DIAG TROUBLE
CODE
[PXXXX]  The engine control compon
ent part/control system has a trouble code the is displayed as PXXXX. (Refer to
EC-98, "
DTC Index".)
CAL/LD VALUE [%]  The calculated load value at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
COOLANT TEMP [ °C]
or [ °F]  The engine coolant temperature at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
L-FUEL TRM-B1 [%]  “Long-term fuel trim” at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
 The long-term fuel trim indicates much more gradual feedback compensation to the base fuel schedule than short-term fuel trim.
L-FUEL TRM-B2 [%]
S-FUEL TRM-B1 [%]  “Short-term fuel trim” at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
 The short-term fuel trim indicates dynamic or instantaneous feedback compensation to the base fuel sched-ule.
S-FUEL TRM-B2 [%]

speed at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
VEHICL SPEED
[km/h] or [mph]  The vehicle speed at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.

ABSOL TH·P/S [%]  The throttle valve opening angle at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
B/FUEL SCHDL
[msec]  The base fuel schedule at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
INT/A TEMP SE [ °C]
or [ °F]  The intake air temperature at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.
FUEL SYS-B1  “Fuel injection system status” at the moment a malfunction is detected is displayed.  One of the following mode is displayed.
Mode2: Open loop due to detected system malfunction
Mode3: Open loop due to driving conditions (power enrichment, deceleration enleanment)
Mode4: Closed loop - using oxygen sensor(s) as feedback for fuel control
Mode5: Open loop - has not yet satisfied condition to go to closed loop

TION
 These items are displayed but are not applicable to this model.
Monitored item Unit Description Remarks
ENG SPEED rpm  Indicates the engine speed computed from the sig-
nal of the crankshaft position sensor and camshaft
position sensor.  Accuracy becomes poor if
engine speed drops below
the idle rpm.
 If the signal is interrupted while the engine is running,
an abnormal value may be
indicated.
MAS A/F SE-B1 V  The signal voltage of the mass air flow sensor is
displayed.  When the engine is stopped,
a certain value is indicated.
 When engine is running,
specification range is indicat-
ed in “SPEC”.
B/FUEL SCHDL ms  “Base fuel schedule” indicates the fuel injection
pulse width programmed into ECM, prior to any
learned on board correction.  When engine is running,
specification range is indicat-
ed in “SPEC”.

NOTE:
If DTC P006A or P0101 is displayed with other DTC,
first perform the trouble diagnosis for other DTC.
DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1.PRECONDITIONING
1. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.
If engine will not start or stops soon, wait at leas t 10 seconds with engine stopped (Ignition switch ON) instead
of running engine at idle speed.
>> GO TO 2.
2.PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
WITH CONSULT-III
1. Turn ignition switch ON and select “DATA MONITOR” mode with CONSULT-III.
2. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
3. Accelerate the vehicle from 0 km/h (0 MPH) to 88 km/h (55 MPH) under the following conditions:
CAUTION:
Always drive at a safe speed.
NOTE:
 Accelerate with the accelerator pedal kept constant.
 The acceleration at engine speed 2,000 and 3,000 rpm allows easy diagnoses
4. Check 1st trip DTC. WITHOUT CONSULT-III
1. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
2. With selector lever in D position, accelerate the vehicle from 0 km/h (0 MPH) to 88 km/h (55 MPH) under
the following conditions:
NOTE:
 Accelerate with the accelerator pedal kept constant.
 The acceleration at engine speed 2,000 and 3,000 rpm allows easy diagnoses.
