COMMENT ON TROUBLE SYMPTOM
  • Failure is possibly caused by improper air-fuel ratio, deteriorated catalyst, failed ignition system, failed fuel system, failed compression pressure or other faults.
PROBABLE CAUSE
  • Failed air-fuel control system
  • Failed ignition system
  • Failed fuel system
  • Failed intake and exhaust system
  • Failed emission control system
  • Failed compression pressure
  • Failed catalytic converter
  • Failed engine-A/T-ECU
STEP 2. Check injector for operating sound.
Q: Can operating sound be heard?
YES:  Go to Step 3 .
NO: 
  • Check the injector system of the defective cylinder.
  • (Refer to Code No. P0201: No. 1 injector system ).
  • (Refer to Code No. P0202: No. 2 injector system ).
  • (Refer to Code No. P0203: No. 3 injector system ).
  • (Refer to Code No. P0204: No. 4 injector system ).
STEP 3. Check ignition timing.
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 4 .
NO:  Check for offset ignition timing (Refer to Inspection Procedure 16 ).
STEP 4. MUT-II/III data list
    1. Item 12: Air flow sensor
    1. Item 13: Intake air temperature sensor
    1. Item 21: Engine coolant temperature sensor
    1. Item 25: Barometric pressure sensor <DOHC>
Q: Are the check results normal?
YES:  Go to Step 5 .
NO:  Perform the diagnosis code classified check procedure for the sensor that has shown an abnormal data value (Refer to Inspection Chart for Diagnosis Codes ).
STEP 8. MUT-II/III data list
    1. Item 11: Oxygen sensor (front) <SOHC>
    1. Item 11: Oxygen sensor <DOHC>
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 9 .
NO: 
  • Check oxygen sensor system (front) (Refer to Code No. P0130 <SOHC> ).
  • Check oxygen sensor system (Refer to Code No. P0130 <DOHC> ).
STEP 12. Measure fuel pressure.
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 13 .
NO:  Repair.
STEP 15. Check spark plug cable itself.
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 16 .
NO:  Replace spark plug cable.
STEP 16. Check ignition coil itself.
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 17 .
NO:  Replace ignition coil.
STEP 17. Check compression pressure.
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 18 .
NO:  Repair.
STEP 18. Check injector for spraying condition.
Q: Does trouble symptom persist?
YES:  Go to Step 19 .
NO:  Replace injector.
