WARM-UP CYCLE
A warm-up cycle means sufficient vehicle operation such that the
coolant temperature has risen by at least 22°C (40°F) from
engine starting and reaches a minimum temperature of 70 °C
(160 °F).
DRIVING CYCLE
A “Driving Cycle” consists of engine startup, driving mode where
a malfunction would be detected if present and engine shutoff.
2 DRIVING CYCLE DETECTION LOGIC
The malfunction detected in the first driving cycle is stored in
ECM (PCM) memory (in the form of pending DTC) but the mal-
function indicator lamp does not light at this time. It lights up at the
second detection of same malfunction also in the next driving
cycle.
PENDING DTC
Pending DTC means a DTC detected and stored temporarily at 1
driving cycle of the DTC which is detected in the 2 driving cycle
detection logic.
FREEZE FRAME DATA
ECM (PCM) stores the engine and driving conditions (in the form
of data as shown in the figure) at the moment of the detection of a
malfunction in its memory. This data is called “Freeze frame data”.
Therefore, it is possible to know engine and driving conditions
(e.g., whether the engine was warm or not, where the vehicle was
running or stopped, where air/fuel mixture was lean or rich) when
a malfunction was detected by checking the freeze frame data.
Also, ECM (PCM) has a function to store each freeze frame data
for three different malfunctions in the order as the malfunction is
detected. Utilizing this function, it is possible to know the order of
malfunctions that have been detected. Its use is helpful when
rechecking or diagnosing a trouble.

ENGINE GENERAL INFORMATION AND DIAGNOSIS (H27 ENGINE) 6-1-9
On-Board Diagnostic System (Vehicle with
Monitor Connector)
ECM diagnosis troubles which may occur in the area including the
following parts when the ignition switch is ON and the engine is
running, and indicates the result by turning on of flashing mal-
function indicator lamp (1).
• Heated oxygen sensor (if equipped)
•ECT sensor
•TP sensor
• IAT sensor
• CMP sensor
•MAF sensor
• Knock sensor
• EGR (if equipped)
•VSS
• CPU (Central Processing Unit) of ECM
ECM and malfunction indicator lamp (1) operate as follows.
• Malfunction indicator lamp (1) light when the ignition switch
is turned ON (but the engine at stop) with the diagnosis
switch terminal ungrounded regardless of the condition of
Engine and Emission control system. This is only to check
the malfunction indicator lamp (1) bulb and its circuit.
• If the above areas of Engine and Emission control system is
free from any trouble after the engine start (while engine is
running), malfunction indicator lamp (1) turns OFF.
• When ECM detects a trouble which has occurred in the
above areas, it makes malfunction indicator lamp (1) turn ON
while the engine is running to warn the driver of such occur-
rence of trouble and at the same time it stores the trouble
area in ECM back-up memory. (The memory is kept as it is
even if the trouble was only temporary and disappeared
immediately. And it is not erased unless the power to ECM is
shut off for specified time.)
ECM also indicates trouble area in memory by means of
flashing of malfunction indicator lamp (1) at the time of
inspection. (i.e. when diagnosis switch terminal (2) is con-
nected to ground terminal (3) with a service wire and ignition
switch is turned ON.)
NOTE:
When a trouble occurs in the above areas and disappears
soon while the diagnosis switch terminal is ungrounded
and the engine is running, malfunction indicator lamp (1)
lights and remains ON as the trouble exists but it turns
OFF when the normal condition is restored.

6-1-16 ENGINE GENERAL INFORMATION AND DIAGNOSIS (H27 ENGINE)
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) Check
1) Turn ON ignition switch (but the engine at stop) and check
that MIL (1) lights.
If MIL does not light up, go to “Diagnostic Flow Table A-1” for
troubleshooting.
2) Start engine and check that MIL turns OFF.
3) If MIL remains ON, and no DTC is stored in ECM (PCM), go
to “Diagnostic Flow Table A-2” for troubleshooting.
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Check
[Using SUZUKI scan tool]
1) Prepare generic scan tool or SUZUKI scan tool (2).
2) With ignition switch OFF, connect it to data link connector
(DLC) (3) located on underside of instrument panel at
driver’s seat side.
Special tool
(A) : SUZUKI scan tool
3) Turn ignition switch ON and confirm that MIL lights.
4) Read DTC and freeze frame data according to instructions
displayed on scan tool and print them or write them down.
Refer to scan tool operator’s manual for further details.
If communication between scan tool and ECM (PCM) is not
possible, check if scan tool is communicable by connecting it
to ECM (PCM) in another vehicle. If communication is possi-
ble in this case, scan tool is in good condition. Then check
data link connector and serial data line (circuit) in the vehicle
with which communication was not possible.
5) After completing the check, turn ignition switch off and dis-
connect scan tool from data link connector.

