Description
While the engine is running, the Volume Airflow (VAF) sensor outputs a pulse signal which corresponds to the volume of air flow. The ECM or PCM checks whether the frequency of this signal output by the VAF sensor while the engine is running is at or above the set value. When the throttle position sensor output voltage is low, the ECM or PCM causes the power transistor to be ON to send an airflow sensor reset signal to the VAF sensor. In response to the reset signal, the VAF sensor resets the filter circuit and improves the ability of the airflow sensor to measure the amount of air in a small air intake region.
Operation
The VAF sensor power is supplied from the MFI relay (terminal No. 4) and ground is provided on ECM harness connector C-119 terminal No. 40 (M/T) or PCM harness connector C-120 terminal No. 16 (A/T). A 5-volt power is applied to the VAF sensor output terminal (terminal No. 3) from ECM (terminal No. 90) or PCM (terminal No. 65). The VAF sensor generates a pulse signal when the output terminal and ground are opened/closed (open/short).

The fuel tank differential pressure sensor (terminal 2) is grounded through the ECM (terminal 92 - M/T) or PCM (terminal 57 - A/T). The fuel tank differential pressure sensor (terminal 1) returns a voltage signal to the ECM (terminal 61 - M/T) or PCM (terminal 92 - A/T) that is proportional to the pressure in the fuel tank. see scheme 16, see scheme 20, see scheme 60 and see scheme 76.

Overview Of Troubleshooting
DTC P0451 can be set by faulty fuel differential pressure sensor, related circuit or faulty ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T).
To check a system blockage, do a performance test which uses a mechanical vacuum gauge and scan tool set on the fuel tank differential pressure sensor (TANK PRS SNSR 73.) The mechanical gauge reading is used to verify scan tool reading. A comparison of the mechanical gauge to scan tool determines problem in the system.
To judge if the fuel tank differential pressure sensor is defective, the ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T) monitors the fuel tank differential pressure sensor output voltage. Based on the test conditions and judgment criteria, the ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T) judges if the fuel tank differential pressure sensor output voltage is normal.
A 5-volt reference voltage is supplied to the power terminal of the fuel tank differential pressure sensor (terminal No. 3) from the ECM (terminal No. 81 - M/T) or PCM (terminal No. 46 - A/T). The ground terminal (terminal No. 2) is grounded with the ECM (terminal No. 92 - M/T) or PCM (terminal No. 57 - A/T). A voltage proportional to the pressure in the fuel tank is sent from the output terminal of the fuel tank differential pressure sensor (terminal No. 1) to the ECM (terminal No. 61 - M/T) or PCM (terminal No. 92 - A/T). see scheme 16, see scheme 20, see scheme 60 and see scheme 76.
The DTC P0452 can be set if either faulty fuel differential pressure sensor, related circuit or ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T).

The DTC P0453 can be set if a faulty fuel differential pressure sensor, related circuit or ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T) exists. To check a system blockage, do a performance test which uses a mechanical vacuum gauge and scan tool set on the fuel tank differential pressure sensor (TANK PRS SNSR73.) The mechanical gauge reading is used to verify scan tool reading. A comparison of the mechanical gauge to scan tool determines the problem in the system.
The fuel tank may be under a slight pressure or vacuum depending on the state of the evaporative emission (EVAP) system. The ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T) monitors and responds to these pressure/vacuum changes. If the pressure/vacuum varies from the specified range, the ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T) will set DTC P0455. The ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T) energizes the evaporative emission ventilation solenoid to shut off the evaporative emission canister outlet port. The evaporative emission purge solenoid is activated to apply engine manifold vacuum to the EVAP system. When the fuel system develops a vacuum of 0.29 psi (2 kPa), the evaporative emission purge solenoid is turned off and the fuel system vacuum is maintained at 0.29 psi (2 kPa). The ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T) determines whether there is a leak or clog in the fuel system by measuring the change in vacuum inside the fuel tank. The test is stopped when fuel vapor pressure is determined to be too high. see scheme 12and see scheme 60.
The ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T) monitors the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System pressure. The ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T) controls the evaporative emission ventilation solenoid. It closes the evaporative emission ventilation solenoid to seal the evaporative emission canister side of the system. The evaporative emission purge solenoid is opened to allow manifold vacuum to create low pressure (vacuum) in the EVAP system. When the EVAP system develops a vacuum of 0.29 psi (2 kPa), the evaporative emission purge solenoid is closed and the fuel system vacuum is maintained at 0.29 psi (2 kPa). The ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T) determines whether there is a leak in the EVAP system by monitoring the vacuum inside the fuel tank. The test is stopped when fuel vapor pressure exceeds predetermined limits. see scheme 12and see scheme 60.
The drive signal from the fuel gauge circuit is split to the gauge and to input in ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T). The ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T) detects the amount of fuel left in the fuel tank with this signal, and also controls the fuel level warning light.
The fuel gauge drive signal is input in ECM (terminal No. 74 - M/T) or PCM (terminal No. 60 - A/T). see scheme 16and see scheme 78.

The vehicle speed sensor converts vehicle speed into pulse signals and inputs them to the ECM. The vehicle speed sensor outputs a pulse signal while the vehicle is driven. The ECM checks whether the pulse signal is output.
A 5-volt reference voltage is applied to the vehicle speed sensor output terminal (terminal No. 3) from the ECM (terminal No. 86). The vehicle speed sensor generates a pulse signal when the output terminal is opened and grounded. see scheme 12, see scheme 16, see scheme 28 and (Scheme 132).
Scheme 130
The amount of air taken in during idling is regulated by the opening and closing of the servo valve located in the air passage that bypasses the throttle body. If there is a malfunction of the IAC system, the actual engine speed will not be identical to the target engine speed. The ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T) checks the difference between actual engine speed and target engine speed.
The idle air control motor power is supplied from the MFI relay (terminal No. 4). The ECM (terminals No. 4, 5, 17 and 18 - M/T) or PCM (terminals No. 14, 15, 28 and 29 - A/T) drives the stepper motor by sequentially turning on the power transistors in the ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T) and providing ground to the idle air control motor (terminals No. 1, 3, 4 and 6).

The Power Steering Pressure Switch (PSPS) converts the existence of a power steering load into a high/low voltage, and inputs it into the ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T). When steering wheel is turned, hydraulic pressure rises. The PSPS closes and the applied battery voltage will be grounded. With this, the PSPS output voltage will fluctuate between zero volts and 12 volts. While driving with the steering wheel in straight-ahead position, the PSPS turns off. The ECM (M/T) or PCM (A/T) checks whether the PSPS turns off or on during driving.
Battery voltage is applied to the PSPS output terminal (terminal No. 1) from the ECM (terminal No. 37 - M/T) or PCM (terminal No. 52 - A/T) via the resistor in the ECM or PCM. see scheme 12, see scheme 16 and (Scheme 137).

Scheme 134
The clutch pedal position switch inputs the high/low voltage into the ECM in accordance with whether the clutch pedal is being pressed. When the driver presses the clutch pedal while shifting gears, the contact of the clutch pedal position switch closes, causing the low signal to be input into the ECM. At this time, the ECM effects a correction to reduce the fuel injection volume.
A battery positive voltage is applied to the clutch pedal position switch output terminal (terminal No. 2) from the ECM (terminal No. 43) via the resistor in the ECM. see scheme 87
