WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System:

Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under “Gener-
al Description” in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing service on
or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Service Precau-
tions” under “On-Vehicle Service” in air bag system section before performing service on or around
the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in unintentional
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 activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).

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.

IGNITION TIMING
NOTE:

Ignition timing is not adjustable. If ignition timing is out of
specification, check system related parts.

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
1) Connect SUZUKI scan tool to DLC with ignition switch OFF.
Special Tool
(A): 09931-76011 (SUZUKI scan tool)
(B): Mass storage cartridge
(C): 09931-76030 (16 / 14 pin DLC cable)
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 6E2)

5) Fix ignition timing to initial one as follow.
Select “MISC” mode on SUZUKI scan tool and fix ignition tim-
ing to initial one.
6) Detach air cleaner case and shift air cleaner case and hose
position to observe ignition timing.
7) Using timing light (1), check that ignition timing is within specifi-
cation.
Initial ignition timing (fixed with
SUZUKI scan tool) : 5
3 BTDC at idle speed
Ignition order : 1-3-4-2
8) If ignition timing is out of specification, check the followings:

CKP sensor

Crankshaft timing belt pulley (signal rotor)

TP sensor

VSS

Timing belt cover installation
9) After checking Initial Ignition Timing, release ignition timing
fixation by using SUZUKI scan tool.
10) With engine idling (throttle opening at closed position and ve-
hicle stopped), check that ignition timing is about 9–15
BTDC. (Constant variation within a few degrees from 9–15
indicates no abnormality but proves operation of electronic tim-
ing control system.) Also, check that increasing engine speed
advances ignition timing.
If above check results are not satisfactory, check CKP sensor
and ECM (PCM).
11) Install air cleaner case.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (3 A / T) (VEHICLE WITH WU-TWC) 7B-11
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)
