Fail-Safe Chart

If any of the following DTCs are stored, the ECM enters fail-safe mode to allow the vehicle to be driven temporarily.

DTC	Component	Fail-Safe Operation	Fail-Safe Deactivation Condition
P0011	VVT system	Idle up (Control of combustion worsening) Stopping fuel-cut control	Pass condition detected
P0031, P0032 and P101D	Air fuel ratio sensor heater	ECM turns off air fuel ratio sensor heater.	Ignition switch off
P0037, P0038 and P102D	Heated oxygen sensor heater	ECM turns off heated oxygen sensor heater	Ignition switch off
P0102 and P0103	Mass air flow meter	ECM calculates ignition timing according to engine speed and throttle valve position.	Pass condition detected
P0112 and P0113	Intake air temperature sensor	ECM estimates intake air temperature to be 20°C (68°F).	Pass condition detected
P0115, P0117 and P0118	Engine coolant temperature sensor	ECM estimates engine coolant temperature to be 80°C (176°F).	Pass condition detected
P0120, P0121, P0122, P0123, P0220, P0222, P0223, P0604, P0606, P0607, P060A, P060B, P060D, P060E, P0657, P2102, P2103, P2111, P2112, P2118, P2119 and P2135	Electronic Throttle Control System (ETCS)	ECM cuts off throttle actuator current and throttle valve returned to 6.5° throttle position by return spring. ECM then adjusts engine output by controlling fuel injection (intermittent fuel-cut) and ignition timing in accordance with accelerator pedal opening angle, to allow vehicle to continue at minimal speed.*1	Pass condition detected and then ignition switch turned off
P0327 and P0328	Knock sensor	ECM sets ignition timing to maximum retard.	Ignition switch off
P0300, P0301, P0302, P0303 and P0304*2	Fuel injector Electronic Throttle Control System (ETCS)	When misfire occurs, fuel cut is performed for catalyst overheat malfunction prevention During normal load and normal engine speed (MIL is blinking) - Fuel cut is performed on malfunctioning cylinder During high load and high engine speed (MIL is blinking) - Throttle valve opening angle control is performed - All cylinder fuel cut or malfunction cylinder fuel cut	Pass condition detected and then ignition switch turned off
P0351 to P0354	Igniter	ECM cuts fuel.	Pass condition detected
P2120, P2121, P2122, P2123, P2125, P2127, P2128 and P2138	Accelerator pedal position sensor	Accelerator pedal position sensor has 2 sensor circuits: Main and Sub. If either circuit malfunctions, ECM limits the engine output. If both circuits malfunction, ECM regards accelerator pedal as being released. As a result, throttle valve is closed and engine idles.	Pass condition detected and then ignition switch turned off
P2237, P2238, P2239, P2252 and P2253	Air Fuel Ratio Sensor	Air fuel ratio feedback control is stopped. Current to the air fuel ratio sensor heater is cut.	Pass condition detected and then ignition switch turned off
P2432, P2433, P2440, P2442 and P2445	Secondary Air Injection System	Throttle valve opening angle control is performed.	Pass condition detected

NOTE:

*1: 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.
*2: Misfire related fail-safe operations occur when catalyst overheat malfunctions occur.
