SFI System: Precaution: Precaution
- INITIALIZATION NOTE:
- Perform initialization (throttle position) after replacing the throttle body assembly or cleaning any throttle body components. Refer to INSTALLATION - Step 11 .
- Perform initialization (throttle position) after reconnecting the battery cable or replacing the ECM. Refer to INSTALLATION - Step 11 .
- Perform RESET MEMORY (AT initialization) when replacing the automatic transaxle assembly, engine assembly or ECM. Refer to INITIALIZATION .
- Perform REGISTRATION (VIN registration) when replacing the ECM See step 1.
HINT:
Initialization cannot be completed by only removing the battery.
- FOR USING THE TECHSTREAM WARNING:
Observe the following items for safety reasons:
- Before using the tester, read the instruction manual.
- Prevent the tester cable from being caught on the pedals, shift lever and steering wheel when driving with the tester connected to the vehicle.
- When driving the vehicle for testing purposes using the tester, two persons are required. One is for driving the vehicle, and the other operates the tester.
- FOR USING BATTERY DURING INSPECTION
- While using the battery during inspection, do not bring the positive and negative tester probes too close to each other as a short circuit may occur.
- COOLING FAN SYSTEM NOTE:
- When the ignition switch is turned off and the engine temperature is high, the cooling fans may operate for approximately 3 minutes.
- After turning the ignition switch off, keep hands and objects away from the fans when they are operating.
HINT:
- If all of the following are met for a certain period of time during a few minute period immediately before the engine is stopped, the electric fans will continue to operate for 3 minutes after the engine is stopped. This is performed to ensure restart ability and stabilize idle speed.
- The Techstream indicates a very high coolant temperature.
- The Techstream indicates a high outside air temperature.
- The vehicle has been driven under high load (driving on an uphill or equivalent).
- The following sensors are used for this control:
- Coolant temperature sensor
- Outside air temperature sensor
- MAF meter
- Vehicle speed sensors
