Trouble Symptom |
Inspection Procedure No. |
|
| Communication with M.U.T.-III is impossible |
Communication between M.U.T.-III and engine-ECU is not possible. |
1 |
|
| Engine warning lamp |
The engine warning lamp does not illuminate right after the ignition switch is turned to "ON". |
2 |
|
| The engine warning lamp remains illuminating and never goes out. |
3 |
||
| Starting |
Starting impossible (starter not operative) |
The starter is not operable. |
4 |
| Starting impossible (Starter operative but no initial combustion) |
The starter is operative and cranks the engine, but no initial combustion occurs in the cylinders to start the engine. |
5 |
|
| Starting impossible (Initial combustion but no complete combustion) |
Initial combustion occurs, but the engine stalls soon due to the incomplete combustion. |
6 |
|
| Engine does not start properly (Long time to start) |
The engine starts, but it takes too long for cranking. |
||
| Improper idling |
Unstable idling (Rough idling, hunting) |
The engine speed is not constant and fluctuates during the idling. Usually, this malfunction can be judged from the shaking tachometer pointer or vibrations transmitted to the steering wheel, shift lever, vehicle body and so on. |
7 |
| Improper idling speed (Too high or too low) |
The idling speed is not within the normal range. |
||
| Engine stalls during idling (Die out) |
The engine stalls during the idling in no relation to the vehicle movement. |
||
| Engine stalls |
The engine stalls when starting the car (pass out) |
The engine stalls when the accelerator pedal is depressed in the idling speed, or during the operation. |
8 |
| Engine stalls at deceleration |
The engine stalls at the deceleration. |
||
| Driving |
Engine does not revolve up |
The engine speed does not increase even when the accelerator pedal is depressed. |
9 |
| Hesitation, sag |
The response of vehicle speed (engine speed) is delayed when the accelerator pedal is depressed to accelerate vehicle speed, or the vehicle speed (engine speed) is temporarily dropped during the acceleration. This phenomenon is called "hesitation" and a serious hesitation is called "sag". |
10 |
|
| Poor acceleration |
The engine operates smoothly at a constant-speed run, but the vehicle does not accelerate properly as the throttle valve opening changes. In addition, vehicle will not run in the specified maximum speed. |
||
| Stumble |
The engine speed increase is delayed when the accelerator pedal is initially depressed at the starting. |
||
| Surge |
At a constant-speed or acceleration the vehicle is subject to repeated jerking (in terms of the drive speed) in the driving direction. |
||
| The feeling of impact or vibration when accelerating |
The driver feels a sudden impact when the vehicle is accelerated. |
11 |
|
| The feeling of impact or vibration when decelerating |
The driver feels a sudden impact when the vehicle is decelerated. |
12 |
|
| Knocking |
Sharp sound like a hammer striking on the cylinder walls during the driving can be heard and wrongly affects the driving. |
13 |
|
| Ignition timing deviation |
The basic ignition timing is deviated from the datum value. |
14 |
|
| Stopping |
Run on (Dieseling) |
The engine continues to run after the ignition switch is in "LOCK " (OFF) position. |
15 |
| Exhaust gas |
Odour, white smoke, black smoke The concentration of CO/HC is high during the idling. |
The exhaust has an abnormal odour. Either white or black exhaust gas comes out. The concentration of CO/HC is high during the idling. |
16 |
| Charging performance |
Battery run down |
The battery is soon rundown. Or, the charging ability of battery is small. |
17 |
| Cooling performance |
Overheating |
The temperature of engine cooling water is extremely high. |
18 |
| ECO mode indicator |
In running, the ECO mode indicator shows nothing. |
24 |
|
| warning | When touching the throttle valve, surely shut off the driving circuits of the throttle valve. In the event that the throttle valve is operated, a finger might be injured as the result of being caught by the throttle valve. |
| caution | During troubleshooting if the ignition switch is turned to ON with the connectors, etc. disconnected, some diagnosis code may be saved in other system. After the troubleshooting is completed, always make sure the diagnosis codes of the entire systems. If it is found that some diagnosis codes have been stored, erase them. |
| note | When the racing (2,000 to 5,000 r/min or more) continues on the vehicle stopped with no load during the specified time or more, the increase in the engine speed might be limited. This comes from the engine protection and control functions and is not a malfunction. |
