GENERAL – How to Use This Manual 00-2 HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL 00100010210 SCOPE OF MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND SERVICING EXPLANATIONS This manual provides explanations, etc. concerning procedures for the inspection, maintenance, repair and servicing of the subject model. Note, however, that for engine and transmission-related component parts, this manual covers only on-vehicle inspections, adjustments, and the removal and installation procedures for major components. For detailed information concerning the inspection, checking, adjustment, disassembly and reassembly of the engine, transmission and major components after they have been removed from the vehicle, please refer to separate manuals covering the engine and the transmission. ON-VEHICLE SERVICE “On-vehicle Service” is procedures for performing inspections and adjustments of particularly important locations with regard to the construction and for maintenance and servicing, but other inspection (for looseness, play, cracking, damage, etc.) must also be performed. INSPECTION Under this title are presented inspection and checking procedures to be performed by using special tools and measuring instruments and by feeling, but, for actual maintenance and servicing procedures, visual inspections should always be performed as well. DEFINITION OF TERMS STANDARD VALUE Indicates the value used as the standard for judging the quality of a part or assembly on inspection or the value to which the part or assembly is corrected and adjusted. It is given by tolerance. LIMIT Shows the standard for judging the quality of a part or assembly on inspection and means the maximum or minimum value within which the part or assembly must be kept functionally or in strength. It is a value established outside the range of standard value. REFERENCE VALUE Indicates the adjustment value prior to starting the work (presented in order to facilitate assembly and adjustment procedures, and so they can be completed in a shorter time). CAUTION Indicates the presentation of information particularly vital to the worker during the performance of maintenance and servicing procedures in order to avoid the possibility of injury to the worker, or damage to component parts, or a reduction of component or vehicle function or performance, etc. INDICATION OF TIGHTENING TORQUE The tightening torque shown in this manual is a basic value with a tolerance of ±10% except the following cases when the upper and lower limits of tightening torque are given. (1) The tolerance of the basic value is within ±10%. (2) Special bolts or the like are in use. (3) Special tightening methods are used.

GENERAL – How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points 00-6 HOW TO USE TROUBLESHOOTING/INSPECTION SERVICE POINTS 00100020091 Troubleshooting of electronic control systems for which the MUT-II can be used follows the basic outline described below. Furthermore, even in systems for which the MUT-II cannot be used, part of these systems still follow this outline. TROUBLESHOOTING CONTENTS 1. STANDARD FLOW OF DIAGNOSIS TROUBLESHOOTING The troubleshooting sections follow the basic diagnosis flow which is given below. If the diagnosis flow is different from that given below, or if additional explanation is required, the details of such differences or additions will also be listed. Diagnosis method Gathering information from the customer. Check trouble symptom. Reoccurs Does not reoccur. Read the diagnosis code No diagnosis code or communication with MUT-II not possible Refer to the INSPECTION CHART FOR TROUBLE SYMPTOMS (Refer to applicable group.) Diagnosis code displayed. Read the diagnosis code Diagnosis code displayed. No diagnosis code After taking note of the malfunction code, erase the diagnosis code memory Recheck trouble symptom. Diagnosis code displayed.

GENERAL – How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points 00-8 WHEN USING THE WARNING LAMP 1. Use the special tool to earth No.1 terminal (diagnosis control terminal) of the diagnosis connector. 2. To check ABS system, remove the valve relay. NOTE That is because the valve relay is off and the warning lamp remains illuminated if there is a fault in the ABS system. 3. Turn off the ignition switch. 4. Read out a diagnosis code by observing how the warning lamp flashes. Applicable systems System name Warning lamp name MPI Engine warning lamp ABS ABS warning lamp Indication of diagnosis code by warning lamp When the diagnosis code No.24 is output When no diagnosis code is output* On Off 1.5 s 0.5 s 0.5 s Pause time 3 s Tens signal Place division 2 s Units signal On Off 0.5 s NOTE *: Even if the ABS system is normal, removing the valve relay causes the diagnosis code No.51 to be output. METHOD OF ERASING DIAGNOSIS CODES WHEN USING THE MUT-II Connect the MUT-II to the diagnosis connector and erase the diagnosis code. Caution Turn off the ignition switch before connecting or disconnecting the MUT-II. WHEN NOT USING THE MUT-II (1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF. (2) After disconnecting the battery cable from the battery (–) terminal for 10 seconds or more, reconnect the cable. (3) After the engine has warmed up, run it at idle for about 15 minutes.

GENERAL – How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points 00-9 HOW TO USE THE INSPECTION PROCEDURES The causes of a high frequency of problems occurring in electronic circuitry are generally the connectors, components, the ECU and the harnesses between connectors, in that order. These inspection procedures follow this order, and they first try to discover a problem with a connector or a defective component. D Indicator does not turn on or off even if control mode switch is pressed. D Indicator switch should not be illuminated is illuminated. Probable cause OK OK OK Measure at switch connector A-44 D Disconnect the connector, and measure at the harness side. D Voltage between terminal 6 – earth and terminal 8 – earth OK: Approx. 5V OK NG Check the following connector. A-44 Repair OK Check trouble symptom. Replace the ECS-ECU. In the above cases, the ECS switch circuit is defective or the indicator circuit is defective. CHECKING PROCEDURE 4 2. Indicates inspection carried out using the MUT-II. Indicates the operation and inspection procedures. Indicates the OK judgement conditions. 3. Detailed inspection procedures (methods) such as component inspection and circuit inspection are listed on a separate page, and are given here for reference. 5. Inspect the contact condition at each connector terminal. (Refer to Connector Inspection Service Points.) The connector position can be located in the wiring diagram in the electrical wiring manual by means of this symbol. Caution After carrying out connector inspection, always be sure to reconnect the connector as it was before. 6. Confirm that there are trouble symptoms. If trouble symptoms have disappeared, the connector may have been inserted incorrectly and the trouble symptom may have disappeared during inspection. If it seems that trouble symptoms still remain, proceed to the next page of instructions. 7. If trouble symptoms still remain up to this stage, there is a possibility that there is an open or short circuit in the harness between the connectors, so check the harness. Alternatively, the cause may be a defective ECU, so try replacing the ECU and check if the trouble symptom disappears. NG ECU switch component inspection (Refer to P.3-44.) NG 1. Comments on the diagnosis code or trouble symptom above. MUT-II Data list 17 Control mode selection switch OK: Voltage changes between approx. 0V ! approx. 2.5V ! approx. 5V when the switch is operated. 4. Indicates voltage and resistance to be measured at a particular connector. (Refer to Connector Measurement Service Points.) The connector position can be located in the wiring diagram in the electrical wiring manual by means of this symbol. Indicates operation and inspection procedures, inspection terminals and inspection conditions. Indicates the OK judgement conditions. HARNESS INSPECTION Check for an open or short circuit in the harness between the terminals which were defective according to the connector measurements. Carry out this inspection while referring to the electrical wiring manual. Here, “Check harness between power supply and terminal xx” also includes checking for blown fuses. For inspection service points when there is a blown fuse, refer to “Inspection Service Points for a Blown Fuse.” MEASURES TO TAKE AFTER REPLACING THE ECU If the trouble symptoms have not disappeared even after replacing the ECU, repeat the inspection procedure from the beginning.
