PRECAUTIONS IN DIAGNOSING TROUBLES
PRECAUTIONS IN IDENTIFYING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE
ECM
• Before identifying diagnostic trouble code indicated through Suzuki scan tool, don't disconnect couplers from
ECM, battery cable from battery, ECM ground wire harness from engine.
Such disconnection will clear trouble codes for engine and emission control system and immobilizer control
system stored in memory of ECM.
• Take a note of diagnostic trouble code indicated first.
IMMOBILIZER CONTROL MODULE
• Take a note of diagnostic trouble code indicated first.
INTERMITTENT TROUBLES
• There is case where Suzuki scan tool indicate a diagnostic trouble code representing a trouble which
occurred only temporarily and has gone. In such case, it may occur that good parts are replaced unneces-
sarily. To prevent such accident, be sure to follow instructions given below when checking by using "Diag-
nostic Flow Table".
– When trouble can be identified, it is not an intermittent one :
Check coil antenna, ignition key, wires and each connection and if they are all in good condition, substi-
tute a known-good ECM and recheck.
– When trouble can not be identified but Suzuki scan tool indicate a trouble code :
Diagnose trouble by using that code No. and if ignition key, coil antenna, wires and each connection are
all in good condition, turn OFF ignition switch and then ON.
Then check what Suzuki scan tool indicate.Only when they indicate trouble code again, substitute a known-
good ECM or Immobilizer Control Module and check again.
If they indicate not trouble code but normal code, it means that an intermittent trouble did occur and has gone. In
this case, check wires and connections carefully again.
