speed drops below the idle rpm.

If the signal is interrupted while the
engine is running, an abnormal value
may be indicated.

sor is displayed.
When the engine is stopped, a cer-
tain value is indicated.

“Base fuel schedule” indicates the fuel
injection pulse width programmed into
ECM, prior to any learned on board correc-
tion.

The mean value of the air-fuel ratio feed-
back correction factor per cycle is indicated.

When the engine is stopped, a cer-
tain value is indicated.

This data also includes the data for
the air-fuel ratio learning control.
COOLAN TEMP/S
[°C] or [°F]××

The engine coolant temperature (deter-
mined by the signal voltage of the engine
coolant temperature sensor) is displayed.

When the engine coolant tempera-
ture sensor is open or short-circuited,

Display of heated oxygen sensor 1 signal
during air-fuel ratio feedback control:

and control is being affected toward a
leaner mixture.
LEAN: means the mixture became “lean”,
and control is being affected toward a rich
mixture.

ture ratio feedback control begins.

When the air-fuel ratio feedback is
clamped, the value just before the
clamping is displayed continuously.

DescriptionBBS005CB
The specification (SP) value indicates the tolerance of the value that is displayed in “DATA MONITOR (SPEC)”
mode of CONSULT-II during normal operation of the Engine Control System. When the value in “DATA MONI-
TOR (SPEC)” mode is within the SP value, the Engine Control System is confirmed OK. When the value in
“DATA MONITOR (SPEC)” mode is NOT within the SP value, the Engine Control System may have one or
more malfunctions.
The SP value is used to detect malfunctions that may affect the Engine Control System, but will not light the
MI.
The SP value will be displayed for the following three items:

B/FUEL SCHDL (The fuel injection pulse width programmed into ECM prior to any learned on board cor-
rection)

DescriptionBBS005CP
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
*: This signal is sent to the ECM through CAN communication line.
This mechanism hydraulically controls cam phases continuously with the fixed operating angle of the intake
valve.
The ECM receives signals such as crankshaft position, camshaft position, engine speed, and engine coolant
temperature. Then, the ECM sends ON/OFF pulse duty signals to the intake valve timing control solenoid
valve depending on driving status. This makes it possible to control the shut/open timing of the intake valve to
increase engine torque in low/mid speed range and output in high-speed range.
COMPONENT DISCRIPTION
Intake valve timing control solenoid valve is activated by ON/OFF
pulse duty (ratio) signals from the ECM.
The intake valve timing control solenoid valve changes the oil
amount and direction of flow through intake valve timing control unit
or stops oil flow.
The longer pulse width advances valve angle.
The shorter pulse width retards valve angle.
When ON and OFF pulse widths become equal, the solenoid valve
stops oil pressure flow to fix the intake valve angle at the control
position.

DTC P0117, P0118 ECT SENSORPFP:22630
Component DescriptionBBS005D6
The engine coolant temperature sensor is used to detect the engine
coolant temperature. The sensor modifies a voltage signal from the
ECM. The modified signal returns to the ECM as the engine coolant
temperature input. The sensor uses a thermistor which is sensitive to
the change in temperature. The electrical resistance of the ther-
mistor decreases as temperature increases.

*: These data are reference values and are measured between ECM terminal 72
(Engine coolant temperature sensor) and ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/output voltage. Doing so may result in dam-
age to the ECM's transistor. Use a ground other than ECM terminals, such as the ground.
