Engine Control
Data List | Judgment of Data List Values | Faulty Component | Diagnosis Note |
MAP | When MAP is low, there will be difficulty starting. With ignition switch ON or idling, MAP is nearly equal to Atmosphere Pressure (standard atmospheric pressure = 101 kPa). | When MAP is low, the following conditions are possible: The diesel throttle is nearly fully closed. Intake system blocked (turbocharger system also). Exhaust system blocked. | When the ignition switch is ON or the vehicle is idling, MAP (intake manifold absolute pressure) and Atmosphere Pressure are mostly the same (standard atmospheric pressure = 101 kPa). Above approx. 1500 rpm, the turbo becomes effective, and the pressure becomes higher than atmospheric pressure. Inspect while comparing with "Target Booster Pressure". With the accelerator fully open, if the actual Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) is low compared to the target booster pressure by at least 20 kPa for 5 seconds or more, a feeling of insufficient power will occur. |
Results of real-vehicle check: Ignition switch ON: 99 kPa Cranking: 99 kPa Idling (warm up the engine): 99 kPa (2 minutes after starting the vehicle) Running without load (2500 rpm): 113 kPa Driving with the accelerator fully open at 2000 rpm: 143 kPa Driving with the accelerator fully open at 3000 rpm: 209 kPa |

Data List | Judgment of Data List Values | Faulty Component | Diagnosis Note |
Coolant Temp | Engine coolant temperature is approximately equal to intake air temperature after leaving overnight. After warm-up: Engine coolant temperature is 70°C (158°F) or more. In cases when the engine coolant temperature output is obviously higher than the actual engine coolant temperature, when it is cold, there will be difficulty starting due to problems with glow plugs or insufficient fuel injection. In cases when the engine coolant temperature sensor output is obviously lower than the actual engine coolant temperature, when it is warm, there will be difficulty starting (black smoke will also occur) due to an excess of injected fuel. | Engine coolant temperature sensor | If the value is -40°C (-40°F) or 140°C (284°F), the sensor circuit is open or shorted. After a long soak, the coolant temperature, intake air temperature, and ambient air temperature are approximately equal. |

Data List | Judgment of Data List Values | Faulty Component | Diagnosis Note |
Target Common Rail Pressure | - | - | Inspect the (actual) fuel pressure, comparing it against the common rail target value. Considered normal when the actual fuel pressure is within +/-5000 kPa of the target fuel pressure under stable conditions. |
Results of real-vehicle check: Ignition switch ON: 32000 kPa Cranking: 29000 kPa Idling (warm up the engine): 32000 kPa (2 minutes after starting the vehicle) Running without load (2500 rpm): 62000 kPa Running without load (3500 rpm): 80200 kPa Driving with the accelerator fully open at 2000 rpm: 95000 kPa Driving with the accelerator fully open at 3000 rpm: 155000 kPa |
Data List | Judgment of Data List Values | Faulty Component | Diagnosis Note |
Fuel Press | In a stable operating condition (e.g. idling), Fuel Press is Target Common Rail Pressure +/-5000 kPa. During cranking, if Fuel Press is lower than 25000 kPa, there may be difficulty starting. (Take care as there is a response lag when the pressure rises). When Fuel Press is lower than 25000 kPa, rough idling will occur. | If there is a fault with the fuel supply pump (lack of discharge quantity) or pressure limiter (will not fully close), the fuel pressure will drop. Also, a blocked fuel filter, leakage from fuel pipes, and lack of fuel will also make the fuel pressure drop. If air mixes with the fuel, the fuel pressure will shift away from the target fuel pressure. When there is a fault with the fuel supply pump, there is a possibility of lack of power, engine stall, rough idle and difficulty starting. | Fuel press is the actual common rail fuel pressure. Inspect by comparing Fuel Press with Target Common Rail Pressure. The ECM uses Fuel Press for feedback control of Target Fuel Pressure via the supply pump. The injection amount is determined based on the injection timing and fuel pressure. Also, the spray pattern is selected based on the fuel pressure. |
Results of real-vehicle check: Ignition switch ON: 0 kPa Cranking: 29000 kPa Idling (warm up the engine): 32000 kPa (2 minutes after starting the vehicle) Running without load (2500 rpm): 62000 kPa Driving with the accelerator fully open at 2000 rpm: 92000 kPa Driving with the accelerator fully open at 3000 rpm: 155000 kPa |
Data List | Judgment of Data List Values | Faulty Component | Diagnosis Note |
Target Pump SCV Current | Idling after warming up, roughly 923 to 1123 mA. When this value is large, the pump is trying to increase the fuel discharge rate. | With this data, component fault not specified, use this data as a reference. If the current is 3000 mA or more, there is a possibility the suction control valve is stuck. | ECU-calculated value for the suction control valve actuation target current. Value is large when a high fuel pressure is desired. When this deviates from the standard value, it indicates that for some reason, even though the pump is running hard, the actual fuel pressure is inconsistent with the target fuel pressure. |
Results of real-vehicle check: Ignition switch ON: 0 mA Cranking: 1200 mA Running without load (2500 rpm): 1300 mA Driving with the accelerator fully open at 2000 rpm: 1440 mA Driving with the accelerator fully open at 3000 rpm: 1560 mA |
Data List | Judgment of Data List Values | Faulty Component | Diagnosis Note |
Injection Feedback Val #1 (to #8) | When idling after the engine is warmed up, the fuel quantity of each fuel injector is corrected to make each cylinder engine speed equal. Cylinders more than 3 mm3/st may have a fault.
| Fault with a fuel injector or lack of compression of a cylinder with a large Injection Feedback Val. Do a compression Active Test. If there is a cylinder that is around 100 rpm more than the other cylinder, there is a possibility that the compression of that cylinder is being lost. If all the cylinder speeds are even according to the compression Active Test result, then the fuel injector of the cylinder may have a fault. With fuel injector faults, other than difficulty starting, there is a possibility of rough idling, lack of power, black smoke, white smoke and knocking. | When idling after warm up, the injection amount for each cylinder is corrected to optimize the difference of each cylinder engine speed. Example: For cylinders that are slowing the engine speed compared to other cylinders, the injection volume is increased. "Injection Feedback Val" more than 3.0 mm3/st: Injector breakdown or insufficient compression is causing poor combustion. |

