DTC SET CONDITIONS

Logic Flow Chart

Check Conditions

• Engine speed is between 594 r/min and 1,500 

r/min.

• Engine coolant temperature is between 20° C 

(68° F) and 88° C (190° F).

• Exhaust engine oil control valve is "OFF".
• 1 second has elapsed after the above mentions 

have been met.

Judgment Criterion

• The close timing of the exhaust valve is faster 

than −

 7.7 degrees (ATDC) for 10 seconds.

or

• The close timing of the exhaust valve is slower 

than 5.4 degrees (ATDC) for 10 seconds.

.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most 
likely causes for this code to be set are:)

• Timing chain in out of place.
• Loose timing chain.
• Exhaust variable valve timing sprocket tooth 

coming off.

• ECM failed.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools

• MB991709: Test Harness
• MB992110: Power Plant ECU Check Harness

STEP 1. Using the oscilloscope, measure output wave 
pattern at crankshaft position sensor and exhaust 
camshaft position sensor.
(1) Disconnect the crankshaft position sensor connector B-13 

and connect the test harness special tool (MB991709) 
between the separated connectors.

(2) Connect the oscilloscope probe to the crankshaft position 

sensor side connector terminal No. 3.

(3) Disconnect the exhaust camshaft position sensor connector 

B-05, and connect test harness special tool (MB991709) 
between the separated connectors.

(4) Connect the oscilloscope probe to the exhaust camshaft 

position sensor side connector terminal No. 3.
NOTE: When measuring with the ECM side connector, dis-
connect all ECM connectors. Connect the check harness 
special tool (MB992110) between the separated connec-
tors. Then connect the oscilloscope probe to the check har-
ness connector terminal No. 8 (crankshaft position sensor) 
and terminal No. 7 (exhaust camshaft position sensor).

(5) Start the engine and run at idle.

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI)

13A-83

(6) Check the waveform.

• The waveform should show a pattern similar to the illus-

tration.

(7) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the waveform normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Go to Step 3.

STEP 2. Check the trouble symptoms.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to 

Diagnostic Function − OBD-II Drive Cycle − Pattern 20 

P.13A-9

.

(2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P0017 set?

YES : Replace the ECM. When the ECM is replaced, 

register the ID code. Refer to GROUP 42B, ID Code 
Registration Necessity Judgment Table <Vehicles 
with KOS> 

P.42B-11

 or GROUP 42C, ID Codes 

Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles with WCM> 

P.42C-9

. Then go to Step 4.

NO :  It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. 

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use Troubleshooting/ 
Inspection Service Points − How to Cope with 

Intermittent Malfunctions 

P.00-15

.

STEP 3. Check timing mark on the timing chain.
Q: Is timing chain in out of place?

YES : Repair it. Then go to Step 4.
NO :  Check the following items, and repair or replace the 

defective items. 

a. Check the timing chain loose.
b. Check the exhaust variable valve timing 

sprocket tooth coming off.

Then go to Step 4.

STEP 4. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to 

Diagnostic Function − OBD-II Drive Cycle − Pattern 20 

P.13A-9

.

(2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P0017 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO :  The inspection is complete.
