  5. READ VALUE USING GTS (SHORT FT #1 (#2) AND LONG FT #1 (#2))


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    3. Turn the GTS on.

    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / All Data / Short FT #1 (#2) and Long FT #1 (#2).

      Data List Result Proceed to
      Short FT #1 (#2) + Long FT #1 (#2) -15% or higher, or less than 15% A
      Other than above B

      Tech Tips


      • "Total FT #1 (#2)" is used to detect an abnormal air fuel ratio. As the value of "Total FT #1 (#2)" is corrected by the ECM before it is displayed in the Data List, the displayed value may not be equal to the sum of the measured "Short FT #1 (#2)" and "Long FT #1 (#2)".

      • An abnormally lean or rich tendency can be checked by reading the following Data List items: A/F Learn Value Idle #1 (#2), A/F Learn Value Low #1 (#2), A/F Learn Value Mid1 #1 (#2), A/F Learn Value Mid2 #1 (#2), A/F Learn Value High #1 (#2). (For vehicles equipped with a V type engine, check that both banks have the same correction tendency.) If the correction of either bank is -15% or less or +15% or higher, the air fuel ratio sensor or heated oxygen sensor of that bank may be malfunctioning.

      • The following may cause a lean air fuel ratio (an operating range in which the air fuel ratio learned value correction is +15% or higher):


        1. Decrease in fuel injector assembly injection volume

        2. Decrease in mass air flow meter sub-assembly output (due to existence of foreign matter)

        3. Air leaks in intake system after mass air flow meter sub-assembly

        4. Decrease in fuel pressure (at fuel filter, fuel pump or fuel pressure regulator assembly)

      • On vehicles which the learning value for each operating range can be checked, if the value of "A/F Learn Value High #1 (#2)" only is corrected to the positive side, a malfunction in the fuel system (clogging of the fuel pump or fuel filter) is suspected.

      • On vehicles which the learning value for each operating range can be checked, if the value of "A/F Learn Value Idle #1 (#2)" or "A/F Learn Value Low #1 (#2)" only is corrected to the positive side, an air leak after the mass air flow meter subassembly is suspected.

      • The following may cause a rich air fuel ratio (an operating range in which the air fuel ratio learned value correction is -15% or less):


        1. Increase in the fuel injector assembly injection volume

        2. Purge VSV system

    9. Monitor the engine speed (Engine Speed of Cyl #1 to #6 and Av Engine Speed of All Cyl) displayed on the GTS.

      Tech Tips

      At first, the GTS displays extremely high cylinder engine speed values. After approximately 10 seconds of engine cranking, each cylinder engine speed measurement will change to the actual engine speed.

      Note


      • Do not crank the engine continuously for 20 seconds or more.

      • If it is necessary to crank the engine again after Check the Cylinder Compression has been changed to ON and the engine has been cranked once, press Exit to return to the Active Test menu screen. Then change Check the Cylinder Compression to ON and crank the engine.

      • Use a fully-charged battery.

    10. Stop cranking the engine, and then change "Check the Cylinder Compression" to OFF after the engine stops.

      Note


      • If the Active Test is changed to OFF while the engine is being cranked, the engine will start.

      • When performing the Active Test, DTC P1604 (Startability Malfunction) may be stored.

      • After performing the Active Test, make sure to check and clear DTCs.

    11. Read the value.

      Tech Tips


      • If the value of Data List item "Engine Speed of Cyl #1 to #6" of a cylinder is higher than other cylinders, the cylinder may be malfunctioning.

      • If the value of Data List item "Engine Speed of Cyl #1 to #6" is high for only one cylinder, compression loss is suspected.
