| 18 (5) | Spill Control Circuit Malfunction |
DESCRIPTION
The ECM operates the spill control valve to control the fuel injection volume. The spill control valve is mounted on the injection pump. The spill control valve's solenoid valve opens and closes the injection pressure release port. During fuel injection, the spill control valve is on (closed). The ECM determines the basic fuel injection amount based on the engine speed and accelerator pedal position. Then the ECM uses several other correctional factors to determine the final fuel injection amount. After fuel injection has begun, the ECM ensures the final fuel injection amount by performing the following: 1) by counting the number of NE signals, and 2) by turning the spill control valve from on (closed) to off (open) (injection pressure release port is open).
| DTC No. | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| 18 (5) | Open or short in the spill control valve circuit at 500 rpm or more. |
