PRECAUTIONS
PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
The Supplemental Rest raint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENS IONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to redu ce th e risk or se verit y o f inju ry to the d river a nd fro nt passen ger fo r certain
types of collision. This system includes sea t belt switch inpu ts and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Manual.
WARNING:
●To avoid rendering the SRS inopera tive, which c ould increa se the risk of perso nal injury or dea th
in the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
●Improper maintenance, inc luding incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury cause d by unintentional ac tiv atio n o f the s ys tem . For removal of Spi ral Cab le and Air
Bag Module, see the SRS section.
●Do not use electrical test equ ipment o n any circu it related to the SRS unless in structed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or
harness connectors.

The ECM has an on boa rd diagnos tic system. It w ill light up th e malfunct ion indicat or lamp (MIL) to warn the
driver of a malfunction causing emission deterioration.
CAUTION:
●Be sure to turn the ignitio n switch OFF and disconne ct the negative battery terminal before any
repair or inspection work. The open/short circuit of related switches, sensors, solenoid valves,
etc. will cause the MIL to light up.
●Be sure to connect and lock the connectors securely after work. A loose (unlocked) connector will
cause the MIL to light up due to the open circuit. (Be sure the connector is free from water, grease,
dirt, bent terminals, etc.)
●Certain systems and components, especially those relate d to OBD, may use a new style slide-
locking type harness connector. For description and how to disconnect, refer to PG-56, "
NESS CONNECTOR" .
●Be sure to route and secure the harnesses properly after work. The interference of the harness
with a bracket, etc. may cause the MIL to light up due to the shor t circuit.
●Be sure to connect rubber tubes properly after work. A misconnected or disconnected rubber tube
may cause the MIL to ligh t up due to the m al func tion of the EVAP system or fuel injection system ,
etc.
●Be sure to erase the unnecessary malfunction information (repairs completed) from the ECM and
TCM (Transmission control module) before returning the vehicle to the customer.
PrecautionEBS00LV5
●Always use a 12 volt battery as power source.
●Do not attempt to disconne ct b atte ry c abl es while engine is
running.
●Before connecting or d isconnecting th e ECM harness con-
nector, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect battery
ground cable. Failure to do so may damage the ECM
because battery voltage is applie d to ECM even if ignition
switch is turned off.
●Before removing parts, turn ignition switch OFF and then
disconnect battery ground cable.

PRECAUTIONS
●Do not disassemble ECM.
●If a battery terminal is disconnected, the memory will return
to the ECM value.
The ECM will now start to self-control at its initial value.
Engine operation can vary slightly when the termin al i s di sconnected. However, this is not an in dication of a malfunction. Do not replace parts because of a slight variation.
●When connecting ECM harness connector, fasten it
securely with a leve r as far as it will go as shown in the f igure.
SEF707Y
●When connecting or discon necting pin connectors into or
from ECM, take care not to dam age pin terminals (bend or
break).
Make sure that there are not any bends or breaks on ECM
pin terminal, when connecting pin connectors.
●Securely connect ECM harness connectors.
A poor connection can cause an extremely high (surge)
voltage to develop in coil and condenser, thus resulting in
damage to ICs.
●Keep engine control system harness at least 10 cm (4 in)
away from adjacent harne ss , to p r ev ent eng ine control system malfunctions due to receiving external noise, degraded
operation of ICs, etc.
●Keep engine control system parts and harness dry.

●Handle mass air flow sensor carefully to avoid damage.
●Do not disassemble mass air flow sensor.
●Do not clean mass ai r flow sensor with any type of deter-
gent.
●Do not disassemble electric throttle control actuator.
●Even a slight leak in the air intake system can cause seri-
ous incidents.
●Do not shock or jar the camshaft position sensor (PHASE),

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The amount of fuel injected from the fuel injector is determined by the ECM. The ECM controls the length of
time the valve remains open (inj ection pu lse durati on). The a mount of fuel injec ted is a pr ogram val ue in the
ECM memory. The program value is preset by engine operating conditions. These conditions are determined
by input signals (for engine speed and intake air) from the crankshaft position sensor (POS), camshaft position
sensor (PHASE) and the mass air flow sensor.
VARIOUS FUEL INJECTION INCREASE/DECREASE COMPENSATION
In addition, the amount of fuel injected is compensated to improve engine performance under various operating conditions as listed belo w.

ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM
MIXTURE RATIO FEEDBACK CONTROL (CLOSED LOOP CONTROL)
A
EC
C
PBIB0121E
The mixture r atio feedback system provides the best air-fuel mixture ratio for driveability and emission control.
The three way catalyst (manifold) can then better reduce CO, HC and NOx emissions. This system uses
heated oxygen sensor 1 in the exhaust manifold to monitor whether the engine operation is rich or lean. The
ECM adjusts the injection pulse width according to the sensor voltage signal. For more information about
heated oxygen sensor 1, refer to EC-212
. This maintains th e mixture ratio within the range o f stoichio metric
(ideal air-fuel mixture).
This stage is referred to as the closed loop control condition.
Heated oxygen se nsor 2 is located downstream of the three way catalyst (manifold). Even if the switching
characteristics of heated oxyge n sensor 1 shift , the air-fuel ratio is controlled to st oichiometric by the signal
from heated oxygen sensor 2.
Open Loop Control
The open loop system condition refers to when the ECM detects any of the following conditions. Feedback
control stops in order to maintain stabilized fuel combustion.
●Deceleration and acceleration
●High-load, high-speed operation
●Malfunction of heated oxygen sensor 1 or its circuit
●Insufficient activation of heated oxygen sensor 1 at low engine coolant temperature
●High engine coolant temperature
●During warm-up
●After shifting from “N” to “D”
●When starting the engine
MIXTURE RATIO SELF-LEARNING CONT ROL
The mixture ratio fe edback control syst em monitors the mixture ratio signal transmit ted from heated oxygen
sensor 1. This feedba ck sign al is then se nt to the ECM. Th e ECM contro ls the bas ic mixture ratio as close to
the theoretical mixture ratio as possible. However, the basic mixture ratio is not necessarily controlled as originally designed. Both manufacturing differences (i.e., mass air flow sensor hot film) and characteristic changes
during operation (i.e., injector clogging) directly affect mixture ratio.
Accordingly, the dif fer e nc e bet w een th e ba si c and t he ore ti ca l mixt ur e ra ti os is m onit o re d in t hi s sys te m. T hi s is
then computed in terms of “injection pu lse duration” to aut omatically compe nsate for the difference be tween
the two ratios.
“Fuel trim” refers to the feedback co mpensation value compare d against the basic injecti on duration. Fuel trim
includes short term fuel trim and long term fuel trim.
“Short term fuel trim” is the sh ort-term fuel c ompensatio n used to ma intain the mix ture ratio at its th eoretical
value. The signal from heated oxygen sensor 1 indicates whether the mixture ratio is RICH or LEAN compared
to the theoretica l value. Th e signal then trigge rs a reduc tion in fue l volume if the mixtu re ratio i s rich, and a n
increase in fuel volume if it is lean.
“Long term fuel trim” is ov erall fue l compe nsation ca rried out lo ng-term to com pensate fo r continu al deviatio n
of the short t e rm fue l t rim f rom t he c en tra l valu e. Su ch dev ia ti o n wil l oc cu r d ue to in di vi dual eng i ne differences,

Two types of systems are used.
Sequential Multiport Fuel Injection System
Fuel is injec ted into each cy linder d uring ea ch engi ne cyc le accordi ng to the firin g order. This system i s used
when the engine is running.
Simultaneous Multiport Fuel Injection System
Fuel is inject ed simul taneously into all eight cyli nd er s tw ic e e ach en gi ne cyc le . In o th er w ord s, pu ls e sign al s o f
the same width are simultaneously transmitted from the ECM.
The eight injectors will then receive the signals two times for each engine cycle.
This system is used when the engine is being s tarted and/or if the fail-safe system (CPU ) is operating.
FUEL SHUT-OFF
Fuel to each cylinder is cut off during deceleration or operation of t he engine at exc essively high speeds.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The ignition timing is controlled by the ECM to maintain the best airfuel ratio for every running condition of the engine. The ignition timing data is stored in the ECM. This data forms the map shown.
The ECM receives information such as the injection pulse width
crankshaft position sensor (POS) signal, and camshaft position sensor (PHASE) signal. Computing this information, ignition signals are
transmitted to the power transistor.
e.g., N: 1,800 rpm, Tp: 1.50 msec

During the foll owing condition s, the ignition ti ming is revised by the
ECM according to the other da ta stored in the ECM.

