SFI SYSTEM(w/o Canister Pump Module) DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM


  1. EURO-OBD (EUROPEAN SPEC)

    B00732B

    When troubleshooting Europe On-Board Diagnostic (Euro-OBD) vehicles, an OBD scan tool (complying with ISO 15765-4) must be connected to the vehicle. Various data output from the vehicle's ECM can then be read.

    Euro-OBD regulations require that the vehicle's on-board computer illuminate the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) on the instrument panel when the computer detects a malfunction in:


    1. The emission control system components.

    2. The powertrain control components which affect vehicle emissions.

    3. The computer.

    In addition, the applicable Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) prescribed by ISO 15765-4 are stored in the ECM memory. If the malfunction does not recur in 3 consecutive trips, the MIL turns off automatically but the DTCs remain stored in the ECM memory.

    To check DTCs, connect the GTS or OBD scan tool to the Data Link Connector 3 (DLC3) of the vehicle.

    The scan tool displays DTCs, the freeze frame data and a variety of engine data.

    The DTCs and freeze frame data can be cleared using the scan tool.

  2. M-OBD (EXCEPT EUROPEAN SPEC.)

    B00732B

    When troubleshooting a Multiplex On-Board Diagnostic (M-OBD) vehicle, the vehicle must be connected to the GTS. Various data output from the ECM can then be read.

    OBD regulations require that the vehicle on-board computer illuminate the MIL on the instrument panel when the computer detects a malfunction in:


    1. The emission control system components.

    2. The powertrain control components which affect vehicle emissions.

    3. The computer.

    In addition, the applicable Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) are stored in the ECM memory. If the malfunction does not recur in 3 consecutive trips, the MIL turns off automatically but the DTCs remain stored in the ECM memory.

  3. NORMAL MODE AND CHECK MODE

    The diagnosis system operates in normal mode during normal vehicle use. In normal mode, 2 trip detection logic is used to ensure accurate detection of malfunctions. Check mode is also available as an option for technicians. In check mode, 1 trip detection logic is used for duplicating malfunction symptoms and increasing the system's ability to detect malfunctions, including intermittent problems (GTS only).

  4. 2 TRIP DETECTION LOGIC

    When a malfunction is first detected, the malfunction is temporarily stored in the ECM memory (1st trip). If the same malfunction is detected during the subsequent drive cycle, the MIL is illuminated (2nd trip).

  5. DLC3 (Data Link Connector 3)


    1. Check the DLC3.

  6. FREEZE FRAME DATA

    The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can be helpful in determining whether the vehicle was moving or stationary, whether the engine was warmed up or not, whether the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data stored at the time of a malfunction.

  7. BATTERY VOLTAGE

    If the voltage is less than 11 V, recharge or replace the battery.

  8. MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp)


    1. The MIL is illuminated when the engine switch is turned on (IG) (with the engine not running).

    2. The MIL turns off when the engine is started. If the MIL remains illuminated, the diagnosis system has detected a malfunction or abnormality in the system.

      Tech Tips

      If the MIL is not illuminated when the engine switch is turned on (IG), check the MIL circuit.

  9. ALL READINESS

    Tech Tips


    • With "All Readiness", you can check whether or not the DTC judgment has been completed by using the GTS.

    • You should check "All Readiness" after simulating malfunction symptoms or for validation after finishing repairs.


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    3. Turn the GTS on.

    4. Clear the DTCs.


      Powertrain > Engine > Clear DTCs

    5. Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.

    6. Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.

    7. Perform the DTC judgment driving pattern to run the DTC judgment.

    8. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.


      Powertrain > Engine > Utility
    10. Tester Display
    All Readiness

  • Input the DTCs to be confirmed.

  • Check the DTC judgment result.

    GTS Display Description
    NORMAL

    • DTC judgment completed

    • System normal
    ABNORMAL

    • DTC judgment completed

    • System abnormal
    INCOMPLETE

    • DTC judgment not completed

    • Perform the driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions
