SFI SYSTEM FAIL-SAFE CHART

If any of the following DTCs are set, the ECM enters fail-safe mode to allow the vehicle to be driven temporarily.

DTC Code Component Fail-Safe Operation Fail-Safe Deactivation Condition
P0031 and P0032 Air fuel ratio sensor heater (sensor 1) ECM turn off air fuel ratio sensor heater Pass condition is detected and then the engine switch is turned on (IG) again.
P0037 and P0038 Heated oxygen sensor heater (sensor 2) ECM turn off heated oxygen sensor heater Pass condition is detected and then the engine switch is turned on (IG) again.
P0100, P0102 and P0103 Mass air flow meter sub-assembly ECM calculates ignition timing according to engine speed and throttle valve position Pass condition is detected.
P0110, P0112 and P0113 Intake air temperature sensor The ECM sets intake air temperature at 20°C (68°F). Pass condition is detected.
P0115, P0117 and P0118 Engine coolant temperature sensor The ECM sets engine coolant temperature at 80°C (176°F). Pass condition is detected.
P0120, P0121, P0122, P0123, P0220, P0222, P0223, P0604, P0606, P0607, P060A, P060D, P060E, P0657, P1607, P2102, P2103, P2111, P2112, P2118, P2119 and P2135 Electronic throttle control system

The ECM turns off the throttle motor power and the throttle valve is returned to 6.5° throttle position by return spring.

The ECM then adjusts engine output by controlling fuel injection (intermittent fuel-cut) and ignition timing in accordance with accelerator pedal angle, to allow vehicle to continue at minimal speed.*1

Pass condition is detected and then the engine switch is turned on (IG) again.
P0327 and P0328 Knock control sensor The ECM sets ignition timing to maximum retard. The engine switch is off.
P0351, P0352, P0353 and P0354 Ignition coil assembly The ECM cuts fuel. Pass condition for the ignition system is detected.
P0504 Stop light switch assembly The ECM sets accelerator pedal operating angle. Pass condition is detected and then the engine switch is turned on (IG) again.
P2120, P2122, P2123, P2125, P2127 and P2128 Accelerator pedal sensor assembly The ECM restricts engine output. Pass condition is detected and then the engine switch is turned on (IG) again.
P2121 and P2138 Accelerator pedal sensor assembly The ECM sets idle speed. Pass condition is detected and then the engine switch is turned on (IG) again.
P2237, P2238, P2239, P2252 and P2253 Air fuel ratio sensor (sensor 1) Air fuel ratio feedback control is stopped. Pass condition is detected and then the engine switch is turned on (IG) again.

Note


  • *1: The vehicle can be driven slowly when the accelerator pedal is depressed slowly. If the accelerator pedal is depressed quickly, the vehicle may speed up and slow down erratically.
