DTC P050B Cold Start Ignition Timing Performance

DESCRIPTION

This monitor will run when the engine is started at an engine coolant temperature of -10 to 50°C (14 to 122°F). The DTC will be stored after the engine idles for 13 seconds (2 trip detection logic).
The DTC is designed to monitor the ignition timing at cold start. When the engine is started at an engine coolant temperature of lower than 50°C (122°F), the ECM checks the ignition timing at engine idling. If the ignition timing advances beyond the specified level within 10 seconds, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction. The MIL is illuminated and a DTC is stored when the malfunction is detected in consecutive driving cycles (2 trip detection logic).

NOTICE:

When the cable is disconnected from the negative battery terminal during inspections or repairs, the ISC (Idle Speed Control) learning values are cleared. This DTC cannot be stored with the ISC learning values cleared.

HINT:

The ISC learning is performed when the engine is warmed up and has been idling for 5 minutes.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:

1. DTC P050B may be stored when the engine has the symptoms listed below. If necessary, check the trouble areas listed below.
   
   

   Symptom	Factor	Trouble Area
   Low idle speed when engine is cold (immediately after engine start)	Excessive engine friction	Engine oil deterioration Drive belt tension A/C compressor Generator
   Rough idle when engine is cold (immediately after engine start)	Abnormal combustion	Fuel quality

2. Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, 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.
