Inspection steps

CAUTION: Before performing troubleshooting, check the fuse for this circuit.
NOTE:
  • If DTC P0351 is displayed, check the ignition coil assembly No. 1 circuit.
  • If DTC P0352 is displayed, check the ignition coil assembly No. 2 circuit.
  • If DTC P0353 is displayed, check the ignition coil assembly No. 3 circuit.
  • If DTC P0354 is displayed, check the ignition coil assembly No. 4 circuit.
  • Read the freeze frame data using the SSM3. A part of the engine running conditions under which the engine trouble occurred is recorded in the freeze frame data, which is useful for troubleshooting.
  1. Clear DTC
    1. Connect the SSM3 to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    3. Turn on the SSM3.
    4. Follow the SSM3 on-screen instructions to clear the DTCs. (Refer to CHECKING/CLEARING DTC )
    5. Turn the ignition switch to OFF, and wait for 30 seconds.

      Next

  2. Perform test drive for operation check
    1. Change the position of the ignition coil assembly and test drive the vehicle. (refer to "TEST DRIVE " under "Description of functions")
      CAUTION: Do not change the position of the ignition coil connectors.
    2. With IG ON, follow the SSM3 on-screen instructions to check the DTC. (Refer to CHECKING/CLEARING DTC )

      Result

      Result Go to
      DTC does not change. A
      DTCs with different igniter system are output. B

      B: Replacement of ignition coil assembly (Refer to REMOVAL )

      A: Go to next step

  3. Check wiring harness and connector (ignition coil assembly power supply circuit)
    NOTE: For the inspection procedure and precautions for wiring harnesses and connectors, refer to INSPECTION PROCEDURES FOR ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS AND HOW TO PERFORM .
    1. Disconnect the connector of the ignition coil assembly.
    2. Measure the voltage between the terminals.

      NG: Repair or replacement of wiring harness or connector

      OK: Go to next step

  4. Check wiring harness and connector (ignition coil assembly - chassis ground)
    NOTE: For the inspection procedure and precautions for wiring harnesses and connectors, refer to INSPECTION PROCEDURES FOR ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS AND HOW TO PERFORM .
    1. Disconnect the connector of the ignition coil assembly.
    2. Measure the resistance between the terminals.

  5. Check wiring harness and connector (engine control computer - ignition coil assembly)
    NOTE: For the inspection procedure and precautions for wiring harnesses and connectors, refer to INSPECTION PROCEDURES FOR ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS AND HOW TO PERFORM .
    1. Disconnect the connector for the engine control computer.
    2. Disconnect the connector of the ignition coil assembly.
    3. Measure the resistance between the terminals. (Refer to for the TERMINAL ARRANGEMENT )
