Scheme 50: System Description

The PGM-FI system on this model is a sequential multiport fuel injection system.

Description

The low fuel indicator light turns on when the fuel level is low.

The low fuel indicator light blinks when a problem is detected with the fuel tank pressure sensor or the fuel tank temperature sensor.

Note. If a fuel leak is detected, the fuel pressure regulator shut-off solenoid valve/fuel tank internal solenoid valve will not reopen until the PCM is reset.

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTC) LIST

By controlling the air/fuel ratio with a Primary HO2S (Sensor 1) and a Secondary HO2S (Sensor 2), the deterioration of the Primary HO2S (Sensor 1) can be evaluated by its feedback period. When the feedback period of the HO2S exceeds a certain value during stable driving conditions, the sensor will be judged as deteriorated.

When deterioration has been detected during two consecutive trips, the MIL comes on and DTC P0133 will be stored.

Note. If DTC P0131, P0132 and/or P0135 are stored at the same time as DTC P0133, troubleshoot those DTCs first, then troubleshoot DTC P0133.

By monitoring the Long Term Fuel Trim, long term malfunctions in the fuel system will be detected.

If a malfunction has been detected during two consecutive trips, the MIL will come on and DTC P0171 and/or P0172 will be stored.

Note. If some of the DTCs listed below are stored at the same time as DTC P0171 and/or P0172, troubleshoot those DTCs first, then troubleshoot DTC P0171 and/or P0172.

P0107, P0108, P1128-9: MAP Sensor

P0191: Fuel Pressure Sensor

P0135: Primary HO2S Heater

P0137, P0138: Secondary HO2S

P0141: Secondary HO2S Heater

P0401: EGR Flow Insufficient

P1259: VTEC System

P1491: EGR Valve Lift Insufficient

P1498: EGR Valve Lift Sensor High Voltage

Misfire detection is accomplished by monitoring the crankshaft speed with the crankshaft speed fluctuation (CKF) sensor which is attached to the crankshaft.

If misfiring strong enough to damage the catalyst is detected, the MIL will blink during the time of its occurrence, and DTC P0301, P0302, P0303 or P0304 will be stored. Then, after the misfire has ceased, the MIL will come on.

If misfiring that increases emissions is detected during two consecutive driving cycles, the MIL will come on, and DTC P0301, P0302, P0303 or P0304 will be stored.

Note. If some of the DTCs listed below are stored at the same time as a misfire DTC, troubleshoot those DTCs first, then troubleshoot the misfire DTC.

P0131, P0132: HO2S

P0171, P0172: Fuel supply system

P0335, P0336: CKF sensor

P1381, P1382: CYP sensor

Misfire detection is accomplished by monitoring the crankshaft speed with the crankshaft speed fluctuation (CKF) sensor which is attached to the crankshaft.

If misfiring strong enough to damage the catalyst is detected, the MIL will blink during the time of its occurrence, and DTC P0300 and some of DTCs P0301 through P0304 will be stored. Then, after misfire has ceased, the MIL will come on.

If misfiring that increases emissions is detected during two consecutive driving cycles, the MIL will come on, and DTC P0300 and some of DTCs P0301 through P0304 will be stored.

Note. If some of the DTCs listed below are stored at the same time as a misfire DTC. Troubleshoot those DTCs first, then troubleshoot the misfire DTC.

P0131, P0132: HO2S

P0171, P0172: Fuel metering

P0401, P1491, P1498: EGR system

P1253: VTEC System

P1361, P1362: TDC sensor

P1381, P1382: CYP sensor

P1508: IAC valve

The CKP Sensor determines timing for fuel injection and ignition of each cylinder and also detects engine speed. The TDC Sensor determines ignition timing at start-up (cranking) and when crank angle is abnormal. The CYP Sensor detects the position of No. 1 cylinder for sequential fuel injection to each cylinder. The CKP/TDC/CYP Sensor is built into the distributor.

Note. If DTC P1359 is stored at the same time as DTC P0335, P0336, P1361, P1362, P1381 and/or P1382, troubleshoot DTC P1359 first, then troubleshoot those DTCs.

The diagnostic system has a pulser rotor on the crankshaft and a pulse pick-up sensor on the engine block. The PCM monitors the crankshaft speed fluctuation based on the CKF sensor signal, and judges that an engine misfire occurred if the fluctuation goes beyond a predetermined limit.
