NOTE:
• The following table includes information (items) inapplicable to this vehicle. For information (items) applica- ble to this vehicle, refer to CONSULT display items.
• Numerical values in the following table are reference values.
• These values are input/output values that ECM receiv es/transmits and may differ from actual operations.
Example: The ignition timing shown by the timing light may differ from the ignition timing displayed on the
data monitor.
This occurs because the timing light shows a value calculated by ECM according to signals received from
the camshaft position sensor and other sensors related to ignition timing.
• For outlines of following items, refer to EC-77, "CONSULT Function"
.
Monitor Item Condition Values/Status
ENG SPEED • Run engine and compare CONSULT value with the tachometer indication.Almost the same speed as
the tachometer indication.

When a DTC is detected, ECM executes a mode (in the

indicator
lamp circuit Engine speed will not rise
more than 2,500 rpm due
to the fuel cut When there is an open circuit on MIL circuit, the ECM cannot warn the
driver by lighting up MIL when there is malfunction on engine control
system.
Therefore, when electrical controlled throttle and part of ECM related
diagnoses are continuously detected as NG for 5 trips, ECM warns the
driver that engine control system malfunctions and MIL circuit is open
by means of operating fail safe function.
The fail safe function also operates when above diagnoses except MIL
circuit are detected and demands the driver to repair the malfunction. EC-517, "Compo-
nent Function
Check"
Fail safe mode Vehicle behavior
Traveling con-
trol mode Accelerator an-
gle variation
control ECM controls the accelerator pedal depression speed to make it slower than actual speed. This
causes a drop in accelerating performance and encourages the driver to repair malfunction.
NOTE:
ECM does not control the accelerator pedal releasing speed.
Engine output
control ECM reduces the engine output, according to the rise in engine speed. This reduces the vehicle
speed to encourage the driver to repair malfunction.
Device fix mode • This mode fixes the IVT control solenoid valve and the EVT control solenoid valve in the refer-
ence position.
• The intake manifold runner control valve motor is turned OFF (intake manifold runner control
valve opens).