The knock sensor retard system is designed only for emergencies. The basic ignition timing is programmed
within the anti-knocking zone, if recommended fuel is used under dry conditions. The retard system does not
operate under normal driving conditions. If engine knocking occurs, the knock sensor monitors the condition.
The signal is transmitted to the ECM. The ECM retards the ignition timing to eliminate the knocking condition.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
NTD control system decides the target traction based on the accelerator operation status and the current driving condition. It then selects the engine torque target by correcting running resistance and atmospheric pressure, and controlling the power-train. Using electric throttle control actuator, it achieves the engine torque
development target which corresponds linearly to the driver's accelerator operation.
Running resistance correction control compares the engine torque estimate value, measured vehicle acceleration, and run ning resi stance on a f lat road , and es timates veh icle weig ht gain a nd running resistance variation caused by slopes to correct the engine torque estimate value.
Atmospheric pressure correction control compares the engine torque estimate value from the airflow rate and
the target engine torque for the target traction, and estimates variation of atmospheric pressure to correct the
target engine torque. This system achieves powerful driving without reducing engine performance in the practical speed range in mountains and high-altitude areas.

DTC AND 1ST TRIP DTC
The 1st trip DTC (wh ose number is t he same as the DT C number) is disp layed for the late st self-diagnos tic
result obtained. If the EC M memory w as cleared prev iously, and the 1st trip DTC did not reoccur, the 1st trip
DTC will not be displayed.
If a malfuncti on is d et ec ted during the 1st t r ip, th e 1s t trip DTC is stored in the ECM mem o ry. The MIL will not
light up (two trip detection logic). If the same malfunction is not detected in the 2nd trip (meeting the required
driving pattern), the 1 st trip DTC is c leared fr om the ECM m emory. If the same malfunction i s detecte d in the
2nd trip, both the 1st tri p DTC and DTC are s tored in the EC M memo ry and th e MIL lights up. In othe r words ,
the DTC is stored in the ECM memory and the MIL lights up when the same malfunction occurs in two consecutive trips. If a 1st trip DTC is stored and a non-diagnostic operation is performed between the 1st and 2nd
Revision; 2004 April2003 Q45

ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM
trips, only the 1st trip DTC will continue to be stored. For malfunctions that blink or light up the MIL during the
1st trip, the DTC and 1st trip DTC are stored in the ECM memory.
Procedures for clearin g the D TC and th e 1st t rip DTC from th e ECM memory are descri bed in EC-63, "
TO ERASE EMISSION-RELATED DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION" .
For malfunctions in which 1st trip DTCs are displayed, refer to EC-52, "
INFORMATION ITEMS" . These items are required by legal regulations to continuously monitor the system/
component. In addition, the items monitored non-continuously are also displayed on CONSULT-II.
1st trip DTC is specified in Mode 7 of SAE J1979. 1st trip DTC detection occurs without lighting up the MIL and
therefore does not warn the driver of a malfunction. However, 1st trip DTC detection will not prevent the vehicle from being tested, for example during Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) tests.
When a 1st trip DTC is detected, check, print out or write down and erase (1st trip) DTC and Freeze Frame
data as specified in “Work Flow” procedure Step II, refer to EC-75, "
firmation Procedure” or “Overall Fu nction Check” to try to dupli cate the malfunction. If the malfunction is duplicated, the item requires repair.
How to Read DTC and 1st Trip DTC
DTC and 1st trip DTC can be read by the following methods.
With CONSULT-II
With GST
CONSULT-II or GST (Generic Scan Tool) Examples: P0340, P1148, P1706, etc.
These DTCs are prescribed by SA E J2012.
(CONSULT-II also displays the malfunctioning com ponent or system .)
No Tools
The number of blinks of the M IL in the Diag nostic Test Mode II (Self-D iagnostic Res ults) indicates the DTC.
Example: 0340, 1148, 1706, etc.
These DTCs are controlled by NISSAN.
●1st trip DTC No. is the same as DTC No.
●Output of a DTC indicates a malfunction. However, GST or the Diagnostic Test Mode II do not indi-
cate whether the malfunction is still occurring or has occurred in the past and has returned to normal. CONSULT-II can identify malfun ction s tatus as shown below. Therefore, usi ng CONSULT-II (if
available) is recommen de d.
A sample of CONSULT-II display for DTC and 1st trip DTC is shown below. DTC or 1st trip DTC of a malfunction is displayed in SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS mode of CONSULT-II. Time data indicates how many times
the vehicle was driven after the last de tection of a DTC.
If the DTC is being detected currently, the time data will be “0”.

