TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS Ð GENERAL
DESCRIPTION
KA24DE (EURO OBD)
Symptom Matrix Chart
EC-3105
DescriptionNEEC1003The 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
MI.
The SP value will be displayed for the following three items:
+B/FUEL SCHDL (The fuel injection pulse width programmed into ECM prior to any learned on board cor-
rection)
+A/F ALPHA-B1/B2 (The mean value of air-fuel ratio feedback correction factor per cycle)
+MAS A/F SE-B1 (The signal voltage of the mass air flow sensor)
Testing ConditionNEEC1004+Vehicle driven distance: More than 5,000 km (3,107 miles)
+Barometric pressure: 101.3 kPa (1,013 mbar, 760.0 mmHg, 29.92 inHg)±3 kPa (30 mbar, 22.5 mmHg, 0.89
inHg)
+Atmospheric temperature: 20 - 30ÉC (68 - 86ÉF)
+Engine coolant temperature: 75 - 95ÉC (167 - 203ÉF)
+Transmission: Warmed-up*1
+Electrical load: Not applied*2
+Engine 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. For M/T models, drive vehicle for 5
minutes after the engine is warmed up to normal operating temperature.
*2: Rear window defogger switch, air conditioner switch, lighting switch are ªOFFº. Cooling fans are not oper-
ating. Steering wheel is straight ahead.
SEF601Z
Inspection ProcedureNEEC1005NOTE:
Perform ªDATA MONITOR (SPEC)º mode in maximum scale dis-
play.
1. Perform ªBasic Inspectionº, EC-3086.
2. Confirm that the testing conditions indicated above are met.
3. Select ªB/FUEL SCHDLº, ªA/F ALPHA-B1º 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-3120.

This system automatically controls engine idle speed to a specified
level. Idle speed is controlled through fine adjustment of the
amount of air which bypasses the throttle valve via IACV-AAC
valve. The IACV-AAC valve repeats ON/OFF operation according
to the signal sent from the ECM. The camshaft position sensor
detects the actual engine speed and sends a signal to the ECM.
The ECM then controls the ON/OFF time of the IACV-AAC valve
so that engine speed coincides with the target value memorized in
ECM. The target engine speed is the lowest speed at which the
engine can operate steadily. The optimum value stored in the ECM
is determined by taking into consideration various engine
conditions, such as during warm up, deceleration, and engine load
(air conditioner, power steering and cooling fan operation).
SEF040E
COMPONENT DESCRIPTIONNEEC1594S02The IAC valve-AAC valve is moved by ON/OFF pulses from the
ECM. The longer the ON pulse, the greater the amount of air that
will flow through the valve. The more air that flows through the
valve, the higher the idle speed.

Description

On Board Diagnosis LogicNEEC1534If 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.
DTC No. Malfunction is detected when ...Check Items
(Possible Cause)
P1217
1217+Engine coolant temperature reaches an abnormally high
temperature.+Cooling fan (crankshaft driven)
Radiator hose
+Radiator
+Radiator cap
+Water pump
+Thermostat
+Engine coolant temperature sensor
For more information, refer to ªMAIN 11 CAUSES
OF OVERHEATINGº, EC-3348.
CAUTION:
When a malfunction is indicated, be sure to replace the coolant. Refer to MA section, 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 section, ªAnti-freeze Coolant Mixture
Ratioº.
2) After refilling coolant, run engine to ensure that no water-flow noise is emitted.
SEF621W
Overall Function CheckNEEC1535WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious
burns could be caused by high pressure fluid escaping from
the radiator.
Wrap a thick cloth around cap. Carefully remove the cap by
turning it a quarter turn to allow built-up pressure to escape.
Then turn the cap all the way off.
1) Check the coolant level in the reservoir tank and radiator.
Allow engine to cool before checking coolant level.
If the coolant level in the reservoir tank and/or radiator is below
the proper range, skip the following steps and go to ªDiagnos-
tic Procedureº, EC-3345.
2) Confirm whether customer filled the coolant or not. If customer
filled the coolant, skip the following steps and go to ªDiagnos-
tic Procedureº, EC-3345.
