DESCRIPTION

Text in Illustration

*1	VVT Sensor
*2	Crankshaft Position Sensor
*3	ECM

When the engine misfires, high concentrations of hydrocarbons (HC) enter the exhaust gas. Extremely high HC concentration levels can cause increases in exhaust emissions levels. High concentrations of HC can also cause increases in the Three-way Catalytic Converter (TWC) temperature, which may cause damage to the Three-way Catalytic Converter (TWC). To prevent these increases in emissions and to limit the possibility of thermal damage, the ECM monitors the misfire rate. When the temperature of the Three-way Catalytic Converter (TWC) reaches the point of thermal degradation, the MIL blinks. To monitor misfires, the ECM uses both the VVT sensor and the crankshaft position sensor. The VVT sensor is used to identify any misfiring cylinders and the crankshaft position sensor is used to measure variations in the crankshaft rotation speed. A misfire is counted when the crankshaft rotation speed variations exceed predetermined thresholds.
If the misfire rate exceeds the threshold, the ECM illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC.

DTC No.	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area
P0300	Simultaneous misfiring of several cylinders occurs and one of the following conditions is met (2 trip detection logic): A misfire occurs that may damage the three-way catalytic converter (MIL blinks when detect immediately). An emission deterioration misfire occurs (MIL illuminates).

P0301 P0302 P0303 P0304 P0305 P0306	Misfiring of a specific cylinder occurs and one of the following conditions is met (2 trip detection logic): A misfire occurs that may damage the three-way catalytic converter (MIL blinks when detect immediately). An emission deterioration misfire occurs (MIL illuminates).

When multiple DTCs for misfiring cylinders are stored, but DTC P0300 is not stored, it indicates that misfires have been detected in different cylinders at different times. DTC P0300 is only stored when several misfiring cylinders are detected at the same time.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC when the following condition, which could cause emission deterioration, is detected (2 trip detection logic).

1. An excessive number of misfires (approximately 20 to 50 misfires per 1000 crankshaft revolutions) occurs a total of 4 times.
   

The ECM flashes the MIL (immediate detection logic) and stores a DTC (2 trip detection logic) when the following conditions, which could cause damage to the three-way catalytic converter, is detected.

1. A sufficient amount of misfires to damage the catalyst occurring within 200 crankshaft revolutions is detected 3 times.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
   
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
   
3. Turn the GTS on.
   
4. Record the DTCs and freeze frame data.
   
5. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC operation).
   
6. Using the GTS, switch the ECM from normal mode to check mode (Click here).
   
7. Read the misfire counts of each cylinder (cylinder No. 1 to No. 6) with the engine idling. If any misfire count is displayed, skip the following confirmation driving pattern.
   
8. Drive the vehicle several times with the conditions, such as engine speed and engine load, as shown in Misfire RPM and Misfire Load in the freeze frame data.
   
   

   HINT:

   In order to store misfire DTCs, it is necessary to operate the vehicle for the period of time shown in the table below with the engine speed and engine load the same as Misfire RPM and Misfire Load in the freeze frame data.

   
   

   Engine Speed	Duration
   Idling	8.0 minutes or more
   1000	4.5 minutes or more
   2000	2.5 minutes or more
   3000	1.5 minutes or more

9. Check whether misfires have occurred by checking DTCs and freeze frame data.
   

   HINT:

   Do not turn the ignition switch off until the stored DTCs and freeze frame data have been recorded. When the ECM returns to normal mode (default), the stored DTCs, freeze frame data and other data will be cleared.

10. Record the DTCs, freeze frame data and misfire counts.
    
11. Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
    
12. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC operation).
    

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:

1. If any DTCs other than misfire DTCs are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.
   
2. Read freeze frame data using the GTS. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. 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.
   
3. If misfire does not recur when the vehicle is brought to the workshop, reproduce the conditions stored in the ECM as freeze frame data.
   
4. If misfire still cannot be reproduced even though the conditions stored in the ECM as freeze frame data have been reproduced, one of the following factors may be a cause of the problem:
   
1. The fuel level is low.
   
2. Improper fuel is being used.
   
3. The spark plugs are dirty.
   
5. After finishing repairs, check that no misfires occur in each cylinder (cylinder No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, No. 4, No. 5 and No. 6).
   
6. Be sure to confirm that no misfiring cylinder DTCs are stored again by conducting the confirmation driving pattern after the repairs.
   
7. For 6 and 8 cylinder engines, the ECM intentionally does not store the specific misfiring cylinder DTCs at high engine speeds. If misfires only occur during high engine speed driving, only DTC P0300 is stored.
   In the event of DTC P0300 being output, perform the following operations:
   
1. Clear the DTCs (Click here).
   
2. Start the engine and conduct the confirmation driving pattern.
   
3. Read the misfire counts of each cylinder or the DTCs using the GTS.
   
4. Repair the cylinders that have a high misfire count or are indicated by DTCs.
   
5. After finishing repairs, conduct the confirmation driving pattern again in order to verify that DTC P0300 is not stored.
   
8. When Short FT #1, Long FT #1, Short FT #2 or Long FT #2 in the freeze frame data is outside the range of +/-15%, the air-fuel ratio may be rich (-15% or less) or lean (+15% or more).
   
9. When Coolant Temp in the freeze frame data is below 75°C (167°F), the misfires may have occurred while warming up the engine.
   
10. An extremely imbalanced drive wheel which causes body vibration may cause misfire DTCs to be stored.

   3. If misfires are still not being counted, perform procedures "A" and "B", and then check the misfire counts again.
      Procedure A: Drive the vehicle while matching the vehicle conditions to the Misfire RPM and Misfire Load values noted in the "Read Value Using GTS (Misfire RPM and Misfire Load)" procedure above.
      Procedure B: Read Cylinder #1 Misfire Count to Cylinder #6 Misfire Count or the DTCs output on the GTS.
      

      Result

      Result	Proceed to
      Most misfires occur in only 1 or 2 cylinders	A
      3 cylinders or more have equal misfire counts	B

      HINT:

      1. If it is difficult to reproduce misfires for each cylinder, check the Data List item called Misfire Margin. Try to find vehicle driving conditions that lower the Misfire Margin value. Values above 30% are considered normal.
         
      2. If the freeze frame data's record of the engine coolant temperature is below 75°C (167°F), misfire may be detected only when the engine is cold.
         
      3. If the freeze frame data's record of the Engine Run Time is less than 120 seconds, misfire may only be detected immediately after the engine is started.
