*5: This indicates items for which ª2 trip detection logicº is used. With this logic, when a logic malfunction is first detected, the
malfunction is temporarily stored in the ECM memory. If the same case is detected again during the second drive test, this
second detection causes the Malfunction Indicator Lamp to light up.
The 2 trip repeats the same mode a 2nd time. (However, the IG switch must be turned OFF between the 1st trip and 2nd
trip),
In the Test Mode, the Malfunction Indicator Lamp lights up the 1st trip a malfunction is detected.wopen in EGR gas temp. sensor circuit

Back±Up Function
If there is trouble with the program in the ECM and the ignition signals (IGT) are not output from
microcomputer the ECM controls fuel injection and ignition timing at predetermined levels as a back±up
function to make it possible to continue to operate the vehicle.
Furthermore, the injection duration is calculated from the starting signal (STA) and the throttle position
signal (IDL). Also, the ignition timing is fixed at the initial ignition timing, 5 BTDC, without relation to
the engine speed.
HINT: If the engine is controlled by the back±up function, the malfunction indicator lamp lights up to
warn the driver of the malfunction but the diagnostic trouble code is not output.

Disconnect the EFI fuse (15A) for 10 sec. or more, with IG switch OFF.
Initiate test mode (Connect terminal TE2 and E1 of data link connector 1 or 2 with IG switch
OFF).
Start the engine and warm up with all ACC switch OFF.
After the engine is warmed up, let it idle for 3 min.
After performing the idling in (3) , perform gradual acceleration with in the range
1,300~1,700 rpm (centered around 1,500 rpm) with the A/C switch ON and D position for A/T
(5th for M /T).
(Take care that the engine speed does not fall below 1,200 rpm when shifting. Gradually
depress the accelerator pedal and keep it. Steady so that engine braking does not occur).
Maintain the vehicle speed at 40 ± 50 mph (64 ± 80 km/h).
Keep the vehicle running for 1 ± 2 min. after starting acceleration.
HINT: If a malfunction exists, the malfunction indicator lamp will light up after approx.
60 sec. from the start of acceleration.
NOTICE: If the conditions in this test are not strictly followed, detection of the mal-
function will not be possible.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The Park/Neutral position switch goes on when the shift lever is in the N or P shift position. When
it goes on the terminal NSW of the ECM is grounded to body ground via the starter relay and theft
deterrent ECU, thus the terminal NSW voltage becomes 0V. When the shift lever is in the D, 2, L or
R position, the Park/Neutral position switch goes off, so the voltage of ECM terminal NSW becomes
battery voltage, the voltage of the ECM internal power source. If the shift lever is moved from the N posi-
tion to the D position, this signal is used for air±fuel ratio correction and for idle speed control (estimated
control), etc. When the Park/Neutral position switch is off, code ª51º is output in the test mode diagnosis.
(This is not abnormal.)

TILT STEERING
The tilt steering is standard on all models.
The steering wheel position can be changed to any of 6 positions..
POWER WINDOW SYSTEM
A power window system is standard on the LE and XLE grade models and optional on the CE grade model. The power
window system includes one±touch auto down and key±off operation functions. The one±touch auto down function
automatically opens the driver's side window fully. The key±off operation function makes it possible to operate the
power windows for approximately 45 seconds after the ignition key is turned to the ACC or LOCK position, if the
front doors are not opened.
DOOR LOCK CONTROL SYSTEM
The door lock control system with 2±step unlock function is standard on the LE and XLE grade model and optional
as a set with the power window system on the CE grade model. With the 2±step function, turning the key once in
the driver's door unlocks the driver's door only. Turning it twice unlocks all the doors.
A key confinement prevention function is provided. When the door is opened and the door lock button is locked
with the key still inserted in the ignition key cylinder, the key confinement prevention mechanism immediately
turns the door lock button to unlock. This prevents the key from being inadvertently locked inside the vehicle.
