DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION



ENGINE WARNING LAMP (CHECK ENGINE LAMP)



When the abnormal condition occurs with respect to the items of Multipoint Fuel Injection (MPI) system shown in the table, the engine warning lamp is illuminated. When the lamp remains illuminated after the engine start, or when the lamp is illuminated while the engine is running, check the diagnosis code output. There are two methods for checking the indicator lamp burn out: When the ignition switch is in ON position, the indicator lamp is illuminated, and then extinguished few seconds later. When the ignition switch is in ON position and the engine starts, the indicator lamp is extinguished.

note
  • If the electronic-controlled throttle valve system is stopped due to the fail-safe function, the engine warning lamp should blink.
  • If the engine warning lamp illuminates because of a malfunction of the engine-ECU, communication between M.U.T.-III and the engine-ECU is impossible. In this case, the diagnosis code cannot be read.
  • After the engine-ECU has detected a malfunction, the engine warning lamp illuminates when the engine is next turned on and the same malfunction is re-detected.However, for items marked with a "*" in the diagnosis code number column, the engine warning lamp illuminates only on the first detection of the malfunction.
  • Even if the malfunction is not detected when the engine-ECU monitors the malfunction three consecutive times* after the engine warning lamp illuminates, turn off the engine warning lamp when the engine starts next time.
    *: In this case, "one time" in monitoring the malfunction means the period from the time of the current engine start to the time of the next engine start. "One time" in monitoring the misfire or the fuel system malfunction means the time when the operating conditions (such as the engine speed or the engine coolant temperature) becomes similar operating conditions of the first detected malfunction.

AS&G OFF INDICATOR LAMP <Vehicles with AS&G system>



When depressing the Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) OFF switch for the specified time, the AS&G mode is turned OFF and the AS&G OFF indicator lamp is lit. When the following items in the table, related to the Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system, are abnormal, the AS&G OFF indicator lamp blinks. When the AS&G OFF indicator lamp continues to blink, check the output of the diagnosis code. After the ignition switch is turned ON, light the AS&G OFF indicator lamp for several seconds to confirm whether the lamp is normally operated.

AS&G INDICATOR LAMP <Vehicles with AS&G system>



When the specified conditions are satisfied during the engine operation, the engine-ECU stops the engine. At that time, the AS&G indicator lamp is lit. If the following items in the table, related to the Auto Stop & Go (AS&G) system, are applied, the AS&G indicator lamp blinks. When the AS&G indicator lamp continues to blink, carry out the check according to the applied item. After the ignition switch is turned ON, light the AS&G indicator lamp for several seconds to confirm whether the lamp is normally operated.

Confirm the shift lever is in the neutral position.

METHOD OF READING AND ERASING DIAGNOSIS CODES


Refer to , GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points - Diagnosis Function.

INSPECTION USING M.U.T.-III DATA LIST AND ACTUATOR TESTING


1.Carry out inspection by means of the data list and the actuator test function, if there is an abnormality, check and repair the chassis harness and components.
2.After repairing, re-check using the M.U.T.-III and check that the abnormal input and output have returned to normal as a result of the repairs.
3.Erase the diagnosis code memory.
4.Remove the M.U.T.-III, and then start the engine again and carry out a road test to confirm that the problem has disappeared.

FREEZE FRAME DATA


When determining the malfunction and storing the diagnosis code, the engine-ECU stores the sensor input status, the control status and so on for each of the diagnosis codes at the time of malfunction detection. This function’s data are called "Freeze Frame" data.
The each diagnosis code has two blocks for storing the freeze frame data. The block 1 and 2 store the same data at the first detection. After the engine-ECU judges the first detected malfunction to have been corrected by change in some circumstances, the malfunction is detected again, whose data the block 2 can store. Whenever this is repeated again, the freeze frame data are updated and stored in the block 2.
By analyzing these freeze frame data with the M.U.T.-III, an effective troubleshooting can be performed.
The display items of freeze frame data are shown below.

DRIVE CYCLE


The following three drive cycle patterns are performed on the diagnosis codes monitored during the vehicle driving. The vehicle driving requires the patterns to identify the fault. In other words, doing such a drive allows to regenerate any kind of trouble which involves illuminating the engine warming lamp (check engine lamp) and to verify the repair procedure has eliminated the trouble [the engine warming lamp (check engine lamp) is no longer illuminated].
caution Two technicians should always be in the vehicle when carrying out a test drive.
note Check that the diagnosis code is not output before traveling in the drive cycle pattern. Erase the diagnosis code if it has been output.
