This check is very important for troubleshooting when ECM (PCM) has detected no DTC and no abnormality has
been found in visual inspection.
Follow the flow table carefully.
STEP
ACTIONYESNO
1Was “ENGINE DIAG. FLOW TABLE” performed?Go to Step 2.Go to “ENGINE DIAG.
FLOW TABLE”.
2Check battery voltage.
Is it 11 V or more?Go to Step 3.Charge or replace
battery.
3Is engine cranked?Go to Step 4.Go to “DIAGNOSIS”
in Section 6G.
4Does engine start?Go to Step 5.Go to Step 7.
5Check idle speed as follows:
1) Warm up engine to normal operating temp.
2) Shift transmission to neutral position for M / T
(“P” position for A / T).
3) All of electrical loads are switched off.
4) Check engine idle speed with scan tool.
See Fig. 1.
Is it 700 – 800 r / min?Go to Step 6.“ENGINE DIAGNO-
SIS TABLE” in this
section.
6Check ignition timing as follows:

SUZUKI scan tool and fix ignition timing to initial
one. See Fig. 2.
2) Remove air cleaner bolt and shift air cleaner
position to observe ignition timing.
3) Using timing light (1), check initial ignition timing.
See Fig. 3.
Is it 5 ± 3 BTDC at specified idle speed?“ENGINE DIAGNO-
SIS TABLE” in this
section.Check ignition control
related parts referring
to Section 6F1.
7Check fuel supply as follows:

SCAN TOOL DATA
As the data values given below are standard values estimated on the basis of values obtained from the normally
operating vehicles by using a scan tool, use them as reference values. Even when the vehicle is in good condition,
there may be cases where the checked value does not fall within each specified data range. Therefore, judgment
as abnormal should not be made by checking with these data alone.
Also, conditions in the below table that can be checked by the scan tool are those detected by ECM (PCM) and
output from ECM (PCM) as commands and there may be cases where the engine or actuator is not operating (in
the condition) as indicated by the scan tool. Be sure to use the timing light to check the ignition timing.
NOTE:

With the generic scan tool, only star () marked data in the table below can be read.

When checking the data with the engine running at idle or racing, be sure to shift M / T gear to the neutral
gear position and A / T gear to the “Park” position and pull the parking brake fully. Also, if nothing or “no
load” is indicated, turn OFF A / C, all electric loads, P / S and all the other necessary switches.

SCAN TOOL DATA DEFINITIONS
FUEL SYSTEM (FUEL SYSTEM STATUS)
Air / fuel ratio feedback loop status displayed as either
open or closed loop. Open indicates that ECM (PCM)
ignores feedback from the exhaust oxygen sensor.
Closed indicates final injection duration is corrected
for oxygen sensor feedback.
CALC LOAD (CALCULATED LOAD VALUE, %)
Engine load displayed as a percentage of maximum
possible load. Value is calculated mathematically us-
ing the formula: actual (current) intake air volume

maximum possible intake air volume x 100%.
COOLANT TEMP.
(ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE, C, F)
It is detected by engine coolant temp. sensor
SHORT FT B1 (SHORT TERM FUEL TRIM, %)
Short term fuel trim value represents short term
corrections to the air / fuel mixture computation. A val-
ue of 0 indicates no correction, a value greater than
0 means an enrichment correction, and a value less
than 0 implies an enleanment correction.
LONG FT B1 (LONG TERM FUEL TRIM, %)
Long term fuel trim Value represents long term correc-
tions to the air / fuel mixture computation. A value of 0
indicates no correction, a value greater than 0 means
an enrichment correction, and a value less than 0 im-
plies an enleanment correction.
MAP (INTAKE MANIFOLD ABSOLUTE
PRESSURE, kPa, inHg)
It is detected by manifold absolute pressure sensor and
used (among other things) to compute engine load.
ENGINE SPEED (rpm)
It is computed by reference pulses from crankshaft
position sensor.
VEHICLE SPEED (km / h, MPH)
It is computed based on pulse signals from vehicle
speed sensor.
IGNITION ADVANCE
(IGNITION TIMING ADVANCE FOR NO.1
CYLINDER, )
Ignition timing of NO.1 cylinder is commanded by
ECM (PCM). The actual ignition timing should be
checked by using the timing light.
INTAKE AIR TEMP. (C, F)
It is detected by intake air temp. sensor and used to
determine the amount of air passing into the intake
manifold as air density varies with temperature.
MAF (MASS AIR FLOW RATE, gm / s, lb / min)
It represents total mass of air entering intake manifold
which is computed based on signals from MAP sen-
sor, IAT sensor, TP sensor, etc.
THROTTLE POS
(ABSOLUTE THROTTLE POSITION, %)
When throttle position sensor is fully closed position,
throttle opening is indicated as 0% and 100% full open
position.
OXYGEN SENSOR B1 S1
(HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR-1, V)
It indicates output voltage of HO2S-1 installed on ex-
haust manifold (pre-catalyst).
OXYGEN SENSOR B1 S2
(HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR-2, V)
It indicates output voltage of HO2S-2 installed on ex-
haust pipe (post-catalyst). It is used to detect catalyst
deterioration.
DESIRED IDLE (DESIRED IDLE SPEED, rpm)
The Desired Idle Speed is an ECM (PCM) internal pa-
rameter which indicates the ECM (PCM) requested
idle. If the engine is not running, this number is not valid.
TP SENSOR VOLT (THROTTLE POSITION
SENSOR OUTPUT VOLTAGE, V)
The Throttle Position Sensor reading provides throttle
valve opening information in the form of voltage.
INJ PULSE WIDTH
(FUEL INJECTION PULSE WIDTH, msec.)
This parameter indicates time of the injector drive
(valve opening) pulse which is output from ECM
(PCM) (but injector drive time of NO.1 cylinder for
multiport fuel injection).
IAC FLOW DUTY (IDLE AIR (SPEED) CONTROL
DUTY, %)
This parameter indicates current flow time rate within
a certain set cycle of IAC valve (valve opening rate)
which controls the amount of bypass air (idle speed).
TOTAL FUEL TRIM (%)
The value of Total Fuel Trim is obtained by putting val-
ues of short Term Fuel Trim and Long Term Fuel Trim
together. This value indicates how much correction is
necessary to keep the air / fuel mixture stoichiomet-
rical.
BATTERY VOLTAGE (V)
This parameter indicates battery positive voltage in-
putted from main relay to ECM (PCM).
