DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE WITH DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC)

Step

Value

Yes

No

1

CHECK INPUT SIGNAL TO ECM.
1) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2) Measure the voltage between ECM and

chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(B136) No. 3 (+) — Chassis ground (

−−−−

):

Does the measured value exceed the spec-
ified value?

10 V

Go to step 3.

Go to step 2.

2

CHECK POOR CONTACT.
Check poor contact in ECM connector.
Is there poor contact in ECM connector?

There is poor contact.

Repair the poor
contact in ECM
connector.

Replace the ECM.
<Ref. to
FU(H4DOSTC)-
40, Engine Con-
trol Module.>

3

CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN EXHAUST
VALVE CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE (NEG-
ATIVE PRESSURE) AND ECM CONNEC-
TOR.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect the connector from exhaust

valve control solenoid valve (negative pres-
sure).

3) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
4) Measure the voltage between ECM and

chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(B136) No. 3 (+) — Chassis ground (

−−−−

):

Does the measured value exceed the spec-
ified value?

10 V

Repair the battery
short circuit in har-
ness between
ECM and exhaust
valve control sole-
noid valve (nega-
tive pressure)
connector. After
repair, replace the
ECM. <Ref. to
FU(H4DOSTC)-
40, Engine Con-
trol Module.>

Go to step 4.

4

CHECK EXHAUST VALVE CONTROL SOLE-
NOID VALVE (NEGATIVE PRESSURE).
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Measure the resistance between exhaust

valve control solenoid valve (negative pres-
sure) terminals.

Terminals

No. 5 — No. 6:

Is the measured value less than the speci-
fied value?

1

Ω

Replace the
exhaust valve con-
trol solenoid valve
(negative pres-
sure) <Ref. to
IN(H4DOSTC)-19,
Solenoid Box
Assembly.> and
ECM <Ref. to
FU(H4DOSTC)-
40, Engine Con-
trol Module.>

Go to step 5.

5

CHECK POOR CONTACT.
Check poor contact in ECM and exhaust valve
control solenoid valve (negative pressure) con-
nectors.
Are there poor contact in ECM and exhaust
valve control solenoid valve (negative pres-
sure) connectors?

There are poor contacts.

Repair the poor
contact in ECM
connector.

Replace the ECM.

FU(H4DOSTC)-
40, Engine Con-
trol Module.>

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE WITH DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC)

BD:DTC P1241 — 2STAGE TWIN TURBO SYSTEM (SINGLE) —

• TROUBLE SYMPTOM:

• Poor driving performance

CAUTION:
After repair or replacement of faulty parts, conduct Clear Memory Mode <Ref. to EN(H4DOSTC)-35,
OPERATION, Clear Memory Mode.> and Inspection Mode <Ref. to EN(H4DOSTC)-33, Inspection
Mode.> .

Step

Value

Yes

No

1

CHECK ANY OTHER DTC ON DISPLAY.
Is any other DTC displayed?

DTC indicated.

Inspect the rele-
vant DTC using
“List of Diagnostic
Trouble Code
(DTC)”. <Ref. to
EN(H4DOSTC)-
62, List of Diag-
nostic Trouble
Code (DTC).>

Go to step 2.

2

CHECK OPERATION OF RELIEF VALVE
CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE 2.
Operate the relief valve control solenoid valve
2. <Ref. to EN(H4DOSTC)-36, Compulsory
Valve Operation Check Mode.>
Does the relief valve control solenoid valve 2
produce operating sound?

Operating sound produced.

Go to step 3.

Replace the relief
valve control sole-
noid valve 2. <Ref.
to IN(H4DOSTC)-
19, Solenoid Box
Assembly.>

3

CHECK OPERATION OF EXHAUST CON-
TROL VALVE.
1) Operate the exhaust valve control solenoid

valve. <Ref. to EN(H4DOSTC)-36, Compul-
sory Valve Operation Check Mode.>

2) Check the operation of exhaust control

valve actuator.
Does the actuator rod operate correctly?.

NOTE:

Actuator rod operates in approx. 7 second cy-
cle, and stroke is approx. 30 mm (1.18 in).

Operates correctly.

Go to step 4.

Check the exhaust
valve control sole-
noid valve and
vacuum hose.
<Ref. to
IN(H4DOSTC)-19,
Solenoid Box
Assembly.>

4

CHECK OPERATION OF INTAKE AIR CON-
TROL VALVE.
1) Operate the intake air valve control sole-

noid valve. <Ref. to EN(H4DOSTC)-36,
Compulsory Valve Operation Check
Mode.>

2) Check the operation of intake air control

valve actuator.
Does the actuator rod operate correctly?

NOTE:

Actuator rod operates in approx. 2 second cy-
cle, and stroke is approx. 12 mm (0.47 in).

Operates correctly.

Go to step 5.

Check the intake
air control solenoid
valve and vacuum
hose. <Ref. to
IN(H4DOSTC)-19,
Solenoid Box
Assembly.>

5
