No.5 Engine Stalls-After Start/At Idle: Notes

DESCRIPTION & POSSIBLE CAUSE

5	ENGINE STALLS-AFTER START/AT IDLE
DESCRIPTION	Engine stops unexpectedly at idle, after start, or both.
POSSIBLE CAUSE	Engine overheating PCM DTC is stored Erratic signal to PCM APP sensor or related circuit malfunction ECT sensor No.1 or related circuit malfunction MAF sensor or related circuit malfunction MAP sensor or related circuit malfunction A/F sensor or related circuit malfunction HO2S or related circuit malfunction Improper air/fuel mixture ratio control Improper operation of A/C system Improper operation of drive-by-wire control system Purge solenoid valve malfunction Open circuit in MAF sensor ground circuit Intermittent open circuit in PCM ground circuit Poor fuel quality Air leakage from intake-air system Intake-air system restriction Electrical connector disconnected No battery power supply to PCM or poor ground Fuel leakage Vacuum leakage Erratic signal from CMP sensor Loose installation Damaged trigger wheel (intake camshaft and/or exhaust camshaft) Open or short circuit in related wiring harness No signal from CKP sensor Loose installation Damaged trigger wheel (crankshaft pulley) Open or short circuit in related wiring harness Inadequate fuel pressure (high or low pressure side) Open or short circuit in the fuel pump (low-side) body or related wiring harness Fuel pressure sensor or related circuit malfunction Fuel pump (low-side) body mechanical malfunction High pressure fuel pump malfunction Spill valve control solenoid valve control circuit malfunction (damage to driver in PCM caused by short circuit to ground system) Spill valve control solenoid valve malfunction (built-into high pressure fuel pump) Relief valve (built-into high pressure fuel pump) malfunction Fuel line restriction Fuel filter clogged Fuel injector malfunction Incorrect fuel injection timing Improper operation of electric variable valve timing control system (PCM DTC is stored). Improper operation of hydraulic variable valve timing control system Ignition system malfunction Ignition coil malfunction Low engine compression Improper intake valve timing Improper exhaust valve timing Exhaust system and/or TWC restricted or clogged PCV valve malfunction Injector driver (built-into PCM) malfunction WARNING: The following troubleshooting flow chart contains the fuel system diagnosis and repair procedures. Read the following warnings before performing the fuel system services: Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always keep sparks and flames away from fuel. Fuel line spills and leakage are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injury or death and damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always complete "BEFORE SERVICE PRECAUTION" and "AFTER SERVICE PRECAUTION" described in this manual. (See BEFORE SERVICE PRECAUTION ). (See AFTER SERVICE PRECAUTION ). CAUTION: Disconnecting/connecting the quick release connector without cleaning it may possibly cause damage to the fuel pipe and quick release connector. Always clean the quick release connector joint area before disconnecting/connecting, and make sure that it is free of foreign material.

CAUTION:

Verify the malfunction symptom according to not only the PID value but also the symptom troubleshooting.
