the air/fuel
ratio at a richer than usual level to maintain
driveability. When the engine is under low or
medium loads, the air/fuel ratio becomes leaner
to reduce fuel consumption. When the engine
is running at medium or high loads after having
warmed up, the “closed-loop” control uses the
signal from the oxygen sensor to keep the
air/fuel ratio at the optimum theoretical level.
THROTTLE VALVE OPENING ANGLE CONTROL
This system controls throttle valve opening
angle electronically. The engine-ECU
or engine-A/T-ECU determines how
deeply the accelerator pedal is depressed by
means of the accelerator position sensor (APS).
Then the engine-ECU or engine-A/T-ECU sends a target value of the
throttle valve opening angle to the throttle valve
controller. The throttle valve control servo
operates the throttle valve so that it reaches
the target opening angle.
IDLE SPEED CONTROL
This system maintains engine idle speed at
a predetermined condition by controlling the
air flow that passes through the throttle valve
according to engine idling condition and engine
loads at idling.
The engine-ECU or engine-A/T-ECU
operates the throttle valve control servoso that engine speed is maintained within a
map value. The map value is predetermined
according to engine coolant temperature and
air-conditioning load.
IGNITION TIMING CONTROL
The power transistor located in the ignition
primary circuit turns ON and OFF to control
the primary current flow to the ignition coil. This
controls the ignition timing in order to provide
the optimum ignition timing with respect to the
engine operating conditions. The ignition timingis determined by the engine-ECU or
engine-A/T-ECU from the engine speed,
intake air volume, engine coolant temperature,
atmospheric pressure and injection timing
(intake stroke or compression stroke).
