Fail-Safe Chart
HINT:
If any of the following codes are recorded, the ECM enters the fail-safe mode.
FAIL-SAFE CHART
| DTC | Item | Fail-safe Operation | Fail-safe Deactivation Conditions |
|---|---|---|---|
| P0031, P0032, P0051 and P0052 | Air Fuel Ratio (A/F) Sensor Heater | ECM turn off A/F Sensor heater. | Ignition switch OFF |
| P0037, P0038, P0057 and P0058 | Heated Oxygen (HO2) Sensor Heater | ECM turn off HO2 Sensor heater. | Ignition switch OFF |
| P0100, P0102 and P0103 | Mass Air Flow (MAF) Meter | The ignition timing is calculated from engine RPM and throttle position. | "Pass" condition detected |
| P0110, P0112 and P0113 | Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor | The ECM detects that IAT is 20°C (68°F). | "Pass" condition detected |
| P0115, P0117 and P0118 | Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor | The ECM detects that ECT is 80°C (176°F). | "Pass" condition detected |
| P0120, P0121, P0122, P0123, P0220, P0222, P0223, P2102, P2103, P2111, P2112, P2118, P2119 and P2135 | Electronic Throttle Control System (ETCS) | The ECM cuts off the throttle actuator current and the throttle valve returns to 7° throttle position by the return spring. The ECM then adjusts the engine output by controlling the fuel injection (intermittent fuel-cut) and ignition timing in accordance with the accelerator pedal opening angle to continue at a minimal speed*. | "Pass" condition is detected and then the ignition switch is turned OFF. |
| P0327, P0328, P0332 and P0333 | Knock Sensor | The ECM sets the ignition timing to the maximum retard position. | Ignition switch OFF |
| P0351 to P0358 | Igniter | Fuel-cut | "Pass" condition detected. |
| P2120, P2121, P2122, P2123, P2125, P2127, P2128 and P2138 | Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) Sensor | The APP sensor has 2 sensor elements (main and sub). If either of the elements malfunctions, the ECM controls the engine with other elements. If both of the elements malfunction, ECM regards accelerator pedal as being released. As a result, throttle valve is closed and engine idles. | "Pass" condition is detected and the ignition switch is turned OFF |
| P2440 and P1441 and/or P1444 | Air Injection (Al) system | Restrict the throttle opening angle: Ga is 30 g/sec. or less | "Pass" condition detected |
| P1441 and P1444 | Air Injection (Al) system | Restrict the throttle opening angle: Ga is 50 g/sec. or less | "Pass" condition detected |
| P1441, P1444 | Air Injection (Al) system | Restrict the throttle opening angle: Ga is 100 g/sec. or less | "Pass" condition detected |
| P2430, P2431, P2432, P2433 | Pressure Sensor | Restrict the throttle opening angle: Ga is 50 g/sec. or less | "Pass" condition detected |
| HINT: *: The vehicle can be driven slowly when the accelerator pedal is depressed firmly and slowly. If the accelerator pedal is depressed quickly, the vehicle may speed up and slow down erratically. |
