Engine - Diagnostics: Pre-Check

DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM

Description
- When troubleshooting On-Board Diagnostic (OBD II) vehicles, the vehicle must be connected to the OBD II scan tool (in compliance with SAE J1978) or the hand-held tester. Various data output from the vehicle's ECM can then be read.
- OBD II regulations require that the vehicle's on-board computer illuminates the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) on the instrument panel when the computer detects a malfunction in: 1) the emission control system/components, or 2) the powertrain control components (which affect vehicle emissions), or 3) the computer. In addition, the applicable Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) prescribed by SAE J2012 are recorded in the ECM memory (See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART ).
  If the malfunction does not reoccur in 3 consecutive trips, the MIL goes off automatically but the DTCs remain recorded in the ECM memory.

- To check the DTC, connect the hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool to the Data Link Connector 3 (DLC3) of the vehicle. The hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool also enables you to erase the DTC and check the freeze frame data and various forms of engine data (See the instruction manual for the OBD II scan tool or the hand-held tester). The DTC includes SAE controlled codes and manufacturer controlled codes. SAE controlled codes must be set according to the SAE, while manufacturer controlled codes can be set by a manufacturer with certain restrictions (See the DTC chart on DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHART ).

- The diagnosis system operates in "normal mode" during normal vehicle use. In "normal mode", 2 trip detection logic^* is used to ensure accurate detection of malfunctions. A "check mode" is also available to technicians as an option. In "check mode", 1 trip detection logic is used for simulating malfunction symptoms and increasing the system's ability to detect malfunctions, including intermittent malfunctions (hand-held tester only) (See step 3).
- ^* 2 trip detection logic:
  When a malfunction is first detected, the malfunction is temporarily stored in the ECM memory. This is known as 1st trip detection. If the ignition switch is turned OFF and then ON again, and the same malfunction is detected again, the MIL will illuminate. This is known as 2nd trip detection.
- Freeze frame data:
  The freeze frame data records the engine conditions (fuel system, calculated load, engine coolant temperature, fuel trim, engine speed, vehicle speed, etc.) when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determining if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
Priorities for troubleshooting:

When multiple DTCs occur, find out the order in which the DTCs should be inspected by checking the component's DTC chart.

If no instructions are written in the DTC chart, check DTCs in the following order of priority:
1. DTCs other than fuel trim malfunction DTCs (P0171, P0172, P0174 and P0175) and misfire DTCs (P0300 to P0308).
2. Fuel trim malfunction DTCs (P0171, P0172, P0174 and P0175).
3. Misfire DTCs (P0300 to P0308).

Check the DLC3.

The vehicle's ECM uses the ISO 9141-2 for communication protocol. The terminal arrangement of the DLC3 complies with SAE J1962 and matches the ISO 9141-2 format.

HINT:

Connect the cable of the hand-held tester to the DLC3, turn the ignition switch ON and attempt to use the hand-held tester. If the screen displays UNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLE, a problem exists in the vehicle side or the tester side.

If the communication is normal when the tool is connected to another vehicle, inspect the DLC3 on the original vehicle.
If the communication is still impossible when the tool is connected to another vehicle, the problem is probably in the tool itself, so consult the Service Department listed in the tool's instruction manual.

Inspect the battery voltage.
Battery Voltage: 11 to 14 V

If voltage is below 11 V, recharge the battery before proceeding.
Check the MIL.
1. The MIL comes on when the ignition switch is turned ON and the engine is not running.
  HINT:
  
  If the MIL is not illuminated, troubleshoot the MIL circuit (See MIL CIRCUIT ).
2. When the engine is started, the MIL should not illuminate. If the lamp remains on, the diagnosis system has detected a malfunction or abnormality in the system.

