Isuzu KB P190. Manual - part 317

6E-234 Engine Control System (4JH1)

DTC P1690 (Symptom Code 4) (Flash Code 77)

Circuit Description
The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) is located on the
instrument panel cluster (IPC). The battery voltage is
supplied to the MIL. The engine control module (ECM)
turns the MIL ON by grounding the MIL control circuit.
After a fixed time passes, the ECM turns OFF the MIL
with the ignition ON and the engine OFF. The MIL has
the following functions:

• The MIL informs the driver that a malfunction has

occurred and the vehicle should be taken in for
service as soon as possible.

• The MIL illuminates during a bulb test and a

system test.

• A DTC will be stored if a MIL is requested by the

ECM.

If the ECM detects an open circuit or short circuit on the
MIL control circuit, this DTC will set.
Condition for Running the DTC

• The ignition switch is ON.

Condition for Setting the DTC

• The ECM detects a low voltage condition on the

MIL control circuit for longer than 3 seconds when
the MIL is commanded OFF.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

• The ECM does not illuminates the MIL when the

diagnostic runs and fails.

Condition for Clearing the DTC

• A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive driving

cycles without a fault. Or clear with the scan tool.

Diagnostic Aids

• If an intermittent condition is suspected, refer to

Intermittent Conditions in this section.
