P059F ACTIVE GRILLE SHUTTER

DTC Logic

INFOID:0000000009509489

DTC DETECTION LOGIC

Active grille shutter normally stops within zone   which is defined by
zone  

(90

°±20°).

If the active grille shutter stops within zone   stuck error is detected,
and if the active grille shutter stops at position beyond zone   over-

run error is detected.

NOTE:

If DTC P059F displayed with DTC UXXXX, P0116, P0117, P0118, P0125, P0196, P0197, P0198, P0500,

P0607, or P1720 first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC UXXXX, P0116, P0117, P0118, P0125,

P0196, P0197, P0198, P0500, P0607, or P1720. Refer to 

EC-86, "DTC Index"

.

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
