POSITIVE CRANKCASE VENTILATION
DescriptionINFOID:0000000001326507
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
This system returns blow-by gas to the intake manifold.
The positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve is pr
ovided to conductcrankcase blow-by gas to the intake
manifold.
During partial throttle operation of the engine, the intake manifoldsucks the blow-by gas through the PCV
valve.
Normally, the capacity of the valv e is sufficient to handle any blow-b yand a small amount of ventilating air.
The ventilating air is then drawn from the air inlet tubes into thecrankcase. In this process the air passes
through the hose connecting airinlet tubes to rocker cover.
Under full-throttle condition, the manifold vacuum is insu fficient todraw the blow-by flow through the valve. The
flow goes through the hose connectionin the reverse direction.
On vehicles with an excessively high blow-by, the valve does not
meetthe requirement. This is because some of the flow will go
through the hoseconnection to the air inlet tubes under all condi-
tions.

POSITIVE CRANKCASE VENTILATION
With engine running at idle, remove PCV valve from rocker cover. A
properly working valve makes a hissing noise as air passes through
it. A strong vacuum should be felt immediately when a finger is
placed over valve inlet.
PCV VALVE VENTILATION HOSE
1. Check hoses and hose connections for leaks.
2. Disconnect all hoses and clean with compressed air. If any
hosecannot be freed of obstructions, replace.

If the security indicator lights up with the ignition switch in the ON position or “NATS MALFUNC-
TION” is displayed on “SELF-DIAG RESULTS” screen, perform self-diagnostic results mode with
CONSULT-III using NATS program card. Refer to BL-185
.
Confirm no self-diagnostic results of IVIS (NATS) is displayed before touching “ERASE” in “SELF-
DIAG RESULTS” mode with CONSULT-III.
When replacing ECM, initialization of IVIS (NATS) system and registration of all IVIS (NATS) ignition
key IDs must be carried out with CO NSULT-III using NATS program card.
Therefore, be sure to receive all keys from vehicle owner. Regarding the procedures of IVIS (NATS)
initialization and all IVIS (NATS) ignition key ID registration, refer to CONSULT-III operation manual,
IVIS/NVIS.

IntroductionINFOID:0000000001326510
The ECM has an on board diagnostic system, which detects malfunctions related to engine sensors or actua-
tors. The ECM also records various emission-related diagnostic information including:
The above information can be checked usi ng procedures listed in the table below.
×: Applicable —: Not applicable
*: When DTC and 1st trip DTC simultaneously appear on the display, they cannot be clearly distinguished from each other.
The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on the instrument panel lights up when the same malfunction is detected
in two consecutive trips (Two trip detection logic) , or when the ECM enters fail-safe mode. (Refer to EC-671,
"Fail-Safe Chart".)
Two Trip Detection LogicINFOID:0000000001326511
When a malfunction is detected for the first time, 1st tr ip DTC and 1st trip Freeze Frame data are stored in the
ECM memory. The MIL will not light up at this stage. <1st trip>
If the same malfunction is detected again during the next drive, the DTC and Freeze Frame data are stored in
the ECM memory, and the MIL lights up. The MIL lights up at the same time when the DTC is stored. <2nd
trip> The “trip” in the “Two Trip Detection Logic” m eans a driving mode in which self-diagnosis is performed
during vehicle operation. Specific on board diagnostic item s will cause the ECM to light up or blink the MIL,
and store DTC and Freeze Frame data, even in the 1st trip, as shown below.
× : Applicable —: Not applicable
When there is an open circuit on MIL circuit, the ECM c annot warn the driver by lighting up MIL when there is
malfunction on engine control system.
