| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| P026A00 | Charge Air Cooler Efficiency Below Threshold |
DESCRIPTION
Refer to DTC P023A12.
| DTC No. | Detection Item | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area | MIL | Memory | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| P026A00 | Charge Air Cooler Efficiency Below Threshold | Boost temperature is 85°C or more. When intake air flow rate is 30 gm/sec or more. |
|
- | DTC stored | SAE: P026A |
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM bases the detection on the signals from the intake air temperature sensor (built into No. 1 turbo pressure sensor). The ECM stores a DTC if the intake air temperature sensor value is outside the normal range.
CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the GTS on.
Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.
Start the engine and warm it up until the engine coolant temperature reaches 70°C (158°F) or higher [A].
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List / Mass Air Flow Sensor.
Drive the vehicle for at least 10 seconds at an intake air flow rate (Mass Air Flow Sensor) of 30 gm/sec or more [B].
CAUTION:
When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.
Tech Tips
Drive under load, such as up a slope or acceleration driving.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes [C].
Read the pending DTCs.
Tech Tips
If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.
Input the DTC: P026A00.
Check the DTC judgment result.
| GTS Display | Description |
|---|---|
| NORMAL |
|
| ABNORMAL |
|
| INCOMPLETE |
|
| N/A |
|
Tech Tips
If the judgment result shows NORMAL, the system is normal.
If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.
If the judgment result shows INCOMPLETE or N/A, perform steps [B] and [C] again.
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Tech Tips
Read freeze frame data using the GTS. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
PROCEDURE
CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P026A00)
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.
Read the DTCs.

Tech Tips
If any DTCs other than P026A00 are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.
