IDLE AIR CONTROL SYSTEM CHECK (1.8L DOHC)
Circuit Description
The Engine Control Module (ECM) controls the engine idle
speed with the Idle Air Control (IAC) valve. To increase the
idle speed, the ECM pulls the IAC pintle away from its seat,
allowing more air to pass by the throttle body. To decrease
the idle speed, it extends the IAC valve pintle toward its
seat, reducing bypass air flow. A scan tool will read the
ECM commands to the IAC valve in counts. The higher
counts indicate more air bypass (higher idle). The lower
counts indicate less air is allowed to bypass (lower idle).
Diagnostic Aids
If the idle is too high, stop the engine. Fully extend the Idle
Air Control (IAC) valve with a IAC driver. Start the engine.
If the idle speed is above 800 rpm, locate and repair the
vacuum leak. Also, check for a binding throttle plate or
throttle linkage or an incorrect base idle setting.
Test Description
The number(s) below refer to step(s) on the diagnostic
table.
2. The IAC valve is extended and retracted by the IAC
driver. IAC valve movement is verified by an engine
speed change. If no change in engine speed oc-
curs, the valve can be removed from the throttle
body and tested. Connect the IAC driver to the re-
moved IAC valve and turn the ignition ON. Do not
start the engine.5. This step checks the quality of the IAC valve move-
ment in Step 2. Fully extending the IAC valve may
cause an engine stall. This may be normal.
6. Steps 2 and 5 verify proper IAC valve operation.
This step checks the IAC circuit for a wiring or ECM
fault.
Idle Air Control Valve Reset Procedure
Whenever the battery cable or the Engine Control Module
(ECM) connector or the ECM fuse Ef11 is disconnected or
replaced, the following idle learn procedure must be per-
formed:
1. Turn the ignition ON for 5 seconds.
2. Turn the ignition OFF for 10 seconds.
3. Turn the ignition ON for 5 seconds.
4. Start the engine in park/neutral.
5. Allow the engine to run until the engine coolant is
above 185°F (85°C).
6. Turn the A/C ON for 10 seconds, if equipped.
7. Turn the A/C OFF for 10 seconds, if equipped.
8. If the vehicle is equipped with an automatic trans-
axle, apply the parking brake. While pressing the
brake pedal, place the transaxle in D (drive).
9. Turn the A/C ON for 10 seconds, if equipped.
10. Turn the A/C OFF for 10 seconds, if equipped.
11. Turn the ignition OFF. The idle learn procedure is
complete.

ENGINE COOLING FAN CIRCUIT CHECK – DUAL FAN
(1.4L/1.6L DOHC)
Circuit Description
The engine cooling fan circuit operates the main cooling
fan and the auxiliary cooling fan. The cooling fans are con-
trolled by the engine control module (ECM) based on in-
puts from the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor
and the Air Conditioning Pressure (ACP) sensor. The
ECM controls the low speed cooling fan operation by inter-
nally grounding the ECM connector terminal 10. This ener-
gizes the low speed cooling fan relay and operates the
main cooling fan and the auxiliary cooling fan at low speed
as the cooling fans are connected in a series circuit. The
ECM controls the high speed cooling fan operation by in-
ternally grounding the ECM connector terminal 10 and the
ECM connector terminal 9 at the same time. This ener-
gizes the low speed cooling fan relay, the high speed cool-
ing fan relay, and the series/parallel cooling fan relay re-
sulting in high speed fan operation as the cooling fans are
now connected in a parallel circuit.
Diagnostic Aids
S If the owner complained of an overheating problem,
it must be determined if the complaint was due to
an actual boil over, or the engine coolant tempera-
ture gauge indicated overheating. If the engine is
overheating and the cooling fans are on, the cooling
system should be checked.
S If the engine fuse block fuses Ef11 become open
(blown) immediately after installation, inspect for a
short to ground in the wiring of the appropriate cir-
cuit. If the fuses become open (blown) when the
cooling fans are to be turned on by the ECM, sus-
pect a faulty cooling fan motor.
S The ECM will turn the cooling fans on at low speed
when the coolant temperature is 97°C (207°F). The
ECM will turn the cooling fans off when the coolant
temperature is 94°C(201°F).
S The ECM will turn the cooling fans on at high speed
when the coolant temperature is 101°C (214°F).
The ECM will change the cooling fans from high
speed to low speed when the coolant temperature
is 98°C (208°F).S The ECM will turn the cooling fans on at low speed
when the A/C system is on. The ECM will change
the cooling fans from low speed to high speed
when the high side A/C pressure is 1882 kPa (273
psi) then return to low speed when the high side
A/C pressure is 1448 kPa (210 psi). When the A/C
system is on, the ECM will change the cooling fans
from low to high speed when the coolant tempera-
ture reaches 117°C (244°F) then return to low
speed when the coolant temperature reaches
11 4°C (237°F).
S The cooling fan circuit can be checked quickly by
disconnecting the ECM connector 2 and grounding
the connector terminal 10. This should create low
speed cooling fan operation with the ignition ON. By
grounding the ECM connector terminals 10 and 9
and turning the ignition ON, high speed cooling fan
operation should be achieved.
Test Description
The number(s) below refer to step(s) on the diagnostic
table.
4. This step, along with step 5, checks for the ability of
the ECM to operate the cooling fans.
8. This step, along with step 9, checks for the ability of
the ECM to operate the cooling fans in response to
A/C pressure readings.
16. After confirming battery voltage and the ECM sup-
plying a ground to the coil side of the cooling fan
relay A, by jumpering connector terminals 30 and
87 it will be determined if the relay is at fault or a
wiring problem is present.
31. This step checks for the presence of battery volt-
age to the main cooling fan when the A/C is on. If
battery voltage is present and the cooling fans are
not operating, the problem is in the ground side of
the cooling fan circuit.
37. By directly grounding the ECM connector terminals
10 and 9, the main and auxiliary cooling fans
should run at high speed.
