MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) DIAGNOSIS

TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <2.4L ENGINE>

13A-587

STEP 2. Using scan tool MB991958, check data list item 10:
Mass Airflow Sensor.
(1) Start the engine and run at idle.
(2) Set scan tool MB991958 to the data reading mode for item

10, Mass Airflow Sensor.

(3) Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature: 80

°C

to 95

°C (176°F to 203°F).

• The standard value during idling should be between

1,350 and 1,670 millivolts.

• When the engine is revved, the mass airflow rate should

increase according to the increase in engine speed.

(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the sensor operating properly?

YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Refer to, DTC P0101

− Mass Airflow Circuit

Range/Performance Problem

P.13A-121

, DTC P0102

− Mass Airflow Circuit Low Input

P.13A-127

, DTC

P0103

− Mass Airflow Circuit High Input

P.13A-134

.

STEP 3. Check the trouble symptoms.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to

Diagnostic Function

− OBD-II Drive Cycle Pattern 17

P.13A-11

.

(2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P1238 set?

YES : Replace the ECM. When the ECM is replaced,

register the ID code. Refer to GROUP 42B, Diagnosis
− ID Code Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles

with KOS>

P.42B-15

or GROUP 42C, Diagnosis

− ID

Codes Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles with
WCM>

P.42C-10

. Then go to Step 4.

NO : It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent.

Refer to GROUP 00, How to Use
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points

− How to

Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions

P.00-15

.

STEP 4. Test the OBD-II drive cycle.
(1) Carry out a test drive with the drive cycle pattern. Refer to

Diagnostic Function

− OBD-II Drive Cycle Pattern 17

P.13A-11

.

(2) Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
Q: Is DTC P1238 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO : The inspection is complete.

DTC P1240: Ignition Angle

.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

Checks for an abnormal ignition timing retard angle
demand signal from the active stability control (ASC).

.

DTC SET CONDITIONS

Check Condition

• Ignition switch is "ON" position.

Judgment Criterion

• The ignition timing retard angle demand signal is

abnormal.

.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS (The most
likely causes for this code to be set are:)

• ECM failed.

DIAGNOSIS

Required Special Tools:

• MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

• MB991824: V.C.I.

• MB991827: USB Cable

• MB991910: Main Harness A

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic
trouble code (DTC).

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Read the DTC.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the ASC-DTC set?

YES : Refer to GROUP 35C, Diagnosis

− Diagnostic

Trouble Code Chart

P.35C-18

.

NO : Replace the ECM. When the ECM is replaced,

register the ID code. Refer to GROUP 42B, Diagnosis
