Monitor Description
The ECM illuminates the MIL and sets a DTC when either one of the following conditions, which could cause emission deterioration, is detected (2 trip detection logic).
- Within the first 1000 crankshaft revolutions of the engine starting, an excessive misfiring rate (approximately 20 to 50 misfires per 1000 crankshaft revolutions) occurs once.
- An excessive misfiring rate (approximately 20 to 50 misfires per 1000 crankshaft revolutions) occurs a total of 4 times.
The ECM flashes the MIL and sets a DTC when either one of the following conditions, which could cause the three-way catalytic converter damage, is detected (2 trip detection logic).
- At a high engine RPM, a catalyst damage misfire, which monitored every 200 crankshaft revolutions, occurs once.
- At a normal engine RPM, a catalyst damage misfire, which monitored every 200 crankshaft revolutions, occurs 3 times.
HINT:
If a catalyst damage misfire occurs, the ECM informs the driver by flashing the MIL.
Misfire Monitor for Mexico Models
The ECM illuminates the MIL and sets a DTC when either one of the following conditions, which could cause emission deterioration, is detected (2 trip detection logic).
- Within the first 1000 crankshaft revolutions of the engine starting, an excessive misfiring rate (approximately 1000 misfires per 1000 crankshaft revolutions) occurs once.
- An excessive misfiring rate (approximately 500 misfires per 1000 crankshaft revolutions) occurs a total of 4 times.
The ECM flashes the MIL and sets a DTC when the following condition, which could cause the Three-Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) damage, is detected (2 trip detection logic).
- A catalyst damage misfire, which is monitored every 200 crankshaft revolutions, occurs 3 times.
