DTC P0105 Manifold Absolute Pressure/Barometric
Pressure Circuit Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
By a built-in sensor unit, the manifold absolute pressure sensor
detects the intake manifold pressure as a voltage. The ECM
then determines the basic injection duration and basic injection
advance angle based on this voltage. Since the manifold abso-
lute pressure sensor does not use the atmospheric pressure as
a criterion, but senses the absolute pressure inside the intake
manifold (the pressure in proportion to the present absolute
vacuum 0), it is not influenced by fluctuations in the atmospheric
pressure due to high altitude and other factors. This permits it
to control the air-fuel ratio at the proper lever under all condi-
tions.

ECM
If the ECM detects DTC P0105, it operates the fail-safe function, keeping the ignition timing and injection
volume constant and making it possible to drive the vehicle.
HINT:
After confirming DTC P0105, use the OBDII scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held tester to confirm the manifold
absolute pressure from the CURRENT DATA.

DTC P0171 System too Lean (Fuel Trim)
DTC P0172 System too Rich (Fuel Trim)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
ºFuelº trim refers to the feedback compensation value compared against the basic injection time. Fuel trim
includes short-term fuel trim and long-term fuel trim.
ºShort-term fuel trimº is the short-term fuel compensation used to maintain the air-fuel ratio at its ideal
theoretical value. The signal from the oxygen sensor indicates whether the air-fuel ratio is RICH or LEAN
compared to the ideal theoretical value, triggering a reduction in fuel volume if the air-fuel ratio is rich, and
an increase in fuel volume if it is lean.
ºLong-term fuel trimº is overall fuel compensation carried out long-term to compensate for continual devi-
ation of the short-term fuel trim form the central value due to individual engine differences, wear over time
and changes in the usage environment.
If both the short-term fuel trim and long-term fuel trim are LEAN or RICH beyond a certain value, it is de-
tected as a malfunction and the MIL lights up.

HINT:

When DTC P0171 is recorded, the actual air-fuel ratio is on the LEAN side. When DTC P0172 is re-
corded, the actual air-fuel ratio is on the RICH side.

If the total of the short-term fuel trim value and long-term fuel trim value is within + 25 %, the system
is functioning normally.

If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the air-fuel ratio is LEAN and DTC P0171 is recorded. The MIL then
comes on.

DTC P0301 Cylinder 1 Misfire Detected
DTC P0302 Cylinder 2 Misfire Detected
DTC P0303 Cylinder 3 Misfire Detected
DTC P0304 Cylinder 4 Misfire Detected
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Misfire: The ECM uses the crankshaft position sensor and camshaft position sensor to monitor changes in
the crankshaft rotation for each cylinder.
The ECM counts the number of times the engine speed change rate indicates that misfire has occurred. And
when the misfire rate equals or exceeds the count indicating that the engine condition has deteriorated, the
MIL lights up.
If the misfire rate is high enough and the driving conditions will cause catalyst overheating, the MIL blinks
when misfiring occurs.

DTC P0401 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Flow Insufficient
Detected
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The EGR system recirculates exhaust gas, which is controlled to the proper quantity to suit the driving condi-
tions, into the intake air mixture to slow down combustion, reduce the combustion temp. and reduce NOx
emissions. The amount of EGR is regulated by the EGR vacuum modulator according to the engine load.
If even one of the following conditions is fulfilled, the VSV is
turned OFF by a signal from the ECM.
This results in atmospheric air acting on the EGR valve, closing
the EGR valve and shutting off the exhaust gas (EGR cut-off).

Before the engine is warmed up.

During deceleration (throttle valve closed).

Light engine load (amount of intake air very small).

Engine speed over 4,400 rpm.