Injection Volume | - | - | After warming up the engine, when Injection Volume during idling is 10 mm3/st or more, there is tendency for the injector to clog. |
Results of real-vehicle check: Cranking: 21 mm3/st (Note: Varies depending on coolant temperature) Idling (warm up the engine): 6 mm3/st Running without load (2500 rpm): 9 mm3/st Running without load (4700 rpm): 16 mm3/st Driving with the accelerator fully open at 2000 rpm: 50 mm3/st Driving with the accelerator fully open at 3000 rpm: 70 mm3/st |
Diesel Throttle
Data List | Judgment of Data List Values | Faulty Component | Diagnosis Note |
Actual Throttle Position Actual Throttle Position #2 | When the ignition switch is turned to ON (engine stopped), the diesel throttle is fully open. When the ignition switch is turned from ON to off, the diesel throttle will be fully closed temporarily. With the diesel throttle stuck almost fully closed, there is a possibility of rough idling, engine stall, black smoke, difficulty starting and lack of power. | Diesel throttle body | Actual Throttle Position is the closing percentage of the throttle valve. Fully closed: 100% Fully open: 0%

Results of real-vehicle check: Ignition switch ON: 0% Cranking: 0% Idling (warm up the engine): 84% Running without load (2500 rpm): 32% Driving with the accelerator fully open at 2000 rpm: 0% Driving with the accelerator fully open at 3000 rpm: 0% |
Data List | Judgment of Data List Values | Faulty Component | Diagnosis Note |
Throttle Motor Duty #1 Throttle Motor Duty #2 | Normally operates at 50 +/-20%. If 50 +/-40% continues for a few seconds, it is conceivable that the throttle valve is not sliding properly. 0%: Drive throttle to open side 100%: Drive throttle to closed side | - | When this value is large but the actual opening angle does not move smoothly, there is an unable to close malfunction. If this value is small but the actual opening angle does not move smoothly, there is an unable to open malfunction. Usually this value is at approx. 50 +/-20%, but momentary jumps outside this range do occur. If a duty is outside 50 +/-40% for several seconds, it will be judged that the diesel throttle does not move properly and the MIL will be illuminated. |
Results of real-vehicle check: Ignition switch ON: 61.5% Cranking: 63% Idling (warm up the engine): 37% Running without load (2500 rpm): 53% Driving with the accelerator fully open at 2000 rpm: 62.5% Driving with the accelerator fully open at 3000 rpm: 64% |

Data List | Judgment of Data List Values | Faulty Component | Diagnosis Note |
EGR Close Lrn. Val. | Leave the vehicle idling, with the EGR Close Lrn. Status OK, the normal range of EGR Close Lrn. Val. is within 3.5 to 4.5 V. In cases when EGR Close Lrn. Status is NG or EGR Close Lrn. Val. is at the maximum or minimum (3.5 to 4.5 V) of normal range, it is possible that the EGR valve is not completely closed or a foreign object is lodged in the EGR valve seat area. | - | This value is the EGR position sensor output voltage. As the maximum and minimum settings are 3.5 V and 4.5 V, if the value becomes stuck at either of these, there is a malfunction in the lift sensor or the valve position is shifted (due to foreign matter, etc.). |

Actual Examples of Malfunction |
- HINT:
Fuel is not being supplied to supply pump (Low pressure fuel line clogged)
Fuel is not being injected (Injectors are leaking)
Fuel is not being injected (EDU circuit malfunction)
Fuel supply pump malfunction (Suction control valve momentary sticking)
Increased opening delay of injectors (Internal contamination)
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Explanation of Symptom |
Starting Trouble | For good starting it is essential to have: Sufficient cranking speed. Properly operating engine preheating system. Good quality fuel. With problems such as a depleted battery, the crankshaft speed can become low, or if the engine compression is leaking, the compression pressure will not rise and there will be difficulty starting. When the engine is cold, even if there is compression heat, it will escape from the combustion chamber. For this reason, when the engine is started when it is cold, the glow plugs heat the compressed air. Also after starting the engine, by charging the glow plugs for a fixed time set according to the engine coolant temperature, diesel knocking and white smoke are prevented. The quantity of fuel injected is determined by the fuel pressure and also the amount of time the fuel injector is open. |
