IntroductionNEEC0036
SEF233G
SEF234G
The engine has an ECM to control major systems such as fuel
control, ignition control, idle air control system, etc. The ECM
accepts input signals from sensors and instantly drives actuators.
It is essential that both input and output signals are proper and
stable. At the same time, it is important that there are no problems
such as vacuum leaks, fouled spark plugs, or other problems with
the engine.
It is much more difficult to diagnose a problem that occurs intermit-
tently rather than continuously. Most intermittent problems are
caused by poor electric connections or improper wiring. In this
case, careful checking of suspected circuits may help prevent the
replacement of good parts.
A visual check only may not find the cause of the problems. A road
test with CONSULT-II (or GST) or a circuit tester connected should
be performed. Follow the ªWork Flowº on EC-3084.
Before undertaking actual checks, take a few minutes to talk with
a customer who approaches with a driveability complaint. The cus-
tomer can supply good information about such problems, espe-
cially intermittent ones. Find out what symptoms are present and
under what conditions they occur. A ªDiagnostic Worksheetº like the
example on next page should be used.
Start your diagnosis by looking for ªconventionalº problems first.
This will help troubleshoot driveability problems on an electronically
controlled engine vehicle.
SEF907L
DIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEETNEEC0036S01There are many operating conditions that lead to the malfunction
of engine components. A good grasp of such conditions can make
trouble-shooting faster and more accurate.
In general, each customer feels differently about a problem. It is
important to fully understand the symptoms or conditions for a
customer complaint.
Utilize a diagnostic worksheet like the one on the next page in order
to organize all the information for troubleshooting.
Some conditions may cause the malfunction indicator lamp to
come on steady or blink and DTC to be detected. Examples:
+Vehicle ran out of fuel, which caused the engine to misfire.
+Fuel filler cap was left off or incorrectly screwed on, allowing
fuel to evaporate into the atmosphere.

DESCRIPTION FOR WORK FLOWNEEC0037S01
STEP DESCRIPTION
STEP IGet detailed information about the conditions and the environment when the incident/symptom occurred using the
ªDIAGNOSTIC WORK SHEETº, EC-3083.
STEP IIBefore confirming the concern, check and write down (print out using CONSULT-II or Generic Scan Tool) the (1st
trip) Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) and the (1st trip) freeze frame data, then erase the code and the data. (Refer
to EC-3060.) The (1st trip) DTC and the (1st trip) freeze frame data can be used when duplicating the incident at
STEP III & IV.
Study the relationship between the cause, specified by (1st trip) DTC, and the symptom described by the cus-
tomer. (The ªSymptom Matrix Chartº will be useful. See EC-3102.)
Also check related service bulletins for information.
STEP IIITry to confirm the symptom and under what conditions the incident occurs.
The ªDIAGNOSTIC WORK SHEETº and the freeze frame data are useful to verify the incident. Connect CON-
SULT-II to the vehicle in DATA MONITOR (AUTO TRIG) mode and check real time diagnosis results.
If the incident cannot be verified, perform²Incident Simulation Tests², refer to GI section.
If the malfunction code is detected, skip STEP IV and perform STEP V.
STEP IVTry to detect the (1st trip) Diagnostic Trouble Code by driving in (or performing) the ªDIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE
CODE CONFIRMATION PROCEDUREº. Check and read the (1st trip) DTC and (1st trip) freeze frame data by
using CONSULT-II or Generic Scan Tool.
During the (1st trip) DTC verification, be sure to connect CONSULT-II to the vehicle in DATA MONITOR (AUTO
TRIG) mode and check real time diagnosis results.
If the incident cannot be verified, perform ªIncident Simulation Testsº, refer to GI section.
In case the ªDIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CONFIRMATION PROCEDUREº is not available, perform the
ªOVERALL FUNCTION CHECKº instead. The (1st trip) DTC cannot be displayed by this check, however, this sim-
plified ªcheckº is an effective alternative.
The ªNGº result of the ªOVERALL FUNCTION CHECKº is the same as the (1st trip) DTC detection.
STEP VTake the appropriate action based on the results of STEP I through IV.
If the malfunction code is indicated, proceed to TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR DTC PXXXX.
If the normal code is indicated, proceed to the BASIC INSPECTION. (Refer to EC-3086.) If CONSULT-II is
available, perform ªDATA MONITOR (SPEC)º mode with CONSULT-II and proceed to the ªTROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Ð SPECIFICATION VALUEº, EC-3119. (If malfunction is detected, proceed to ªREPAIR/REPLACEº.) Then perform
inspections according to the Symptom Matrix Chart. (Refer to EC-3102.)
STEP VIIdentify where to begin diagnosis based on the relationship study between symptom and possible causes. Inspect
the system for mechanical binding, loose connectors or wiring damage using (tracing) ªHarness Layoutsº.
Gently shake the related connectors, components or wiring harness with CONSULT-II set in ªDATA MONITOR
(AUTO TRIG)º mode.
Check the voltage of the related ECM terminals or monitor the output data from the related sensors with CON-
SULT-II. Refer to EC-3110.
The ªDIAGNOSTIC PROCEDUREº in EC section contains a description based on open circuit inspection. A short
circuit inspection is also required for the circuit check in the DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE. For details, refer to
ªHOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENTº, ªCircuit Inspectionº, GI section.
Repair or replace the malfunction parts.
STEP VIIOnce you have repaired the circuit or replaced a component, you need to run the engine in the same conditions
and circumstances which resulted in the customer's initial complaint.
Perform the ªDIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CONFIRMATION PROCEDUREº and confirm the normal code [Diag-
nostic trouble code No. P0000 or 0505] is detected. If the incident is still detected in the final check, perform STEP
VI by using a different method from the previous one.
Before returning the vehicle to the customer, be sure to erase the unnecessary (already fixed) (1st trip) DTC in
ECM. (Refer to EC-3060.)
