ENGINE STALLS-AFTER START/AT IDLE (PYUL) DESCRIPTION AND POSSIBLE CAUSE
| Troubleshooting item |
Engine stalls-after start/at idle |
| Description |
- Stalling occurs if vehicle is left idling under no load.
- Stalling occurs when load (electric, A/C) is applied during idling.
- Stalling occurs if the accelerator pedal is depressed from an idling condition when accelerating from a stop.
|
| Possible cause |
- Engine overheating
- PCM detects DTCs
- PCM input signal error
- APP sensor or related wiring harness malfunction
- ECT sensor or related wiring harness malfunction
- MAF sensor or related wiring harness malfunction
- MAP sensor or related wiring harness malfunction
- A/F sensor or related wiring harness malfunction
- HO2S or related wiring harness malfunction
- Improper operation of A/C system
- Improper operation of drive-by-wire control system
- Purge solenoid valve malfunction
- Open circuit in MAF sensor ground circuit
- Intermittent open circuit in PCM ground circuit (poor ground)
- Poor fuel quality
- Air leakage from intake-air system
- Intake-air system restriction
- Electrical connector disconnected
- No battery power supply to PCM or poor ground
- Fuel leakage
- Vacuum leakage
- CKP sensor input signal malfunction
- Poor installation
- Damaged trigger wheel (crankshaft pulley)
- Open or short circuit in related wiring harness
- CMP sensor input signal error
- Poor installation
- Damaged trigger wheel (intake camshaft and/or exhaust camshaft)
- Open or short circuit in related wiring harness
- Inadequate fuel pressure (high or low pressure side)
- Fuel pressure sensor or related wiring harness malfunction
- High pressure fuel pump malfunction
- Relief valve (built-into high pressure fuel pump) malfunction
- Spill valve control solenoid valve control circuit malfunction (damage to driver in PCM caused by short circuit to ground system)
- Spill valve control solenoid valve malfunction (built-into high pressure fuel pump)
- Fuel line restriction
- Fuel filter clogged
- Fuel pump unit malfunction
|
| Possible cause |
- Fuel injector malfunction
- Incorrect fuel injection timing
- Improper operation of electric variable valve timing control system
- Electric variable valve timing driver malfunction
- Electric variable valve timing motor malfunction
- Electric variable valve timing actuator malfunction
- Improper operation of hydraulic variable valve timing control system
- Ignition system malfunction
- Ignition coil malfunction
- Low engine compression
- Improper intake valve timing
- Improper exhaust valve timing
- Exhaust system and/or TWC restricted
- PCV valve malfunction
- Injector driver (built-into PCM) malfunction
WARNING:
- The following troubleshooting flow chart contains the fuel system diagnosis and repair procedures. Read the following warnings before performing the fuel system services:
- Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can easily ignite, causing serious injury and damage. Always keep sparks and flames away from fuel.
- Highly pressurized fuel may spray out if the fuel line is cut. Due to the following dangers occurring with a fuel spray, always complete the [Fuel Line Safety Procedure] to prevent the fuel from spraying. (Refer to [ BEFORE SERVICE PRECAUTION
] in Service Information.)
- Fuel may cause irritation if it comes in contact with skin and eyes.
- If fuel ignites and causes a fire, it may lead to serious injury or death, and damage to property and facilities.
- Fuel is highly flammable and dangerous. Fuel line spills and leakage can cause serious injury or death, and damage to equipment. Always Refer to [ QUICK RELEASE CONNECTOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION (FUEL SYSTEM)
] before performing the fuel hose installation, and execute the [Fuel Leakage Inspection] after installation. (Refer to [ QUICK RELEASE CONNECTOR (FUEL SYSTEM) REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
] in Service Information). (Refer to [ AFTER SERVICE PRECAUTION
] in Service Information.)
CAUTION:
- Disconnecting/connecting the quick release connector without cleaning it may possibly cause damage to the fuel pipe and quick release connector. Always clean the quick release connector joint area before disconnecting/connecting, and make sure that it is free of foreign material.
