BACKGROUND INFORMATION
DTC 111 and DTC 126 (Scan tool codes P0411 and P0138)

^

^
Engine stalls during warm-up at cold ambient temperatures.
^
Long restart times after stall at cold ambient temperatures.
^
Rough idle after warm engine startup.
^
Engine rpm rises suddenly when air conditioning is turned on.
^
On manual transmission models, engine rpm drops suddenly after releasing the clutch.
On manual transmission models, engine surges under light acceleration.
On affected vehicles, DTC 111 and DTC 126 may be due to the PCM software program.
After normal diagnosis, the pulsed secondary air injection (aspirator) valve must be checked and replaced if necessary. Then the following PCM
procedures must be performed:
^
On vehicles produced on or before 6/16/94, reprogram the PCM, using reprogramming cartridge MIT992006. This cartridge is included in
Reprogramming Kit MIT992000-A, which was distributed to dealers earlier this year. Refer to the "PROCEDURE" section of this Technical Service
Bulletin for details.
^
On vehicles produced from 6/17/94 to 9/10/94, install a new, recalibrated PCM. Refer to the chart on page 4 of this Technical Service Bulletin for
details.
DTC 113 (Scan tool code P0441)
On affected vehicles, DTC 113 may be due to the PCM software program. To eliminate DTC 113, reprogramming cartridge MIT992007 has been
designed to modify the PCM program. This cartridge was shipped to dealers during the week of March 13,1995.
