P1212 TCS COMMUNICATION LINE

Description

INFOID:0000000004362239

This CAN communication line is used to control the smooth engine operation during the TCS operation. Pulse

signals are exchanged between ECM and “ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit)”.

Be sure to erase the malfunction information such as DTC not only for “ABS actuator and electric unit

(control unit)” but also for ECM after TCS related repair.

DTC Logic

INFOID:0000000004362240

DTC DETECTION LOGIC

NOTE:

• If DTC P1212 is displayed with DTC UXXXX, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC UXXXX.

Refer to

EC-1179, "DTC Logic"

.

• If DTC P1212 is displayed with DTC P0607, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0607. Refer

to

EC-1378, "DTC Logic"

.

Freeze frame data is not stored in the ECM for this self-diagnosis.

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1.

PRECONDITIONING

If DTC Confirmation Procedure has been previously conducted, always perform the following before conduct-

ing the next test

1. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

2. Turn ignition switch ON.

3. Turn ignition switch OFF and wait at least 10 seconds.

TESTING CONDITION:

Before performing the following procedure, confirm that battery voltage is more than 10.5 V at idle.

>> GO TO 2.

2.

PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1. Start engine and let it idle for at least 10 seconds.

2. Check 1st trip DTC.
Is 1st trip DTC detected?

YES

>> Go to

EC-1387, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

NO

>> INSPECTION END

Diagnosis Procedure

DTC detecting condition

Possible cause

P1212

TCS communication line

ECM cannot receive the information from
“ABS actuator and electric unit (control
unit)” continuously.

• Harness or connectors

(The CAN communication line is open or shorted.)

P1217 ENGINE OVER TEMPERATURE

DTC Logic

INFOID:0000000004362242

DTC DETECTION LOGIC

NOTE:

• If DTC P1217 is displayed with DTC UXXXX, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC UXXXX.

Refer to

EC-1179, "DTC Logic"

.

• If DTC P1217 is displayed with DTC P0607, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0607. Refer

to

EC-1378, "DTC Logic"

.

If the cooling fan or another component in the cooling system malfunctions, engine coolant temperature will

rise.

When the engine coolant temperature reaches an abnormally high temperature condition, a malfunction is

indicated.

CAUTION:

When a malfunction is indicated, always replace the coolant. Refer to

CO-34, "System Inspection"

.

Also, replace the engine oil. Refer to

LU-23, "Inspection"

.

1. Fill radiator with coolant up to specified level with a filling speed of 2 liters per minute. Always use

coolant with the proper mixture ratio. Refer to

MA-12, "Fluids and Lubricants"

.

2. After refilling coolant, run engine to ensure that no water-flow noise is emitted.

DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1.

PERFORM COMPONENT FUNCTION CHECK

Perform component function check. Refer to

EC-1388, "Component Function Check"

.

NOTE:

Use component function check to check the overall function of the cooling fan. During this check, a DTC might

not be confirmed.
Is the inspection result normal?

YES

>> INSPECTION END

NO

>> Go to

EC-1389, "Diagnosis Procedure"

.

Component Function Check

INFOID:0000000004362243

1.

PERFORM COMPONENT FUNCTION CHECK-I

WARNING:

Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could be caused by high pres-

sure fluid escaping from the radiator.

Wrap a thick cloth around cap. Carefully remove the cap by turning it a quarter turn to allow built-up

pressure to escape. Then turn the cap all the way off.

DTC No.
