DESCRIPTION
When the engine misfires, high concentrations of hydrocarbons (HC) enter the exhaust gas. Extremely high hydrocarbon concentration levels can cause an increase in exhaust emission levels. Extremely high concentrations of hydrocarbons can also cause increases in the three-way catalytic converter temperature, which may cause damage to the three-way catalytic converter. To prevent this increase in emissions and to limit the possibility of thermal damage, the ECM monitors the misfire count. When the temperature of the three-way catalytic converter reaches the point of thermal degradation, the ECM blinks the MIL. To monitor misfires, the ECM uses both the camshaft position sensor and the crankshaft position sensor. The camshaft position sensor is used to identify any misfiring cylinders and the crankshaft position sensor is used to measure variations in the crankshaft rotation speed. Misfires are counted when the crankshaft rotation speed variations exceed predetermined thresholds. If the misfire count exceeds the threshold levels, and could cause emission control system performance deterioration, the ECM illuminates the MIL and sets a DTC.
DTC No. |
DTC Detection Condition |
Trouble Area |
---|---|---|
P0300 |
Simultaneous misfiring of several cylinders occurs and one of the following conditions is met (2 trip detection logic).
|
|
P0301 P0302 P0303 P0304 |
Misfiring of a specific cylinder occurs and one of the following conditions is met (2 trip detection logic).
|
When DTCs for misfiring cylinders are randomly stored, but DTC P0300 is not stored, it indicates that misfires have been detected in different cylinders at different times. DTC P0300 is only stored when several misfiring cylinders are detected at the same time.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC immediately when either one of the following conditions, which could cause emission deterioration, is detected (2 trip detection logic).
The ECM flashes the MIL (immediately detection logic) and stores a DTC (2 trip detection logic) when either one of the following conditions, which could cause damage to the three-way catalytic converter, is detected.
HINT:
If a catalyst-damaging misfire occurs, the monitor informs the driver by blinking the MIL.
The ECM illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC when either one of the following conditions, which could cause emission deterioration, is detected (2 trip detection logic).

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

If the elapsed time is over 0 seconds, then the engine speed is high (engine speed at which fuel cut occurs + 500 rpm).
When this has happened, there is the possibility that the No. 1 valve rocker arm sub-assembly will become loose and a fire could start, so check that the valve rocker arm is properly attached (See page ).
