Diagnostic Procedure

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE DESCRIPTION

STEP INSPECTION RESULTS ACTION
1 RECORD VEHICLE STATUS AT TIME OF DTC DETECTION TO UTILIZE WITH REPEATABILITY VERIFICATION
NOTE:
  • Recording can be facilitated using the screen capture function of the PC.
  • Record the snapshot data on the repair order.
- 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.
No Go to the next step.
3 INSPECT COOLING FAN RELAY NO. 2
  • Switch the ignition off.
  • Remove the cooling fan relay No. 2. (See RELAY LOCATION .)
  • Inspect the cooling fan relay No. 2. (See RELAY INSPECTION .)
  • Is there any malfunction?
Yes Replace the cooling fan relay No. 2, then go to Step 9.
No Go to the next step.
4 INSPECT COOLING FAN RELAY NO. 2 POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND OR OPEN CIRCUIT
  • Cooling fan relay No. 2 is removed.
  • Switch the ignition ON (engine off).
  • Measure the voltage at the cooling fan relay No. 2 terminal A (wiring harness-side).
  • Is the voltage B+?
Yes Go to the next step.
No Inspect the ENGINE3 15 A fuse.
  • If the fuse is blown:
    • Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between ENGINE3 15 A fuse and cooling fan relay No. 2 terminal A.

    If there is a common connector:

  • Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground.
    • Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

    If there is no common connector:

  • Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a short to ground.
    • Replace the fuse.
    • If the fuse is damaged:
      • Replace the fuse.
  • If the fuse is normal:
    • Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between main relay terminal C and cooling fan relay No. 2 terminal A.

    If there is a common connector:

  • Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit.
    • Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

    If there is no common connector:

    • Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit.

Go to Step 9.
5 INSPECT COOLING FAN RELAY NO. 2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND
  • Cooling fan relay No. 2 is removed.
  • Switch the ignition off.
  • Inspect for continuity between cooling fan relay No. 2 terminal E (wiring harness-side) and body ground.
  • Is there continuity?
Yes Disconnect the PCM connector and inspect the wiring harness for short to ground.
  • If the short to ground circuit could be detected in the wiring harness:
    • Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between cooling fan relay No. 2 terminal E and PCM terminal 2AU.

    If there is a common connector:

  • Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground.
    • Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

      If there is no common connector:

    • Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a short to ground.
    • If the short to ground circuit could not be detected in the wiring harness:

Go to Step 9.
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 connector and/or terminals, then go to Step 9.
No Go to the next step.
7 INSPECT COOLING FAN RELAY NO. 2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY
  • Cooling fan relay No. 2 is removed.
  • Verify that the PCM connector is disconnected.
  • Switch the ignition ON (engine off).
    NOTE:
    • Another DTC may be stored by the PCM detecting an open circuit.
  • Measure the voltage at the cooling fan relay No. 2 terminal E (wiring harness-side).
  • Is the voltage 0 V?
Yes Go to the next step.
No Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between cooling fan relay No. 2 terminal E and PCM terminal 2AU.
If there is a common connector:
  • Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to power supply.
  • Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

    If there is no common connector:

  • Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a short to power supply.

Go to Step 9.
8 INSPECT COOLING FAN RELAY NO. 2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT
  • Cooling fan relay No. 2 is removed.
  • Verify that the PCM connector is disconnected.
  • Switch the ignition off.
  • Inspect for continuity between cooling fan relay No. 2 terminal E (wiring harness-side) and PCM terminal 2AU (wiring harness-side).
  • Is there continuity?
Yes Go to the next step.
No Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between cooling fan relay No. 2 terminal E and PCM terminal 2AU.
If there is a common connector:
  • Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit.
  • Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.

    If there is no common connector:

  • Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit.

Go to the next step.
9 VERIFY DTC TROUBLESHOOTING COMPLETED Yes Repeat the inspection from Step 1.
  • If the malfunction recurs, replace the PCM.

(See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-G 2.0, SKYACTIV-G 2.5] .)
Go to the next step.
No Go to the next step.
10 VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE Yes Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
(See DTC TABLE [PCM (SKYACTIV-G 2.0, SKYACTIV-G 2.5)] .)
No DTC troubleshooting completed.
