The procedure for fabricating an LED test lamp is
fully described in the Electrical System section.
If a conventional test lamp with a filament type
bulb is to be used, ensure that the current draw of the
test lamp does not exceed 0.3 amp to avoid damage to
the electronic components.
To check the current draw connect an accurate
ammeter, such as the multimeter described previ-
ously, in series with the test lamp and a battery.
If the ammeter reads less than 0.3 amp the test
lamp is suitable.
Tachometer
(1) Disconnect the resistor from the tachometer
pick-up wiring connector which is located on the
ignition coil wiring harness, and connect the positive
lead of an accurate tachometer to the brown wire
terminal in the wiring connector.
(2) Connect the negative lead to a good earthing
point.
View showing the location of the tachometer pickup
wiring connector with the resistor installed.
Timing Light
(1) Connect the timing light to the engine fol-
lowing the instrument manufacturers instructions.
NOTE: Do not connect or disconnect the
timing light with the engine running as
voltage surges could damage the alternator
or control unit. Do not allow the high
tension leads to open circuit with the engine
running as damage to the engine manage-
ment system could result.
(2) Do not connect the timing light positive lead
to the alternator output terminal. Where possible,
connect the power leads of the timing light to an
external power source to prevent possible transient
voltages damaging the alternator or control unit.
4. SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS AND ADJUSTMENTS
NOTE: Due to the use of complex electronic
components in the engine management sys-
tem, the diagnosis and testing procedures
described in this section should not be
carried out by persons lacking an under-
standing of electronics and the precautions
associated with the servicing of electronic
components. It is recommended that should
a fault arise in the system, the vehicle be
referred to an authorized workshop.
The control unit can be damaged by
component faults not indicated by the self
diagnosis codes and the renewal of the
control unit without locating the cause of
the failure will result in the failure of the
replacement unit. It is for this reason that
the practice of substituting components to
isolate faults is not recommended.
Prior to performing any of the follow-
ing operations, refer to the Service Pre-
cautions and Procedures heading.
PRELIMINARY CHECKS
Prior to performing the Self Diagnosis Test Pro-
cedures, perform the following preliminary checks and
rectify any problems as necessary.
(1) Check for an adequate supply of fuel in the
fuel tank.
(2) Check the wiring connectors and earth points
of all engine management components for clean,
secure connections. To prevent damage to the control
unit, disconnect the negative battery terminal before
disconnecting any engine management wiring connec-
tors.
(3) Check the condition of the battery. Refer to
the Electrical System section for checking procedures.
Rectify any faults as necessary.
(4) Check the air cleaner element for restriction.
(5) Check for air leaks at the throttle body, inlet
manifold and all related hoses.
(6) Check the fuel pump pressure as described
later in this section.
(7) Ensure that the engine is in a satisfactory
mechanical condition and is in tune. Refer to the
Engine and Engine Tune-up sections as necessary.
SELF DIAGNOSIS
This function is very useful in locating system
faults particularly intermittent problems. However,
the self diagnosis mode does not provide comprehen-
sive testing of the engine management system, and
therefore should always be used in conjunction with
the other test procedures described later, in order to
accurately locate system faults.
To Interpret Self Diagnosis Codes
Once the self diagnosis mode is activated, various
fault codes will be displayed as a series of flashes by
the ECM warning lamp on the instrument cluster.
90
Fuel and Engine Management
To identify the code number, count the number of
times the ECM warning lamp flashes. Each fault code
comprises two groups of flashes separated by a 1.2
second pause. The first group represents tens and the
second group represents single units. For example 1
flash followed by a 1.2 second pause followed by 4
flashes would be code number 14. Similarly 4 flashes
followed by a 1.2 second pause followed by 2 flashes
would be code number 42.
The code will be displayed three times. If more
than one fault code is present, the self diagnosis
system will indicate each one in numerical order, with
a 3.2 second pause between each code, and then
repeat the sequence.
The fault codes can be identified as follows:

Test Procedure
(1) Perform the following checks:
(a) Ensure that the battery voltage is above 11
volts.
(b) Ensure that the throttle valve is fully closed.
(c) Place the transaxle in neutral.
(d) Ensure that the air conditioner, fan, tights
and all other accessories are switched off.
(2) Turn the ignition On and confirm that the
ECM warning lamp on the instrument cluster is
illuminated but not flashing.
If code 55 is displayed, refer to the Control Unit
heading, perform the circuit test procedure and rectify
the cause of the code before proceeding.
If the ECM warning lamp flashes codes other than
code 55, check the wiring harness between the diag-
nostic link connector terminal B and the control unit
wiring connector terminal A9 for shorts. Repair or
renew the wiring harness as necessary.
If no fault can be found, renew the control unit.
If the ECM warning lamp does not illuminate,
proceed as follows:
(a) Check the METER fuse located in the fuse
panel adjacent to the steering column and the fusible
links located in the fusible link connecting block at the
rear of the battery. Renew the fuse or fusible links as
necessary.
(b) Check the wiring harness to the instrument
cluster. Repair or renew the harness.
(c) Check the Check Engine lamp bulb. Renew if
necessary.
(d) Check the EGI relay. Renew as necessary.
(3) Connect a jumper lead across terminals A
and B on the diagnostic link connector located under
the front passengers seat above the control unit.
(4) Note the codes indicated by the flashing
ECM warning lamp.
If code 12 is displayed, the system is operating
correctly.
If codes other than code 12 are displayed, refer to
the component or circuit test procedure under the
appropriate heading as indicated by the code number.
If more than one code is being displayed, test each
indicated fault working in the order of display of the
code numbers.
(5) After completing the self diagnosis test pro-
cedure, remove the jumper lead from the diagnostic
link connector.

TO ADJUST BASE IDLE SPEED
NOTE: The idle speed is controlled by the
idle air control (IAC) valve and is not
adjustable. The throttle stop screw controls
the base idle speed and is factory set. The
following base idle speed adjustment should
only be performed if the throttle body has
been renewed, or if comprehensive testing of
related components indicates that adjust-
ment is required.
(1) Before adjusting the base idle speed perform
the following tests;
(a) Check the spark plug gaps, the high tension
leads and the ignition timing as described previously
in the Engine Tune-up section.
(b) Check the air inlet system for leaks between
the throttle body and inlet manifold and the inlet
manifold and cylinder head.
NOTE; Any vacuum leaks will make the
engine idle faster than it should.
(c) Check that all wiring connectors and vacuum
hoses are securely connected.
(d) Ensure that the transaxle is in Park or
Neutral.
(e) Ensure that the air cleaner element is service-
able.
(2) On 1.6 liter engines, remove the air cleaner
assembly, disconnect the vacuum hose from the
throttle body and seal the vacuum hose fitting.
(3) Ensure that the throttle valve moves freely
and returns to the fully closed position when slowly
released.
(4) Connect an accurate tachometer to the en-
gine as previously described under the Service Pre-
cautions and Procedures heading.
(5) Start the engine and allow the engine to
warm up and the idle rpm to stabilize. Check that all
electrical accessories and the air conditioning, if
equipped, are turned off.