For example, the EGR malfunction (Priority: 2) was detected and the freeze frame data was stored in the 2nd
trip. After that when the misfire (Priority: 1) is detected in another trip, the freeze frame data will be updated
from the EGR malfunction to the misfire. The 1st trip freeze frame data is updated each time a different malfunction is dete cted. There is no priority fo r 1st trip freeze frame data. Howev er, once freeze frame data is
stored in the ECM memory , 1st trip freeze data is no longer stored (because only one freeze frame data or 1st
trip freeze frame data can be stored in the ECM). If freeze frame data is stored in the ECM memory and freeze
frame data with the same priority occurs later, the first (original) freeze frame data remains unchanged in the
ECM memory.
Both 1st trip freeze frame data and freeze frame data (along with the DTCs) are cleared when the ECM memory is erased. Procedures for clearing the ECM memory are described in EC-52, "
DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION ITEMS" .
SYSTEM READINESS TEST (SRT) CODE
System Readiness Test (SRT) code is specified in Mo de 1 of SAE J1979.
As part of an enhanced em iss ions tes t for Ins pect ion & Ma inte nanc e (I/M), certain states req uire th e status of
SRT be used to indicate whether the ECM has completed self-diagnosis of major emission systems and components. Completion must be verified in order for the emissions inspection to proceed.
If a vehicle is rejected for a State emissions inspection due to one or more SRT items indicating “INCMP”, use
the information in this Service Manual to set the SRT to “CMPLT”.
In most cases the ECM will automatically complete its self-diagnosis cycle during normal usage, and the SRT
status will indicate “CMPLT” for each application system. Once set as “CMPLT”, the SRT status remains
“CMPLT” until the self-diagnosis memory is erased.
Occasionally, certain portions of the self-diagnostic test may not be completed as a result of the customer's
normal driving pattern; the SRT will indicate “INCMP” for these items.
NOTE:
The SRT will also indicate “INCMP” if the self-diagnosis memory is erased for any reason or if the ECM mem-
ory power supply is interrupted for several hours.
If, during the state emissions inspection, the SRT indicates “CMPLT” for all test items, the inspector will continue with the em issions test. However, if the SRT indicat es “INCMP” for one or m ore of the SRT items the
vehicle is returned to the customer untested.
NOTE:
If MIL is “ON” duri ng the st a te emiss ions insp ection , the ve hicl e is al so ret urned to the cu stom er unte sted ev en
though the SRT indicate s “CMPLT” for all test items. Therefore, it is important to check SRT (“CMPLT”) and
DTC (No DTCs) before the inspection.

SRT is set as “CMPLT” after self-diagno sis has been performed one or more times. Completi on of SRT is
done regardless of whether the result is OK or NG. The set timing is different between OK and NG results and
is shown in the table below.

When all SRT related self-diagnoses showed OK results in a single cycle (Ignition OFF-ON-OFF), the SRT will
indicate “CMPLT”. → Case 1 above
When all SRT related self-diagnoses showed OK results through several different cycles, the SRT will indicate
“CMPLT” at the time the respective self-diagnoses have at least one OK result. → Case 2 above
If one or more SRT related self-diagnoses showed NG results in 2 consecutive cycles, the SRT will also indicate “CMPLT”. → Case 3 above
The table above s hows that the mi nimum number of cycles for setting SRT as “INCMP” is one (1) f or each
self-diagnosis (Case 1 & 2) or two (2) for one of self-diagnoses (Case 3). However, in preparation for the state
emissions inspection, it is unnecessary for each self-diagnosis to be executed twice (Case 3) for the following
reasons:
Revision; 2004 April2003 Q45
EC-58
ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) SYSTEM
●The SRT will indicate “CMPLT” at the time the respective self-diagnoses have one (1) OK result.
●The emissions inspection requires “CMPLT” of the SRT only with OK self-diagnosis results.
●When, during SRT driving pattern, 1st trip DTC (NG) is detected prior to “CMPLT” of SRT, the self-diagno-
sis memory must be erased from ECM after repair.
●If the 1st trip DTC is erased, all the SRT will indicate “INCMP”.
NOTE:
SRT can be set as “CMPLT” together with the DTC(s). Therefore, DTC check must always be carried out
prior to the state emissio n inspection ev en though the SRT indicates “CMPLT”.

