MONITOR DESCRIPTION

Fuel System Air Fuel Ratio Cylinder Imbalance Monitor

The ECM uses the air fuel ratio sensor and crankshaft position sensor to monitor the difference in air fuel ratios between the cylinders caused by differences in injection volumes between the cylinders, leakage in the intake or exhaust system, etc.

When the air fuel ratios of the cylinders are lean or rich with respect to each other, the ECM determines that there is a malfunction, illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC.

Air Fuel Ratio Sensor Monitoring Method: P11EA00 and/or P11EB00 (for port injection), or P219A00 and/or P219B00 (for direct injection) are stored primarily when a rich side imbalance is detected.

When the system detects a difference in air fuel ratios between the cylinders due to fluctuation in the air fuel ratio sensor output over 1 engine cycle (2 crankshaft revolutions), the system determines that there is a problem.

Crankshaft Position Sensor Monitoring Method: P11EC00, P11ED00, P11EE00, P11EF00, P11F000 and/or P11F100 (for port injection), or P219C00, P219D00, P219E00, P219F00, P21A000 and/or P21A100 (for direct injection) are stored primarily when a lean side imbalance is detected.

The system monitors the engine speed variation and when the variation becomes large, the system determines that there is a difference in air fuel ratios between the cylinders, which it determines to be a problem.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

HINT:

Bank 1 refers to the bank that includes the No. 1 cylinder*.
*: The No. 1 cylinder is the cylinder which is farthest from the transaxle.
Bank 2 refers to the bank that does not include the No. 1 cylinder.
Sensor 1 refers to the sensor closest to the engine assembly.
Sensor 2 refers to the sensor farthest away from the engine assembly.
When any air-fuel ratio imbalance is detected, the ECM will perform air-fuel ratio feedback control to make the air-fuel ratio close to the stoichiometric level. This may result in an air-fuel ratio imbalance of normal cylinders and DTCs may be stored.
Whether malfunctions occur on the port injection side or direct injection side cannot be determined solely by the output DTCs. Inspect every suspected area even if it is not related to the DTCs.
Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

(d) Drive the vehicle in accordance with the driving pattern described in Confirmation Driving Pattern.

HINT:

If any misfire count (Misfire Count Cylinder #1 to #6) increases while idling or driving the vehicle, proceed to step 6 (CHECK INTAKE SYSTEM).
Perform inspections while focusing on the cylinder whose misfire count has increased.

(e) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.

(f) Read the DTCs.

Powertrain > Engine > Trouble Codes

Result	Proceed to
P11EA00, P11EB00, P219A00 or P219B00 is output	A
DTC P219A00 or P219B00, and P219C00, P219D00, P219E00, P219F00, P21A000 or P21A100 are output	B
DTC P11EA00 or P11EB00, and P11EC00, P11ED00, P11EE00, P11EF00, P11F000 or P11F100 are output
DTC P11EC00, P11ED00, P11EE00, P11EF00, P11F000, P11F100, P219C00, P219D00, P219E00, P219F00, P21A00 and/or P21A100 are output

GO TO STEP 6

4.	PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (CONTROL THE INJECTION VOLUME)

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Start the engine and warm it up until the engine coolant temperature reaches 75°C (167°F) or higher.

HINT:

The A/C switch and all accessory switches should be off and the shift lever should be in P.

(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Control the Injection Volume / Data List / Coolant Temperature and Misfire Count Cylinder #1 to #6.

Powertrain > Engine > Active Test

Active Test Display
Control the Injection Volume

Data List Display
Coolant Temperature
Misfire Count Cylinder #1
Misfire Count Cylinder #2
Misfire Count Cylinder #3
Misfire Count Cylinder #4
Misfire Count Cylinder #5
Misfire Count Cylinder #6

HINT:

When the "Control the Injection Volume" Active Test is selected (injection volume is 0%), if a misfire count increases, proceed to step 6 (CHECK INTAKE SYSTEM).

(e) Perform the Control the Injection Volume operation with the engine idling.

(f) Check the misfire counts (Misfire Count Cylinder #1 to #6) while decreasing the injection volume in 5% increments.

The cylinder whose misfire count has not increased can be assumed to be running rich. Therefore, perform inspections while focusing on that cylinder.

5.	CHECK FOR EXHAUST GAS LEAK

(a) Check for exhaust gas leak.

OK:

No gas leaks in exhaust system.

HINT:

Perform "Inspection After Repair" after repairing or replacing the exhaust system.

Click here

REPAIR OR REPLACE EXHAUST SYSTEM

6.	CHECK INTAKE SYSTEM

(a) Check the intake system for vacuum leaks.

Click here

OK:

No leaks in the intake system.

HINT:

Perform "Inspection After Repair" after repairing or replacing the intake system.

Click here

REPAIR OR REPLACE INTAKE SYSTEM

7.	INSPECT SPARK PLUG

(a) Inspect the spark plug of the cylinder causing the imbalance.

Click here

HINT:

Perform "Inspection After Repair" after replacing the spark plug.

Click here

REPLACE SPARK PLUG

8.	CHECK FOR SPARK (SPARK TEST)

(a) Perform a spark test.

Click here

HINT:

If the result of the spark test is normal, proceed to the next step.
Perform "Inspection After Repair" after replacing the spark plug or ignition coil assembly.
Click here

9.	CHECK CYLINDER COMPRESSION PRESSURE

(a) Measure the cylinder compression pressure of the misfiring cylinder.

Click here

HINT:

Perform "Inspection After Repair" after repairing or replacing the engine assembly.

Click here

CHECK ENGINE TO DETERMINE CAUSE OF LOW COMPRESSION

10.	CHECK PORT FUEL INJECTOR ASSEMBLY OF CYLINDER CAUSING IMBALANCE

(a) Check the port fuel injector assembly [whether fuel volume is high or low, and whether injection pattern is poor].

Click here

HINT:

Perform "Inspection After Repair" after replacing the port fuel injector assembly.

Click here

REPLACE PORT FUEL INJECTOR ASSEMBLY

11.	CHECK DIRECT FUEL INJECTOR ASSEMBLY OF CYLINDER CAUSING IMBALANCE

(a) Check the direct fuel injector assembly [whether fuel volume is high or low, and whether injection pattern is poor].

Click here

HINT:

Perform "Inspection After Repair" after replacing the direct fuel injector assembly.

Click here

REPLACE DIRECT FUEL INJECTOR ASSEMBLY

12.	CHECK FOR CAUSE OF FAILURE

(a) If the cause of the problem has not been found even after performing the troubleshooting procedure, perform the inspection below.

(b) Check the intake valve for deposits.

HINT:

As the DTC may have been stored due to deposits on the intake valve, remove the cylinder head sub-assembly and check the intake valve.

13.

CLEAR DTC

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the engine switch on (IG).

(d) Clear the DTC.

Powertrain > Engine > Clear DTCs

(e) Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.

14.	CONFIRM WHETHER MALFUNCTION HAS BEEN SUCCESSFULLY REPAIRED

(a) Drive the vehicle in accordance with the driving pattern described in Confirmation Driving Pattern.

(b) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.

Powertrain > Engine > Trouble Codes

DTCs are not output.
