CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

The Mass Air Flow (MAF) meter measures the amount of air flowing through the throttle valve. The ECM uses this information to determine the fuel injection time and provide a proper air fuel ratio. Inside the MAF meter, there is a heated platinum wire exposed to the flow of intake air.

By applying a specific current to the wire, the ECM heats this wire to a given temperature. The flow of incoming air cools the wire and an internal thermistor, affecting their resistance. To maintain a constant current value, the ECM varies the voltage applied to these components in the MAF meter. The voltage level is proportional to the airflow through the sensor. The ECM interprets this voltage as the intake air amount. The circuit is constructed so that the platinum hot wire and temperature sensor provide a bridge circuit, with the power transistor controlled so that the potential of A and B remains equal to maintain the set temperature.

The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor, mounted on the Mass Air Flow (MAF) meter, monitors the intake air temperature. The IAT sensor has a thermistor that varies its resistance depending on the intake air temperature. When the intake air temperature is low, the resistance in the thermistor increases. When the temperature is high, the resistance drops. The variations in resistance are reflected as voltage changes to the ECM terminal (Scheme 175)

The IAT sensor is connected to the ECM. The 5 V power source voltage in the ECM is applied to the IAT sensor from terminal THA via resistor R.

The resistor R and the IAT sensor are connected in series. When the resistance value of the IAT sensor changes in accordance with changes in the intake air temperature, the voltage at terminal THA also changes. Based on this signal, the ECM increases the fuel injection volume to improve the driveability during cold engine operation.

Scheme 207: MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM estimates the coolant temperature based on starting temperature, engine loads, and engine speeds. The ECM then compares the estimated temperature with the actual ECT. When the estimated coolant temperature reaches 75°C (167°F), the ECM checks the actual ECT. If the actual ECT is less than 75°C (167°F), the ECM will interpret this as a fault in the engine cooling system or thermostat and set a DTC.

The fuel trim is related to the feedback compensation value, not to the basic injection time. The fuel trim includes the short-term fuel trim and the long-term fuel trim.

The short-term fuel trim is the short-term fuel compensation used to maintain the air-fuel ratio at stoichiometric air-fuel ratio. The signal from the Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) indicates whether the air-fuel ratio is RICH or LEAN compared to the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio. This variance triggers a reduction in the fuel volume if the air-fuel ratio is RICH, and an increase in the fuel volume if it is LEAN.

The short-term fuel trim varies from the central value due to individual engine differences, wear over time and changes in the operating environment. The long-term fuel trim, which controls overall fuel compensation, steadies long-term deviations of the short-term fuel trim from the central value.

If both the short-term fuel trim and the long-term fuel trim are LEAN or RICH beyond a certain value, it is detected as a malfunction, the MIL is illuminated and a DTC is set.

Scheme 255

Scheme 255: CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

HINT

  1. When DTC P0171 or P0174 is recorded, the actual air-fuel ratio is on the LEAN side. When DTC P0172 or P0175 is recorded, the actual air-fuel ratio is on the RICH side.
  2. If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the air-fuel ratio is LEAN and DTC P0171 or P0174 may be recorded. The MIL then turns on.
  3. If the total of the short-term fuel trim value and long-term fuel trim value is within the malfunction threshold (and ECT is more than 75°C (167°F)), the system is functioning normally.

HINT

It is possible the malfunctioning area can be found using the active test "Control the injection volume A/F sensor" operation. The active test can determine if the HO2S or the potential trouble areas are malfunctioning or not.

The injection volume can be switched to -12.5 % (decrease) or +25 % (increase) by the active test.

The active test procedure enables a technician to check and graph the voltage outputs of the HO2Ss.

Procedure

  1. Connect the hand-held tester to the Controller Area Network Vehicle Interface Module (CAN VIM). Then connect the CAN VIM to the DLC3.
  2. Turn the ignition switch ON.
  3. Warm up the engine by running the engine at 2,500 RPM for approximately 90 seconds.
  4. Enter the following menus: Active Test/ Control the injection volume A/F sensor.
  5. Perform the active test at the engine idling.

