CHECK COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAK.
Apply pressure to the cooling system with
a tester, and check if the pressure drops.
Testing pressure:157 kPa (1.57 bar, 1.6 kg/cm
2, 23 psi)
Pressure should not drop.
CAUTION:
Higher than the specified pressure may
cause radiator damage.
OK
ENG Check the following for
leak.
IHose
I Radiator
I Water pump
Refer to LC section (ªWater
Pumpº).
CHECK RADIATOR CAP.
Apply pressure to cap with a tester.
Radiator cap relief pressure: 78 - 98 kPa (0.78 - 0.98 bar, 0.8 - 1.0
kg/cm
2, 11 - 14 psi)
OK
ENG Replace radiator cap.
CHECK THERMOSTAT.
1. Check valve seating condition at normal
room temperatures.
It should seat tightly.
2. Check valve opening temperature and valve lift.
Valve opening temperature:76.5ÉC (170ÉF) [standard]
Valve lift: More than 10 mm/90ÉC
(0.39 in/194ÉF)
3. Check if valve is closed at 5ÉC (9ÉF) below valve opening temperature.
For details, refer to LC section (ªThermo-
statº).
OK
ENG Replace thermostat
Check engine coolant temperature sensor.
Refer to ªCOMPONENT INSPECTIONº,
EC-449.
OK
ENGReplace engine coolant
temperature sensor.

Component Inspection
COOLING FAN RELAY AND A/C RELAY
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect cooling fan relay and A/C relay.
3. Check continuity between each relay terminalq
3andq5under
the following conditions.
Apply 12V direct current between
relay terminals q
1andq2. Continuity should exist.
No voltage applied. Continuity should not exist.
4. If NG, replace cooling fan relay or/and A/C relay(s).

Component Description
NEEDLE LIFT SENSOR (NLS)
The needle lift sensor is built into the No. 1 nozzle. Its inductive
pickup element senses fuel injection timing. It is sent as a pulse
signal to the ECM for feed-back the actual fuel injection timing and
calculating the secondary engine speed.

DTC Confirmation Procedure
NOTE:
Before DTC confirmation, be sure to check battery voltage is
above 9V.
WITH CONSULT-II
1) Turn ignition switch to ªONº position and select ªDATA MONI-
TORº mode with CONSULT-II.
2) Start engine.
3) Run it for 2 seconds at above 1,200 rpm.
WITHOUT CONSULT-II
1) Start engine.
2) Run it for 2 seconds at above 1,200 rpm.
3) Turn ignition switch to ªLOCKº position, wait at least 5 seconds and then turn to ªONº position.
4) Perform ªDiagnostic Test Mode IIº (Self-diagnostic results).
