STARTER CIRCUIT TROUBLESHOOTING
The battery must be in good condition and fully charged.
1. Remove the fuel pump relay(A) from the fuse box.
2. With the shift lever in N or P (A/T) or clutch pedal pressed (M/T), turn the ignition switch to "START"
If the starter normally cranks the engine, starting system is OK. If the starter will not crank the engine at all, go to
next step.
If it won't disengage from the ring gear when you release key, check for the following until you find the cause.
a. Solenoid plunger and switch malfunction.
b. Dirty pinion gear or damaged overrunning clutch.
3. Check the battery condition. Check electrical connections at the battery, battery negative cable connected to the
body, engine ground cables, and the starter for looseness and corrosion. Then try starting the engine again.
If the starter cranks normally the engine, repairing the loose connection repaired the problem. The starting system
is now OK.
If the starter still does not crank the engine, go to next step.
4. Disconnect the connector from the S- terminal of solenoid. Connect a jumper wire from the B- terminal of solenoid to
the S- terminal of solenoid.
If the starter cranks the engine, go to next step.
If the starter still does not crank the engine, remove the starter, and repair or replace as necessary.
5. Check the following items in the order listed until you find the open circuit.
a. Check the wire and connectors between the driver's under - dash fuse/relay box and the ignition switch, and
between the driver's under - dash fuse/relay box and the starter.
b. Check the ignition switch (Refer to BE group - ignition system)
c. Check the transaxle range switch connector or ignition lock switch connector.
d. Inspect the starter relay.
STATER SOLENOID TEST
1.Disconnect the field coil wire from the M- terminal of solenoid switch.
2. Connect the battery as shown. If the starter pinion pops out, it is working properly. To avoid damaging the starter,
do not leave the battery connected for more than 10 seconds.
3.Disconnect the battery from the M terminal.
If the pinion does not retract, the hold- in coil is working properly. To avoid damaging the starter, do not leave the
battery connected for more than 10 seconds.

COMPONENT INSPECTION
1.Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect PCSV connector.
3. Measure resistance between PCSV terminals 1 and 2.
4.Check that the resistance is within the specification.
Specification: Refer to SPECIFICATION.

DESCRIPTION
Modifications to the combustion chamber, intake manifold, camshaft and ignition system form the basic control system.
These items have been integrated into a highly effective system which controls exhaust emissions while maintaining
good driveability and fuel economy.
AIR/FUEL MIXTURE CONTROL SYSTEM [MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) SYSTEM]
This in turn allows the engine to produce exhaust gases of the proper composition to permit the use of a three way
catalyst. The three way catalyst is designed to convert the three pollutants (1) hydrocarbons (HC), (2) carbon
monoxide (CO), and (3) oxides of nitrogen (NOx) into harmless substances. There are two operating modes in the MFI
system.
1. Open Loop air/fuel ratio is controlled by information programmed into the ECM.
2. Closed Loop air/fuel ratio is adjusted by the ECM based on information supplied by the oxygen sensor.

DESCRIPTION
1.Engine is hard to start or does not start at all.
2. Unstable idle.
3. Poor driveability
If any of the above conditions are noted, first perform a routine diagnosis that includes basic engine checks (ignition
system malfunction, incorrect engine adjustment, etc.). Then, inspect the Gasoline Engine Control system components
with the HI- SCAN (Pro).
a. Before removing or installing any part, read the diagnostic trouble codes and then disconnect the battery
negative ( - ) terminal.
b. Before disconnecting the cable from battery terminal, turn the ignition switch to OFF. Removal or connection
of the battery cable during engine operation or while the ignition switch is ON could cause damage to the
ECM.
c. The control harnesses between the ECM and heated oxygen sensor are shielded with the shielded ground
wires to the body in order to prevent the influence of ignition noises and radio interference. When the shielded
wire is faulty, the control harness must be replaced.
d. When checking the generator for the charging state, do not disconnect the battery '+' terminal to prevent the
ECM from damage due to the voltage.
e. When charging the battery with the external charger, disconnect the vehicle side battery terminals to prevent
damage to the ECM.
