CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

Tech Tips

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


  1. After troubleshooting, perform the following steps to recheck for DTCs.

    Tech Tips


    • If the cable is disconnected from the negative (-) battery terminal, stop and start control is prohibited until refresh charge is completed. After connecting the cable, drive the vehicle until refresh charge is completed and stop and start control is permitted (approximately 15 to 40 minutes).

    • 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. for Manual transaxle


      1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

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

      3. Clear the DTCs Click here.

      4. Start the engine and warm it up.

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

        CAUTION:

        When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.

      6. Stop the vehicle, move the shift lever to neutral and release the clutch pedal.

      7. Keep the engine stopped by stop and start control for 1 second or more.

      8. Depress the clutch pedal and start the engine.

        Tech Tips

        If the engine cranks slowly when the engine is restarted, it can be determined that battery voltage is low.

      9. Check that DTCs are not output Click here.

    2. for CVT


      1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

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

      3. Clear the DTCs Click here.

      4. Start the engine and warm it up.

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

        CAUTION:

        When performing the 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 for 1 second or more (Keep the shift lever in D).

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

        Tech Tips

        If the engine cranks slowly when the engine is restarted, it can be determined that battery voltage is low.

      9. Check that DTCs are not output Click here.

  2. Check if the stop and start system operates normally.

    Tech Tips

    If the cable is disconnected from the negative (-) battery terminal, stop and start control is prohibited until refresh charge is completed. After connecting the cable, drive the vehicle until refresh charge is completed and stop and start control is permitted (approximately 15 to 40 minutes).

        CAUTION:

        When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.

      4. Stop the vehicle, move the shift lever to neutral and release the clutch pedal.

      5. Allow the engine to stop by stop and start control.

      6. Depress the clutch pedal and start the engine.

    2. for CVT


      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:

Note


  • Before replacing the engine stop and start ECU, read the number of starter operations and write it into a new engine stop and start ECU Click here.

  • After replacing the engine stop and start ECU or air conditioning amplifier assembly, reset and perform learning of the air conditioning information in the engine stop and start ECU Click here.

  • After replacing the engine stop and start ECU or airbag sensor assembly, clear and calibrate the deceleration sensor zero point in the engine stop and start ECU Click here.

  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.

Tech Tips


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

  • Using the GTS, read the freeze frame data before troubleshooting. System condition information is recorded as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. This information can be useful when troubleshooting Click here.

  • If DTCs P060B and P1644 are output simultaneously, perform troubleshooting for DTC P060B (Analog to Digital Converter Malfunction) first as it may have caused DTC P1644 (ECU Internal Error) to be stored.

  • If DTCs P0641 and P1644 are output simultaneously, perform troubleshooting for DTC P0641 (Sensor Reference Voltage "A" Circuit/Open) first as it may have caused DTC P1644 (ECU Internal Error) to be stored.
