TAble B-7 A/C Condenser Fan Control System Check
INSPECTION
Step Action Yes No
1 Check Fan Control System.
1) Connect scan tool to DLC with ignition switch OFF. See
Fig. 1.
2) Start engine and select “DATA LIST” mode on scan tool.
3) Warm up engine until coolant temp. is 110 °C, 230 °F or
higher and A/C switch turn OFF. (If engine coolant temp.
does not rise, check engine cooling system or ECT sen-
sor.)
Is A/C condenser fan started when engine coolant temp.
reached above temp.?A/C condenser fan con-
trol system is in good
condition.Go to Step 2.
2 Check A/C Condenser Fan Relay and Its Circuit.
1) Check DTC and pending DTC with scan tool.
Is DTC P0481 displayed?Go to DTC P0481 Diag.
Flow Table.Go to Step 3.
3 Check A/C Condenser Fan Relay (1).
1) Turn ignition switch OFF and remove A/C condenser fan
relay.
2) Check for proper connection to relay at terminals “A”
and “B”.
3) If OK, check that there is continuity between “A” and “B”
when battery is connected to terminals “C” and “D”. See
Fig. 2.
Is check result satisfactory?Go to Step 4. Replace A/C
condenser fan
relay.

WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System:
Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under
“General Description” in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing ser-
vice on or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Ser-
vice Precautions” under “On-Vehicle Service” in air bag system section before performing service
on or around the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in
unintentional activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two
conditions may result in severe injury.
Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
“LOCK” position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system
may be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).

Diagnosis
Diagnosis Table
Refer to “Engine Diagnosis Table” in Section 6.
Compression Check
Check compression pressure on all 4 cylinders as follows:
1) Warm up engine.
2) Stop engine after warming up.
3) Disconnect accelerator cable (1) from clamp (2) (For left
hand steering vehicle only).
4) Remove cylinder head upper cover (3).
5) Disconnect ignition coil couplers (1).
6) Remove ignition coil assemblies (2) with high-tension cord
(3).
7) Remove all spark plugs.
8) Disconnect fuel injector wires (4) at the coupler.
9) Install special tools (Compression gauge) into spark plug
hole.
Special tool
(A) : 09915-64510-001
(B) : 09915-64510-002
(C) : 09915-64530
(D) : 09915-67010 NOTE:
After warming up engine, place transmission gear shift
lever in “Neutral” (shift selector lever to “P” range for A/T
model), and set parking brake and block drive wheels.

10) Disengage clutch (1) (to lighten starting load on engine) for
M/T vehicle, and depress accelerator pedal (2) all the way to
make throttle fully open.
11) Crank engine with fully charged battery, and read the highest
pressure on compression gauge.
Compression pressure specification
12) Carry out Steps 9) through 11) on each cylinder to obtain 4
readings.
13) After checking, install spark plugs and ignition coil assem-
blies (1) with high-tension cord (2).
14) Connect ignition coil couplers (3).
15) Connect fuel injector wires (4) at the coupler.
16) Check cylinder head upper cover gasket for deterioration and
then install it into groove of cylinder head upper cover (1)
securely.
17) Install cylinder head upper cover with gasket on to cylinder
head cover.
18) Connect accelerator cable (2) to clamp (3) (For left hand
steering vehicle only).
NOTE:
For measuring compression pressure, crank engine at
least 250 rpm by using fully charged battery.
If check results are below the limit valve, check instal-
lation condition for special tool.
