•  The DTC is stored in the PCM memory.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  A/F sensor looseness
•  Leakage exhaust system
•  Purge solenoid valve malfunction
―  Improper connection purge solenoid hose
•  Fuel supply system malfunction or improper fuel line pressure
―  Fuel leakage in fuel line between fuel distributor and fuel pump
―  Clogged or restricted in fuel filter (built-in fuel pump unit)
―  Pressure regulator malfunction (built-in fuel pump unit)
―  Fuel pump unit malfunction
•  Engine malfunction
―  Engine coolant leakage
―  Insufficient engine compression
•  A/F sensor malfunction
―  A/F sensor related wiring harness malfunction
―  A/F sensor deterioration
•  PCM malfunction

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Go to the troubleshooting procedure for DTC on FREEZE FRAME DATA (Mode 2).
2
VERIFY FREEZE FRAME DATA (MODE 2)/SNAPSHOT DATA AND DIAGNOSTIC MONITORING TEST RESULTS HAVE BEEN RECORDED
•  Have the FREEZE FRAME DATA (Mode 2)/snapshot data and DIAGNOSTIC MONITORING TEST RESULTS (A/F sensor, HO2S related) been recorded?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Record the FREEZE FRAME DATA (Mode 2)/snapshot data and DIAGNOSTIC MONITORING TEST RESULTS on the repair order, then go to the next step.
3
VERIFY RELATED SERVICE INFORMATION AVAILABILITY
•  Verify related Service Information availability.
•  Is any related Service Information available?
Yes
Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available Service Information.

Retighten the A/F sensor, then go to Step 14.
6
INSPECT GAS LEAKAGE FROM EXHAUST SYSTEM
•  Visually inspect for the exhaust gas leakage between exhaust manifold and A/F sensor.
•  Is there any leakage?
Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results, then go to Step 14.
No
Go to the next step.
7
INSPECT PURGE SOLENOID VALVE AND EVAPORATIVE HOSE

Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results, then go to Step 14.
No
Go to the next step.
8
INSPECT FUEL LINE PRESSURE
•  Switch the ignition to off.
Note
•  If the engine will not start, inspect the fuel line pressure with ignition is switched to ON.
•  Inspect the fuel line pressure while the engine running.
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Go to Step 11.
9
INSPECT FUEL LINE LEAKAGE
•  Visually inspect the leakage from fuel line between fuel distributor and fuel pump unit.
•  Is there any leakage?
Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results, then go to Step 14.
No
Go to the next step.
10
INSPECT FUEL FILTER
•  Visually inspect the foreign materials or stain inside fuel filter (low-pressure side).
•  Is there any foreign materials or stain?
Yes
Clean the fuel tank and filter (low-pressure side), then go to Step 14.
No
Replace the fuel pump unit, then go to Step 14.
11
INSPECT SEALING OF ENGINE COOLANT PASSAGE
•  Perform the “ENGINE COOLANT LEAKAGE INSPECTION”.
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results, then go to Step 14.
No
Go to the next step.
