PID/DATA Monitor Inspection

  1. Verify that there is no engine oil leakage.
    • If there is any malfunction, repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results.
  2. Inspect the engine oil level. (See ENGINE OIL LEVEL SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-G (WITH CYLINDER DEACTIVATION)] .)
  3. Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
  4. Switch the ignition ON (engine off).
  5. Access the PCM PID/DATA monitor item [ENG_OIL_LVL] using the M-MDS. (Refer to [PID/DATA MONITOR INSPECTION ] in the service information.)
  6. Verify that the PID [ENG_OIL_LVL] value and the engine oil amount measured using the dipstick are same.
    ENGINE OIL LEVEL SENSOR OUTPUT VALUE REFERENCE

    PID [ENG_OIL_LVL] value Measurable upper limit value of engine oil level sensor
    Dipstick level: MIN Dipstick level: MAX
    Approx. 55 mm {2.2 in} Outside of measurable range

    NOTE:
    • Due to the structure of the engine oil level sensor, a value exceeding the measurable upper limit value may be detected. If the oil level gauge is the upper limit position or more and the engine oil level sensor output value exceeds the measurable upper limit value, adjust the engine oil level near the middle of the lower and upper limit positions on the dipstick, and then verify the output value of the engine oil level sensor (PID: ENG_OIL_LVL) again.
