DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR WORKFLOW

Trouble Diagnosis Introduction

INFOID:0000000001537593

INTRODUCTION

The engine has an ECM to control major systems such as fuel con-
trol, ignition control, idle air control system, etc. The ECM accepts
input signals from sensors and instantly drives actuators. It is essen-
tial that both input and output signals are proper and stable. At the
same time, it is important that there are no malfunctions such as vac-
uum leaks, fouled spark plugs, or other malfunctions with the engine.

It is much more difficult to diagnose an incident that occurs intermit-
tently rather than continuously. Most intermittent incidents are
caused by poor electric connections or improper wiring. In this case,
careful checking of suspected circuits may help prevent the replace-
ment of good parts.

A visual check only may not find the cause of the incidents. A road
test with CONSULT-III (or GST) or a circuit tester connected should
be performed. Follow the Work Flow on "WORK FLOW" .
Before undertaking actual checks, take a few minutes to talk with a
customer who approaches with a driveability complaint. The cus-
tomer can supply good information about such incidents, especially
intermittent ones. Find out what symptoms are present and under
what conditions they occur. A Diagnostic Worksheet like the example
on "Worksheet Sample" should be used.
Start your diagnosis by looking for conventional malfunctions first.
This will help troubleshoot driveability malfunctions on an electroni-
cally controlled engine vehicle.

CHECK DTC*

Check DTC*

Perform the following procedure if DTC*

is displayed.

Record DTC*

and freeze frame data*

. (Print them out with CONSULT-III or GST.)

Erase DTC*

. (Refer to

EC-919, "DTC Index"

Study the relationship between the cause detected by DTC*

and the symptom described by the cus-

tomer. (Symptom Matrix Chart is useful. Refer to

EC-937, "Symptom Matrix Chart"

Check related service bulletins for information.

Is any symptom described and any DTC detected?

Symptom is described, DTC*

is displayed>>GO TO 3.

Symptom is described, DTC*

is not displayed>>GO TO 4.

Symptom is not described, DTC*

is displayed>>GO TO 5.

CONFIRM THE SYMPTOM

Try to confirm the symptom described by the customer (except MIL ON).
DIAGNOSIS WORK SHEET is useful to verify the incident.
Connect CONSULT-III to the vehicle and check real time diagnosis results.
Verify relation between the symptom and the condition when the symptom is detected.

>> GO TO 5.

CONFIRM THE SYMPTOM

Try to confirm the symptom described by the customer.
DIAGNOSIS WORK SHEET is useful to verify the incident.
Connect CONSULT-III to the vehicle and check real time diagnosis results.
Verify relation between the symptom and the condition when the symptom is detected.

>> GO TO 6.

PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

Perform DTC Confirmation Procedure for the displayed DTC*

, and then make sure that DTC*

is detected

again.
If two or more DTCs*

are detected, refer to

EC-918, "DTC Inspection Priority Chart"

and determine trouble

diagnosis order.
NOTE:
• Freeze frame data*

is useful if the DTC*

is not detected.

• Perform Overall Function Check if DTC Confirmation Procedure is not included on Service Manual. This

simplified check procedure is an effective alternative though DTC*

cannot be detected during this check.

If the result of Overall Function Check is NG, it is the same as the detection of DTC*

by DTC Confirmation

Procedure.

Is DTC*

detected?

Yes

PERFORM SPEC IN DATA MONITOR MODE

With CONSULT-III

Make sure that “MAS A/F SE-B1”, “B/FUEL SCHDL”, and “A/F ALPHA-B1”, “A/F ALPHA-B2” are within the SP
value using CONSULT-III “SPEC” in “DATA MONITOR” mode. Refer to

DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART BY DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Inspect according to Diagnostic Procedure of the system.
NOTE:
The Diagnostic Procedure in EC section described based on open circuit inspection. A short circuit inspection
is also required for the circuit check in the Diagnostic Procedure. For details, refer to Circuit Inspection in

GI-

54, "Circuit Inspection"

Is malfunctioning part detected?

Yes

>> GO TO 11.

>> Monitor input data from related sensors or check voltage of related ECM terminals using CON-

SULT-III. Refer to

ence Value in Data Monitor Mode"

ment.

Check DTC. If DTC is displayed, erase it, refer to

FINAL CHECK

When DTC was detected in step 2, perform DTC Confirmation Procedure or Overall Function Check again,
and then make sure that the malfunction have been repaired securely.
When symptom was described from the customer, refer to confirmed symptom in step 3 or 4, and make sure
that the symptom is not detected.

Before returning the vehicle to the customer, make sure to erase unnecessary DTC*

in ECM

and TCM (Transmission Control Module). (Refer to

EC-919, "DTC Index"

and

TM-33, "OBD-

II Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)"

If the completion of SRT is needed, drive vehicle under the specific driving pattern. Refer to

EC-919, "DTC Index"

DIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEET

Description

DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR WORKFLOW

EC-491

< BASIC INSPECTION >

[VK56DE]

There are many operating conditions that lead to the malfunction of
engine components. A good grasp of such conditions can make trou-
bleshooting faster and more accurate.
In general, each customer feels differently about a incident. It is
important to fully understand the symptoms or conditions for a cus-
tomer complaint.
Utilize a diagnostic worksheet like the one on the next page in order
to organize all the information for troubleshooting.
Some conditions may cause the MIL to come on steady or blink and
DTC to be detected. Examples:
• Vehicle ran out of fuel, which caused the engine to misfire.
• Fuel filler cap was left off or incorrectly screwed on, allowing fuel to

evaporate into the atmosphere.
