Inspection Procedure

HINT: 

• In contrast to normal malfunction diagnosis for components, circuit and systems, DTC P1605 is used to determine the malfunctioning area from the problem symptoms and freeze frame data when the user mentions problems such as rough idling.

  As these DTCs can be stored as a result of certain user actions, even if these DTCs are output, if the customer makes no mention of problems, clear these DTCs without performing any troubleshooting and return the vehicle to the customer.

• If any DTCs other than P1605 are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.
• Since DTC P1605 is different from other DTCs, the following procedure is shown as a reference.
• Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. Freeze frame data records engine conditions when a malfunction occurs. This information can be useful when troubleshooting.
• When confirming the freeze frame data, be sure to check all 5 sets of freeze frame data. Refer to FREEZE FRAME DATA [08/2013 - ] .
• When confirming freeze frame data, if there are multiple items related to the cause of the malfunction, perform troubleshooting for all related items.
• Try to operate the vehicle under the conditions recorded in the freeze frame data which were present when the malfunction occurred. Confirm the data at this time and the data when the engine is idling (engine warmed up and no load) and compare these data with the freeze frame data.
• Inspections take into account the fact that the malfunction may not have reoccurred and place emphasis on checking the vehicle conditions present at the time when the malfunction occurred.
• When performing inspections, jiggle the relevant wire harnesses and connectors in an attempt to reproduce malfunctions that do not always occur.