Zone A refers to the range where the time, required for the diagnosis under normal conditions*, is the
shortest.
Zone B refers to the range whe re the diagnosis can s till be performed if the diag nosis is not complet ed
within zone A.
*: Normal conditions refer to the following:
●Sea level
●Flat road
●Ambient air temperature: 20 - 30°C (68 - 86°F)
●Diagnosis i s performed as quickly as possible u nder normal conditions.
Under different condition s [For exam ple: amb ient air temp erature oth er than 20 - 30°C (68 - 86°F)], diag nosis may also be per fo r m ed .
Pattern 1:
●The engine is started at the engine coolant temperature of −10 to 35°C (14 to 95°F)
(where the voltage between the ECM terminal 121 and ground is 3.0 - 4.3V).
●The engine must be operate d at idle speed until the engine c oolant temperature is greater than
70°C (158°F) (where the voltage between the ECM terminal 121 and ground is lower than 1.4V).
●The engine is started at the fuel tank temperature of warmer than 0°C (32°F) (where the voltage
between the ECM terminal 92 and ground is less than 4.1V).
Pattern 2:
●When steady-state driving is performed again even a fter it is interrupted, each diagnosis can be con-
ducted. In this case, the time required for diagnosis may be extended.
Pattern 3:
●The driving pattern outlined in *2 must be repeated at least 3 times.
Pattern 4:
●Tests are performed after the engine has been operated for at least 17 minutes.
●The accelerator pedal must be held very steady during stea dy-state dr iving.
●If the accelerator pedal is moved, the test must be conducted all over again.
*1: Depress the accelerator pedal until vehicle speed is 90 km/h (56 MPH), then release the accelerator pedal
and keep it released for more than 10 seconds. Depress the accelerator pedal until vehicle speed is 90 km/h
(56 MPH) again.
*2: Operate the vehicle in the following driving pattern.
1.Decelerate vehicle to 0 km/h (0 MPH) and let engine idle.
2.Repeat dr iving pattern shown at right at least 10 times.
–During acceleration, hold the accelerator pedal as steady as
possible.
*3: Checking the vehicle speed with GST is advised.

TEST VAL UE AND TEST LIMIT (GST ONLY — NOT APPLICABLE TO CONSULT-II)
The following is the information specified in Mode 6 of SAE J1979.
The test valu e is a parameter used to d etermine whether a system/circuit diagnostic test is “OK” or “NG” while
being monitored by the ECM during self-diagnosis. The test limit is a reference value which is specified as the
maximum or minimum value and is compared with the test value being monitored.
Items for which these data (test value and test limit) are displayed are the same as SRT code items (30 test
items).
These data (test value and test limit) are specified by Test ID (TID) and Component ID (CID) and can be displayed on the GST screen.

