Judgment Value

MALFUNCTION CRITERIA AND THRESHOLD VALUE REFERENCE

Malfunction Criteria Threshold Value
Number of times that the difference between the Max. fuel level and Min. fuel level every 60 seconds is 2 (0.53 US gal, 0.44 Imp gal) or more (with enable condition established) ≥ 16 times
Maximum - Minimum tank pressure (with enable condition completed) < 0.05 kPa (0.375 mmHg, 0.01 inHg)
Maximum - Minimum fuel temperature (with enable condition completed) ≥ 7°C(12.6°F)

If the maximum value - minimum value for the fuel level every seconds is less than 2 liters, extend 60 seconds and make judgment with the maximum and minimum values for the fuel level in 120 seconds. If a difference does not appear though the time was extended 60 seconds, extend the time (180,240,300 seconds) and continue the judgment. If the maximum value - minimum value for the fuel level is 2 or more, the diagnosis counter counts up.

Time Needed for Diagnosis:  1 minute x 16 times or more

Malfunction Indicator Light Illumination:  Illuminates when malfunction occurs in 2 continuous driving cycles.
