REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR
REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR
DescriptionINFOID:0000000001161987
The refrigerant pressure sensor is installed at the condenser of the air conditioner system. The sensor uses an
electrostatic volume pressure transducer to convert refrigerant pressure to voltage. The voltage signal is sent
to ECM, and ECM controls cooling fan system.

circuitWhen there is an open circuit on MI circuit, the ECM cannot warn the
driver by lighting up MI when there is malfunction on engine control
system.
Therefore, when electrical controlled throttle and part of ECM related
diagnoses are continuously detected as NG for 5 trips, ECM warns the
driver that engine control system malfunctions and MI circuit is open by
means of operating fail-safe function.
The fail-safe function also operates when above diagnoses except MI

ECM controls the electric throttle actuator by regulating the throttle opening around the
idle position. The engine speed will not rise more than 2,000 rpm.
(When throttle valve opening angle in fail-safe mode is not in specified range:)
ECM controls the electric throttle control actuator by regulating the throttle opening to 20
degrees or less.
(When ECM detects the throttle valve is stuck open:)
While the vehicle is driving, it slows down gradually by fuel cut. After the vehicle stops, the
engine stalls.
The engine can restart in Neutral position, and engine speed will not exceed 1,000 rpm or
more.

INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
- All the electrical loads are switched off.
- Air conditioning is switched off.
CAUSE
- The engine runs poorly at idle speed, possibly emits white smoke.
1.CHECK FUEL INJECTOR
Refer to EC-1141, "
Component Inspection".
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Replace malfunctioning fuel injector.
2.CHECK ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE AND FUEL TEMPERATURE
1. Start engine let it idle speed.
2. Select “DATA MONITOR” mode with CONSULT-III.
3. Check “FUEL TEMP” indication is above 60°C (140°F)
4. Check “F/FLOW CORR CYL1“, “F/FLOW CORR CYL2”, “F/FLOW CORR CYL3”, “F/FLOW CORR CYL4”
indication.
Are the reference value 0.3 - 1.9?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> GO TO 4.
3.CHECK INTERNAL FUEL TRANSFER PUMP
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect the return system connections at the fuel injectors and close off the return pipes so they are
leak-tight. While the engine is idling, check the return flow rate at the fuel injector. After 5 minutes the
return volume must be between 16 - 24 ml per fuel injector.
Is there more than 24 ml or less than 16 ml of return for each fuel injector?
Yes >> Replace malfunctioning fuel injector.
No >> INSPECTION END
4.CHECK COMPRESSION PRESSURE
Check compression pressure. Refer to EM-267, "
Inspection".

COOLING FAN CONTROL
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001162544
The cooling fan motor is controlled by the ECM.
COOLING FAN OPERATION WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING
Cooling fan operate is guaranteed by a 2-speed fan assembly (LOW speed and HIGH speed).The ECM
requests the IPDM E/R to actuate them via the can communication. To provide cooling:
Engine running
- LOW speed is actuated when the engine coolant temperature exceeds 96 °C (205°F) and is deactivated
when it drops below 94 °C (201°F).
- HIGH speed is actuated when the engine coolant temperature exceeds 104 °C (219°F) and is deactivated
when it drops below 102 °C (216°F).
If the engine coolant temperature exceeds the threshold of 115°C (239°F), the ECM requests the IPDM E/R,
via the CAN communication, to switch off the air conditioning compressor so as to reduce the load on the
engine and attempt to limit the rise in temperature. The cut-off request is cancelled if the engine coolant tem-
perature drops below 110°C (230°F).
If a malfunction in the engine coolant temperature sensor circuit is detected, the ECM requests that HIGH
speed operation.
In addition to engine management, the ECM centralises the cooling requirements for the climate control and
automatic transmission/sequential gearbox functions (where fitted).