Standard

The HO2S reacts in accordance with increase and decrease of injection volume +25 % --> Rich output: more than 0.55 V

12.5 % --> Lean output: Less than 0.4 V

Note. The HO2S (sensor 1) output has a few seconds of delay and the HO2S (sensor 2) output has a maximum of 20 seconds of delay. If the vehicle is short of fuel, the air-fuel ratio becomes LEAN and the DTCs will be recorded.

Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

A high HO2S (sensor 1) voltage (0.55 V or more) indicates a RICH air fuel ratio.

A low HO2S (sensor 1) voltage (0.4 V or less) indicates a LEAN air fuel ratio.

When the engine is cranked, current flows from terminal ST of the ignition switch to the starter relay coil and also current flows to terminal STA of the ECM (STA signal). When the STA signal and NE signal are input to the ECM, Transistor 1 (Tr1) of the ECM is turned ON, current flows to the coil of the circuit opening relay (Marking C/OPN), the relay switches on, power is supplied to the fuel pump, and the fuel pump operates. While the NE signal is generated (engine running), the ECM keeps Tr1 ON (circuit opening relay ON) and the fuel pump also keeps operating. The fuel pump speed is controlled at two levels (high speed or low speed) by the condition of the engine (starting, light load, heavy load).

The fuel pump operates at high speed when: 1) the engine starts and the STA signal is ON; and 2) Transistor 2 (Tr2) of the ECM is OFF, causing the fuel pump relay (Marking: F/PMP) to close and battery positive voltage to be applied directly to the fuel pump.

The fuel pump operates at low speed when: 1)after the engine starts, the engine is idling or has a light load; and 2) since the ECM's Tr2 is ON, battery positive voltage is applied to the fuel pump via the fuel pump resistor.

Scheme 276

Scheme 276: CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

When a misfire occurs in the engine, hydrocarbons (HC) enter the exhaust in high concentrations. If the HC concentration is too high, exhaust emissions levels may increase. High concentrations of HC can also cause the temperature of the catalyst to increase, possibly damaging the catalyst. To prevent this increase in emissions and limit the possibility of thermal damage, the ECM monitors the misfire rate. When the temperature of the catalyst reaches a point of thermal degradation, the ECM will continuously flash the MIL. For monitoring misfire, the ECM uses both the Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor and the Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor. The CMP sensor is used to identify misfiring cylinders and the CKP sensor is used to measure variations in the crankshaft rotation speed. The misfire counter records how many times the crankshaft rotation speed variations exceed threshold values.

If the misfiring rate exceeds the threshold value and could cause emissions deterioration, the ECM illuminates the MIL and set a DTC.

Scheme 277

Scheme 277

HINT

When several codes for misfired cylinders are recorded repeatedly but no random misfire codes are recorded, this indicates that the misfires were detected and recorded at different times. Random misfire codes are recorded only when several misfires occur at the same time.

Reference: Inspection using an oscilloscope.

With the engine idling, check the waveform between terminals #10 to #80 and E1 of the ECM connector The correct waveform is as shown.

If DTCs besides misfire DTCs are memorized simultaneously, troubleshoot the non-misfire DTCs first.

  1. Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
  2. If the misfire does not occur when the vehicle is brought to the workshop, the misfire can be confirmed by reproducing the condition of the freeze frame data. Also, after finishing the repair, confirm that there is no misfire (see «CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN»(ref-209347-S28638052682005120900000) ).
  3. On 6 and 8 cylinder engines, cylinder specific misfire fault codes are disabled at high engine speeds. If the misfire starts in a high engine speed area or the misfire occurs only in a high engine speed area, only the general fault code P0300 will be stored. When only a general misfire fault code like P0300 is stored: Erase the general misfire fault code from the scan tool. Start the engine and drive the confirmation pattern (see «CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN»(ref-209347-S28638052682005120900000) ). Read the value of the misfire ratio for each cylinder. Or, read the DTC. Perform repairs on the cylinder that has a high misfire ratio. Or repair the cylinder indicated by the DTC. After finishing repairs, drive the confirmation pattern again and confirm that no misfire occurs.
  4. When either of SHORT FT #1, LONG FT #1, SHORT FT #2 or LONG FT #2 in the freeze frame data is over the range of +/-20 %, there is a possibility that the air-fuel ratio is becoming RICH (-20 % or less) or LEAN (+20 % or more). When COOLANT TEMP in the freeze frame data is less than 75°C (167°F), there is a possibility of misfire only during engine warm-up.
  5. If the misfire cannot be reproduced, the following reasons may apply: 1) the vehicle has low fuel, 2) improper fuel is being used, 3) the ignition plug is contaminated, or 4) another problem.
  6. Be sure to check the value on the misfire counter after the repair.

