When the DTC P0171 is recorded, the actual air±fuel ratio is on the lean side. When DTC P0172 is
recorded, the actual air±fuel ratio is on the rich side.

If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the air±fuel ratio is lean and DTC P0171 is recorded. The MIL then comes
on.

If the total of the short±term fuel trim value and long±term fuel trim value is within + 35 % (80°C (176°F)
or more), the system is functioning normally.

The A/F sensors (bank 1, 2 sensor 1) output voltage and the short±term fuel trim value can be read
using the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand±held tester.

The ECM controls the voltage of AFR
, AFL
, AFR and AFL terminals of ECM to the fixed volt-
age. Therefore, it is impossible to confirm the A/F sensor output voltage without OBD II scan tool or
TOYOTA hand±held tester.

OBD II scan tool (excluding TOYOTA hand±held tester) displays the one fifth of the A/F sensors (bank
1, 2 sensor 1) output voltage which is displayed on the TOYOTA hand±held tester.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Read freeze frame data using TOYOTA hand±held tester or OBD II scan tool. Because freeze frame records
the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected, when troubleshooting it is useful for determining
whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine warmed up or not, the air±fuel ratio lean or rich, etc.
at the time of the malfunction.

2 Check injector injection (See page SF±25).

DTC P0171 System too Lean (Fuel Trim)
(Except California Spec.)
DTC P0172 System too Rich (Fuel Trim)
(Except California Spec.)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Fuel trim refers to the feedback compensation value compared against the basic injection time. Fuel trim
includes short±term fuel trim and long±term fuel trim.
Short±term fuel trim is the short±term fuel compensation used to maintain the air±fuel ratio at its ideal
theoretical value. The signal from the heated oxygen sensor indicates whether the air±fuel ratio is RICH or
LEAN compared to the ideal theoretical value, triggering a reduction in fuel volume if the air±fuel ratio is rich,
and an increase in fuel volume if it is lean.
Long±term fuel trim is overall fuel compensation carried out long±term to compensate for continual deviation
of the short±term fuel trim from the central value due to individual engine differences, wear over time and
changes in the usage environment.
If both the short±term fuel trim and long±term fuel trim are LEAN or RICH beyond a certain value, it is
detected as a malfunction and the MIL lights up.

corded, the actual air±fuel ratio is on the RICH side.

If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the air±fuel ratio is LEAN and DTC P0171 is recorded. The MIL then
comes on.

DTC P0303 Cylinder 3 Misfire Detected
DTC P0304 Cylinder 4 Misfire Detected
DTC P0305 Cylinder 5 Misfire Detected
DTC P0306 Cylinder 6 Misfire Detected
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Misfire: The ECM uses the crankshaft position sensor and camshaft position sensor to monitor changes in
the crankshaft rotation for each cylinder.
The ECM counts the number of times the engine speed change rate indicates that misfire has occurred.
When the misfire rate equals or exceeds the count indicating that the engine condition has deteriorated, the
MIL lights up.
If the misfire rate is high enough and the driving conditions will cause catalyst overheating, the MIL blinks
when misfiring occurs.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:

If is the case that DTC besides misfire is memorized simultaneously, first perform the troubleshooting
for them.

Read freeze frame data using TOYOTA hand±held tester or OBD II scan tool. Because freeze frame
data records the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected, when troubleshooting it is useful
for determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine warmed up or not, the air±fuel
ratio lean or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction.

When the vehicle is brought to the workshop and the misfire is not occurred, misfire can be confirmed
by reproducing the condition or freeze frame data. Also, after finishing the repair, confirm that there
is no misfire. (See the confirmation driving pattern)

When either of SHORT FT #1, LONG FT #1, SHORT FT #2 or LONG FT #2 in the freeze frame data
is besides the range of ±20%, there is a possibility that the air±fuel ratio is inclining either to ºrichº
(±20% or less) or ºleanº (+20% or more).

When COOLANT TEMP in the freeze frame data is less than 80°C (176°F), there is a possibility or
misfire only during warming up.

In the case that misfire cannot be reproduced, the reason may be because of the driving with lack or
fuel, the use of improper fuel, a stain of ignition plug, and etc.
1 Check wire harness, connector and vacuum hose in engine room.
CHECK:
(a) Check the connection conditions of wire harness and connector.
(b) Check the disconnection, piping and break of vacuum hose.
NG Repair or replace, then confirm that there is no
misfire (See the confirmation driving pattern).

DTC P0401 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Flow
Insufficient Detected (Ex CA Spec.)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The EGR system recirculates exhaust gas, which is controlled to the proper quantity to suit the driving condi-
tions, into the intake air mixture to slow down combustion, reduce the combustion temperature and reduce
NOx emissions.
The lift amount of EGR valve is controlled by the vacuum which is regulated by the Duty±VSV operated by
the ECM. The lift amount of EGR valve is detected by the EGR valve position sensor which is mounted on
the EGR valve and it provides feedback to the ECM to control the lift amount of EGR valve in response to
engine operating conditions.
Under the following conditions, EGR is cut to maintain driveability.

HINT:

After confirming DTC P1130 or P01150, use the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand±held tester to con-
firm voltage output of A/F sensor (AFS B1 S1/O2S B1 S1) from ºCURRENT DATAº.

The A/F sensor's output voltage and the short±term fuel value can be read using the OBD II scan tool
or TOYOTA hand±held tester.

The ECM controls the voltage of AFR/AFL
and AFR/AFL terminals of ECM to the fixed voltage.
Therefore, it is impossible to confirm the A/F sensor output voltage without OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA
hand±held tester.

OBD II scan tool (excluding TOYOTA hand±held tester) displays the one fifth of the A/F sensor output
voltage which is displayed on the TOYOTA hand±held tester.
