DIAGNOSTIC FORMATS

QUICK TEST and CIRCUIT TESTS are diagnostic formats used to test and service EEC-V system. QUICK TEST allows technician to identify problems and retrieve diagnostic trouble codes. CIRCUIT TESTS check circuits, sensors and actuators.

Before starting any CIRCUIT TEST, follow all steps under QUICK TEST to find correct CIRCUIT TEST. If vehicle passes QUICK TEST and no driveability symptoms or intermittent faults exist, EEC-V system is okay.

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTC)

During QUICK TEST, 3 types of diagnostic trouble codes are retrieved: KOEO, KOER and Continuous Memory Codes. See QUICK TEST for self-test procedures. Codes may be cleared from PCM memory after they have been recorded or repaired. See CLEARING CODES.

KOEO & KOER Self-Test Codes

Record codes in order received. These codes indicate current faults in system and should be serviced in order of appearance. Use DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) REFERENCE CHARTS to identify correct CIRCUIT TEST to perform.

Note. If self-test will not activate or TOOL COMMUNICATION ERROR is received, go to CIRCUIT TEST QA , step 1).

Diagnostic Aids

After each service or repair procedure has been completed, repeat QUICK TEST to ensure all EEC-V systems work properly and diagnostic trouble codes are no longer present.

CATALYST EFFICIENCY MONITOR FEDERAL TEST PROCEDURE

The federal test procedure catalyst efficiency monitor is an on-board strategy designed to monitor and determine when a catalytic converter has fallen below the minimum level of effectiveness in its ability to control exhaust emission. It relies mainly on the front and rear Heated Oxygen Sensors (HO2S) to infer catalyst efficiency based upon oxygen storage capacity. The front and rear HO2S switches are counted under specified conditions for the purpose of calculating rear to front HO2S switch ratio. After the switch ratio is calculated, it is compared against an emission threshold value. If the switch ratio is greater than the emission threshold, the catalyst has failed. The oxygen storage capacity of a high efficiency catalyst will have a low switch ratio and high HC efficiencies. As catalyst efficiency deteriorates, its ability to store oxygen declines and it will begin to have a higher switch ratio and low HC efficiencies. In general, as catalyst efficiency decreases, the switch ratio increases. Inputs from the Engine Coolant Temp (ECT) sensor, Intake Air Temp (IAT) sensor, and Throttle Position (TP) sensors are required to enable the federal test procedure catalyst monitor. To aid in monitor descriptions. refer to illustration. see scheme 4

  1. In the federal test procedure catalyst efficiency monitor test, only switches during steady state cruise conditions of a drive cycle are counted. Switches at idle or other drive modes are not counted. The counting of front and rear HO2S switches continues until a drive cycle is completed. At that time, the ratio of total rear switches to total front HO2S switches is calculated. If the switch ratio is greater than the emission threshold, the catalyst has failed and a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is stored. The DTC associated with this test is DTC P0420.
  2. Catalyst Efficiency DTC is stored in memory, and Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is turned on after catalyst efficiency monitor detects a malfunction up to 6 consecutive drive cycles.

OBD-II MONITOR DISPLAY ON SCAN TOOL

On-board system readiness function is available on New Generation Star (NGS) tester or generic scan tools. Readiness function indicates status of each OBD-II monitor. One Parameter Identification (PID) display on NGS tester, summarizers the status of all monitors.

OBD-II DRIVE CYCLE & DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES

A Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will be stored in PCM memory after a malfunction is first detected. A DTC will be erased from the PCM's memory after 40 engine warm-up cycles without the malfunction being detected after the MIL is turned off. Once a monitor turns on the MIL, it will require 3 consecutive drive cycles without a fault for the MIL to turn off. Another method of erasing the DTC is by initiating a PCM reset. DTC memory storage requirements vary with each monitor. See appropriate monitor under ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC-II MONITOR .
