DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
WARNING:
When performing a road test, select a place where there is no traffic or possibility of a traffic accident
and be very careful during testing to avoid occurrence of an accident.
Road test should be carried out with 2 persons, a driver and a tester, on a level road.
1) Turn ignition switch OFF.
Clear DTC with ignition switch ON, check vehicle and environmental condition for:
–Altitude (barometric pressure): 2400 m, 8000 ft or less (560 mmHg, 75 kPa or more)
–Ambient temp.: –10C, 14F or higher
–Intake air temp.: 70C, 158F or lower
–No exhaust gas leakage and loose connection
2) Warm up engine to normal operating temperature.
3) Drive vehicle under usual driving condition for 5 min. and check HO2S-2 output voltage and “short term fuel
trim” with “Data List” mode on scan tool, and write it down.
4) Stop vehicle (don’t turn ignition switch OFF).
5) Increase vehicle speed to higher than 20 mph, 32 km / h and then stop vehicle.
6) Repeat above steps 5) 4 times.
7) Increase vehicle speed to about 50 mph (80 km / h) in 3rd gear or 2 range.
8) Release accelerator pedal and with engine brake applied, keep vehicle coasting (fuel cut condition) for 10sec.
or more.
9) Stop vehicle (don’t turn ignition switch OFF) and run engine at idle for 2 min.
After this step 9), if “Oxygen Sensor Monitoring TEST COMPLETED” is displayed in “READINESS TESTS”
mode and DTC is not displayed in “DTC” mode, confirmation test is completed.
If “TEST NOT COMPLTD” is still being displayed, proceed to next step 10).
10) Drive vehicle under usual driving condition for 10 min. (or vehicle is at a stop and run engine at idle for 10 min.
or longer)
11) Stop vehicle (don’t turn ignition switch OFF). Confirm test results according to “Test Result Confirmation Flow
Table” in “DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE” of DTC P0420.

DTC P0300 RANDOM MISFIRE DETECTED (Misfire detected at 2 or more
cylinders)
DTC P0301 CYLINDER 1 MISFIRE DETECTED
DTC P0302 CYLINDER 2 MISFIRE DETECTED
DTC P0303 CYLINDER 3 MISFIRE DETECTED
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
ECM (PCM) monitors crankshaft revolution speed and engine speed via the crankshaft position sensor and cylin-
der No. via the camshaft position sensor. Then it calculates the change in the crankshaft revolution speed and from
how many times such change occurred in every 200 or 1000 engine revolutions, it detects occurrence of misfire.
When ECM (PCM) detects a misfire (misfire rate per 200 revolutions) which can cause overheat and damage to
the three way catalytic converter, it makes the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) flash as long as misfire occurs at
that rate.
After that, however, when the misfire rate drops, MIL remains ON until it has been judged as normal 3 times under
the same driving conditions.
Also, when ECM (PCM) detects a misfire (misfire rate per 1000 revolutions) which will not cause damage to three
way catalytic converter but can cause exhaust emission to be deteriorated, it makes MIL light according to the 2
driving cycle detection logic.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
ECM (PCM) monitors oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas which has passed the three way catalytic converter
by HO2S-2.
When the catalyst is functioning properly, the variation cycle of HO2S-2 output voltage (oxygen concentration) is
slower than that of HO2S-1 output voltage because of the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas which has been
stored in the catalyst.

PRECAUTION ON FUEL SYSTEM SERVICE
Work must be done with no smoking, in a well-ventilated area and
away from any open flames.
As fuel feed line (between fuel pump and fuel delivery pipe) is still
under high fuel pressure even after engine was stopped, loosen-
ing or disconnecting fuel feed line directly may cause dangerous
spout of fuel to occur where loosened or disconnected.
Before loosening or disconnecting fuel feed line, make sure to re-
lease fuel pressure according to “FUEL PRESSURE RELIEF
PROCEDURE”. A small amount of fuel may be released after the
fuel line is disconnected. In order to reduce the chance of person-
al injury, cover the fitting to be disconnected with a shop cloth. Put
that cloth in an approved container when disconnection is com-
pleted.
Never run engine with fuel pump relay disconnected when engine
and exhaust system are hot.
Fuel or fuel vapor hose connection varies with each type of pipe.
When reconnecting fuel or fuel vapor hose, be sure to connect
and clamp each hose correctly referring to left figure Hose Con-
nection.
After connecting, make sure that it has no twist or kink.
When installing injector or fuel delivery pipe, lubricate its O-ring
with spindle oil or gasoline.
When connecting fuel pipe flare nut, first tighten flare nut by hand
and then tighten it to specified torque.

ENGINE DIAGNOSIS
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This vehicle is equipped with an engine and emission control system which are under control of ECM (PCM).
The engine and emission control system in this vehicle are controlled by ECM (PCM). ECM (PCM) has an On-
Board Diagnostic system which detects a malfunction in this system and abnormality of those parts that influence
the engine exhaust emission. When diagnosing engine troubles, 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 ac-
cording to “ENGINE DIAGNOSTIC FLOW TABLE”.
There is a close relationship between the engine mechanical, engine cooling system, ignition system, exhaust sys-
tem, etc. and the engine and emission control system in their structure and operation. In case of an engine trouble,
even when the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) doesn’t turn ON, it should be diagnosed according to this flow table.
ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
ECM (PCM) in this vehicle has following functions.
When the ignition switch is turned ON with the engine at a stop,
malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) (1) turns ON to check the bulb
of the malfunction indicator lamp (1).
When ECM (PCM) detects a malfunction which gives an adverse
effect to vehicle emission while the engine is running, it makes the
malfunction indicator lamp (1) in the meter cluster of the instru-
ment panel turn ON or flash (flashing only when detecting a mis-
fire which can cause damage to the catalyst) and stores the mal-
function area in its memory.
(If it detects that continuously 3 driving cycles are normal after de-
tecting a malfunction, however, it makes MIL (1) turn OFF al-
though DTC stored in its memory will remain.)
As a condition for detecting a malfunction in some areas in the
system being monitored by ECM (PCM) and turning ON the mal-
function indicator lamp (1) due to that malfunction, 2 driving cycle
detection logic is adopted to prevent erroneous detection.
When a malfunction is detected, engine and driving conditions
then are stored in ECM (PCM) memory as freeze frame data. (For
the details, refer to description on Freeze frame data.)
It is possible to communicate by using not only SUZUKI scan tool
(Tech-1) (2) but also generic scan tool. (Diagnostic information
can be accessed by using a scan tool.)
