ENGINE GENERAL INFORMATION AND DIAGNOSIS (H27 ENGINE) 6-1-9
On-Board Diagnostic System (Vehicle with
Monitor Connector)
ECM diagnosis troubles which may occur in the area including the
following parts when the ignition switch is ON and the engine is
running, and indicates the result by turning on of flashing mal-
function indicator lamp (1).
• Heated oxygen sensor (if equipped)
•ECT sensor
•TP sensor
• IAT sensor
• CMP sensor
•MAF sensor
• Knock sensor
• EGR (if equipped)
•VSS
• CPU (Central Processing Unit) of ECM
ECM and malfunction indicator lamp (1) operate as follows.
• Malfunction indicator lamp (1) light when the ignition switch
is turned ON (but the engine at stop) with the diagnosis
switch terminal ungrounded regardless of the condition of
Engine and Emission control system. This is only to check
the malfunction indicator lamp (1) bulb and its circuit.
• If the above areas of Engine and Emission control system is
free from any trouble after the engine start (while engine is
running), malfunction indicator lamp (1) turns OFF.
• When ECM detects a trouble which has occurred in the
above areas, it makes malfunction indicator lamp (1) turn ON
while the engine is running to warn the driver of such occur-
rence of trouble and at the same time it stores the trouble
area in ECM back-up memory. (The memory is kept as it is
even if the trouble was only temporary and disappeared
immediately. And it is not erased unless the power to ECM is
shut off for specified time.)
ECM also indicates trouble area in memory by means of
flashing of malfunction indicator lamp (1) at the time of
inspection. (i.e. when diagnosis switch terminal (2) is con-
nected to ground terminal (3) with a service wire and ignition
switch is turned ON.)
NOTE:
When a trouble occurs in the above areas and disappears
soon while the diagnosis switch terminal is ungrounded
and the engine is running, malfunction indicator lamp (1)
lights and remains ON as the trouble exists but it turns
OFF when the normal condition is restored.

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 DETECTING CONDITION AND TROUBLE AREA
DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1) Connect scan tool to DLC with ignition switch OFF.
2) Turn ON ignition switch and clear DTC, pending DTC and freeze frame data by using scan tool and start
engine.
3) Increase vehicle speed to speed recorded as freeze frame data (V) ± 5 km/h when detecting misfire.
4) Keep driving above vehicle speed for 5 min.
5) Stop vehicle and check DTC (or pending DTC) by using scan tool.DTC DETECTING CONDITION TROUBLE AREA
DTC P0300 :
• Misfire which causes catalyst to overheat during 200 engine
revolutions is detected at 2 or more cylinders. (MIL flashes as
long as this misfire occurs continuously.)
• Misfire which affects exhaust emission adversely during 1000
engine revolutions is detected at 2 or more cylinders (2 driving
cycle detection logic)• Ignition system
• Fuel injector and its circuit
• Fuel line pressure
• Engine compression
• Abnormal air drawn in
• EGR system
• Fuel level sensor
• Valve lash adjuster
• Valve timing DTC P0301, P0302, P0303, P0304, P0305, P0306 :
• Misfire which causes catalyst to overheat during 200 engine
revolutions is detected at 1 cylinder. (MIL flashes as long as
this misfire occurs continuously.)
• Misfire which affects exhaust emission adversely during 1000
engine revolutions is detected at 1 cylinder
(2 driving cycle detection logic)
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.
Road test should be carried out with 2 persons, a driver and a tester, on a level road.
NOTE:
Check to make sure that following conditions are satisfied when using this “DTC CONFIRMATION

DTC P0340 (DTC No.42) Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunction
WIRING DIAGRAM
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
CMP sensor detects REF signal and POS signal.
• REF signal : 4 pulses/1 revolution of camshaft. There are 2 different kinds of wavelength. Based on REF sig-
nal, ECM (PCM) judges which cylinder is at TDC.
• POS signal : 6 pulse/1 revolution of camshaft. Each of POS signals has equivalent wavelength. Based on
POS signal, ECM (PCM) judges the wavelength of REF signals, engine speed and piston position.
REFERENCE
Connect oscilloscope between terminals C51-1-13 (POS) or C51-1-12 (REF) and C51-3-26 (ground) of ECM
(PCM) connector connected to ECM (PCM) and check CMP sensor signal.
