ECD SYSTEM PRECAUTION


  1. INITIALIZATION AND REGISTRATION

    Note

    When the ECM and/or the other component(s), mentioned below are replaced, perform the following utility items, referring to the corresponding Initialization and Registration procedure.

    Tech Tips

    When the ECM and other component(s) are replaced at the same time, perform the following utility items by following the instructions shown on the tester display, starting with the ECM.

    • *: "DPF Deterioration Record Clear" appears on the intelligent tester display only for vehicles with the DPF system.

      DPF Deterioration Record means the ash accumulation volume in the DPF catalytic converter calculated by the ECM. If the ash accumulation volume in the DPF catalytic converter increases, the difference in pressure in front of and behind the DPF catalytic converter will increase. The difference in pressure in front of and behind the DPF catalytic converter is offset depending on the volume of accumulated ash.

    Tech Tips


    • When the ECM must be replaced, before replacing the ECM, perform the "Learning Values Save" function using the intelligent tester. Then after installing the new ECM, perform all of the initializations/registrations for the "Learning Values Write" function by following the instructions shown on the tester display.

    • After replacing fuel injector(s), perform both the "Injector Compensation" and the "Pilot Quantity Learning Values Reset" functions using the intelligent tester.

    • After replacing the engine assembly, perform both the "Injector Compensation" and the "Pilot Quantity Learning Values Reset" functions using the intelligent tester.

  2. INJECTOR COMPENSATION CODE

    A011AIZE01

    Tech Tips

    Each fuel injector has different fuel injection characteristics. In order to optimize the fuel injections, the ECM uses the compensation codes to balance the different fuel injections between each injector. Injector compensation codes are 12-digit, alphanumeric values printed on the head of each injector.

    Note

    If an incorrect fuel injector compensation code is input into the ECM, the engine assembly may rattle or engine idling may become rough. In addition, engine failure may occur and the life of the engine may be shortened.

  3. OIL MAINTENANCE LIGHT AND MIL

    Tech Tips

    The troubleshooting procedure will be different depending on the combination of the output DTCs and indicator light status (oil maintenance light and MIL) in the combination meter. Thus, perform troubleshooting referring to the table below.


    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the tester on.

    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / DTC.

    4. Read the output DTCs combination of P250D, P252F and P2463.

    • Read the instruction manuals before using the tester.

    • Prevent the tester cable from being caught on the pedals, shift lever and steering wheel when driving with the tester connected to the vehicle.

    • When driving the vehicle for testing purposes and using the tester, two persons are required. One for driving the vehicle, and the other for operating the tester.
