Inspection steps

CAUTION: Before performing troubleshooting, check the fuse for this circuit.
NOTE:
  • If DTC P0351 is displayed, check the ignition coil ASSY No. 1 circuit.
  • If DTC P0352 is displayed, check the ignition coil ASSY No. 2 circuit.
  • If DTC P0353 is displayed, check the ignition coil ASSY No. 3 circuit.
  • If DTC P0354 is displayed, check the ignition coil ASSY No. 4 circuit.
  • Read the freeze frame data using the SSM4. 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 SSM4 to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    3. Turn on the SSM4.
    4. Follow the SSM4 on-screen instructions to clear the DTCs. (Refer to CHECKING/CLEARING DTC )
    5. Turn the ignition switch to OFF, and wait for 30 seconds.
  2. Perform test drive for operation check
    1. Change the position of the ignition coil ASSY 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 SSM4 on-screen instructions to check the DTC.

      (Refer to CHECKING/CLEARING DTC )

    RESULT DESCRIPTION

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

    A: Go to next step

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

  3. Check wiring harness and connector (ignition coil ASSY 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 ASSY.
    2. Measure the voltage between the terminals.
