AIR CONDITIONING (OPTIONAL) 1B-17
A/C SYSTEM INSPECTION OF ECM AND ITS
CIRCUITS
ECM and its circuits can be checked at ECM wiring couplers by
measuring voltage.
VOLTAGE CHECK
1) Remove ECM from vehicle by referring to “ECM (PCM)
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION” in Section 6E1.
2) Connect ECM couplers (1) to ECM (2).
3) Check voltage at each terminal of couplers connected.CAUTION:
ECM cannot be checked by itself. It is strictly prohibited
to connect voltmeter or ohmmeter to ECM with couplers
disconnected from it.
NOTE:
As each terminal voltage is affected by the battery volt-
age, confirm that it is 11 V or more when ignition switch
is ON position.

WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with a Air Bag System
Service on or around air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an autho-
rized suzuki dealer. Please observe all WARNINGS and CAUTIONS in SECTION 10B and Precau-
tions, Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location view in Section 10B before performing
service on or around air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could
result in unintended activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these
two conditions may result in severe injury.
Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
“LOCK” position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system
may be deployed by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).
NOTE:
All steering gear fasteners are important attaching parts in that they could affect the performance of
vital parts and systems, and/or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with one
of the same part number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not use a
replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified dur-
ing reassembly to assure proper retention of these parts.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
SYSTEM COMPONENTS
This power steering (P/S) system consists of a P/S control module, a torque sensor, a motor and clutch installed
to the steering column.
In this system, the P/S control module determines the level and direction of the assist force for the steering
wheel according to the signals from the torque sensor and the vehicle speed, runs the motor so as to assist
operation of the steering wheel.
P/S control module diagnoses troubles which may occur in the area including the following components when
the ignition switch is ON and the engine is running. When P/S control module detects malfunction, it stops the
motor and clutch control.
Torque sensor
Vehicle speed sensor (VSS) circuit
Engine speed signal circuit
Motor
Clutch
P/S control module
NOTE:
The location of steering wheel/column and ECM to RH steering vehicle are opposite to those location
to LH steering vehicle.

3B1-4 ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING (P/S) SYSTEM
DIAGNOSIS
The P/S system in this vehicle is controlled by P/S control module. P/S control module has an on-board diagnos-
tic system which detects a malfunction in this system.
When diagnosing troubles, be sure to have full understanding of the outline of “ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYS-
TEM” and each item in “PRECAUTION IN DIAGNOSING TROUBLE” and execute diagnosis according to “SYS-
TEM CHECK FLOW TABLE”.
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
P/S control module performs on-board diagnosis (self-diagnosis)
on the system and operates “EPS” warning lamp (1) (malfunction
indicator lamp) as follows.
Malfunction indicator lamp (“EPS” warning lamp) lights when
the ignition switch is turned to ON position (but the engine at
stop) regardless of the condition of P/S control system. This
is only to check the malfunction indicator lamp (“EPS” warn-
ing lamp) bulb and its circuit.
If the areas monitored by P/S control module is free from any
trouble after the engine start (while engine is running), mal-
function indicator lamp (“EPS” warning lamp) turns OFF.
When P/S control module detects a trouble which has
occurred in the areas it monitors, malfunction indicator lamp
(“EPS” warning lamp) turns ON while the engine is running
to warn the driver of such occurrence of trouble and at the
same time it stores the exact trouble area in memory inside
of P/S control module.
PRECAUTIONS IN DIAGNOSING TROUBLES
Take a note of DTC indicated first.
Be sure to read “PRECAUTIONS FOR ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT SERVICE” in Section 0A before inspection
and observe what is written there.
When two or more troubles have occurred, their DTCs are indicated 3 times each starting with the smallest
code number and up.
DTC C1122 (DTC No.22) (engine speed signal failure) is indicated when ignition switch is ON position and
engine is not running but if indication changes to a normal one when engine is started, it means nothing
abnormal.
As DTC is stored in memory of P/S control module, be sure to clear memory after repair by performing the
procedure described in “DTC CLEARANCE”.
1
3B1-6 ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING (P/S) SYSTEM
For identify current DTC, clear history DTC referring to “DTC CLEARANCE” in this section. NOTE:
As execution of “DTC CLEARANCE” will clear all malfunction DTCs, be sure to record all DTCs
before servicing.
When 2 or more codes are indicated, the lowest numbered code will appear first.
If a code not listed on “DTC TABLE” is displayed, then the P/S control module is faulty.
DTC C1122 or DTC No.22 (flashing pattern : 22) is indicated when ignition switch is ON and engine
is not running but if DTC No.12 (flashing pattern : 12) is indicated when engine is started, it means
nothing abnormal.
Current DTC and history DTC can be identified by lighting and flashing of “EPS” warning lamp.
“EPS” warning lamp operates as follow depending on the trouble condition.
Current DTC is set.
(Abnormality exists at
present.)History DTC is set only.
(Faulty condition occurred
once in the past but normal
condition is restored at
present.)Current DTC and history
DTC exist.
