6F1-4 IGNITION SYSTEM (SFI FOR G13)
IGNITION SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC FLOW TABLE
STEPACTIONYESNO
1
Was “ENGINE DIAG. FLOW TABLE” performed?Go to Step 2.Go to “ENGINE DIAG.
FLOW TABLE” in
section 6.
2
Ignition Spark Test
1) Check all spark plugs for condition and type
referring to “Spark Plugs” section.
2) If OK, perform ignition spark test, referring to
“Ignition Spark Test” section.
Is spark emitted from all spark plugs?Go to Step 11.Go to Step 3.
3
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Check
Is DTC stored in ECM (PCM)?Go to applicable DTC
Diag. Flow Table in
section 6.Go to Step 4.
4
Electrical Connection Check
1) Check ignition coil assemblies and high-tension
cords for electrical connection.
Are they connected securely?Go to Step 5.Connect securely.
5
High-Tension Cords Check
1) Check high-tension cord for resistance referring
to “High-Tension Cords” section.
Is check result satisfactory?Go to Step 6.Replace high-tension
cord(s).
6
Ignition Coil Assembly Power Supply and Ground
Circuit Check
1) Check ignition coil assembly power supply and
ground circuits for open and short.
Are circuits in good condition?Go to Step 7.Repair or replace.
7
Ignition Coil Assembly Check
1) Check ignition coil for resistance referring to
“Ignition Coil Assembly” section.
Is check result satisfactory?Go to Step 8.Replace ignition coil
assembly.
8
Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor Check
1) Check crankshaft position sensor referring to
Step 3 and 4 of DTC P0335 Diag. Flow Table in
section 6.
Is check result satisfactory?Go to Step 9.Tighten CKP sensor
bolt, replace CKP
sensor or crankshaft
timing belt pulley.
9
Ignition Trigger Signal Circuit Check
1) Check ignition trigger signal wire for open, short
and poor connection.
Is circuit in good condition?Go to Step 10.Repair or replace.
10
A Known-good Ignition Coil Assembly Substitution
1) Substitute a known-good ignition coil assembly
and then repeat Step 2.
Is check result of Step 2 satisfactory?Go to Step 11.Substitute a known-
good ECM (PCM) and
then repeat Step 2.
11
Ignition Timing Check
1) Check initial ignition timing and ignition timing
advance referring to “Ignition Timing” section.
Is check result satisfactory?System is in good
condition.Check CKP sensor,
crankshaft timing belt
pulley (signal rotor)
and input signals
related to this system.
1. Solenoid valve wire coupler
2. Terminal for shift solenoid-A. (direct clutch solenoid)
3. Terminal for shift solenoid-B. (2nd brake solenoid)
4. 12 V battery
5. Shift solenoid-B. (2nd brake solenoid valve)
6. Shift solenoid-A. (Direct clutch solenoid valve)
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (3 A / T) (VEHICLE WITH WU-TWC) 7B-41
3) Disconnect shift solenoid valve coupler from harness.
4) Apply 12 V to each terminal in solenoid valve coupler and check
to be sure that a click sound is heard from each of shift sole-
noid-A and -B.
If no click sound is heard, check lead wire and connections in oil
pan, and then replace applicable shift solenoid-A or B if wire and
connections are in good condition.
If click sound is heard from each of shift solenoids A and B, shift
solenoid electrical circuits are in good condition. Proceed to
“SHIFT SOLENOID VALVE CHECK” previously described in
this section.
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR CHECK
Check throttle position sensor and its circuit referring to DTC P0121
Flow Table in Section 6 or 6-1.
