(6) Low Pressure System Pressure Test
Inspection procedure ▶
All wirings/connectors and fuel lines should
be connected and the engine should work
properly.
Prepare a special tool for low pressure test
and clean it thoroughly to prevent foreign
materials from entering. 1.
2.
Disconnect the key connector for fuel filter connection, and connect both connectors to the
fuel filter and hose. 3.
Start the engine and check visually for clogged low pressure fuel system, excessive air or air
entry.
If the fuel flow is not sufficient or air is in the fuel, repair the leak area. 4.

This is done periodically under certain operating conditions. When the resetting is finished, the
new minimum pulse value replaces the value obtained during the previous resetting. The first MDP
value is provided by the C3I. Each resetting then allows the closed loop of the MDP to be updated
according to the deviation of the injector.
B. Detection of leaks in the cylinders
The accelerometer is also used to detect any injector which may have stuck open. The detection
principle is based on monitoring the ratio. If there is a leak in the cylinder, the accumulated fuel
self-ignites as soon as the temperature and pressure conditions are favorable (high engine
speed, high load and small leak).
This combustion is set off at about 20 degrees before TDC and before main injection.
The ratio therefore increases considerably in the detection window. It is this increase which allows
the leaks to be detected. The threshold beyond which a fault is signaled is a percentage of the
maximum possible value of the ratio.
Because of the severity of the recovery process (engine shut-down), the etection must be
extremely robust.
An increase in the ratio can be the consequence of various causes:
Pilot injection too much
Main combustion offset
Fuel leak in the cylinder -
-
-
If the ratio becomes too high, the strategy initially restricts the pilot injection flow and retards the
main injection. If the ratio remains high despite these interventions, this shows that a real leak is
present, a fault is signaled and the engine is shut down.
C. Detection of an accelerometer fault
This strategy permits the detection of a fault in the sensor or in the wiring loom connecting the
sensor to the ECU.
It is based on detection of the combustion. When the engine is idling, the detection window is set
too low for the combustion caused by the main injection. If the ratio increases, this shows that the
knock sensor is working properly, but otherwise a fault is signaled to indicate a sensor failure.
The recovery modes associated with this fault consist of inhibition of the pilot injection and
discharge through the injectors.

9) Starting System
The engine electrical system includes the battery, the ignition, the starter, the generator, and all
the related wiring.
Diagnostic tables will aid in troubleshooting system faults. When a fault is traced to a particular
component, refer to that component section of the service manual.
The starting system circuit consists of the battery, the starter motor, the ignition switch, and all the
related electrical wiring.
All of these components are connected electrically.

3) Fuel Level Gauge
The fuel level gauge displays the resistance value of the float on the fuel sender in the fuel tank
through a pointer. Note that this vehicle doesn't have a service hole for checking the fuel sender
connector in the fuel tank.
The fuel sender and its connector can be checked and replaced only when the fuel tank is
removed. The power supply and resistance value should be measured at the connector in front of
the fuel sender (refer to wiring diagram).
When the power supply and output resistance are normal, the float operation by fuel level may be
defective; if so, replace the fuel sender.
Low fuel warning lamp comes on when:
The fuel level drops to 9 L or less. The lamp goes off if the fuel level reaches 9.5 L or more.This table shows the tolerance and resistance value changes by fuel level in normal
conditions. Therefore, the differences that can be occurred by the road conditions and fuel
fluctuations are ignored.
