TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
lStop the engine. Restart the engine and drive the vehicle at 20 km/h or faster for approximately 200
seconds. Confirm the 4WD warning lamp flashes slowly.
(Check if the value of IMPROPER SIZE TIRE MONITOR is 8 mm or more.)
When the tire size is normal, the value of IMPROPER SIZE TIRE MONITOR will change from 8 mm or
more to 0 - 4 mm (normal condition) after the vehicle is driven 20 km/h or faster for approximately 5
seconds.
2. Tire inspection
lInspection of tire air pressure
lWear condition
lCheck size of the front and rear tires. (No excessive difference should be observed.) Refer toGI-46,

1. Check using the data monitor function of the CONSULT.
Perform inspection by the data monitor function of the CONSULT.
–Check if the vehicle operation changes to 2WD, AUTO, and LOCK modes.
–Check current supplied to the E-TS solenoid valve in AUTO mode.
2. Check using the active test function of the CONSULT.
Using active test mode of CONSULT, supply current to the E-TS solenoid valve and check that the monitor
current becomes close to this supply current.
lThe 4WD/ABS control unit is normal when the difference between E-TS solenoid valve current and the
monitor current is within±10%.
It is necessary to inspect the electronically controlled coupling assembly.
Tight-corner braking symptom occurs when the vehicle is started in AUTO
mode (4WD warning lamp remain OFF).

PRECAUTIONS FOR TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
lBefore performing the trouble diagnosis, always read theGI-3, "PRECAUTIONS"to confirm the general
precautions.
lAfter replacement of ESP/TCS/ABS control unit, steering angle sensor, steering parts, suspension parts,
or tires, and adjustment of alignment, always adjust the neutral position of steering angle sensor before
driving.
lWhen the ESP/TCS/ABS control unit is replaced, check that the label on the computer unit is identical
color.
lAfter completing the trouble diagnosis, always erase the malfunctioning memory.BRC-77, "Functions of
CONSULT-II"
lWhen inspection of the continuity or voltage between units is performed, check the connector terminals for
disconnection, looseness, bend, or collapse. If any malfunction is detected, repair or replace the applica-
ble part.
lIntermittent problems may be caused by a malfunction on harness, connector, or terminal. Move the har-
nesses, harness connectors, or terminals by hand to make sure that there is no contact malfunction.
lIf a circuit tester is used for the check, be careful not to forcibly extend any connector terminal.
lFor self-diagnosis, active test, and work support of ESP/TCS/ABS control unit with CONSULT-II, stop and
connect CONSULT-II and select²ABS².
lCONSULT-II self-diagnosis results are displayed without regard to occurrence timing. In some case, the
later ones (timing value is small) appear on the next screen.
lWhile the self-diagnosis results of CONSULT-II shows a malfunction, if CONSULT-II active test is per-
formed, an engine system malfunction may be indicated. In this case, start the engine to resume the nor-
mal screen.
lESP/TCS/ABS system electronically controls the brake operation and engine output. The following symp-
toms may be caused by the normal operations.
Symptom Symptom description Result
Motor operation noiseDuring ESP, TCS, or ABS operation, sometimes a faint noise can be
heard. This is a motor operation noise in the ESP/TCS/ABS actuator.
Normal
Just after the engine starts, the motor operating noise may be heard.
This is a normal status of the system operation check.
System operation check
noiseWhen the engine starts, a²click²noise may be heard from the engine
compartment. This is a normal status of the system operation check.Normal
ESP/TCS operation
(SLIP lamp ON)When the vehicle is passing through a road where the surface friction
coefficient varies or the wheel speed changes suddenly by downshifting
or depressing of the accelerator pedal fully, TCS may be activated tem-
porarily.
Normal
Cancel the ESP/TCS
function for the
inspection on a chas-
sis dynamometer. Before the speedometer inspection, turn ESP OFF switch off to cancel
the ESP/TCS function.
When the accelerator pedal is depressed on a chassis dynamometer,
the vehicle speed will not increase. This is not malfunction, because
TCS is activated by the wheel speed difference between front and rear.
The warning lamp may also illuminate to show²sensor system failure²in
this case. This is not malfunction either, because the stationary front
wheels are detected. Restart the engine, and drive the vehicle at 30 km/
h or higher to check that the warning lamp no longer illuminates.
ABS operation (Longer stop-
ping distance)The stopping distance may be longer for the vehicles with ABS when the
vehicle is driver on snowy and rough road. When driving on the road like
that, slow down the speed.Normal
Sluggish feelDepending on road circumstances, the driver may have a sluggish feel.
This is not abnormal, because the optimum traction has the highest pri-
ority (safety first) by TCS operation. Sometimes the driver has a slight
sluggish feel against the substantial accelerator pedal operation.Normal

