Introduction
The engine has an ECM to control major systems such as fuel
injection control, fuel injection timing control, glow control system,
etc. The ECM accepts input signals from sensors and instantly
drives electronic fuel injection pump. It is essential that both input
and output signals are correct and stable. It is also important that
there are no problems such as vacuum leaks, with the engine.
It is much more difficult to diagnose a problem that occurs intermit-
tently rather than continuously. Most intermittent problems are
caused by poor electric connections or faulty wiring. In this case,
careful checking of suspected circuits may help prevent the unnec-
essary replacement of good parts.
A visual check may not be sufficient to determine the cause of the
problems. An active road test with CONSULT-II or a circuit tester
connected should be performed. Follow the ªWork Flowº on the
next page.
Before undertaking actual checks, take a few minutes to talk with
a customer who approaches with a driveability complaint. The cus-
tomer can supply important information about such problems,
especially intermittent ones. Find out what symptoms are present
and under what conditions they occur. A ªDiagnostic Worksheetº
like the example on the next page should be used.
Start your diagnosis by looking for ªconventionalº problems first.
This will help troubleshoot driveability problems on a vehicle with
an electronically controlled engine.

Diagnostic Worksheet
There are many operating conditions that lead to the malfunction
of engine components. A good understanding of such conditions
can make troubleshooting easier and more accurate.
In general, each customer feels differently about a problem. It is
important to fully understand the symptoms or conditions for a
customer complaint.
Utilize a diagnostic worksheet like the one shown below in order to
organize all the information for troubleshooting.

Description for Work Flow
STEP DESCRIPTION
STEP IGet detailed information about the conditions and the environment when the incident/symptom occurred using the
ªDIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEETº as shown on the next page.
STEP IIBefore confirming the concern, check and write down (print out using CONSULT-II) the Diagnostic Trouble Code
(DTC), then erase the code. (Refer to EC-321). The DTC can be used when duplicating the incident at STEP III &
IV.
Study the relationship between the cause, specified by DTC, and the symptom described by the customer. (The
ªSymptom Matrix Chartº will be useful. Refer to EC-340.)
STEP IIITry to confirm the symptom and under what conditions the incident occurs.
The ªDIAGNOSTIC WORK SHEETº is useful to verify the incident. Connect CONSULT-II to the vehicle in DATA
MONITOR (AUTO TRIG) mode and check real time diagnosis results.
If the malfunction code is detected, skip STEP IV and perform STEP V.
STEP IVTry to detect the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) by driving in (or performing) the ªDTC CONFIRMATION PROCE-
DUREº. Check and read the DTC by using CONSULT-II.
During the DTC verification, be sure to connect CONSULT-II to the vehicle in DATA MONITOR (AUTO TRIG) mode
and check real time diagnosis results.
In case the ªDTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDUREº is not available, perform the ªOVERALL FUNCTION CHECKº
instead. The DTC cannot be displayed by this check, however, this simplified ªcheckº is an effective alternative.
The ªNGº result of the ªOVERALL FUNCTION CHECKº is the same as the DTC detection.
STEP VTake the appropriate action based on the results of STEP I through IV.
If the malfunction code is indicated, proceed to TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR DTC.
If the normal code is indicated, proceed to the BASIC INSPECTION. Refer to EC-338. Then perform inspections
according to the Symptom Matrix Chart. Refer to EC-340.
STEP VIIdentify where to begin diagnosis based on the relationship study between symptom and possible causes. Inspect
the system for mechanical binding, loose connectors or wiring damage using (tracing) ªHarness Layoutsº.
Gently shake the related connectors, components or wiring harness with CONSULT-II set in ªDATA MONITOR
(AUTO TRIG)º mode.
Check the voltage of the related ECM terminals or monitor the output data from the related sensors with CON-
SULT-II. Refer to EC-346.
The ªDIAGNOSTIC PROCEDUREº in EC section contains a description based on open circuit inspection. A short
circuit inspection is also required for the circuit check in the DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE.
Repair or replace the malfunctioning parts.
STEP VIIOnce you have repaired the circuit or replaced a component, you need to run the engine in the same conditions
and circumstances which resulted in the customer's initial complaint.
Perform the ªDTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDUREº and confirm the normal code (Diagnostic trouble code No. 55)
is detected. If the incident is still detected in the final check, perform STEP VI by using a different method from the
previous one.
Before returning the vehicle to the customer, be sure to erase the unnecessary (already fixed) DTC in ECM. (Refer
to EC-321.)

Basic Inspection
Precaution:
Perform Basic Inspection without electrical or mechanical
loads applied;
IHeadlamp switch is OFF,
IAir conditioner switch is OFF,
IRear defogger switch is OFF,
ISteering wheel is in the straight-ahead position, etc.
BEFORE STARTING
1. Check service records for any recent
repairs that may indicate a related
problem, or the current need for
scheduled maintenance.
2. Open engine hood and check the fol-
lowing:
IHarness connectors for improper con-
nections
IVacuum hoses for splits, kinks, or
improper connections
IWiring for improper connections,
pinches, or cuts
3.Using priming pump, bleed air from fuel
system. Refer to ªFuel Filter Checkº in
MA section.
CONNECT CONSULT-II TO THE
VEHICLE.
Connect ªCONSULT-IIº to the data link
connector for CONSULT-II and select
ªENGINEº from the menu.
DOES ENGINE START?
Ye s
ENo
Turn ignition switch to
ªLOCKº position, wait 5
seconds and then start
engine. If engine fails to
start, check diagnostic
trouble code (DTC).
Run engine for 10 minutes.
CHECK IDLE SPEED.
Read engine idle speed in ªDATA
MONITORº mode with CONSULT-II.
725 rpm   50 (in N position)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------OR------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Check idle speed using tachometer
tester.
