Stumble

DESCRIPTION
•  Engine stumbling.
•  Engine stumbling and glow indicator light is flashing.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  PCM DTC is detected.
•  Fuel tank fuel level low.
•  Air cleaner element restriction
•  Loose vacuum line(s)/vacuum connections
•  Loose intake-air system hose(s)/hose connections
•  Loose intake-air system tube(s)/tube connections
•  Coolant leakage
•  Oil leakage
•  Fuel leakage
•  Visibly damaged or worn parts
•  Loose or missing nuts or bolts
•  Incorrect or contaminated fuel in fuel tank
•  Electrical connector, wiring harness or component damaged
•  Erratic signal to PCM
―  APP sensor signal malfunction
•  Fuel injector malfunction
•  Fuel pressure sensor malfunction
•  Supply pump malfunction
•  PCM malfunction

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

RESULTS

ACTION

1
VERIFY PCM DTC
•  Perform the PCM DTC inspection using the M-MDS.
•  Are any DTCs present?
Yes
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
No
Go to the next step.
2
VISUALLY INSPECT RELATED PART CONDITION
•  Visually inspect the following:
Mechanical:
―  Fuel level
―  Air cleaner element
―  Vacuum line(s)/vacuum connections
―  Hose(s)/hose connections
―  Tube(s)/tube connections
―  Fuel system leaks (Fuel filter, fuel supply line(s), fuel return line(s), high-pressure fuel supply line(s), fuel injectors, fuel rail, supply pump)
―  Contaminated fuel
Electrical:
―  Fuse(s)
―  Relay(s)
―  Loose or corroded connector(s) (PCM, sensor(s), switch(es))
―  Damaged or worn PCM, switch(es) and/or sensor(s)
―  Wiring harness
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results.
Repeat Step 2.
No
Go to the next step.
3
VERIFY CURRENT INPUT SIGNAL STATUS
Caution
•  While performing this step, always operate the vehicle in a safe and lawful manner.
•  When the M-MDS is used to observe monitor system status while driving, be sure to have another technician with you, or record the data in the M-MDS using the PID/DATA MONITOR AND RECORD capturing function and inspect later.
•  Access the following PIDs using the M-MDS:
―  APP1
―  APP2
•  Monitor the each PID while driving the vehicle.
•  Are all PIDs normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
If the APP1 and/or APP2 PIDs are not specified:
•  Inspect the APP sensor and related wiring harness.
Repair or replace malfunctioning part.
4
INSPECT FUEL INJECTOR
•  Inspect the fuel injector for each cylinder.
•  Are fuel injectors normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the suspected fuel injector.
5
DETERMINE IF MALFUNCTION CAUSE IS SUPPLY PUMP/FUEL METERING VALVE OR OTHER
Caution
•  While performing this step, always operate the vehicle in a safe and lawful manner.
•  When the M-MDS is used to observe monitor system status while driving, be sure to have another technician with you, or record the data in the M-MDS using the PID/DATA MONITOR AND RECORD capturing function and inspect later.
•  Access the following PIDs using the M-MDS:
―  FRP
―  FRP_DSD
―  FUEL_V_DSD
•  Monitor the each PID while driving the vehicle.
•  Are all PIDs normal?
Yes
Replace the fuel.
(Poor fuel quality (e.g.: include water contamination, winter/summer blend))
•  Flush the fuel line as necessary.
No
Inspect the fuel pressure sensor and related wiring harness.
•  If there is malfunction, repair or replace malfunctioning part.
If the ECT PID is not specified:
•  If there is no malfunction, replace the supply pump.
6
Verify test results.
•  If normal, return to the diagnostic index to service any additional symptoms.
•  If the 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, reprogram the PCM if a later calibration is available. Retest.