Select the engine RPM, calculated load, CYL#1, #2, #3, #4, #5, #6, #7 and #8 of the DATA LIST. Allow the engine to idle. Read the misfire count of the cylinders #1 to #8. If no misfire counts in all the cylinders, move the shift lever into the D position and repeat steps (b) to (e). If misfire counts still do not occur, perform steps (f) and (g). Drive the vehicle with the MISFIRE RPM and the MISFIRE LOAD. Read the misfire count of the cylinders #1 to #8, or DTCs. Result: HINT: If it is difficult to reproduce misfires for each cylinder, check the DATA LIST item called MISFIRE MAR GIN. Try to find vehicle driving conditions that lower the MISFIRE MARGIN value. Values above 3 are considered normal. If the freeze frame data's record of the ECT is below 75°C (167°F), the misfire may be detected only when the engine is cold. If the freeze frame data's record of the ENGINE RUN TIME is below 120 seconds, the misfire may be detected right after the engine is started. *Misfire margin indicates possibility that misfires do not occur. The misfires are counted when the misfire margin is 0 % or less. There is little possibility of misfires if the misfire margin is less than 30 %.

***at type knock sensor (non-resonant type) can detect vibration in a wide band of frequency (6 kHz to 15 kHz).

The sensor, located on the cylinder block, detects spark knock. When a spark knock occurs, the knock sensor picks up vibrations in a specific frequency range. When the ECM detects signal voltage in this frequency range, it retards the ignition timing to suppress the knocking. The ECM also senses background engine noise with the knock sensor and uses this noise to check for faults in the sensor.

The sensor plate rotates and as each tooth passes through the pick-up coil, a pulse signal is created. The pick-up coil generates 34 signals for each engine revolution. Based on these signals, the ECM calculates the CKP and engine RPM. Using these calculations, the fuel injection time and ignition timing are controlled.

The Variable Valve Timing (VVT) sensor consists of a magnet, iron core and pickup coil. The VVT signal plate has 3 teeth on its outer circumference and is installed on the camshaft timing pulley. When the camshafts rotates, changes occur on the camshaft protrusions and the pickup coil air gaps. These changes cause fluctuations in the magnetic field and generate voltage in the pickup coil.

Each sensor monitors its timing rotor, which is located on the camshaft. The ECM uses the sensor to detect the camshaft angle. The camshaft rotation synchronizes with the crankshaft rotation, and this sensor communicates the rotation of the camshaft timing rotor as a pulse signal to the ECM. Based on the signal, ECM controls camshaft position.

Scheme 350

Scheme 350: CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

The Evaporative emissions (EVAP) system is equipped to reduce EVAP in the fuel tank.

The EVAP system contains the following

Scheme 351

Scheme 351
  1. Canister: Stores EVAP that is created in the fuel tank.
  2. Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) sensor: Measures the FTP.
  3. EVAP VSV: Opens and purges EVAP in the EVAP canister into the intake manifold. ON: open OFF: closed
  4. Canister Closed Valve (CCV): Introduces atmosphere to the EVAP canister when it opens. The CCV opens under the normal condition. ON: closed OFF: open
  5. Bypass VSV: Connects the fuel tank and EVAP canister.

