Fuel and Emissions Systems
System Descriptions (cont'd)
PGM-FI System
The Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-Fl) system is a
sequential multiport fuel injection system.
Air Conditioning {A/C) Compressor Glutch Relay
When the ECfM receives a demand for cooling from the
Ay'C system, it delays the compressor from being
energized, and enriches the mixture to assure smooth
transition to the AVC mode.
Air Fuel Ratio lA/Fl Sensor
The Ay'F Sensor operates over a wide airlfuel range. The
Ay'F Sensor is installed upstream of the TWC, and sends
signals to the ECM which varies the duration of fuel
injection accordingly.
SENSORTERMINALS
HEATERTERMINALS
Barometric Pressure {BAROI Sensor
The BARO sensor is inside the ECM. lt convens
atmospheric pressure into a voltage signal that the ECM
uses to modify the basic duration of the fuel injection
discharge.

Camshaft Position (CMPI Sensor B (Top Dead Center(TDCI Sensor)
The CMP sensor B (TDC sensor) detects the position of
the No. 1 cylinder as a reference for sequential fuel
injection to each cylinder.
Crankshaft Position (CKPI Sensor
The CKP sensor detects crankshaft soeed and
determines ignition timing and timing for fuel injection
of each cylinder as well as detecting engine misfire.
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
The ECT sensor is a temperature dependent resistor(thermistor). The resistance of the thermistor decreases
as the engine coolant temperature increases.
MAGNET
TERMINAL
lgnition Timing Control
The ECM contains the memory for basic ignition timing
at various engine speeds and manifold absolute
pressure. lt also adjusts the timing according to engine
coolant temperature.
Iniector Timing and Duration
The ECM contains the memory for basic discharge
duration at various engine speeds and manifold
pressures. The basic discharge duration, after being
read out from the memory, is further modified by
signals sent from various sensors to obtain the final
discharge duration.
By monitoring long term fuel trim, the ECM detects long
term malfunctions in the fuel system and sets a
Diagnostic Trouble Code {DTC).
Intake Air Temperature (lAT) Sensor
The IAT sensor is a temperature dependent resistor
{thermistor). The resistance of the thermistor decreases
as the intake air temDerature increases.
Knock Sensor
The knock control system adjusts the ignition timing to
minimize knock.
PIEZOCERAMIC
Malfunction Indicator Lamp lMlLl Indication {ln relation
to Readiness Codes)
The vehicle has certain "readiness codes" that are part
of the on-board diagnostics for the emissions systems.
lf the vehicle's baftery has been disconnected or gone
dead. if the DTCS have been cleared, or if the ECM has
been reset. these codes are set to incomplete. In some
states, part of the emissions testing is to make sure
these codes are set to comDlete. lf all of them are not
set to complete, the vehicle may fail the test and the
test cannot be finished.
To check if the readiness codes are set to complete,
turn the ignition switch ON (ll). but do not start the
engine.TheMILwill comeonforlS 20seconds. lf it
then goes off, the readiness codes are set to complete,
lf it blinks severaltimes, one or more readiness codes
are not set to comolete. To set each code, drive the
vehicle or run the engine as described in the
procedures to set them in this section (see page 1 1-46).
Manifold Absolute Pressure {MAP) Senso]
The MAP sensor converts manifold absolute pressure
into electrical signals to the ECM.

ldle Control System
When the engine is cold, the Ay'C compressor is on, the
transmission is in gear, the brake pedal is pressed. thepower steering load is high, or the alternator is
charging, the ECIM controls current to the ldle Air
Control (lAC) valve to maintain the correct idle speed.
Refer to the System Diagram to see the functional
layout of the system.
Brake Pedal Position Switch
The brake pedal position switch signals the ECM when
the brake pedal is oressed.
Electrical Power Steering (EPS) Senser
The EPS sensor signals the ECM when the power
steering load is high.
ldle Air Control llACl Valve
To maintain the proper idle speed, the IAC valve
changes the amount of air bypassing the throttle body
in response to an electrical signal from the ECM.

Fuel Supply System
Fuel Cut-off Control
During deceleration with the throttle valve closed,
current to the injectors is cut off to improve fuel
economy at engine speeds over 1,030 rpm. Fuel cut-off
action also occurs when engine speed exceeds
6,900 rpm, regardless of the position of the throttle
valve, to protect the engine from over-rewing. When
the vehicle is stopped. the ECM cuts the fuel at engine
speeds over 6,500 rpm.
Fuel Pump Control
When the ignition is turned on, the ECM grounds the
PGM-Fl main relay which feeds current to the fuel pump
for 2 seconds to pressurize the fuel system, With the
engine running. the ECM grounds the PGM-Fl main
relay and feeds current to the fuel pump. When the
engine is not running and the ignition is on, the ECI\4
cuts ground to the PGM-Fl main relay which cuts
current to the fuel pump.
PGM-FI Main Relay 1 and 2
The PGM-Fl main relay consists of two separate relays.
Relay 1 is energized whenever the ignition switch is ON(ll) to supply battery voltage to the ECM power to the
injectors, and power for relay, Relay 2 is energized to
supply power to the fuel pump for 2 seconds when the
ignition switch is turned ON (ll), and when the engine is
runnrng.

How to Set Readiness Codes
Malfunction lndicator Lamp (MlL) Indication
(ln relation to Readiness Codesl
The vehicle has certain "readiness codes" that are part
of the on-board diagnostics for the emissions systems.
lf the vehicle's battery has been disconnected or gone
dead, if the DTCS have been cleared, or if the ECM has
been reset, these codes are set to incomplete. In some
states, part of the emission testing is to make su re these
codes are set to complete. lf all of them are not set to
complete, the vehicle may fail the emission test, or the
test cannot be finished.
To check ifthe readiness codes are complete, turn the
ignition switch ON (ll), but do not start the engine. The
MIL will come on for 15 20 seconds. lf it then goes off,
the readiness codes are complete. lf it blinks several
times, one or more readiness codes are not complete.
To set readlness codes from incomplete to complete.
do the procedure for the appropriate code.

NOTE:. Do not turn the ignition switch off during the
procedure.
. All readiness codes are cleared when the battery is
disconnected or when the ECM is cleared with the
OBD ll scan tool or Honda PG lvl Tester.. Low ambient temperatures or excessive slop-and-go
traffic may increase the drive time needed to switch
the readiness code from incomplete to complete.' The readiness code will not switch to com Dlete until
all the enable criteria are met.. lf a fault in the secondary HO2S system caused the
MIL to come on. the readiness code cannot be set to
comDlete until vou correct the fault.
Enable Criteria. ECT at 158"F (70'C) or higher.. Intake air temperature (lAT) at 20"F (-7'C) or higher.. Vehicle speed is steady, and vehicle speed sensor

Procedure
1. Connect the scan tool to the vehicle's data link \
connector (DLCi, and bring up the tool's generic \"
OBD ll mode.
Start the engine.
Test-drive the vehicle under stop-and-go conditions
with short periods of steady cruise. After about
5 miles (3 km), the readiness code should switch
from incomplete to complete.
lf the readiness code is still set to incomplete, check
for a temporary DTC. lf there is no DTC, one or
more of the enable crlteria were probably not met;

4. lf the readinesscode isstill setto incomplete, check
for a temporary DTC. lf there is no DTC, one or
more of the enable criteria were probably not met;
repeat the procedure.
Air Fuel Ratio (A/Fl Sensor Monitor and
