DTC and MI Detection Logic
When a malfunction is detected for the first time, the malfunction (DTC) is stored in the ECM memory.
The MI will light up each time the ECM detects a malfunction. However, if the same malfunction is experienced
in two consecutive driving patterns and the engine is still running, the MI will stay lit up. For a description of
diagnostic items causing the MI to light up, refer to ªTROUBLE DIAGNOSIS Ð INDEXº, EC-313.
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
HOW TO READ DTC
The DTC can be read by the following methods.
Without CONSULT-II
ECM displays the DTC by a set of four digit numbers with MI illumination in the diagnostic test mode II (Self-
diagnostic results). Example: 0102, 0103, 0104, etc.
With CONSULT-II
CONSULT-II displays the DTC in ªSELF-DIAG RESULTSº mode. Examples: P0100, P0115, P0500, etc.
These DTCs are prescribed by ISO15031-6.
(CONSULT-II also displays the malfunctioning component or system.)
IOutput of the trouble code means that the indicated circuit has a malfunction. However, in the Mode
II it does not indicate whether the malfunction is still occurring or occurred in the past and returned
to normal.
CONSULT-II can identify them. Therefore, using CONSULT-II (if available) is recommended.
HOW TO ERASE DTC
How to Erase DTC (
With CONSULT-II)
1. If the ignition switch stays ªONº after repair work, be sure to turn ignition switch ªOFFº once. Wait at least
5 seconds and then turn it ªONº (engine stopped) again.
2. Touch ªENGINEº.
3. Touch ªSELF-DIAG RESULTSº.
4. Touch ªERASEº. (The DTC in the ECM will be erased.)
The emission related diagnostic information in the ECM can be erased by selecting ªERASEº in the ªSELF-
DIAG RESULTSº mode with CONSULT-II.

How to Erase DTC (Without CONSULT-II)
1. If the ignition switch stays ªONº after repair work, be sure to turn ignition switch ªOFFº once. Wait at least5 seconds and then turn it ªONº (engine stopped) again.
2. Change the diagnostic test mode from Mode II to Mode I by using the data link connector. (See EC-346.)
The emission related diagnostic information in the ECM can be erased by changing the diagnostic test mode.
I If the battery is disconnected, the emission-related diagnostic information will be lost after approx.
24 hours.
I Erasing the emission-related diagnostic information using CONSULT-II is easier and quicker than
switching the diagnostic test mode using the data link connector.
Malfunction Indicator (MI)
1. The malfunction indicator will light up when the ignition switch
is turned ON without the engine running. This is a bulb check.
I If the malfunction indicator does not light up, refer to EL sec-
tion (ªWARNING LAMPS/WIRING DIAGRAMº) or see MI &
DATA LINK CONNECTORS.
2. When the engine is started, the malfunction indicator should go off.
If the lamp remains on, the on board diagnostic system has
detected an engine system malfunction.
If MI illuminates or flashes irregularly after starting engine,
water may have accumulated in fuel filter. Drain water from
fuel filter.
ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM FUNCTION
The on board diagnostic system has the following three functions.
Diagnostic
Test Mode KEY and ENG.
Status Function Explanation of Function
Mode I Ignition switch in
ON position
Engine stoppedBULB CHECK
This function checks the MI bulb for damage (blown, open
circuit, etc.).
If the MI does not come on, check MI circuit. (See EC-475.)
Engine running
MALFUNCTION
WARNING This is a usual driving condition. When ECM detects a
malfunction, the MI will light up to inform the driver that a mal-
function has been detected.
Mode II Ignition switch in
ON position
Engine stopped
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC

This function allows DTCs to be read.

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MI, DTC, CONSULT-II AND DRIVING PATTERNS
*1: When a malfunction is detected, MIwill light up.
*2: When the same malfunction is detected in two consecutive driving
patterns, MI will stay lit up.
*3: MI will go off after vehicle is driven three times without any malfunc-
tions. *4: When a malfunction is detected for
the first time, the DTC will be
stored in ECM.
*5: The DTC will not be displayed any longer after vehicle is driven 40
times without the same malfunc-
tion. (The DTC still remain in
ECM.) *6: Other screens except SELF-DIAG-
NOSTIC RESULTS & DATA MONI-

function at the moment it is

Component Description
Malfunction Indicator (MI) is located on the instrument panel. When the ignition switch is turned ON without
engine running, MI will light up. This is a bulb check. When the engine is started, MI should go off. If MI remains
on, the on board diagnostic system has detected an engine system malfunction.

Removal and Installation
CAUTION:
The accelerator wire should be adjusted when removing and replacing any parts of the accelerator
control system, shown in the illustration.
a. Warm up engine to normal operating temperature. Then stop it.
b. Check to see if throttle valve fully opens when accelerator pedal is fully depressed and if it returnsto idle position when released.
c. Adjust accelerator pedal free play by turning adjusting nut.
d. Check accelerator control parts for improper contact with any adjacent parts.
e. When connecting accelerator wire, be careful not to twist or scratch its inner wire.
f. Apply a light coat of recommended multi-purpose grease to all sliding or friction surfaces. Do not apply grease to wire.
g. For ASCD wire adjustment, refer to ªASCD Wire Adjustmentº in EL section.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
I Check if accelerator pedal moves smoothly within its range.
I Check if accelerator pedal returns securely to its original position.
I Perform ªAccelerator Pedal Released Position Learningº when removing the accelerator pedal position
sensor harness connector. Refer to ªBASIC SERVICE PROCEDUREº in EC section for instructions.
