Note:
(1): D-J Method: When the engine load is light like at idling or low speed, the ECU determines the injection quantity by calculating from the throttle vacuum (vacuum sensor output voltage) and engine speed (crankshaft sensor output voltage). This method is called D-J method.
(2): α-N Method: As the engine speed increases, and the engine load turns middle to heavy, the ECU determines the injection quantity by calculating from the throttle opening (throttle sensor output voltage) and the engine speed. This method is called α-N method.
*: This depends on the number of stopped cylinders.
The main throttle sensor is a rotating variable resistor that change output voltage according to throttle operating. The ECU senses this voltage change and determines fuel injection quantity, and ignition timing according to engine rpm, and throttle opening.

Service Code ErasingAlternator Inspection
There are three types of alternator failures: short, open
(wire burned out), or loss in rotor magnetism. A short or
open in one of the coil wires will result in either a low output,
or no output at all. A loss in rotor magnetism, which may be
caused by dropping or hitting the alternator, by leav ...
Instrument display brightness control
The brightness of the tachometer
LED segments and illumination of the

Clutch Plate, Wear, Damage Inspection
Visually inspect the friction and steel plates for signs of
seizure, overheating (discoloration), or uneven wear.
Measure the thickness of each friction plate [A] at several
points.
If any plates show signs of damage, or if they have worn
past the service limit, replace them with new on ...
