id0103f2803700


Input Signal System Investigation Procedure

1.  Find an unusual signal. (See Finding unusual signals.)

2.  Locate its source. (See Locating the source of unusual signals.)

3.  Repair or replace the defective part.

4.  Confirm that the unusual signal has been erased.


Finding unusual signals

While referring to ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC TEST, use the PID/DATA monitor and record function to inspect the input signal system relating to the problem.

1.  Start the engine and idle the vehicle. You can assume that any signals that are out of the specifications by a wide margin are unusual.

2.  When recreating the problem, any sudden change in monitor input signals that is not consciously created by the driver can be judged as unusual.


Locating the source of unusual signals

Caution
•  Compare the M-MDS monitor voltage with the measurement voltage using the digital measurement system function. If you use another tester, misreading may occur.
•  When measuring voltage, attach the tester GND to the GND of the PCM that is being tested, or to the engine itself. If this is not done, the measured voltage and actual voltage may differ.
•  After connecting the pin to a waterproof coupler, confirming continuity and measuring the voltage, inspect the waterproof connector for cracks. If there are any, use sealant to fix them. Failure to do this may result in deterioration of the wiring harness or terminal from water damage, leading to problems with the vehicle.

4.  Verify that DTC P0522, P0523, P1680, P1681, P1682, P1683, P1684, P1685, P1686 or P1687 is not displayed.

•  If DTCs are displayed, perform DTC inspection. (See DTC TABLE [13B-MSP].)


Purge Control System Inspection

1.  Start the engine.

2.  Disconnect the vacuum hose at quick release connector.

3.  Put a finger to the purge solenoid valve and verify that there is no vacuum applied when the engine is cold.

•  If there is vacuum, inspect the following:
―  Wiring harness and connectors (Purge solenoid valve—PCM terminal 2C)
―  Purge solenoid valve

4.  Warm up the engine to the normal operating temperature.

5.  Stop the engine.

6.  Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2 and verify that the DTC P0443 is shown. Perform the DTC inspection. (See DTC TABLE [13B-MSP].)

7.  Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.

8.  Select the ECT PID.

9.  Verify that the engine is warmed up completely.

•  If the engine is not warmed up completely, perform the ECT sensor inspection.

10.  Set the vehicle on the dynamometer or chassis roller.

Warning
•  When the dynamometer or chassis roller is operating, there is a possibility that the operator may come into contact with or be caught up in the rotating parts, leading to serious injuries or death. When performing work while the dynamometer or chassis roller is operating, be careful not to come into contact with or be caught up in any of the rotating parts.

11.  Drive the vehicle at an engine speed of approx. 2000 rpm for 30 s or more.

12.  Put a finger to the purge solenoid valve and verify that there is no vacuum applied during above step 2.

•  If there is no vacuum, inspect the following:
―  Wiring harness and connector (Main relay – purge solenoid valve—PCM terminal 2C)
―  Purge solenoid valve
―  MAF, APP1, APP2, TP_REL and LOAD PIDs
•  If there is vacuum, inspect the following:
―  Vacuum hose (Purge solenoid valve—charcoal canister)


A/C Cut-off Control System Inspection

1.  Start the engine.

2.  Turn the A/C switch and fan switch on.

3.  Verify that the A/C compressor magnetic clutch actuates.

•  If it does not actuate, go to the symptom troubleshooting “No.23 A/C does not work sufficiently“.
(See NO.23 A/C DOES NOT WORK SUFFICIENTLY [13B-MSP].)

4.  Fully open the throttle valve and verify that the A/C compressor magnetic clutch does not actuate for 2—5 s.

•  If it actuates, inspect as follows:
―  A/C relay
―  Open or short to GND circuit in wiring harness and connectors (Ignition switch—A/C relay—PCM terminal 1I)
―  A/C related parts
―  APP1, APP2 PIDs


Variable Fresh Air Duct (VFAD) Control System Operation Inspection (With VFAD)

1.  Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.

2.  Access the RPM PID.

3.  Start the engine.

4.  Inspect shutter valve operation under the following conditions.

VFAD shutter valve operation

•  If the shutter valve operation is not as specified, inspect VFAD solenoid valve. (See VARIABLE FRESH AIR DUCT (VFAD) SOLENOID VALVE INSPECTION [13B-MSP].)
―  If the VFAD solenoid valve is not normal, replace VFAD solenoid valve.
―  If the VFAD solenoid valve is normal, inspect the following:
•  Open or short circuit PCM terminal 1AE and VFAD solenoid valve terminal B
•  Open or short circuit main relay and VFAD solenoid valve terminal B
•  Vacuum hose looseness or damage
•  Vacuum chamber cracked or damaged
•  Shutter valve is stuck open or closed.


Rotor Balance Test

Warning
•  High-voltage in the ignition system can cause strong electrical shock which can result in serious injury. Avoid direct contact to the vehicle body during the rotor balance test.
•  High-voltage spark will negatively effect the engine control. To prevent this, the high-tension leads keep away from sensors and wiring harnesses.
Caution
•  If the rotor balance test is performed over a long period of time, it may cause overheating or damage to the catalytic converter. Be very careful when performing the rotor balance test.
Note
•  The purpose of the rotor balance test is to find weak or non-contributing rotors. In this test, the high-tension leads are disconnected one by one to shut off the ignition on each rotor with the engine running. By carrying out the rotor balance test, a total determination of the compression pressure, air/fuel mixture, and ignition is possible.

1.  Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.

2.  Access the RPM PID.

3.  Start the engine.

4.  Remove high-tension lead from each rotor and monitor the RPM PID value.

5.  If the RPM PID does not drop, inspect the following:

•  Fuel injector (FP) (RP)
•  Spark plugs
•  High-tension leads
•  Ignition coil
•  Compression pressure
