DTC P0204 (Flash Code 274) Injector Circuit - Cylinder 4 (RZ4E-TC)

1. DTC P0204 description

The ECM calculates the optimum fuel injection ON time based on the data sent from various sensors. The ECM supplies high voltage to the injector charge voltage circuit, grounds the injector solenoid control circuit, and drives the cylinder injectors. If the ECM detects an abnormal condition in the cylinder No. 4 injector circuit, the DTC is set.

2. Condition for setting DTC P0204

Condition for running the DTC

  • The battery voltage is 9 to 16 V.
  • The ignition voltage is 9 to 16 V.
  • The ignition switch is ON.
  • The engine is running.
  • DTCs P0201, P06AF, P1261, and P2146 are not set.
