WARNING:
When performing a road test, select a place where there is no traffic or possibility of a traffic acci-
dent and be very careful during testing to avoid occurrence of an accident.

DTC P0300/P0301/P0302/P0303/P0304/P0305/P0306 Random Misfire/Cylinder
1 Misfire/Cylinder 2 Misfire/Cylinder 3 Misfire/Cylinder 4 Misfire Detected/Cyl-
inder 5 Misfire Detected/Cylinder 6 Misfire Detected
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
ECM (PCM) measures the angle speed of the crankshaft based on the pulse signal from the CKP sensor and
CMP sensor for each cylinder. If it detects a large change in the angle speed of the crankshaft, it concludes
occurrence of a misfire. When the number of misfire is counted by the ECM (PCM) beyond the DTC detecting
condition, it determines the cylinder where the misfire occurred and outputs it as DTC.

DTC P0420 Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 1)
SYSTEM DIAGRAM
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Exhaust oxygen concentration at the pre-catalyst and the post-catalyst of WU-TWC is detected from HO2S-1
and HO2S-2 respectively and accordingly ECM (PCM) controls the closed loop which then controls the fuel
injection volume. (Refer to Section 6E2.) While the above control is going on and if WU-TWC is in good condi-
tion, the output voltage of HO2S-2 is maintained at specified level. As WU-TWC becomes deteriorated, even
when the above control is going on, the exhaust gas which has passed WU-TWC then passes HO2S-2 at the
exhaust oxygen concentration similar to that of the pre-catalyst without being oxygenated or converted. Thus,
waveforms of HO2S-1 and HO2S-2 output voltages become alike. ECM (PCM) judges deterioration of WU-TWC
by comparing waveforms of HO2S-1 and HO2S-2.

WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System:
Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under
“General Description” in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing ser-
vice on or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Ser-
vice Precautions” under “On-Vehicle Service” in air bag system section before performing service
on or around the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in

For the descriptions (items) not found in this section, refer to the same section of service manual
mentioned in the FOREWORD of this manual.
Whether following systems (parts) are used in the particular vehicle or not depends on specifica-
tions. Be sure to bear this in mind when performing service work.
