CHECK FUEL INJECTOR

1.

Confirm that the engine is cooled down and there are no fire hazards near the vehicle.

2.

Turn ignition switch OFF.

3.

Reconnect all harness connectors disconnected.

4.

Disconnect all fuel injector harness connectors.

5.

Remove fuel injector gallery assembly. Refer to 

EM-45

.

Keep fuel hose and all fuel injectors connected to fuel injector gallery.

6.

For DTC P0171, reconnect fuel injector harness connectors on bank 1.
For DTC P0174, reconnect fuel injector harness connectors on bank 2.

7.

Disconnect all ignition coil harness connectors.

8.

Prepare pans or saucers under each fuel injector.

9.

Crank engine for about 3 seconds.
For DTC P0171, make sure that fuel sprays out from fuel injec-
tors on bank 1.
For DTC P0174, make sure that fuel sprays out from fuel injec-
tors on bank 2.

OK or NG

OK

>> GO TO 11.

NG

>> Replace fuel injectors from which fuel does not spray

out. Always replace O-ring with new ones.

11.

CHECK INTERMITTENT INCIDENT

Refer to 

EC-139

.

>> INSPECTION END

Fuel should be sprayed evenly for each fuel injector.

DTC P0172, P0175 FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM FUNCTION

DTC P0172, P0175 FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM FUNCTION

On Board Diagnosis Logic

INFOID:0000000001326105

With the Air-Fuel Mixture Ratio Self-Learning Control, the actual mixture ratio can be brought closely to the
theoretical mixture ratio based on the mixture ratio feedback signal from the air fuel ratio (A/F) sensor 1. The
ECM calculates the necessary compensation to correct the offset between the actual and the theoretical
ratios.
In case the amount of the compensation value is extremely large (the actual mixture ratio is too rich.), the
ECM judges the condition as the fuel injection system malfunction and lights up the MIL (2 trip detection logic).

DTC Confirmation Procedure

INFOID:0000000001609264

NOTE:
If DTC Confirmation Procedure has been previously conducted, always turn ignition switch OFF and wait at
least 10 seconds before conducting the next test.

 WITH CONSULT-III

1.

Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.

2.

Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

3.

Turn ignition switch ON and select “SELF-LEARNING CONT” in “WORK SUPPORT” mode with CON-
SULT-III.

4.

Clear the self-learning control coefficient by touching “CLEAR”.

5.

Start engine.
If it is difficult to start engine, the fuel injection system has a malfunction.
Perform the following procedure is advised.

a.

Crank engine while depressing accelerator pedal.

b.

If engine starts, go to .
If engine does not start, remove ignition plugs and check for fouling, etc.

6.

Keep engine at idle for at least 10 minutes.

7.

Check 1st trip DTC.

8.

If 1st trip DTC is detected, go to 

EC-289, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

If 1st trip DTC is not detected, performing the following procedure is advised.

a.

Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

b.

Start engine and drive the vehicle under the similar conditions to (1st trip) Freeze Frame Data for 10 min-
utes. Refer to the table below.
Hold the accelerator pedal as steady as possible.

The similar conditions to (1st trip) Freeze Frame Data means the vehicle operation that the following con-
ditions should be satisfied at the same time.
