GENERAL INFORMATION 0A-9

When disconnecting vacuum hoses, attach a tag describing
the correct installation positions so that the hoses can be re-
installed correctly.

After servicing fuel, oil, coolant, vacuum, exhaust or brake
systems, check all lines related to the system for leaks.

For vehicles equipped with fuel injection systems, never dis-
connect the fuel line between the fuel pump and injector
without first releasing the fuel pressure, or fuel can be
sprayed out under pressure.
PRECAUTIONS FOR CATALYTIC CONVERTER
For vehicles equipped with a catalytic converter, use only un-
leaded gasoline and be careful not to let a large amount of un-
burned gasoline enter the converter or it can be damaged.
± Conduct a spark jump test only when necessary, make it as
short as possible, and do not open the throttle.
± Conduct engine compression checks within the shortest
possible time.
± Avoid situations which can result in engine misfire (e.g.
starting the engine when the fuel tank is nearly empty).

FLUSHING BRAKE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
It is recommended that entire hydraulic system be thoroughly
flushed with clean brake fluid whenever new parts are installed in
hydraulic system.
Periodical change of brake fluid is also recommended.
FLUID PRESSURE TEST(if equipped with
LSPV)
Test procedure for LSPV assembly is as follows.
Before testing, confirm the following.

Fuel tank is filled with fuel fully.

Vehicle is equipped with spare tire, tools, jack and jack handle.
1) Stop vehicle on level floor and place approximately about
200 kg (441 lbs) weight on rear housing so that rear axle weight
800 kg (1764 lb).
Rear axle weight ªLº: 800 kg (1764 lb)
2) Install special tool to front and rear brake.
NOTE:
Special tool should be connected to breather of front (driv-
er's side brake) and rear brakes.

bleeder plug)
(C): 55473-82030 (Air bleeder plug supplied as a spare part)
NOTE:

Special tool (B) is used instead of thread diameter 10 mm
attachment of special tool (A).
So remove the attachment from (A) and install (B) as
shown in figure.

For vehicle with TOKICO brake caliper, use the attach-
ment included in special tool (A).

For identification of brake caliper type, refer to GENERAL
DESCRIPTION in SECTION 5B.

PRECAUTION IN DIAGNOSING TROUBLE

Don't disconnect couplers from PCM (ECM), battery cable from battery, PCM ground wire harness from engine
or main fuse before checking the diagnosis information (DTC, freeze frame data, etc.) stored in PCM memory.
Such disconnection will clear memorized information in PCM memory.

Using SUZUKI scan tool (Tech-1), or also generic scan tool for vehicle without monitor connector, the diagnostic
information stored in PCM memory can be checked and cleared as well. Before its use, be sure to read Operator's
(instruction) Manual supplied with it carefully to have good understanding of its functions and usage.

Priorities for diagnosing troubles (Only for vehicle without monitor connector)
If two or more diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) are stored, proceed to the flow table of the DTC which was de-
tected earliest in the order and follow the instruction in that table.
If no instructions are given, troubleshoot diagnostic trouble codes according to the following priorities.
1. Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) other than DTC P0171 / P0172 (Fuel system too lean / too rich) and DTC
P0400 (EGR flow malfunction)
2. DTC P0171 / P0172 (Fuel system too lean / too rich) and DTC P0400 (EGR flow malfunction)

Be sure to read ªPrecautions for Electrical Circuit Serviceº in Section 0A before inspection and observe what is
written there.

PCM replacement
When substituting a known-good PCM, check for following conditions.
Neglecting this check may result in damage to good PCM.
± All relays and actuators have resistance of specified value.
± MAF sensor, MDP sensor, TP sensor and fuel tank pressure sensor are in good condition. Also, the power
circuit of these sensors is not shorted to the ground.
