DTC RELATED ITEM

Description

When a DTC is detected, ECM executes a mode (in the Fail-safe mode) applicable to the DTC. The fail-safe
mode has the preset traveling control mode (accelerator angle variation and engine output limit) and device fix
mode.

Malfunction

Engine speed will not rise 
more than 2,500 rpm due 
to the fuel cut

When there is an open circuit on MIL circuit, the ECM cannot warn the 
driver by lighting up MIL when there is malfunction on engine control 
system.
Therefore, when electrical controlled throttle and part of ECM related 
diagnoses are continuously detected as NG for 5 trips, ECM warns the 
driver that engine control system malfunctions and MIL circuit is open 
by means of operating fail safe function.
The fail safe function also operates when above diagnoses except MIL 
circuit are detected and demands the driver to repair the malfunction.

Fail safe mode

Vehicle behavior

Traveling con-
trol mode

Accelerator an-
gle variation 
control

ECM controls the accelerator pedal depression speed to make it slower than actual speed. This 
causes a drop in accelerating performance and encourages the driver to repair malfunction.
NOTE:
ECM does not control the accelerator pedal releasing speed.

Engine output 
control

ECM reduces the engine output, according to the rise in engine speed. This reduces the vehicle 
speed to encourage the driver to repair malfunction.

Device fix mode

• This mode fixes the IVT control solenoid valve and the EVT control solenoid valve in the refer-

ence position.

• The intake manifold runner control valve motor is turned OFF (intake manifold runner control 

valve opens).

—

The ECM controls the electric throttle control actuator in reg-
ulating the throttle opening in order for the idle position to be 
within +10 degrees.
The ECM regulates the opening speed of the throttle valve to 
be slower than the normal condition.
So, the acceleration will be poor.