Scheme 352

Scheme 352: MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM monitors EVAP leak and the components on the EVAP system using a continuous test called the EVAP System Test. The EVAP System Test is done according to the following procedures

  1. The ECM starts the EVAP System Test when the following conditions are met. The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) and the Intake Air Temperature (IAT) are 10 to 35°C (50 95°F) when the engine is started (P0455, P0456). The ECT and IAT is 10 to 32°C (50 to 90°F) when the engine was started (P0442). The difference of the ECT and IAT is -7 to 11°C (-12.6 to 20°F) when the engine was started. FTP is stabilized.
  2. The ECM measures the increase in EVAP (increase in FTP).
  3. The ECM closes the CCV to shut out the atmosphere and opens the bypass VSV to connect the EVAP canister and the fuel tank. Then the ECM opens the EVAP VSV to use the intake manifold's pressure to create a vacuum (negative pressure) in the EVAP canister and fuel tank.
  4. If the FTP does not decrease while a vacuum was being introduced (step (C)), the ECM determines that the EVAP VSV is stuck closed. The ECM illuminates the MIL (2 trip detection logic) and sets DTC P0441.
  5. The ECM closes the EVAP VSV to seal the EVAP system. The ECM then performs an EVAP leak check by monitoring FTP increase for 5 seconds. If the FTP increase is larger than the specified value, the ECM interprets this as an EVAP 0.02 inch leak. The ECM illuminates the MIL (2 trip detection logic) and sets DTC P0456. If the FTP increase is larger than an EVAP 0.02 inch leak, the ECM interprets this as an EVAP 0.04 inch leak. The ECM illuminates the MIL (2 trip detection logic) and sets DTC P0442. If the FTP does not drop to -18 mmHg-g (-2.4 kPa) when creation of vacuum (negative pressure) is finished, the ECM interprets this as an EVAP gross leak. The ECM illuminates the MIL (2 trip detection logic) and sets DTC P0455.
  6. The ECM opens the CCV to check CCV operation. If the FTP increase is smaller than the specified value, the ECM determines that the CCV is stuck closed. The ECM illuminates the MIL (2 trip detection logic) and sets DTC P0446.
  7. The ECM closes the bypass VSV to check bypass VSV operation.

If the FTP increase is larger than the specified value, the ECM interprets this as a bypass VSV malfunction. The ECM illuminates the MIL (2 trip detection logic) and sets DTC P2418.

If the FTP is less than the specified value, the ECM determines that the EVAP VSV is stuck open or the CCV to check closed. The ECM illuminates the MIL (2 trip detection logic) and sets DTCs P0441 and P0446.

HINT

  1. If DTC P0441 (purge flow), P0446, P2418 (CCV or bypass VSV), P0451, P0452 or P0453 (evaporate pressure sensor) is output with DTC P0442, P0455 or P0456, first troubleshoot DTC P0441, P0446, P2418, P0451, P0452 or P0453. If no malfunction is detected, troubleshoot DTC P0442 or P0456 next.
  2. Ask the customer if, after the MIL came on, the customer found the fuel tank cap was loose and tightened it. Also ask the customer if the fuel tank cap was loose when refuelling. If the fuel tank cap was loose, it was the cause of the DTC. If the fuel tank cap was not loose or if the customer was not sure if that was loose, troubleshoot according to the following procedure.
  3. Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was running or stopped, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
  4. When the ENGINE RUN TIME in the freeze frame data is less than 200 seconds, carefully check the FTP sensor.

The idle speed is controlled by the Electronic Throttle Control System (ETCS). The ETCS is comprised of: 1) a one valve type throttle body; 2) the throttle actuator, which operates the throttle valve; 3) the Throttle Position (TP) sensor, which detects the opening angle of the throttle valve; 4) the Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) sensor, which detects the accelerator pedal position; 5) the ECM, which controls the ETCS. Based on the target idle speed, the ECM controls the throttle actuator to provide the proper throttle valve opening angle.

The Electronic Throttle Control System (ETCS) has a dedicated power supply circuit. The voltage (+BM) is monitored and when the voltage is low (less than 4 V), the ECM concludes that the ETCS has a fault and current to the throttle actuator is cut.

When the voltage becomes unstable, the ETCS itself becomes unstable. For this reason, when the voltage is low, the current to the throttle actuator is cut. If repairs are made and the system has returned to normal, turn the ignition switch to OFF. The ECM then allows current t oflow to the throttle actuator so that it can be restarted.
