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 pri-
mary side of ignition coil A generates a high voltage
in the secondary side of ignition coil A. The high volt
-
age 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 or engine-A/T-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 inter
-
rupted and allowed to flow to fire the cylinders in the
order 1-3-4-2.
The engine-ECU or engine-A/T-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 condi
-
tions. 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 alti-
tudes, the ignition timing is slightly advanced to pro-
vide optimum performance.
When the automatic transmission shifts gears, the
ignition timing is also retarded in order to reduce out
-
put torque, thereby alleviating shifting shocks.

CAUTION
The anti-trap function does not work until the
power window switch completes learning the
fully closed position (It is because the anti-trap
function is reset).
3. Operate the power window switch and fully close
the door window glass. The power window
activates for 0.7 seconds and stops automatically
when the power window switch is pressed once.
Repeat this operation until the door window glass
fully closes and release the switch once. Then,
hold the power window switch to the fully closed
side again for one second so that the power
window switch completes learning the fully closed
position.
NOTE: If the power window switch is operated to
open the door window glass while the switch is
learning, learning will be cancelled. If this hap

NOTE: When the power window sub switch of each
seat is replaced, operate the power window main
switch to fully close the applicable power window by
one-shot up action (It is because the power window

HOW TO REGISTER SECRET CODE
M1428001000292
Each individual secret code is registered inside the
transmitter, and so it is necessary to resister these
codes with the EEPROM insi de the receiver in the
following cases.
•When the transmitter or ETACS-ECU is replaced
•If more transmitters are to be used
•If it appears that a probl em is occurring because
of faulty registration of a code.
A maximum of four different codes can be stored in
the EEPROM memory (four different transmitters can
be used). When the code for the first transmitter is
registered, the previously registered codes for all
transmitters are cleared. Therefore, if you are using
four transmitters or are adding more transmitters, the
codes for all transmitters must be registered at the
same time.