Scan Tool Data
As the data values given below are standard values estimated on the basis of values obtained from the normally
operating vehicles by using a scan tool, use them as reference values. Even when the vehicle is in good condi-
tion, there may be cases where the checked value does not fall within each specified data range. Therefore,
judgment as abnormal should not be made by checking with these data alone.
Also, conditions in the below table that can be checked by the scan tool are those output from ECM (PCM) as
Commands and there may be cases where the engine or actuator is not operating (in the condition) as indicated
by the scan tool. Be sure to use the timing light to check the ignition timing referring to Section 6F2.
NOTE:
For asterisk (
✱) marked item in “OTHER” column, item can be read only SUZUKI scan tool.
When checking the data with the engine running at idle or racing, be sure to shift M/T gear to the
neutral gear position and A/T gear to the “Park” position and pull the parking brake fully. Also, if
nothing or “no load” is indicated, turn OFF A/C, all electric loads, P/S and all the other necessary
switches.

Scan tool data definitions
COOLANT TEMP (Engine Coolant Temp., °C/°F)
It is detected by engine coolant temp. sensor.
INTAKE AIR TEMP (°C/°F)
It is detected by intake air temp. sensor.
DESIRE IDLE (Desired Idle Speed RPM)
The desired idle speed is an ECM (PCM) internal parameter which indicates the ECM (PCM) requested idle. If
the engine is not running, the number is not valid.
CLOSED THROT POS (Closed Throttle Position ON/OFF)
This parameter will read ON when the throttle valve is fully closed. Or OFF when the throttle is not fully closed.
IAC FLOW DUTY (%)
This parameter indicates IAC valve opening rate which controls bypass air flow.
ENGINE SPEED (RPM)
It is computed by reference pulses from the Camshaft Position Sensor.
SHORT FT B1 (Short Term Fuel Trim Bank 1, %) / SHORT FT B2 (Short Term Fuel Trim Bank 2, %)
Short term fuel trim value represents short term corrections to the air/fuel mixture computation. A value of 0 indi-
cates no correction, a value greater than 0 means an enrichment correction, and a value less than 0 implies an
enleanment correction.
LONG FT B1 (Long Term Fuel Trim Bank 1, %) / LONG FT B2 (Long Term Fuel Trim Bank 2, %)
Long term fuel trim value represents long term corrections to the air/fuel mixture computation. A value of 0 indi-
cates no correction, a value greater than 0 means an enrichment correction, and a value less than 0 implies an
enleanment correction.
IGNITION ADVANCE (Ignition Timing Advance For No.1 Cylinder, °)
Ignition timing of No.1 cylinder is commanded by ECM (PCM). The actual ignition timing should be checked by
using the timing light.
BATTERY VOLTAGE (V)
This parameter indicates battery positive voltage inputted from main relay to ECM (PCM).
MAF (Mass Air Flow Rate, g/s, lb/min)
It represents total mass of air entering intake manifold which is measured by mass air flow sensor.
INJ PULSE WIDTH B1 (Fuel Injection Pulse Width Bank 1, msec) / INJ PULSE WIDTH B2 (Fuel Injec-
tion Pulse Width Bank 2, msec)
This parameter indicates time of the injector drive (valve opening) pulse which is output from ECM (PCM).
THROTTLE POS (Absolute Throttle Position, %)
When throttle position sensor is fully closed position, throttle opening is indicated as 0 % and 100 % for full open
position.

ENGINE GENERAL INFORMATION AND DIAGNOSIS (H27 ENGINE) 6-1-29
EGR VALVE (%)
This parameter indicates opening rate of EGR valve which controls the amount of EGR flow.
A/C SWITCH (ON/OFF)
ON : Command for operation being output from A/C amplifier to compressor.
OFF : Command for operation not being output.
PSP SWITCH (ON/OFF)
ON : PSP switch detects P/S operation. (high P/S pressure)
OFF : PSP switch not detects P/S operation.
PNP SIGNAL (Transmission Range Switch, P/N or D range)
Whether the transmission range switch (P/N position switch) at P or N range or at R, D, 2 or L range is displayed.
If at P or N range, “P/N range” is displayed and if at R, D, 2 or L range, “D range” is displayed.
FUEL TANK LEVEL (%)
This parameter indicates approximate fuel level in the fuel tank. As the detectable range of the fuel level sensor
is set as 0 to 100 %, however, with some models whose fuel tank capacity is smaller, the indicated fuel level may
be only 70 % even when the fuel tank is full.
ELECTRIC LOAD (ON/OFF)
ON : Small light switch ON or rear window defogger switch ON.
OFF : Small light switch OFF and rear window defogger switch OFF.
VSS (4-A/T) (km/h, MPH)
It is computed by using pulse signals from vehicle speed sensor on 4-speed automatic transmission.
THROT POS LEVEL (Throttle Position Level For 4-A/T, “0”, “1”, “2”, “3”, “4”,“5”,“6” or “7”)
This parameter indicates which level (zone) the throttle valve opening is in.
The throttle opening is divided into 8 levels (zones) from “0” (about idle position) to “7” (about full open) and sig-
nals are assigned to each opening level (zone). PCM controls the automatic gear change of the automatic trans-
mission by using these signals according to the signal from the TP sensor.
