Trouble Diagnosis Introduction
INFOID:0000000004297234
INTRODUCTION
The engine has an ECM to control major systems such as fuel con-
trol, ignition control, idle air control system, etc. The ECM accepts
input signals from sensors and instantly drives actuators. It is essen-
tial that both input and output signals are proper and stable. At the
same time, it is important that there are no malfunctions such as vac-
uum leaks, fouled spark plugs, or other malfunctions with the engine.
It is much more difficult to diagnose an incident that occurs intermit-
tently rather than continuously. Most intermittent incidents are
caused by poor electric connections or improper wiring. In this case,
careful checking of suspected circuits may help prevent the replace-
ment of good parts.
A visual check only may not find the cause of the incidents. A road
test with CONSULT-III (or GST) or a circuit tester connected should
be performed. Follow the Work Flow on "Work Flow".
Before undertaking actual checks, take a few minutes to talk with a
customer who approaches with a driveability complaint. The cus-
tomer can supply good information about such incidents, especially
intermittent ones. Find out what symptoms are present and under
what conditions they occur. A Diagnostic Worksheet like the example
on "Worksheet Sample" should be used.
Start your diagnosis by looking for conventional malfunctions first.
This will help troubleshoot driveability malfunctions on an electroni-
cally controlled engine vehicle.

1.
Check DTC*

.
2.
Perform the following procedure if DTC*
1
is displayed.
-
Record DTC*
1
and freeze frame data*
2
. (Print them out with CONSULT-III or GST.)
-
Erase DTC*
1
. (Refer to
.)
-
Study the relationship between the cause detected by DTC*
1
and the symptom described by the cus-
tomer. (Symptom Matrix Chart is useful. Refer to
.)
3.
Check related service bulletins for information.
Are any symptoms described and any DTCs detected?

3.
CONFIRM THE SYMPTOM
Try to confirm the symptom described by the customer (except MIL ON).
DIAGNOSIS WORK SHEET is useful to verify the incident.
Connect CONSULT-III to the vehicle and check diagnosis results.
Verify relation between the symptom and the condition when the symptom is detected.
>> GO TO 5.
4.
CONFIRM THE SYMPTOM
Try to confirm the symptom described by the customer.
DIAGNOSIS WORK SHEET is useful to verify the incident.
Connect CONSULT-III to the vehicle and check diagnosis results.
Verify relation between the symptom and the condition when the symptom is detected.
>> GO TO 6.
5.
PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
Perform DTC Confirmation Procedure for the displayed DTC*
1
, and then make sure that DTC*
1
is detected
again.
If two or more DTCs*
1
are detected, refer to
EC-455, "DTC Inspection Priority Chart"
diagnosis order.
NOTE:
• Freeze frame data*
2
is useful if the DTC*
1
is not detected.
• Perform Overall Function Check if DTC Confirmation Procedure is not included on Instruction. This
simplified check procedure is an effective alternative though DTC*
1
cannot be detected during this check.
If the result of Overall Function Check is NG, it is the same as the detection of DTC*
1
by DTC Confirmation
Procedure.
Is DTC*
1
detected?
Yes
>> GO TO 10.
No
>> Check according to

DIAGNOSTIC WORKSHEET
Description
2009 Pathfinder
EC-18

[VQ40DE]
DIAGNOSIS AND REPAIR WORKFLOW
There are many operating conditions that lead to the malfunction of
engine components. A good grasp of such conditions can make trou-
bleshooting faster and more accurate.
In general, each customer feels differently about symptoms. It is
important to fully understand the symptoms or conditions for a cus-
tomer complaint.
Utilize a diagnostic worksheet like the one on the next page in order
to organize all the information for troubleshooting.
Some conditions may cause the MIL to illuminate or blink and DTC
to be detected. Examples:
• Vehicle ran out of fuel, which caused the engine to misfire.
• Fuel filler cap was left off or incorrectly screwed on, allowing fuel to
evaporate into the atmosphere.
