Test Mode
IIECMECM fail-safe activating condition
The computing function of the ECM was judged to be malfunctioning.
When the fail-safe system activates (i.e., if the ECM detects a malfunction
condition in the CPU of ECM), the MI on the instrument panel lights to warn
the driver.
However it is not possible to access ECM and DTC cannot be confirmed.
Engine control with fail-safe
When ECM fail-safe is operating, fuel injection, ignition timing, fuel pump
operation and IACV-AAC valve operation are controlled under certain limita-
tions.

Engine speedEngine speed will not rise more than
3,000 rpm
Fuel injectionSimultaneous multiport fuel injection sys-
tem
Ignition timing Ignition timing is fixed at the preset value
Fuel pumpFuel pump relay is ªONº when engine is
running and ªOFFº when engine stalls
IACV-AAC valve Full open
Cooling fansCooling fan relay ªONº (High speed condi-
tion) when engine is running, and ªOFFº
