Idle Air Volume LearningNBEC0642
SEF454Y
SEF455Y
DESCRIPTIONNBEC0642S01ªIdle Air Volume Learningº is an operation to learn the idle air vol-
ume that keeps each engine within the specific range. It must be
performed under any of the following conditions:
IEach time IACV-AAC valve, throttle body or ECM is replaced.
IIdle speed or ignition timing is out of specification.
PRE-CONDITIONINGNBEC0642S02Before performing ªIdle Air Volume Learningº, make sure that all of
the following conditions are satisfied.
Learning will be cancelled if any of the following conditions are
missed for even a moment.
IBattery voltage: More than 12.9V (At idle)
IEngine coolant temperature: 70 - 99ÉC (158 - 210ÉF)
IPNP switch: ON
IElectric load switch: OFF
(Air conditioner, headlamp, rear window defogger)
On vehicles equipped with daytime running light systems, if
the parking brake is applied before the engine is started the
headlamp will not illuminate.
ICooling fan motor: Not operating
ISteering wheel: Neutral (Straight-ahead position)
IVehicle speed: Stopped
ITransmission: Warmed-up
For A/T models with CONSULT-II, drive vehicle until ªFLUID
TEMP SEº in ªDATA MONITORº mode of ªA/Tº system indi-
cates less than 0.9V.
For A/T models without CONSULT-II, drive vehicle for 10 min-
utes.
OPERATION PROCEDURENBEC0642S03With CONSULT-IINBEC0642S03011. Turn ignition switch ªONº and wait at least 1 second.
2. Turn ignition switch ªOFFº and wait at least 10 seconds.
3. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
4. Check that all items listed under the topic ªPRE-CONDITION-
INGº (previously mentioned) are in good order.
5. Turn ignition switch ªOFFº and wait at least 10 seconds.
6. Start the engine and let it idle for at least 30 seconds.
7. Select ªIDLE AIR VOL LEARNº in ªWORK SUPPORTº mode.
8. Touch ªSTARTº and wait 20 seconds.
9. Make sure that ªCMPLTº is displayed on CONSULT-II screen.
If ªINCMPº is displayed, ªIdle Air Volume Learningº will not be
carried out successfully. In this case, find the cause of the
problem by referring to the NOTE below.
10. Rev up the engine two or three times. Make sure that idle
speed and ignition timing are within specifications.

BASIC SERVICE PROCEDURE
Idle Air Volume Learning
EC-57

DescriptionNBEC0717The specification (SP) value indicates the tolerance of the value that is displayed in ªDATA MONITOR (SPEC)º
mode of CONSULT-II during normal operation of the Engine Control System. When the value in ªDATA MONI-
TOR (SPEC)º mode is within the SP value, the Engine Control System is confirmed OK. When the value in
ªDATA MONITOR (SPEC)º mode is NOT within the SP value, the Engine Control System may have one or
more malfunctions.
The SP value is used to detect malfunctions that may affect the Engine Control System, but will not light the
MIL.
The SP value will be displayed for the following three items:
IB/FUEL SCHDL (The fuel injection pulse width programmed into ECM prior to any learned on board cor-
rection)
IA/F ALPHA-B1/B2 (The mean value of air-fuel ratio feedback correction factor per cycle)
IMAS A/F SE-B1 (The signal voltage of the mass air flow sensor)
Testing ConditionNBEC0718IVehicle driven distance: More than 5,000 km (3,100 miles)
IBarometric pressure: 101.3 kPa (760.0 mmHg, 29.92 inHg)±3 kPa (22.5 mmHg, 0.89 inHg)
IAtmospheric temperature: 20 - 30ÉC (68 - 86ÉF)
IEngine coolant temperature: 75 - 95ÉC (167 - 203ÉF)
ITransmission: Warmed-up*1
IElectrical load: Not applied*2
IEngine speed: Idle
*1: For A/T models, after the engine is warmed up to normal operating temperature, drive vehicle until ªFLUID
TEMP SEº (A/T fluid temperature sensor signal) indicates less than 0.9V.
*2: Rear window defogger switch, air conditioner switch, lighting switch are ªOFFº. Cooling fans are not oper-
ating. Steering wheel is straight ahead.

Inspection ProcedureNBEC0719NOTE:
Perform ªDATA MONITOR (SPEC)º mode in maximum scale dis-
play.
1. Perform ªBasic Inspectionº, EC-101.
2. Confirm that the testing conditions indicated above are met.
3. Select ªB/FUEL SCHDLº, ªA/F ALPHA-B1º, ªA/F ALPHA-B2º
and ªMAS A/F SE-B1º in ªDATA MONITOR (SPEC)º mode with
CONSULT-II.
4. Make sure that monitor items are within the SP value.
5. If NG, go to ªDiagnostic Procedureº, EC-137.

Diagnostic Procedure (Cont'd)
EC-430

IClean all disassembled parts in the designated liquid or solvent
prior to inspection or assembly.
IReplace oil seals, gaskets, packings, O-rings, locking washers,
cotter pins, self-locking nuts, etc. with new ones.
IReplace inner and outer races of tapered roller bearings and
needle bearings as a set.
IArrange the disassembled parts in accordance with their
assembled locations and sequence.
IDo not touch the terminals of electrical components which use
microcomputers (such as ECMs).
Static electricity may damage internal electronic components.
IAfter disconnecting vacuum or air hoses, attach a tag to indi-
cate the proper connection.
IUse only the fluids and lubricants specified in this manual.
IUse approved bonding agent, sealants or their equivalents
when required.
IUse tools and recommended special tools where specified for
safe and efficient service repairs.
IWhen repairing the fuel, oil, water, vacuum or exhaust
systems, check all affected lines for leaks.
IDispose of drained oil or the solvent used for cleaning parts in
an appropriate manner.
WARNING:
To prevent ECM from storing the diagnostic trouble codes, do
not carelessly disconnect the harness connectors which are
related to the engine control system and TCM (Transmission
Control Module) system. The connectors should be discon-
nected only when working according to the WORK FLOW of
TROUBLE DIAGNOSES in EC and AT sections.
SGI787
PRECAUTIONS FOR MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION
SYSTEM OR ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM
NBGI0001S03IBefore connecting or disconnecting any harness connector for
the multiport fuel injection system or ECM (Engine Control
Module):
Turn ignition switch to OFF position.
Disconnect negative battery terminal.
Otherwise, there may be damage to ECM.
IBefore disconnecting pressurized fuel line from fuel pump to
injectors, be sure to release fuel pressure.
IBe careful not to jar components such as ECM and mass air
flow sensor.
PRECAUTIONS FOR THREE WAY CATALYSTNBGI0001S04If a large amount of unburned fuel flows into the catalyst, the cata-
lyst temperature will be excessively high. To prevent this, follow the
instructions below:
IUse unleaded gasoline only. Leaded gasoline will seriously
damage the three way catalyst.
IWhen checking for ignition spark or measuring engine
compression, make tests quickly and only when necessary.
IDo not run engine when the fuel tank level is low, otherwise the
engine may misfire causing damage to the catalyst.
