DTC P115B:00 [MZR-CD 2.2]

id0102f3156700

DTC P115B:00

Low fuel level - forced fuel shutdown
DETECTION CONDITION
•  The PCM monitors the fuel level of the fuel tank using the fuel gauge signal from the instrument cluster. If the total of fuel injection amount calculated by the PCM after the fuel level falls below the E-line is above threshold (greater than P0313:00), the PCM determines that the fuel level is low.
Diagnostic support note
•  The MIL does not illuminate if the PCM detect the above malfunction.
•  FREEZE FRAME DATA is not available.
•  The DTC is stored in the PCM memory.
Note
•  A forced engine stall is detected by the PCM fail-safe function. The PCM after stores this DTC.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  No fuel in tank
•  Fuel gauge (in instrument cluster) malfunction
•  Fuel gauge sender unit malfunction
•  PCM malfunction

Go to troubleshooting for DTC on FREEZE FRAME DATA (mode2).
(See DTC TABLE [MZR-CD 2.2].)
4
INSPECT WHETHER MALFUNCTION IS LOW FUEL LEVEL OR INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
•  Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
•  Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS.
•  Refill the fuel above 9 L {2 US gal, 2 lmp gal}.
•  Start and warm up the engine.
•  Retrieve the DTC using the M-MDS.
•  Is the DTC P0313:00, P115A:00 or P115B:00 present?
Note
•  If the refueling amount is low, the PCM stored DTC P0313:00, P0115A:00 or P115A:00 continues.
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
If the other DTC or PENDING CODE is stored:
Go to the applicable DTC troubleshooting procedure.
(See DTC TABLE [MZR-CD 2.2].)
If any DTC is not stored:
The troubleshooting is completed (the cause of this DTC is low fuel level), then go to the Step 6.
5
REINSPECT WHETHER MALFUNCTION IS LOW FUEL LEVEL OR INSTRUMENT CLUSTER
•  Refill the fuel till fuel level is above 9 L {2 US gal, 2 lmp gal}.
•  Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS.
•  Refill the fuel above 9 L {2 US gal, 2 lmp gal}.
•  Start and warm up the engine.
•  Retrieve the DTC using the M-MDS.
•  Is the DTC P0313:00, P115A:00 or P115B:00 present?
Yes
Inspect the fuel gauge.
(See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER INSPECTION.)
Repair or replace malfunctioning part, according to inspection result.
Then go to the next step.
No
If the other DTC or PENDING CODE is stored:
Go to the applicable DTC troubleshooting procedure.
(See DTC TABLE [MZR-CD 2.2].)
If any DTC is not stored:

6
VERIFY TROUBLESHOOTING OF DTC P115B:00 COMPLETED
•  Make sure to reconnect all disconnected connectors.
•  Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS.
•  Start and warm up the engine.
•  Is this DTC present?
Yes
Replace the PCM, then go to the next step.
(See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [MZR-CD 2.2].)
No
Go to the next step.