These DTC numbers are clarified in Diagnostic Tes t Mode II (SELF-DIAGNO STIC RESULTS)
DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE II — SELF-DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS
In this mode, the DTC and 1st trip DTC are indicated by the number of blinks of the MIL as shown below.
The DTC and 1st trip DTC are displayed at the same time. If the MIL does not illuminate in diagnostic test
mode I (Malfunction warning), all displayed items are 1st trip DTCs. If only one code is displayed when the MIL
illuminates in di agnostic te st mode II (SELF -DIAGNOSTIC RESULTS), it is a DTC; if two or more codes are
displayed, they may be either DTCs or 1st trip DTCs. DTC No. is same as that of 1st trip DTC. These unidentified codes can be identified by using the CONSULT-II or GST. A DTC will be used as an example for how to
read a code.
PBIA3905E
A particular trouble code can be identified by the number of four-digit numeral flashes. The “zero” is indicated
by the number of ten flashes. The length of time the 1,000th-digit numeral flashes on and off is 1.2 seconds
consisting of an ON (0.6-second) - OFF (0.6-second) cycle.
The 100th-digit numeral and lower digit numerals consist of a 0.3-second ON and 0.3-second OFF cycle.
A change from on e dig it numera l to an other o ccu rs at an interv al of 1 .0-se cond OFF. In other words, the later
numeral appears on the display 1.3 seconds after the former numeral has disappear ed.
A change from one trouble code to another occurs at an interval of 1.8-second OFF.
In this way, all the detected malfunctions are classified by their DTC numbers. The DTC “0000” refers to no
malfunction. (See EC-9, "

The engine has an ECM to control major systems such as fuel control, ignition co ntrol, idle air control system, etc. Th e ECM accepts
input signals from sensors and instantly drives act uators. It is essential that both input and output signals are proper and stable. At the
same time, it is important that there are no incidents such as vacuum
leaks, fouled spark plugs, or other incidents with the engine.
MEF036D
It is much more difficult to diagno se an i nciden t that oc curs inte rmittently rather than continuously. Most intermittent incidents are
caused by po or electric connections or improp er wiring. In this ca se,
careful checking of suspected circuits may help prevent the replacement of good parts.
A visual chec k only may no t find the cause of the incidents. A road
test with CONSULT-II (or GST) or a circuit tester connecte d should
be performed. Follow the “Work Flow” on EC-75
Before undertaking a ctual checks, take a fe w minutes to talk with a
customer who approaches with a driveability complaint. The customer can supply good information about such incidents, especially
intermittent ones. Find out what symptoms are present and under
what condition s they occur. A “Diagnostic Worksheet” l ik e t he ex am ple on EC-77

If the malfunction code is indicated, proceed to TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR DTC PXXXX.
If the normal code is indicated, proceed to the BASIC INSPECTION. (Refer to EC-82, "
form inspections according to the Symptom Matrix Chart. (Refer to EC-87, "
Identify where to begin diagnosis based on the relationship study between symptom and possible causes. Inspect the
system for mechanical binding, loose connectors or wiring damage using (tracing) “Harness Layouts”.
Gently shake the related connectors, components or wiring harness with CONSULT-II set in “DATA MONITOR
(AUTO TRIG)” mode.
Check the voltage of the related ECM terminals or monitor the output data from the related sensors with CONSULT-II.
Refer to EC-99, "
Mode" .
The “Diagnostic Procedure” in EC section contains a descr i ption based on open circuit inspection. A short circuit
inspection is also required for the circuit check in the Diagnostic Procedure. For details, refer to “Circuit Inspection” in
How to Perform Efficient Diagnosis for an Electrical Incident" .

Repair or replace the malfunction parts.
If malfunctioning part cannot be detected, perfor m EC-132, "
DENT" .
Once you have repaired the circuit or replaced a comp onent, you need to run the engine in the same conditions and
circumstances which resulted in the customer's initial complaint.
Perform the “DTC Confirmation Procedure” and confirm the normal code [DTC No. P0000] is detected. If the incident
is still detected in the final check, perform STEP VI by using a meth od different from the previous one.
Before returning the vehicle to the customer, be sure to erase the unnecessary (alre ady f ix ed) (1st trip ) DTC in ECM
and TCM (Transmission control module). (Refer to EC-63, "

DIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEET
Description
There are many opera ting conditio ns that lead to th e malfunction o f
engine compon ent s. A g ood g rasp of such condit ions can ma ke tro ubleshooting faster and more accurate.
In general, each customer feels differently about an incident. It is
important to fully understand the symptoms or conditions for a customer complaint.
Utilize a diagnostic worksheet like the one on the next page in order
to organize all the information for troubleshooting.
Some conditions may cause the MIL to come on steady or blink and
DTC to be detected. Examples:
●Ve hicle ran out of f uel, which caused the engine t o misfire.
●Fuel filler cap was left off or incorrectly screwed on, allowing fuel
to evaporate into the atmosphere.
