+Cooling fans are operating at high speedApproximately 0.1V
On Board Diagnosis LogicNJEC0663This diagnosis continuously monitors the engine coolant temperature.
If the cooling fan or another component in the cooling system malfunctions, engine coolant temperature will
rise.
When the engine coolant temperature reaches an abnormally high temperature condition, a malfunction is
indicated.

the proper filling method.+Harness or connectors

For more information, refer to ªMAIN 12 CAUSES OF
OVERHEATINGº, EC-756.
CAUTION:
When a malfunction is indicated, be sure to replace the coolant following the procedure in the LC-44,
ªChanging Engine Coolantº. Also, replace the engine oil.
1) Fill radiator with coolant up to specified level with a filling speed of 2 liters per minute. Be sure
to use coolant with the proper mixture ratio. Refer to MA-18, ªEngine Coolant Mixture Ratioº.
2) After refilling coolant, run engine to ensure that no water-flow noise is emitted.

Aiming AdjustmentNJEL0016For details, refer to the regulations in your own country.
Before performing aiming adjustment, check the following.
1) Keep all tires inflated to correct pressures.
2) Place vehicle on flat surface.
3) See that there is no-load in vehicle (coolant, engine oil filled up
to correct level and full fuel tank) other than the driver (or
equivalent weight placed in driver's position).

CAUTION:
Be sure aiming switch is set to ª0º when performing aiming
adjustment on vehicles equipped with headlamp aiming con-
trol.

Aiming Adjustment=NJEL0029Before performing aiming adjustment, make sure of the following.
1) Keep all tires inflated to correct pressure.
2) Place vehicle on level ground.
3) See that vehicle is unloaded (except for full levels of coolant,
engine oil and fuel, and spare tire, jack, and tools). Have the
driver or equivalent weight placed in driver's seat.
Adjust aiming in the vertical direction by turning the adjusting
screw.

1. Set the distance between the screen and the center of the fog
lamp lens as shown at left.
2. Remove front fog lamp rim. For detail, refer to ªBODY ENDº in
BT section.
3. Turn front fog lamps ON.
SEL495X
4. Adjust front fog lamps so that the top edge of the high inten-
sity zone is 152 mm (6.0 in) (Sedan) or 91 to 136 mm (3.58 to
5.35 in) (Hatchback) below the height of the fog lamp centers
as shown at left.
+When performing adjustment, if necessary, cover the head-
lamps and opposite fog lamp.

Electrical Components InspectionNJEL0051FUEL WARNING LAMP OPERATION CHECKNJEL0051S011. Turn ignition switch ªOFFº.
2. Disconnect fuel level sensor unit harness connector B29
(Sedan with Gasoline engine or Hatchback) or B30 (Sedan
with Diesel engine).
3. Connect a resistor (80W) between fuel level sensor unit har-
ness connector terminals 4 and 1 (Sedan with Gasoline engine
or Hatchback) or 1 and 3 (Sedan with Diesel engine).
4. Turn ignition switch ªONº.
The fuel warning lamp should come on.
NOTE:
For QG Engine Only
ECM might store the DTC P0180 during this inspection. If the DTC
is stored in ECM memory, erase the DTC after reconnecting the
fuel level sensor unit and fuel pump harness connector. Refer to

+Check diodes at the combination meter harness connector
instead of on the combination meter assembly. Refer to
EL-185, ªWARNING LAMPº wiring diagrams.
NOTE:
Specification may vary depending on the type of tester. Before
performing this inspection, be sure to refer to the instruction
manual for the tester to be used.
