Diagnostic procedure

Step

Inspection

Results

Action

1
VERIFY DTC
•  Perform the DTC inspection for the following modules.
―  PCM
―  DSC HU/CM
―  SAS control module
―  TCM (ATX)
―  Body control module (BCM)
―  Dash-electrical supply unit
•  Are any DTCs displayed?
Yes
Repair the malfunctioning location according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting.
No
Go to the next step.
2
DETERMINE IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS BATTERY VOLTAGE DECREASE OR OTHER
•  Start the engine and warm it up completely.
•  Idle the engine.
•  Access the PCM PID BATT_SOC using the M-MDS.
•  Is the BATT_SOC PID value above 68%?
Yes
Go to Step 4.
No
Recharge the battery, then go to the next step.
3
INSPECT BATTERY FOR MALFUNCTION
•  Inspect the applicable part.
•  Is the part normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification 1.
4
INSPECT GENERATOR FOR MALFUNCTION
•  Inspect the applicable part.
•  Is the part normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification 1.
5
VERIFY ENGINE SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
•  Perform malfunction diagnosis related to the engine system according to “ACCELERATION MALFUNCTION“.
•  Has the malfunction symptom been eliminated?
Yes
Perform the repair completion verification 1.
No
Go to the next step.
Repair completion verification 1
VERIFY THAT VEHICLE IS REPAIRED
•  Install/connect the part removed/disconnected during the troubleshooting procedure.
•  Has the malfunction symptom been eliminated?
Yes
Complete the symptom troubleshooting. (Explain contents of repair to customer)
No
Refer to the controller area network (CAN) malfunction diagnosis flow to inspect for a CAN communication error.
•  If the CAN communication is normal, perform the diagnosis from Step 1.
―  If the malfunction recurs, go to the next step.
Repair completion verification 2
VERIFY IF MALFUNCTION IS CAUSED BY NOT PERFORMING PCM REPROGRAMMING
•  Verify repair information and verify that there is a new calibration in the PCM.
•  Is there a new calibration in the PCM?
Yes
Perform the PCM reprogramming and verify if the malfunction symptom was corrected.
•  If the malfunction recurs, replace the PCM.
No
Replace the PCM.
