DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
__ --
FL25
(MA)
The ECU contains a built-in self-diagnosis system by which
troubles with the engine signal network are detected and a
"CHECK ENGINE" warning light on the instrument panel
flashes,
By analyzing various signals as shown in the later table (See
pages Fl-30, 31) the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) detects
system malfunctions which are related to the various operating
parameter sensors or to the actuator. The ECU stores the
failure until the diagnosis system is cleared by removing the EFI
fuse with the ignition switch off.
A "CHECK ENGINE" warning light on the instrument panel
informs the driver that a malfunction has been detected.
The light goes out automatically when the malfunction has
been cleared.
The diagnostic code can be read by the number of the blinks of
the "CHECK ENGINE" warning light when T and El are short-
circuit.

The ECU contains a built-in self-diagnosis system by which
troubles with the engine signal network are detected and a
"CHECK ENGINE" warning light on the instrument panel
flashes.
By analyzing various signals as shown in the later table (See
page FI-32) the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) detects system
malfunctions which are related to the various operating
parameter sensors or to the actuator. The ECU stores the
failure until the diagnosis system is cleared by removing the EFI
fuse with the ignition switch off.
In the ECU, a test mode function has been added to the func-
tions of the self-diagnosis system of the previous diagnosis
mode (normal mode) for the purpose of detecting malfunctions
such as poor contact which are difficult to detect in the normal
mode. This function fills up the self-diagnosis system. The test
mode can be implemented by the technician to follow the pro-
cedures of appropriate check terminal connection and opera-
tion described in later (See page FI-28).
In the normal mode, the self-diagnosis system monitors 14
items, indicated by the codes except for code No. 51 as shown
in FI-32. A "CHECK ENGINE" warning light on the instrument
panel informs the driver that a malfunction has been detected.
The light goes out automatically when the malfunction has
been cleared.
The diagnostic code can be read by the number of the blinks of
the "CHECK ENGINE" warning light when TEl and El are
short-circuited.
