6E-272 Engine Control System (4JH1)
Checks Action
Air Intake System Checks Inspect the air intake system for the following conditions.
• Inspect the air cleaner and air intake ducts for a restriction, holes, or leaks.
• Inspect for a restriction or leak in the intercooler.
• Inspect for a restriction in the turbocharger inlet duct.
• Inspect for a restriction or deposit in the intake throttle bore.
• Inspect for a restriction or leak in the intake manifold.
• Inspect for a restriction or damage at MAF sensor.
Exhaust System Checks Inspect the exhaust system for a possible restriction. Refer to the Exhaust System
section.
• Inspect for a restriction in the catalytic converter or exhaust pipes.
Engine Mechanical Checks Inspect the engine mechanical for the following conditions. Refer to the Engine
Mechanical section.
• Inspect for poor cylinder compression. Proper compression is more than 2100 kPa
(309 psi).


Excessive Smoke (Black Smoke)
Checks Action
DEFINITION:Black smoke under load, idle or start up hot or cold.
Preliminary Check •
Ensure the vehicle has an actual problem.
• Inspect the engine control module (ECM) and fuel injection pump control unit (PCU)
grounds for being clean, tight, and in their proper locations.
• Remove the air cleaner and check for dirt, or for air ducts being plugged or
restricted. Replace as necessary.
• Inspect the fuel quality (cetane index).
• Inspect the engine oil level and quality.
• Inspect the Service Bulletins for ECM software updates.
Sensor Checks Inspect the engine control sensors for the following conditions. Refer to the scan tool
Data List in this section.
• Use the scan tool to compare the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) with the Intake
Air Temperature (IAT) and Fuel Temperature (FT) on a cold engine condition. If the
difference among temperature reading is more than 5°C (9°F) on a cold engine,
check for high resistance on the low reference circuit and signal circuit or for a
skewed sensor.
Notice: The mass air flow (MAF) sensor is heated and as a result the IAT sensor may
indicate a higher than normal intake air temperature if the ignition switch is being ON.
FT sensor is internal to the PCU and it is part of the fuel injection pump assembly.
• Use the scan tool to compare the MAF Sensor parameter with the Desired MAF
parameter. Start the engine and warm up (allow engine coolant temperature to reach
at least 60°C [140°F]). The MAF Sensor parameter must follow the Desired MAF
parameter within 100 mg/strk. If not, inspect the air intake system, EGR system
components and contaminated, skewed or slow MAF sensor.
• Use the scan tool to observe the Accelerator Pedal Position Accelerator Pedal
Position. Accelerator Pedal Position indicating angle parameter should change
linearly from 0% to 100% according to the accelerator pedal operation.
Fuel System Checks Inspect the fuel system for the following conditions. Refer to the Fuel System section.
• Inspect the fuel injection nozzle(s) for proper splay condition or operating pressure.
Notice: Only first stage of operating pressure can be checked.
• Inspect the timing device operating correctly. Observe the Actual Injection Timing
parameter with the scan tool while running the engine. The Actual Injection Timing
parameter must follow the Desired Injection Timing within 2°CA on each engine
speed. Engine idle > around 2000 RPM> around 3000 RPM. If not, inspect the fuel
system restriction, air in the fuel or fuel injection pump operation.

ENGINE COOLING (4JK1/4JJ1) 6B-7
Draining and Refilling Cooling System
Before draining the cooling system, inspect the system
and perform any necessary service to ensure that it is
clean, does not leak and is in proper working order.
The engine coolant (EC) level should be between the
“MIN" and “MAX" lines of the reserve tank when the
engine is cold. If low, check for leakage and add EC up
to the “MAX" line.
There should not be any excessive deposit of rust o
r
scales around the radiator cap or radiator filler hole, and
the EC should also be free from oil.
Replace the EC if excessively dirty.

1. Remove the radiator skid plate.
2. Completely drain the cooling system by opening the drain plug at the bottom of the radiator.




RTW 56BSH000301
3. Remove the radiator cap.
WARNING:
To avoid the danger of being burned, do not
remove the cap while the engine and radiator are
still hot. Scalding fluid and steam can be blown out
under pressure.
4. Disconnect all hoses from the EC reserve tank.
Scrub and clean the inside of the reserve tank with soap and water. Flush it well with clean water,
then drain it. Install the reserve tank and hoses.

5. Refill the cooling system with the EC using a
solution that is at least 50 percent antifreeze.

Procedure for filling with coolant (in case of full change).
• Make sure that the engine is cool.
• Open radiator cap and pour coolant up to fille
r
neck.
• Pour coolant into reservoir tank up to “MAX" line.
• Tighten radiator cap and start the engine. Afte
r
idling for 2 to 3 minutes, stop the engine and
reopen the radiator cap. If the water level is lower,
replenish.
WARNING:
When the coolant is heated to a high temperature,
be sure not to loosen or remove the radiator cap.
Otherwise you might get scalded by hot vapor o
r
boiling water. To open the radiator cap, put a piece
of thick cloth on the cap and loosen the cap slowly
to reduce the pressure when the coolant has
become cooler.
• After tightening the radiator cap, warm up the
engine at about 2000 rpm. Set heater adjustment
to the highest temperature position, and let the
coolant circulate also into heater water system.
• Check to see the thermostat has opened through
the needle position of the water thermometer,
conduct a 5–minute idling again and stop the
engine.
• W hen the engine has been cooled, check fille
r
neck for water level and replenish if required.
Should extreme shortage of coolant be found,
check the cooling system and reservoir tank hose
for leakage.
• Pour coolant into the reservoir tank up to “MAX"
line.

6E-110 ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM (4JK1/4JJ1)
DTC P0116 (Flash Code 23)
Circuit Description
The engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor is
installed to the thermostat housing. The ECT sensor is
a variable resistor and it measures the temperature of
the engine coolant. If the ECM detects that the
difference of engine coolant temperature is smaller
than the calculated range during the predetermined
conditions, this DTC will set. This DTC will only run
once per ignition cycle within the enabling condition.
Condition for Running the DTC • DTCs P0117, P0118, P0201 - P0204, P0500, P0501 P124B, P1261, P1262 and P2146 - P2151
are not set.
• The ignition switch is ON.
• The engine coolant temperature is between -10 to 11 0 °C (14 to 230 °F).
• The vehicle run time is longer than 18 minutes.
• The engine run time is longer than 5 minutes with engine speed is more than 1200 RPM.
• The accumulation fuel injection quantity since engine start is more than a threshold.
Condition for Setting the DTC • The ECM detects that the difference of maximum and minimum engine coolant temperature is less
than 5 °C (9 °F). Action Taken When the DTC Sets
• The ECM illuminates the MIL when the diagnostic runs and fails. Refer to DTC Type Definitions for
Action Taken When the DTC Sets - Type A.
• The ECM limits fuel injection quantity.
• The ECM inhibits EGR control.
• The ECM inhibits cruise control.
Condition for Clearing the DTC • Refer to DTC Type Definitions for Condition for Clearing the MIL/ DTC - Type A.
Diagnostic Aids • After starting the engine the ECT should rise steadily to about 80 to 85 °C (176 to 185 °F) then
stabilize when the thermostat opens.
• Use the Temperature vs. Resistance table to test the ECT sensor at various temperature levels to
evaluate the possibility of a skewed sensor. A
skewed sensor could result in poor driveability
concerns.
