P0303 - Cylinder 3 Misfire Detected

P0303 - CYLINDER 3 MISFIRE DETECTED

Description:  This DTC sets when the misfire detection monitor detects an engine misfire in cylinder 3.
Possible Causes: 
  • Ignition system
  • Fuel injector 3
  • Running out of fuel
  • EVAP purge valve
  • Fuel pressure
  • Evaporative emission system
  • Exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system
  • Base engine
  • Misfire monitor neutral profile correction has not been relearned since the last mechanical repair
Diagnostic Aids:  Misfire is defined as lack of combustion in a cylinder due to absence of spark, incorrect fuel metering, low compression, or any other cause.
The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) blinks once per second when a misfire severe enough to cause catalyst damage is detected. If the MIL is on steady state due to a misfire, this indicates the threshold for emissions was exceeded and caused the vehicle to fail an inspection and maintenance tailpipe test.
