IGNITION SYSTEM
GENERAL INFORMATIONM1163000100294
This system is equipped with two ignition coils (A and
B) with built-in power transistors for the No. 1 and
No. 4 cylinders and the No. 2 and No. 3 cylinders
respectively.
Interruption of the primary current flowing in the
primary side of ignition coil A generates a high
voltage in the secondary side of ignition coil A. The
high voltage thus generated is applied to the spark
plugs of No. 1 and No. 4 cylinders to generate
sparks. At the time that the sparks are generated at
both spark plugs, if one cylinder is at the
compression stroke, the other cylinder is at the
exhaust stroke, so that ignition of the compressed
air/fuel mixture occurs only for the cylinder which is
at the compression stroke.
In the same way, when the primary current flowing in
ignition coil B is interrupted, the high voltage thus
generated is applied to the spark plugs of No. 2 and
No. 3 cylinders.The engine-ECU
turns the two power transistors inside the ignition
coils alternately on and off. This causes the primary
currents in the ignition coils to be alternately
interrupted and allowed to flow to fire the cylinders in
the order 1-3-4-2.
The engine-ECU
determines which ignition coil should be controlled
by means of the signals from the camshaft position
sensor which is incorporated in the camshaft and
from the crank angle sensor which is incorporated in
the crankshaft. It also detects the crankshaft position
in order to provide ignition at the most appropriate
timing in response to the engine operation
conditions. It also detects the crankshaft position in
order to provide ignition at the most appropriate
timing in response to the engine operation
conditions.
When the engine is cold or operated at high
altitudes, the ignition timing is slightly advanced to
provide optimum performance.
When the automatic transmission shifts gears, the
ignition timing is also retarded in order to reduce
output torque, thereby alleviating shifting shocks.

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATIONM1261003500399
CAUTION
•Do not strike the ABS rotors installed to the BJ outer race of drive shaft against other parts when
removing or installing the drive shaft. Otherwise the ABS rotors will be damaged.
•Be careful not to strike the pole piece at the tip of the front ABS sensor with tools during servicing
work.
Pre-installation Operation
•Transmission Fluid Draining (Refer to GROUP
22A, On-vehicle Service − Transmission Oil
Replacement P.22A-8).
•Front Exhaust Pipe Removal (Refer to GROUP
15, Exhaust Pipe and Muffler P.15-11).Post-installation Operation
•Front Exhaust Pipe Installation (Refer to
GROUP 15, Exhaust Pipe and Muffler
P.15-11).
•Check the Ball Joint Dust Cover for cracks or
damage by pushing it with your finger.
•Transmission Fluid Filling (Refer to GROUP
22A, On-vehicle Service − Transmission Oil
Replacement P.22A-8).

COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY
CHASSIS ELECTRICAL54A-38
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
The engine-ECU and its associated components, the
combination meter assembly, the wiring harness, or
the connector(s) may be defective.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
•Malfunction of the vehicle speed sensor
•Malfunction of the engine-ECU
•Malfunction of the combination meter assembly
•The wiring harness or connectors may have
loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or
terminals pushed back in the connector.
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE
STEP 1. MUT-II/III actuator test
(1) Connect the MUT-II/III to the diagnosis connector.(2) Use the MUT-II/III to enter simulated vehicle
speed.
Q: Does the speedometer show that simulated vehicle
speed?
YES :
Go to Step 6.
NO : Go to Step 2.
STEP 2. Check the output shaft speed sensor.
(MUT-II/III diagnosis code)
(1) Connect MUT-II/III to the diagnosis connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Read the automatic transmission system
diagnosis code.
Q: Is automatic transmission system diagnosis code
23 set?
YES :
Refer to P.23A-38.
NO : Go to Step 3.