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
lSpecification data are output/input values which are detected or supplied by the ECM at the connector.
* Specification data may not be directly related to their components signals/values/operations.
i.e. Adjust ignition timing with a timing light before monitoring IGN TIMING, because the monitor may show the specification data in
spite of the ignition timing not being adjusted to the specification data. This IGN TIMING monitors the data calculated by the ECM
according to the signals input from the camshaft position sensor and other ignition timing related sensors.
lIf the real-time diagnosis results are NG and the on board diagnostic system results are OK when diagnosing the mass air flow sen-
sor, first check to see if the fuel pump control circuit is normal.

FIRE
PFP:00000
On Board Diagnosis LogicEBS00B5I
When a misfire occurs, engine speed will fluctuate. If the engine speed fluctuates enough to cause the crank-
shaft position (CKP) sensor (POS) signal to vary, ECM can determine that a misfire is occurring.
The misfire detection logic consists of the following two conditions.
1. One Trip Detection Logic (Three Way Catalyst Damage)
On the first trip that a misfire condition occurs that can damage the three way catalyst (TWC) due to over-
heating, the MI will blink.
When a misfire condition occurs, the ECM monitors the CKP sensor (POS) signal every 200 engine revo-
lutions for a change.
When the misfire condition decreases to a level that will not damage the TWC, the MI will turn off.
If another misfire condition occurs that can damage the TWC on a second trip, the MI will blink.
When the misfire condition decreases to a level that will not damage the TWC, the MI will remain on.
If another misfire condition occurs that can damage the TWC, the MI will begin to blink again.
2. Two Trip Detection Logic (Exhaust quality deterioration)
For misfire conditions that will not damage the TWC (but will affect vehicle emissions), the MI will only light
when the misfire is detected on a second trip. During this condition, the ECM monitors the CKP sensor
signal every 1,000 engine revolutions.
A misfire malfunction can be detected on any one cylinder or on multiple cylinders.
DTC Confirmation ProcedureEBS00B5J
CAUTION:
Always drive vehicle at a safe speed.
NOTE:
If “DTC Confirmation Procedure” has been previously conducted, always turn ignition switch “OFF” and wait at
least 10 seconds before conducting the next test.
WITH CONSULT-II
1. Turn ignition switch “ON”, and select “DATA MONITOR” mode with CONSULT-II.
2. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
3. Turn ignition switch “OFF” and wait at least 10 seconds.

EVAP CANISTER PURGE VOLUME CONTROL SOLENOID VALVEPFP:14920
DescriptionEBS00B92
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
This system controls flow rate of fuel vapor from the EVAP canister. The opening of the vapor by-pass pas-
sage in the EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve changes to control the flow rate. The EVAP
canister purge volume control solenoid valve repeats ON/OFF operation according to the signal sent from the
ECM. The opening of the valve varies for optimum engine control. The optimum value stored in the ECM is
determined by considering various engine conditions. When the engine is operating, the flow rate of fuel vapor
from the EVAP canister is regulated as the air flow changes.
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
The EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve uses a ON/
OFF duty to control the flow rate of fuel vapor from the EVAP canis-
ter. The EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve is
moved by ON/OFF pulses from the ECM. The longer the ON pulse,
the greater the amount of fuel vapor that will flow through the valve.
CONSULT-II Reference Value in Data Monitor ModeEBS00B93

ECM Terminals and Reference ValueEBS00B94
Specification data are reference values and are measured between each terminal and body ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring input/output voltage. Doing so may result in dam-
