STARTING/CHARGING SYSTEM
Battery
D: MEASUREMENT
WARNING:
Do not bring an open flame close to the bat-
tery at this time.
CAUTION:
Prior to charging, corroded terminals should
be cleaned with a brush and common baking
soda solution.
Be careful since the battery electrolyte over-
flows while charging the battery.
Observe the instructions when handling bat-
tery charger.
Before charging the battery on vehicle, dis-
connect battery ground terminal. Failure to fol-
low this rule may damage alternator’s diodes or
other electrical units.
1. JUDGMENT OF BATTERY IN CHARGED
CONDITION
1) Specific gravity of electrolyte is held at a specific
value in a range from 1.250 to 1.290 for more than
one hour.
2) Voltage per battery cell is held at a specific value
in a range from 2.5 to 2.8 volts for more than one
hour.
2. CHECK HYDROMETER FOR STATE OF
CHARGE
3. NORMAL CHARGING
Charge the battery at current value specified by
manufacturer or at approx. 1/10 of battery’s am-
pere-hour rating.
4. QUICK CHARGING
Quick charging is a method in which the battery is
charged in a short period of time with a relatively
large current by using a quick charger.
Since a large current flow raises electrolyte temper-
ature, the battery is subject to damage if large cur-
rent is used for prolonged time. For this reason, the
quick charging must be carried out within a current
range that will not increase the electrolyte temper-
ature above 40°C (104°F).
It should be also remembered that the quick charg-
ing is a temporary means to bring battery voltage
up to a fair value and, as a rule, a battery should be
charged slowly with a low current.CAUTION:
Observe the items in 3. NORMAL CHARGING.
Never use more than 10 amperes when
charging the battery because that will shorten
battery life.

General Description
3. General Description
A: CAUTION
1) Airbag system wiring harness is routed near the
ECM, main relay and fuel pump relay.
CAUTION:
All air bag system wiring harnesses and con-
nectors are yellow. Do not use the electrical
test equipment on these circuits.
Be careful not to damage the Airbag system
wiring harness when servicing the ECM, TCM,
main relay and fuel pump relay.
2) Never connect the battery in reverse polarity.
The ECM will be destroyed immediately.
The fuel injector and other part will be damaged.
3) Do not disconnect the battery terminals while the
engine is running.
A large counter electromotive force will be generat-
ed in the generator, and this voltage may damage
electronic parts such as ECM, etc.
4) Before disconnecting the connectors of each
sensor and the ECM, be sure to turn the ignition
switch to OFF.
5) Poor contact has been identified as a primary
cause of this problem. Measure the voltage or re-
sistance of individual sensor or all electrical control
modules using a tapered pin with a diameter of less
than 0.64 mm (0.025 in). Do not insert the pin more
than 5 mm (0.20 in) into the part.
6) Remove the ECM from the located position after
disconnecting two cables on battery.
Otherwise, the ECM may be damaged.
CAUTION:
When replacing the ECM, be careful not to use
the wrong spec. ECM to avoid any damage on
the fuel injection system.
7) Connectors to each sensor in the engine com-
partment and the harness connectors on the en-
gine side and body side are all designed to be
waterproof. However, it is still necessary to take
care not to allow water to get into the connectors
when washing the vehicle, or when servicing the
vehicle on a rainy day.8) Use ECM mounting stud bolts as the grounding
point to body when measuring voltage and resis-
tance inside the passenger compartment.
9) Use engine ground terminal or engine proper as
the grounding point to body when measuring volt-
age and resistance in the engine compartment.
10) Use TCM mounting stud bolts as the grounding
point to body when measuring voltage and resis-
tance inside the passenger compartment.
11) Every MFI-related part is a precision part. Do
not drop them.
12) Observe the following cautions when installing
a radio in MFI equipped models.
CAUTION:
The antenna must be kept as far apart as pos-
sible from the control unit. (The ECM is located
under the steering column, inside of the instru-
ment panel lower trim panel.)
