DTC Confirmation Procedure
WARNING:
If you do not select a suitable route and take proper precautions when performing a road test, an accident can occur.
•Select a level road with no traffic to minimize the risk of accident.
•Perform the test extremely carefully.
•Perform the road test with 2 persons, a driver and a tester.
NOTE:
Check that the following condition is met in this “DTC Confirmation Procedure”.
•ECT > 40 °C (104 °F)
1)Warm up engine to normal operating temperature.
2)Drive vehicle at 80 to 100 km/h (50 to 62 mile/h) constantly for 5 min. while engine keeps running at 2,400 rpm or more. (Keep throttle valve opening constant in this step.)
DTC Troubleshooting
Step Action Yes No
1
Was “Engine and Emission Control System Check” performed?
Go to Step 2.
2
Knock sensor signal circuit check
1)With ignition “OFF”, disconnect “C01” and “E01” connectors of ECM and knock sensor connector.
2)Check for proper terminal connection to “C01” and “E01” connectors and knock sensor connector.
3)If connections are OK, check the following points.
•Resistance of “A1” and “B1” circuits: less than 1 Ω
•Resistance between each of “A1” and “B1” circuits and ground: infinity
•Resistance between “A1” circuit terminal and “B1” circuit terminal at knock sensor connector: infinity
•Voltage of “A1” and “B1” circuits: approx. 0 V (When ignition is “ON”)
Is check result OK?
Go to Step 3.
Repair or replace defective wire harness.
