6-1-122 ENGINE GENERAL INFORMATION AND DIAGNOSIS (H27 ENGINE)
3 Check IAC valve referring to “IAC VALVE
INSPECTION” in Section 6E2.
Is check result as specified?Go to Step 4. IAC valve malfunction, “BLU/
BLK”, “LT GRN/BLK”, “PPL/
BLK”, “GRY/BLU” or “PPL/
YEL” wire open or short or
poor coupler connection.
If all above are OK, substi-
tute a known-good ECM
(PCM) and recheck.
4 Was idle speed within specification in
Step 1?Check for following :
FIA valve, Vacuum leaks, air inhal-
ing, EVAP canister purge control
system, accessory engine load,
stuck of PCV valve, clog of idle air
passage, MAF sensor, TP sensor,
ECT sensor, EGR valve malfunc-
tion (leakage from valve seat), A/C
signal, transmission range switch
signal and power steering switch
signal.Go to Step 5.
5 Was idle speed higher than specification
in Step 1?Go to Step 6. Go to Step 8.
6 Check A/C (input) signal circuit referring
to Step 1 of “Table B-5”. (A/C signal can
be also checked by using SUZUKI scan
tool.)
Is it in good condition?Go to Step 7. A/C signal circuit open or
short, or A/C system mal-
function.
7 Was IAC duty less than about 2% in Step
1 of this table?
Check FIA valve.
Check abnormal air inhaling from
intake manifold, throttle body, PCV
valve and EVAP canister purge
control system.Check TP sensor (closed
throttle position) and ECT
sensor for performance.
If sensors are OK, substitute
a known-good ECM (PCM)
and recheck.
8 Check transmission range switch signal
referring to “INSPECTION OF ECM
(PCM) AND ITS CIRCUIT” in this section.
Is check result satisfactory?Go to Step 9. Transmission range switch
malfunction or its circuits
open or short.
9 Was IAC duty more than about 30% in
Step 1 of this table?Check parts or system which can
cause engine low idle.
Check FIA valve.
Air inhaling from between throttle
body and MAF sensor, EGR valve
malfunction (leakage from valve
seat), accessory engine load, clog
of idle air passage and etc.Substitute a known-good
ECM (PCM) and recheck. Step Action Yes No

WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System:
Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under
“General Description” in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing ser-
vice on or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Ser-
vice Precautions” under “On-Vehicle Service” in air bag system section before performing service
on or around the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in
unintentional activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two
conditions may result in severe injury.
Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
“LOCK” position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system
may be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).
NOTE:
For the descriptions (items) not found in this section, refer to the same section of service manual
mentioned in the FOREWORD of this manual.
Whether following systems (parts) are used in the particular vehicle or not depends on specifica-
tions. Be sure to bear this in mind when performing service work.
–EGR valve
–Warm up three way catalytic converter
–Heated oxygen sensor(s)
–Three way catalytic converter
–CKP sensor
–MAP sensor
