Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

RESULTS

ACTION

1
Retrieve the PCM, BCM, DSC HU/CM, instrument cluster and climate control unit (full-auto air conditioner) DTCs using the M-MDS.
Are any DTCs present?
Yes
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
No
Go to the next step.
2
Verify the condition of the i-stop warning light (amber) when the engine restarts.
Does the i-stop warning light (amber) illuminate?
Yes
Go to Step 4.
No
Go to the next step.
3*
Inspect the i-stop OFF switch.
Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Replace the i-stop OFF switch.
No
Repair or replace the wiring harness between i-stop OFF switch terminal I and PCM terminal 1AV for a possible short to ground.
4
Switch the ignition to ON.
Access the following PCM PIDs using the M-MDS when the accelerator pedal is not depressed:
•  APP1
•  APP2
Are the PID values normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the accelerator pedal.
5*
Switch the ignition to ON.
Access the PCM PID CPP using the M-MDS.
Does the CPP PID value change according to the amount the clutch pedal is depressed?
Yes
Go to Step 7.
No
Go to the next step.
6
Inspect the clutch stroke sensor.
Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Replace the clutch stroke sensor.
No
Inspect the wiring harness between the following terminals for a short or open circuit:
•  Clutch stroke sensor terminal C—PCM terminal 1N
•  Clutch stroke sensor terminal D—PCM terminal 1P
•  Clutch stroke sensor terminal B—PCM terminal 1AS
Repair or replace the suspected wiring harness.
7
Put the vehicle in an idling-stop condition (engine stopped).
Access the PCM PID BBP using the M-MDS with the brake pedal depressed and the engine stopped.
Does the BBP PID value remain less than −45 kPa {−0.46 kgf/cm2, −6.5 psi}?
Yes
Go to Step 10.
No
Go to the next step.
8
Perform the vacuum function inspection for the power brake unit and the vacuum loss inspection.
Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results.
No
Go to the next step.
9
Inspect the power brake unit vacuum sensor.
Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Replace the power brake unit vacuum sensor.
No
Inspect the wiring harness between the following terminals for a short or open circuit:
•  Power brake unit vacuum sensor terminal A—PCM terminal 1P
•  Power brake unit vacuum sensor terminal B—PCM terminal 1Q
•  Power brake unit vacuum sensor terminal C—PCM terminal 1N
Repair or replace the suspected wiring harness.
10
Remove any non-genuine electrical accessory.
Is the frequency of the engine restarting from the i-stop off condition the same as that of another vehicle of the same model?
Yes
The system is normal.
•  Explain to the customer that the frequency of the engine restarting increases due to the effect of the non-genuine electrical accessory installed.
No
Go to the next step.
11
Inspect the main battery.
Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Go to Step 14.
12
Recharge the main battery.
Inspect the main battery again.
Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Replace the main battery.
No
Go to the next step.
13
Inspect the generator.
Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results.
No
Go to the next step.
14
Measure the voltage at the climate control unit terminal 1G when the driver-side temperature setting is MAX HOT and MAX COLD.
Is the voltage normal?
Yes
Go to Step 16.
No
Go to the next step.
15*
Inspect the driver-side air mix actuator.
Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Replace the driver-side air mix actuator.
No
Inspect the air mix actuator and linkage for sticking.
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results.
16
Measure the voltage at the climate control unit terminal 1O while the engine is stopped via i-stop control.
Do the elapsed time and voltage values change?
Yes
Go to Step 18.
No
Go to the next step.
17
Inspect the heater core temperature sensor.
Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Replace the heater core temperature sensor.
No
Repair or replace the wiring harness between heater core temperature sensor terminal B and PCM terminal 1O for a possible short or open circuit.
18
Verify the heater core temperature sensor installation condition.
Is the heater core temperature sensor installation condition normal?
Yes
Replace the PCM.
No
Repair the heater core temperature sensor installation position.
19
INSPECT THE CLIMATE CONTROL UNIT
•  Inspect the climate control unit.
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Replace the climate control unit.
No
Go to the next step.
20
Verify the test results.
•  If normal, return to the diagnostic index to service any additional symptoms. (See SYMPTOM DIAGNOSTIC INDEX [MZR 2.0 DISI i-stop].)
•  If a malfunction remains, inspect the related Service Information and perform the repair or diagnosis.
―  If the vehicle is repaired, troubleshooting is completed.
―  If the vehicle is not repaired or additional diagnostic information is not available, replace the PCM. (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [MZR 2.0 DISI i-stop].)
