DTC DETECTING CONDITION AND TROUBLE AREA
DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1) Connect scan tool to DLC with ignition switch OFF.
2) Turn ON ignition switch and clear DTC, pending DTC and freeze frame data by using scan tool and warm up
engine completely.
3) Increase vehicle speed to 55 – 60 km/h (35 – 40 mph).
4) Keep driving above vehicle speed for 7 min. or more.
5) Increase vehicle speed to 100 – 110 km/h (60 – 70 mph).
6) Release accelerator pedal and with engine brake applied, keep vehicle coasting and then stop vehicle.
7) Check if pending DTC exists by using scan tool. If not, check if EGR system monitoring test has completed
by using scan tool. If not in both of above checks (i.e., no pending DTC and EGR system monitoring test not
completed), check vehicle conditions (environmental) and repeat Steps 3) through 6).DTC DETECTING CONDITION TROUBLE AREA
During deceleration (engine speed high with closed
throttle position) in which fuel cut is involved, difference
in intake manifold pressure between when EGR valve is
opened and when it is closed is smaller than specified
value.
(2 driving cycle detection logic)•EGR valve
• EGR passage
• Manifold absolute pressure sensor
•ECM (PCM)
WARNING:
When performing a road test, select a place where there is no traffic or possibility of a traffic acci-
dent and be very careful during testing to avoid occurrence of an accident.
Road test should be carried out with 2 persons, a driver and a tester, on a level road.
NOTE:
Check to make sure that following conditions are satisfied when using this “DTC CONFIRMATION
PROCEDURE”.
Intake air temp. : – 8°C (18°F) or higher
Engine coolant temp. : – 8 – 110°C (18 – 230°F)

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.

formed?Go to Step 2. Go to “ENGINE DIAG.
FLOW TABLE” in this
section.
2 Does speedometer indicate vehicle speed? Faulty “BLU/YEL” wire or
poor C51-1-14 connection.
If wire and connection are
OK, intermittent trouble or
faulty ECM (PCM).
Check for intermittent refer-
ring to “INTERMITTENT
AND POOR CONNECTION”
in Section 0A.Go to Step 3.
3 VSS power supply voltage check:
1) With ignition switch OFF, remove VSS
coupler.
2) With ignition switch ON leaving engine
OFF, check voltage between C20-3 and
C20-2 terminal of VSS coupler.
Is voltage 10 – 14 V?Go to Step 4.“BLK/BLU” or “BLK/YEL”
wire open/short.
4 VSS signal harness check:
1) 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?Go to Step 5. Go to Step 6.
