6-1-100 ENGINE GENERAL INFORMATION AND DIAGNOSIS (H27 ENGINE)
Evap canister purge system inspection
1) Warm up engine to normal operating temperature.
2) Hoist vehicle so that all wheels rotate freely.
3) Set M/T in “Neutral” or A/T in “P” position and parking brake.
4) Disconnect purge hose (1) from EVAP canister.
5) Place finger against the end of disconnected hose (1) and
check that vacuum is not felt there when engine is running at
idle speed.
6) Release parking brake lever, set transfer in “2H” and M/T in
“1st” or A/T in “L”.
7) Also check that vacuum is felt when engine speed is
increased to higher than about 1,500 r/min. and keep it for 3
min. or more. If check result is not described in steps 5) and
7), check EVAP canister purge valve, wire harness and vac-
uum passage.
Vacuum passage inspection
Start engine and run it at idle speed. With finger placed against
vacuum nozzle (1), check that vacuum is applied.
If it is not applied, clean vacuum passage by blowing compressed
air.
WARNING:
Make sure that transfer is set to “2H” range position for
this check. If it is set to “4H” or “4L” position, front and
rear wheels turn at high speed and a very dangerous sit-
uation may occur.

[A] Fig. for Step 3 / [B] Fig. for Step 4, 6, 7
Fig. for Step 55 VSS visual inspection:
1) Remove VSS referring to “TRANSFER”
section.
2) Check VSS drive and driven gears for
damage and excessive wear.
Are they in good condition?Poor VSS connection or VSS
malfunction.
If connection is OK, substi-
tute a known-good VSS and
recheck.Replace VSS.
6 Speedometer circuit check:
1) With ignition switch OFF, disconnect
G11 coupler from combination meter.
2) With ignition switch ON leaving engine
OFF, check voltage between C20-1 and
C20-2 terminal of VSS coupler.
Is voltage 4 V or more?Substitute a known-good
combination meter and
recheck.Go to Step 7.
7 Cruise control module circuit check (if
equipped):
1) With ignition switch OFF, disconnect
E132 coupler from cruise control mod-
ule.
2) With ignition switch ON leaving engine
OFF, check voltage between C20-1 and
C20-2 terminal of VSS coupler.
Is voltage 4 V or more?Substitute a known-good
cruise control module and
recheck.“BLU/YEL” wire open/
short or faulty ECM
(PCM).
If wire and connection are
OK, substitute a known-
good ECM (PCM) and
recheck.

HEATER INSPECTION
Refer to “HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR (SENSOR 1) HEATER
INSPECTION”
Vehicle speed sensor (VSS)
ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1) Hoist vehicle.
2) Release parking brake lever, set transmission in neutral and
transfer in “2H”.
3) Remove ECM (PCM) cover.
4) Connector voltmeter between VSS terminal C51-3-1 of ECM
(PCM) connector and body ground.
5) Turn ignition switch ON and turn rear right tire slowly with
rear left tire locked.
Voltmeter should indicate deflection between 0 – 1 V and 8 –
14 V a few times while tire (1) is turned one revolution.
If check result is not satisfactory, proceed to flow table of
“DTC P0500” in Section 6-1.
REMOVAL, INSPECTION AND INSTALLATION
Refer to “VSS Removal, Inspection or Installation” in Section 7D.
Manifold absolute pressure sensor
REMOVAL
1) Disconnect negative (–) cable at battery.
2) Disconnect connector from manifold absolute pressure sen-
sor.
3) Remove manifold absolute pressure sensor from intake
manifold.
