STEP 5. Check harness between A-143 (terminal
No. 1) fuel filter pressure switch connector and
C-103 (terminal No. 110) engine-ECU connector.

• Check output line for open/short circuit.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 6 .

NO :

Repair the damaged harness wire.

STEP 6. M.U.T.-III data list

• Refer to Data List Reference Table

YES :

Go to Step 9 .

NO :

Repair or replace the connector.

STEP 9. Check harness between A-143 (terminal
No. 1) fuel filter pressure switch connector and

Code No. P1277: Fuel Filter Freeze <Vehicles with fuel filter pressure switch>

FUNCTION

• The engine-ECU estimates that the fuel filter is

freezing, using the input signal from the each
sensor.

• When storing this diagnosis code, the engine-

ECU blinks the glow lamp.

TROUBLE JUDGMENT

Check Conditions

• During steady driving

• Fuel temperature is lower than specified temper-

ature

• Engine coolant temperature is lower than speci-

fied temperature

TROUBLESHOOTING

DIESEL FUEL

13A-307

Judgment Criteria

• Determination of clogged fuel filter

• Fuel pressure hunting occurs more than certain

degree, or difference more than certain degree
exists between target fuel pressure and actual
fuel pressure

PROBABLE CAUSE

• Fuel filter Freezing

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Reconfirmation of M.U.T.-III diagnosis
code after warming up the engine

Q: Is any other diagnosis code than P1276 output?

YES :

Inspection chart for diagnosis code (Refer

to ).

NO :

Check end.

Code No. P1298: Variable Geometry Turbocharger Control System Malfunction (high pressure)
<Euro5>

FUNCTION

• The engine-ECU controls the duty ratio of the

variable geometry control solenoid valve so that
the actual boost pressure can become the target
boost pressure.

TROUBLE JUDGMENT

Check Condition

• Engine is running

Judgment Criterion

• Actual boost pressure is higher than target boost

pressure by more than 6.7 kPa

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Failed variable geometry turbocharger control

system

• Failed engine-ECU

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

STEP 1. Check the turbocharger supercharging
pressure.

• Check the turbocharger supercharging pressure

(refer to GROUP 15

− On-vehicle Service − Tur-

bocharger Supercharging Pressure Check ).

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 2 .

NO :

Repair the variable geometry turbocharger
control system.

STEP 2. M.U.T.-III diagnosis code.

• After clearing the diagnosis code through M.U.T.-

III, start the engine and confirm whether the diag-
nosis code is output.

Q: Is the diagnosis code set?

YES :

Replace the engine-ECU. When the engine-

ECU is replaced, write the chassis number
(Refer to GROUP 00

− Precautions Before

Service

− How to Perform Chassis Number

Writing ). After replacing the engine-ECU,
register the injector identification code and
learn fuel injection (Refer to GROUP 00

−

Precautions Before Service

− What The

Common Rail Engine Learns ). After
registering the injector identification code,
carry out the forcible DPF regeneration.
(Refer to GROUP 17

− Emission Control −

Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) System

−

Forcible DPF Regeneration ).

NO :

Intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP
00

− How to Use Troubleshooting/

Inspection Service Points

− How to Cope

with Intermittent Malfunctions ).

Code No. P1299: Variable Geometry Turbocharger Control System Malfunction (low pressure)
<Euro5>

FUNCTION

• The engine-ECU controls the duty ratio of the

variable geometry control solenoid valve so that
the actual boost pressure can become the target
boost pressure.

TROUBLE JUDGMENT

Check Condition

• Engine is running
