DTC Code DTC Name
P0604 Random Access Memory (RAM)
P0606 ECM / PCM Processor
P060A Internal Control Module Monitoring Processor Performance
P060B Internal Control Module A/D Processing Performance
P060E Internal Control Module Throttle Position Performance
P0657 Actuator Supply Voltage Circuit / Open

DESCRIPTION

The ECM continuously monitors its internal memory status, internal circuits, and output signals transmitted to the throttle actuator. This self-check ensures that the ECM is functioning properly. If any malfunction is detected, the ECM sets the appropriate DTC and illuminates the MIL.

The ECM memory status is diagnosed by internal "mirroring" of the main CPU and the sub CPU to detect Random Access Memory (RAM) errors. The 2 CPUs also perform continuous mutual monitoring. The ECM illuminates the MIL and sets a DTC if: 1) outputs from the 2 CPUs are different or deviate from the standards, 2) the signals sent to the throttle actuator deviate from the standards, 3) a malfunction is found in the throttle actuator supply voltage, and 4) any other ECM malfunction is found.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

Tech Tips

Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. 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 running or stopped, whether the engine was warmed up or not, whether the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data recorded at the time of a malfunction.

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT


    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

    3. Turn the tester on.

    4. Clear the DTCs Click here.

    5. Turn the power switch off and turn the tester off.

    6. Disconnect the intelligent tester.

    7. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal and wait for 1 minute.

    8. Connect the cable to the negative (-) battery terminal.

    9. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    10. Turn the power switch on (IG).

    11. Wait 16 seconds or more.

    12. Turn the tester on.

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

    14. Read the DTCs.
