STOP AND START SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:P1538

DTC Code DTC Name
P1538 Circuit Malfunction between AT Oil Pump and Stop and Start ECU

DESCRIPTION

The oil pump of the continuously variable transaxle assembly stops operating when the engine is stopped by stop and start control. While the engine is stopped by stop and start control, the oil pump with motor assembly is operated continuously ensuring optimal CVT oil pressure and smooth start-off when the engine is restarted.

The engine stop and start ECU supplies power to the oil pump with motor assembly via terminal OPO and operates the oil pump with motor assembly in accordance with signals sent from terminal OPM1. The oil pump with motor assembly sends operating speed signals to the engine stop and start ECU via the NOPM signal line.

DTC No.

Circuit Malfunction between AT Oil Pump and Stop and Start ECU

Both of the following conditions are met for 2 seconds or more (1 trip detection logic):

  • Oil pump motor relay circuit in the engine stop and start ECU is off

  • Oil pump with motor assembly power supply malfunction (Oil pump motor relay circuit in the engine stop and start ECU stuck on or shorted) or a short to ground in the NOPM circuit*1

Both of the following conditions are met for 1 second or more (2 trip detection logic):

  • Engine started

  • Oil pump with motor assembly circuit malfunction (Oil pump motor relay in the engine stop and start ECU stuck off, open or short to ground in the OPO, OPM1 or NOPM circuit or an open in the GND circuit)*2

  • Wire harness or connector

  • Oil pump with motor assembly

  • Engine stop and start ECU

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

Tip:

DTCs for the stop and start system are not cleared automatically even if the malfunction has been repaired. After repairing the malfunction, be sure to clear the DTCs.

  1. CONFIRMATION AFTER TROUBLESHOOTING

    Tip:

    • If the cable is disconnected from the negative (-) battery terminal, stop and start control is prohibited until refresh charge is completed. In this case, drive the vehicle approximately 5 to 40 minutes until refresh charge is completed and stop and start control operation is permitted.

    • Allow the engine to idle for 3 minutes after it is warmed up and check that the engine idle speed is within 50 rpm of the target idle speed.

    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.

    3. Clear the DTCs.

    4. Start the engine and warm it up.

    5. Drive the vehicle at 7 km/h (4.3 mph) or more.

      CAUTION:

      When performing Confirmation Driving Pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.

    6. Depress the brake pedal and stop the vehicle.

    7. Keep the engine stopped by stop and start control. (Keep the shift lever in D.)

    8. Release the brake pedal with the shift lever in D to start the engine.

    9. Check that no DTCs are output.

  2. STOP AND START SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK

    Tip:

    If the cable is disconnected from the negative (-) battery terminal, stop and start control is prohibited until refresh charge is completed. In this case, drive the vehicle approximately 5 to 40 minutes until refresh charge is completed and stop and start control operation is permitted.

    1. Start the engine and warm it up.

    2. Turn the air conditioning system off.

    3. Drive the vehicle at 7 km/h (4.3 mph) or more.

      CAUTION:

      When performing Confirmation Driving Pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.

    4. Depress the brake pedal and stop the vehicle.

    5. Allow the engine to stop by stop and start control. (Keep the shift lever in D.)

    6. Release the brake pedal with the shift lever in D to start the engine.

PROCEDURE

  1. CHECK FREEZE FRAME DATA

    Note:

    The freeze frame data is cleared when DTCs are cleared. Be sure to make a note of necessary data in advance.

    1. According to the display on the GTS, select DTC P1538 and check the sets of freeze frame data.