DTC CHECK (Normal Mode)
NOTE:
- If no DTC appears in normal mode:
  On the OBD II scan tool or the hand-held tester check the pending fault code using the Continuous Test Results function (Mode 7 for SAE J1979).
- When the diagnosis system is changed from normal mode to check mode or vice-versa, all DTCs and freeze frame data recorded in normal mode will be erased. Before changing modes, always check and make a note of DTCs and freeze frame data.
1. Checking DTCs using the OBD II scan tool or hand-held tester.
  1. Connect the OBD II scan tool or the hand-held tester to DLC3.

O2S TEST RESULT

INTRODUCTION

The O2S TEST RESULT refers to the results of the engine control module (ECM) when it monitors the oxygen sensor (O2S), and it can be read using the hand-held tester or the generic OBD II scantool. Based on this, you can find the O2S's conditions.

The ECM monitors the O2S in the various items. You can read the monitor result (TEST DATA) of each monitor item using the O2S TEST RESULT. However, the output value of the TEST DATA is the latest "snapshot" value that is taken after monitoring and therefore is not dynamic.

In this repair manual, the description of the O2S TEST RESULT (for O2S related DTCs) are written in a table. This table consists of 5 items:

TEST ID (a code applied to each TEST DATA)
Description of TEST DATA
Conversion Factor (When Conversion Factor has a value written in the table, multiply the TEST DATA value appearing on the scan tool by the Conversion Factor value. The result will be the required value.)
Unit
Standard Value

If the TEST DATA value appearing on the scan tool is out of the standard value, the O2S is malfunctioning. If it is within the standard value, the O2S is functioning normally. However, if the value is on the borderline of the standard value, the O2S may malfunction very soon.

HOW TO READ O2S TEST RESULT USING HAND-HELD TESTER

Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
On the tester screen, select the following menus: DIAG-NOSIS/CARB OBDII/O2S TEST RESULT. A list of the O2S equipped on the vehicle will be displayed.

Fig 20: Identifying O2S Test Result Screen

Select the desired O2S and press ENTER. The following screen will appear.
Press HELP and H simultaneously. More information will appear.

Fig 21: Identifying Test Data Screen

Example:

The hand-held tester displays "17" as a value of the "TIME $81" (see Fig 21).
Find the Conversion Factor value of "TIME $81" in the O2S TEST RESULT chart below. 0.3906 is specified for $81 in this chart.
Multiply "17" in step (1) by 0.3906 (Conversion Factor) in the step (2).
17 x 0.3906 = 6.6%
If the answer is within the standard value, the "TIME $81" can be confirmed to be normal.

CHECKING MONITOR STATUS
HINT:

"MONITOR RESULT" indicates normal or malfunction of each component and system when judgment has done.
1. HOW TO READ DATA (using the hand-held tester)
  1. Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
  2. Enter the following menus:
    "MONITOR RESULT" from "DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / MONITOR INFO / MONITOR RESULT" the Test ID will appear at the beginning of each line, following by INCMP, PASS or FAIL.
    
    HINT:
    - INCMP: Stands for "incomplete" the diagnosis is incomplete.
    - PASS: The component or system is operating normally.
    - FAIL: A malfunction has been detected.

    HINT:
    - Monitor test results can be viewed in the MONITOR RESULT screen.
    - Monitor test results indicate the latest malfunction judgement result of this diagnostic.
    - TEST VALUE indicates the detection parameter value (Example: P0128 Thermostat Malfunction = Engine coolant temperature) at the time of malfunction (or normal) judgement is done.
    - TEST LIMIT indicates a threshold of malfunction judgement (Example: P0128 Thermostat Malfunction = 75°C (167°F)).
    - When the monitor runs, the monitored Parameter's VALUE is recorded. The value is then compared to the TEST LIMIT to determine if the result is PASS or FAIL.
    - By comparing the Parameter VALUE to the TEST LIMIT, it is possible to determine the degree of failure.
    - In rare cases, the monitor may have passed even with a DTC set and MIL illuminated. The monitor may have failed on a previous trip, and then passed on the most recent trip. This would indicated an intermittent problem may be the cause of the DTC.
