Removal Service Point
Removal of ignition coil boot
Note :
• If the ignition coil boot is not installed according to the
specifications, then this can lead to various problems, such
as malfunction of the ignition coil, damage to the ignition coil,
leaking of high voltage to external parts, infiltration of water
into the hole, etc.
• The spark plug coupling section of the ignition coil boot is
coated with a white powder. This coating helps to prevent the
boot from welding to the spark plug, and must not be touched
or wiped away.
1. Please check that a spring is fitted inside the new ignition coil
boot.
2. Press the new ignition coil boot firmly onto the ignition coil,
and turn the coupling section 2 or 3 times to seat it correctly
in position, ensuring that there are no gaps.
3. After installation, turn the boot until the air blow hole is
positioned as shown in the diagram.

GENERAL INFORMATION - HOW TO READ THE WIRING DIAGRAMS0-4
Reading Circuit Diagrams
These diagrams show the circuits for each system, from the fuse or fusible link to the earth. In principle, the power supply is
shown at the top and the earth at the bottom, to make it easier to understand the flow of current in the circuit.
The circuit diagrams show a state where none of the switches, etc. are operating.
Indicates power take-out
point.Indicates connector No. The same number is used in the layout
diagrams. Connector numbers shown inside a rounded box indicate
connector symbols that are listed together at the bottom of the page.
Connector numbers that are not shown inside a rounded box indicate
components that are incorporated into the harness.
Indicates that the terminal is
connected via a plate inside
the relay box.
Each circuit diagram is divided into
blocks shown on separate pages.
This number indicates the block.
Indicates the harness branch
point. This number matches the
branch numbers in the other
circuit diagrams.
Indicates the number of the circuit
to which the branch connects.
Indicates the power supply
within the control unit. If no
voltage is indicated, then it is
the battery voltage.
An "X" at the end of a connector
number shows that it is part of the
centralized relay. For more
information, refer to the section
covering the Centralized Junction.
Indicates that circuit diagram
continues at [A] in Block [2].
Indicates the connector symbol,
listed in the order of the connector
numbers in the circuit diagram.
Indicates the operating
conditions of the coolant
temperature switch, etc.Indicates shield
wire.An upward arrow indicates that
the current flows from bottom to
top in the diagram.

GENERAL INFORMATION - HOW TO READ THE WIRING DIAGRAMS0-5
Indicates input / output to
and from control unit
(direction of current flow).
Input Output Input/Output
Indicates a wiring connector inside a device,
which is not shown in the layout diagrams.
Example :
Indicates a connector
located inside a
device, numbered in
order starting from 1.
Indicates the number of the connector
shown in the layout diagram.
Indicates that these are the same
intermediate connector.
Indicates that the diagram
continues from section [A] in
block [1].
Indicates the terminal No.
If two or more connectors are
connected to the same device, a
broken line between parts indicates
that the same connector is used.
The two-way arrow shows that
current can flow downwards or
upwards, under the control of
the ECU.
Indicates a harness junction point
where the wire changes colour or
diameter.
Indicates an intersection
where the wires are not
connected.
Indicates an intersection
where the wires are
connected
Indicates the representative earth
point on the vehicle body for that
circuit. (This number matches that of
the earth point in the layout diagrams
and the diagrams of individual part
installation positions.)
Indicates a spare connector, if the
corresponding device is not
installed, due to the vehicle
specifications.Indicates the connector part number given in
the harness repair manual. A number in
( ) indicates the part number of the connector
that corresponds to a connector symbol.
