MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MPI) <4A9>

13A-230

NOTE: In case of Past malfunction, M.U.T.-III CAN 

bus diagnosis cannot detect the failure even if 
there is malfunction in CAN bus, so that check 
CAN busline in the same way as Intermittent mal-
function (Refer to GROUP 00 

 How to Use Trou-

bleshooting/Inspection Service Points 

 How to 

Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions 

P.00-13

). 

The diagnosis codes being output to each ECU 
with CAN communication can narrow down the 
most suspected area (Refer to GROUP 54D 

 

Diagnosis 

 CAN Bus Diagnosis Table 

P.54D-13

).

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Failed harness and connector in CAN busline

• Failed A/C-ECU

• Failed engine-ECU <M/T> or engine-CVT-ECU 

<CVT>

DIAGNOSIS

STEP 1. M.U.T.-III CAN bus diagnosis

• Using M.U.T.-III, perform CAN busline diagnosis.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : 

Go to Step 2 .

NO : 

Correct CAN busline (Refer to GROUP 54D 
− Diagnosis − CAN Bus Diagnosis Table 

P.54D-13

), and then go to Step 6 .

STEP 2. M.U.T.-III other system diagnosis code

• Confirm whether the diagnosis code is output 

from A/C-ECU.

Q: Is the diagnosis code set?

YES : 

Perform the troubleshooting of A/C-ECU 

(Refer to GROUP 55 

− Troubleshooting − 

Diagnostic Table Code Chart 

P.55A-5

).

NO : 

Go to Step 3 .

STEP 3. M.U.T.-III other system diagnosis codes
Confirm whether Diagnosis Code U1110 A/C-ECU 
time-out is output from the following ECU having 
CAN communication with A/C-ECU.

• ETACS-ECU

Q: Is the diagnosis code set?

YES : 

Go to Step 4 .

NO : 

Go to Step 5 .

STEP 4. M.U.T.-III diagnosis code

• Reconfirm whether the diagnosis code is output 

from engine-ECU <M/T> or engine-CVT-ECU 
<CVT>.

1. Erase the diagnosis code being output.
2. Ignition switch: LOCK (OFF) to ON
3. Confirm whether the diagnosis code is output.

Q: Is the diagnosis code set?

YES : 

Replace A/C-ECU, then go to Step 6 . 

NO : 

Intermittent malfunction in CAN busline 
between engine-ECU <M/T> or 
engine-CVT-ECU <CVT> and A/C-ECU 
(Refer to GROUP 00 

− How to Use 

Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points 

− 

How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions 

P.00-13

). 

STEP 5. M.U.T.-III diagnosis code

• Reconfirm whether the diagnosis code is output 

from engine-ECU <M/T> or engine-CVT-ECU 
<CVT>.

1. Erase the diagnosis code being output.
2. Ignition switch: LOCK (OFF) to ON
3. Confirm whether the diagnosis code is output.

Q: Is the diagnosis code set?

YES : 

Replace engine-ECU <M/T> or 

engine-CVT-ECU <CVT>, go to Step 6 .

NO : 

Intermittent malfunction in CAN busline 
between engine-ECU <M/T> or 
engine-CVT-ECU <CVT> and A/C-ECU 
(Refer to GROUP 00 

− How to Use 

Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points 

− 

How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions 

P.00-13

).

STEP 6. M.U.T.-III diagnosis code

• Reconfirm whether the diagnosis code is output 

from engine-ECU <M/T> or engine-CVT-ECU 
<CVT>.

1. Erase the diagnosis code being output.
2. Ignition switch: LOCK (OFF) to ON
3. Confirm whether the diagnosis code is output.

Q: Is the diagnosis code set?

YES : 

Go to Step 1 .

NO : 

Check end.

INSPECTION CHART FOR TROUBLE SYMPTOMS

M1131151501945

Items

Trouble symptom

Inspection 
procedure 
No.

Communication 
with M.U.T.-III is 
impossible

Communication with engine-ECU <M/T> or engine-CVT-ECU <CVT> 
only is not possible

1

Engine warning 
lamp

The engine warning lamp does not illuminate right after the ignition switch 
is turned the ON position

2

The engine warning lamp remains illuminating and never goes out

3

Starting

Starting impossible
(No initial combustion) <M/T>

The starter is impossible to operate. 4

Starting impossible
(No initial combustion) <CVT>

The starter is impossible to operate. 5

Starting impossible
(Starter operative but no initial 
combustion)

The starter is operative and cranks 
the engine, but none of initial 
combustion is in the cylinders and 
the engine is not started.

6

Starting impossible
(Initial combustion but no complete 
combustion)

The initial combustion occurs, but 
the engine stalls soon due to the 
incomplete combustion.

7

Improper starting
 (Long time to start)

It is long cranking to start the engine.

Improper idling

Unstable idling 
(Rough idling, hunting)

The engine speed is not constant 
and changeable during the idling. 
Usually, the judgment can be based 
on the movement of the tachometer 
pointer, also on the vibration 
transmitted to the steering wheel, sift 
lever, vehicle body and so on.

8

Improper idling speed

The proper idling speed is not 
satisfied.

Engine stalled during idling
 (Die out)

The engine stalls during the idling in 
no relation to the vehicle movement.

Engine stalls

The engine stalls when starting the 
car
 (Pass out)

The engine stalls during the 
operation, or when the accelerator 
pedal is depressed from the idling.

9

The engine stalls when 
decelerating

The engine stalls at the deceleration. 10

Driving

Engine does not revolve up

The engine speed is not higher when 
the accelerator pedal is depressed.

11

Hesitation, sag

The response of vehicle speed 
(engine speed) is delayed when the 
accelerator pedal is depressed, or 
the vehicle speed (engine speed) is 
temporarily dropped during the 
acceleration. These phenomena are 
called "hesitation" and the serious 
hesitation is called "sag".

12

Poor acceleration

The engine cannot obtain the 
acceleration corresponding to the 
degree of throttle opening although 
the engine is smooth at the constant 
speed.

Stumble

The engine speed increase is 
delayed when the accelerator pedal 
is initially depressed at the starting.

Surge

The vehicle body is repeated to 
vibrate jollity in the forward and 
backward directions at the constant 
speed or acceleration.

The feeling of impact or vibration 
when accelerating

The large impact feeling occurs at 
the acceleration.

13

The feeling of impact or vibration 
when decelerating

The large impact feeling occurs at 
the deceleration.

14

Knocking

Sharp sound like a hammer striking 
on the cylinder walls during the 
driving can be heard and wrongly 
affects the driving.

15

Ignition timing offset

The basic ignition timing is deviated 
from the datum value.

16

Stopping

Run on (Dieseling)

The engine continues to run after the 
ignition switch is in "LOCK " (OFF) 
position.

17

Exhaust gas

Odor, white smoke, black smoke, 
high-concentration CO/HC during 
idling

The exhaust gas is extremely rank 
odor, white smoke or black smoke. 
The concentration of CO & HC is 
high during the idling.

18

Charging

PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE

CAUTION

If the ignition switch is turned to the "ON" position with a connector or other electrical connections 
disconnected during troubleshooting of a system, a diagnosis code may be set for other systems. 
After finishing troubleshooting, check diagnosis codes for all systems, and if any codes have been 
set, erase these codes.

Cooling 
performance

Overheating

The temperature of engine cooling 
water is extremely high.
