NOTE:
Before starting engine, place transmission gear shift lever in
“Neutral” (shift selector lever to “P” range for A/T model), and
set parking brake.
INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
1) Connect SUZUKI scan tool (1) to DLC (2) with ignition switch
OFF.
2) Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
3) Make sure that all of electrical loads except ignition are
switched off.
4) Check to be sure that idle speed is within specification.
(Refer to SECTION 6E1)
5) Set timing light to No.1 high-tension cord.
6) Fix ignition timing to initial one as follows:
Select “MISC” made on SUZUKI scan tool and fix ignition tim-
ing to initial one.
7) Using timing light, check that timing is within specification.
Initial ignition timing (Ignition timing fixed):
5 ±3 BTDC (at idle speed)
Ignition order: 1-3-2
Special Tool
(A): 09900-27301 or 09930-76420
8) If ignition timing is out of specification, loosen flange bolts, ad-
just timing by turning distributor assembly while engine is run-
ning, and then tighten bolts.
Tightening Torque
(a): 15 N
.m (1.5 kg-m, 11.0 lb-ft)
9) After tightening distributor flange bolts, recheck that ignition
timing is within specification.
10) After checking and/or adjusting Initial Ignition Timing, release
ignition timing fixation by SUZUKI scan tool.
11) With engine idling (ignition timing not fixed, idle switch ON and
car stopped), check that ignition timing is about 10 BTDC.
(Constant variation within a few degrees from 10 indicates no
abnormality but proves operation of electronic timing control
system.) Also, check that increasing engine speed advances
ignition timing.
If above check results are not satisfactory, check CTP switch,
test switch terminal circuit and ECM.

6F1-2 IGNITION SYSTEM (SFI FOR G13)
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ignition system is an electronic (distributorless) ignition system. It consists of the parts as described below and
has an electronic ignition control system.

ECM (PCM)
It detects the engine and vehicle conditions through the signals from the sensors, determines the most suitable
ignition timing and time for electricity to flow to the primary coil and sends a signal to the ignitor (power unit) in
the ignition coil assembly.

Ignition coil assembly (including an ignitor)
The ignition coil assembly has a built-in ignitor which turns ON and OFF the current flow to the primary coil accord-
ing to the signal from ECM (PCM). When the current flow to the primary coil is turned OFF, a high voltage is in-
duced in the secondary coil.

High tension cords and spark plugs.

CMP sensor (Camshaft position sensor) and CKP sensor (Crankshaft position sensor)
Using signals from these sensors, ECM (PCM) identifies the specific cylinder whose piston is in the compression
stroke and detects the crank angle.

TP sensor, ECT sensor, MAP sensor and other sensors / switches
Refer to section 6E2 for details.
Although this ignition system does not have a distributor, it has two ignition coil assemblies (one is for No.1 and
No.4 spark plugs and the other is for No.2 and No.3 spark plugs). When an ignition signal is sent from ECM (PCM)
to the ignitor in the ignition coil assembly for No.1 and No.4 spark plugs, a high voltage is induced in the secondary
coil and that passes through the high-tension cords and causes No.1 and No.4 spark plugs to spark simultaneously.
Likewise, when an ignition signal is sent to the ignitor in the other ignition coil assembly, No.2 and No.3 spark plugs
spark simultaneously.

POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM)
The powertrain control module controls the shift solenoid B (2nd
brake solenoid valve) and the shift solenoid A (direct clutch sole-
noid valve) by sending electric signals to them so as to attain auto-
matic gear shift between the 1st and 2nd gears, and the 2nd and
3rd gears. Equipped as PCM sensed parameters are the throttle
position sensor, transmission range switch and vehicle speed sen-
sor. These switch and sensors sense the throttle valve opening, se-
lector lever’s position and vehicle speed, and send those signals to
the powertrain control module. Then, the powertrain control module
opens and closes valves of the above solenoids according to these
signals. The powertrain control module is installed to the underside
of the instrument panel at the driver’s seat side.
GEAR SHIFT CONTROL SYSTEM
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR (TP sensor)
The throttle position sensor consisting of a potentiometer is con-
nected to the throttle valve shaft.
Throttle valve opening signal (output voltage) is transmitted from
throttle position sensor to PCM as voltage signal. PCM uses it as
one of the signals to control transmission gear shift.

DIAGNOSIS
This vehicle is equipped with an electronic transmission control system, which control the automatic shift up and
shift down timing, etc. suitably to vehicle driving conditions.
PCM (ECM) has an On-Board Diagnosis System which detects a malfunction in this system and abnormality of
those parts that influence the engine exhaust emission.
When diagnosing a trouble in transmission including this system, be sure to have full understanding of the outline
of “ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM” and each item in “PRECAUTION IN DIAGNOSING TROUBLE” and
execute diagnosis according to “AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION DIAGNOSTIC FLOW TABLE” given below to ob-
tain correct result smoothly.
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
For automatic transmission control system, PCM (ECM) has follow-
ing functions. Refer to Section 6 or 6-1 for details.

When ignition switch is turned ON with engine at a stop malfunc-
tion indicator lamp (MIL) turns ON to check bulb of MIL.

When PCM detects a malfunction in A / T control system (and / or
a malfunction which gives an adverse effect to vehicle emission)
while engine is running, it makes malfunction indicator lamp in
meter cluster of instrument panel turn ON and stores malfunction
area (DTC) in its memory.
If it detects that continuously 3 driving cycles are normal after de-
tecting a malfunction, however, it makes MIL turn OFF although
DTC stored in its memory will remain.

It is possible to communicate with PCM through data link connect-
er (DLC) by using SUZUKI scan tool (Tech-1).
(Diagnostic information can be checked and erased by using a
scan tool)
