GDI -Troubleshooting 13A-127
METHOD OF READING AND ERASING DIAGNOSIS
CODES
Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection
Service Points.
DIAGNOSIS USING DIAGNOSIS 2 MODE
1. Switch the diagnosis mode of the engine-A/T-ECU to
DIAGNOSIS 2 mode using the MUT-II, and then carry
out a road test.
2. Take a reading of the diagnosis code and repair the
problem location.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK (OFF) position, and
then back to ON again.
NOTE
By turning the ignition switch to the LOCK (OFF) position,
the engine-A/T-ECU will switch the DIAGNOSIS 2 mode
to DIAGNOSIS 1 mode.
4. Erase the diagnosis codes.
INSPECTION USING MUT-II
DATA LIST AND
ACTUATOR TESTING
1. Carry out inspection by means of the data list and actuator
test function. If there is an abnormality, check and repair
the chassis harnesses and components.
2. After repairing, re-check using the MUT-IIand check that
the abnormal input and output have returned to normal
as a result of the repairs.
3. Erase the diagnosis code memory.
4. Remove the MUT-II, and then start the engine again and
carry out a road test to confirm that the problem has
disappeared.

Malfunctioning item Control contents during malfunction
Accelerator pedal position sen-
sor (1st channel)1. Suspends lean burn operation.
2. Controls the throttle valve position by using signals from the accelerator pedal
position sensor (2nd channel). (However, this control is not applicable if the
voltage difference between the accelerator pedal position sensor (1st channel)
and accelerator pedal position sensor (2nd channel) is 1.0 V or higher.)
3. Also suspends the electronic-controlled throttle valve system when the
accelerator pedal position sensor (2nd channel) is defective.
Throttle position sensor (1st
channel)1. Suspends lean burn operation.
2.Controls throttle opening angle feedback by using signals from throttle position
sensor (2nd channel). (However, the controlling system is not applied when
the throttle position sensor (1st channel) and throttle position sensor (2nd
channel) combination output voltage is outside 4 - 6 V.)
3.Refrains from controlling the throttle opening angle feedback when throttle
position sensor (2nd channel) is also defective.
Electronic-controlled throttle
valve system1. Suspends the electronic controlled throttle valve system.
2. Suspends lean burn operation.
3. Suspends the idle speed feedback control.
Throttle valve position feed-
back1. Suspends the electronic controlled throttle valve system.
2. Suspends lean burn operation.
3. Suspends the engine speed feedback control.
However, if the throttle valve opening angle is significantly wide, this system carries
out the following controls.
1. Always cuts the fuel supply to three cylinders.
2. Cuts the fuel supply when the engine speed reaches 3,000 r/min or more.
Throttle control servo1. Suspends the electronic-controlled throttle valve system.
2. Suspends lean burn operation.
3. Suspends the engine speed feedback control.
Communication line between
the throttle valve controller and
the ECU1. Communication error between the throttle valve controller and the
engine-A/T-ECU:
DSuspends lean burn operation.
DCuts the fuel supply when the engine speed reaches 3,000 r/min or
more.
DSuspends the cruise-control.
2. Communication error between the throttle valve controller and the
engine-A/T-ECU:
DSuspends lean burn operation.
DCuts the fuel supply when the engine speed reaches 3,000 r/min or
more.
DSuspends the cruise-control.
DThe throttle valve controller controls the throttle valve opening angle by
using signals from accelerator pedal position sensor (2nd channel).
Throttle valve controller1. Suspends the electronic-controlled throttle valve system.
2. Suspends lean burn operation.
3. Suspends the engine speed feedback control.
NOTE
If the electronic-controlled throttle valve system is suspended, the engine warning lamp will illuminate.
