Diagnostic procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Mazda 6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

STEP	INSPECTION		ACTION
1	VERIFY FREEZE FRAME DATA AND DIAGNOSTIC MONITORING TEST RESULTS HAVE BEEN RECORDED Have FREEZE FRAME DATA and DIAGNOSTIC MONITORING TEST RESULTS (A/F sensor heater, HO2S heater related) been recorded?	Yes	Go to the next step
1		No	Record FREEZE FRAME DATA and DIAGNOSTIC MONITORING TEST RESULTS on repair order, then go to the next step.
2	VERIFY RELATED REPAIR INFORMATION AVAILABILITY Verify related Service Bulletins and/or on-line repair information availability. Is any related repair information available?	Yes	Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available repair information If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.
2		No	Go to the next step
3	VERIFY RELATED PENDING CODE OR STORED DTC Switch the ignition to off, then to the ON (engine off). Verify the related PENDING CODE or stored DTCs using the M-MDS. Is the DTC P0031:00 or P0032:00 also present?	Yes	Go to the applicable DTC inspection. (See DTC P0031:00 [L5] .) (See DTC P0032:00 [L5] .)
3		No	Go to the next step.
4	IDENTIFY TRIGGER DTC FOR FREEZE FRAME DATA Is DTC P0030.00 on FREEZE FRAME DATA?	Yes	Go to the next step
4		No	Go to troubleshooting for DTC on FREEZE FRAME DATA. (See DTC TABLE [L5] .)
5	INSPECT A/F SENSOR CONNECTOR CONDITION Switch the ignition to off. Disconnect the A/F sensor connector Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion). Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Repair or replace the terminal and/or connector, then go to Step 11
5		No	Go to the next step
6	INSPECT PCM CONNECTOR CONDITION Disconnect the PCM connector. Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion). Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Repair or replace the terminal and/or connector, then go to Step 11
6		No	Go to the next step
7	INSPECT A/F SENSOR HEATER CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND Inspect for continuity between A/F sensor terminal E (wiring harness-side) and body ground. Is there continuity?	Yes	Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to ground, then go to Step 11.
7		No	Go to the next step
8	INSPECT A/F SENSOR HEATER Inspect the A/F sensor heater. (See AIR FUEL RATIO (A/F) SENSOR INSPECTION [L5] .) Is there any malfunction?	Yes	Replace the A/F sensor, then go to Step 11. (See AIR FUEL RATIO (A/F) SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [L5] .)
8		No	Go to the next step
9	INSPECT A/F SENSOR HEATER CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY Reconnect the disconnected connectors Switch the ignition to ON (engine off). Measure the voltage between PCM terminal 2A (wiring harness-side) and body ground Is the voltage 1.5 V or more?	Yes	Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to power supply, then go to Step 11
9		No	Go to the next step
10	INSPECT A/F SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT Switch the ignition to off. Inspect for continuity between the following terminals: A/F sensor terminal D (wiring harness-side) and PCM terminal 2AC (wiring harness-side) A/F sensor terminal E (wiring harness-side) and PCM terminal 2A (wiring harness-side) Is there continuity?	Yes	Go to the next step
10		No	Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible open circuit, then go to the next step
11	VERIFY DTC TROUBLESHOOTING COMPLETED Make sure to reconnect all disconnected connectors. Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS. Perform the KOEO/KOER self test. (See KOEO/KOER SELF TEST [L5] .) Is the PENDING CODE for this DTC present?	Yes	Replace the PCM, then go to the next step. (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [L5] .)
11		No	Go to the next step.
12	VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE Perform the "AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE". (See AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE [L5] .) Are any DTCs present?	Yes	Go to the applicable DTC inspection. (See DTC TABLE [L5] .)
12		No	DTC troubleshooting completed.
