DTC P0300 Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected
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 P0325 Knock Sensor 1 Circuit Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
A knock sensor is fitted to the cylinder block to detect engine knocking. This sensor contains a piezoelectric
element which generates a voltage when it becomes deformed, which occurs when the cylinder block vi-
brates due to knocking. If engine knocking occurs, ignition timing is retarded to suppress it.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Check continuity between terminal KNK of ECM connector and body ground.
PREPARATION:
(a) Remove the lower finish panel.
(b) Disconnect the E7 connector of ECM.
CHECK:
Measure the resistance between terminal KNK of the ECM con-
nector and the body ground.
OK:
Resistance: 1 MW or higher
OK Go to step 3.
2 Check knock sensor (See page MF-50).
NG Replace knock sensor.
OK
3 Check for open and short in harness and connector between ECM and knock
sensor (See page IN-26).
NG Repair or replace harness or connector.
OK
4 Does malfunction disappear when a good knock sensor is installed?
YES Replace knock sensor.
NO
Check and replace ECM (See page IN-26).

DTC P0335 Crankshaft Position Sensor ºAº Circuit
Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Crankshaft position sensor (NE signal) consists of a signal plate and pickup coil.
The NE signal plate has 34 teeth and is mounted on the crankshaft. The NE signal sensor generates 34
signals of every engine revolution. The ECM detects the standard crankshaft angle based on the G signals,
and the actual crankshaft angle and the engine speed by the NE signals.

DTC P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit
Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Camshaft position sensor (G signal) consist of signal plate and pickup coil.
The G signal plate has one tooth on its outer circumference and is mounted on the exhaust camshaft.
When the camshafts rotate, the protrusion on the signal plate and the air gap on the pickup coil change,
causing fluctuations in the magnetic field and generating an electromotive force in the pickup coil.
The NE signal plate has 34 teeth and is mounted on the crankshaft. The NE signal sensor generates 34
signals for every engine revolution. The ECM detects the standard crankshaft angle based on the G signals
and the actual crankshaft angle and the engine speed by the NE signals.

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.

Engine racing.

pressure is larger than the value calculated by the ECM while
