1. Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Valve Connector - Disconnect


2. HDS - Connect


1.
Connect the HDS to the DLC (A) located under the driver’s side of the dashboard.

2.
Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), or press the engine start/stop button to select the ON mode.

NOTE: Make sure the HDS communicates with the PCM. If it doesn’t, go to the DLC circuit troubleshooting.

3. Idle Speed - Inspect

1.
Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm without load (CVT in P or N, M/T in neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.

2.
Check the idle speed under no load conditions: headlights, blower fan, radiator fan, audio system, and air conditioner off.

Idle speed should be:

M/T
780 ± 50 rpm (in neutral)
CVT
720 ± 50 rpm (in P or N)

3.
Let the engine idle for 1 minute with high electric load (A/C on, temperature set to max cool, blower fan on high, headlights on high beam).

Idle speed should be:

M/T
780 ± 50 rpm (in neutral)
CVT
720 ± 50 rpm (in P or N)

NOTE: If the idle speed is not within specification, do the PCM idle learn procedure. If the idle speed is still not within specification, go to the symptom troubleshooting.
