DESCRIPTION
Tech Tips
These DTCs indicate malfunctions relating to the primary circuit.
If DTC P0351 is set, check the No. 1 ignition coil assembly circuit.
If DTC P0352 is set, check the No. 2 ignition coil assembly circuit.
If DTC P0353 is set, check the No. 3 ignition coil assembly circuit.
If DTC P0354 is set, check the No. 4 ignition coil assembly circuit.
A Direct Ignition System (DIS) is used on this vehicle.
The DIS is an ignition system in which each cylinder is ignited by its own ignition coil assembly and spark plug. The secondary wiring of each ignition coil assembly generates a powerful voltage which is applied directly to each spark plug. The spark passes from the center electrode of the spark plug to the ground electrode.
The ECM determines the ignition timing and transmits the ignition (IGT) signals to each cylinder. Using the IGT signal, the ECM turns the power transistor inside the igniter on and off. The power transistor, in turn, switches on and off the current to the primary coil. When the current to the primary coil is cut off, a powerful voltage is generated in the secondary coil. This voltage is applied to the spark plugs, causing them to spark inside the cylinders. As the ECM cuts the current to the primary coil, the igniter sends back an ignition confirmation (IGF) signal to the ECM, for each cylinder ignition.
| DTC No. | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| P0351 P0352 P0353 P0354 |
No IGF signal to ECM while engine running (1 trip detection logic) |
|
| *a | 5 V/DIV. |
Reference: Inspection using an oscilloscope
While cranking or idling the engine, check the waveform between terminals IGT (1 to 4) and E1, and IGF1 and E1 of the ECM connector.
| ECM Terminal Name | CH1: Between IGT (1 to 4) and E1 CH2: Between IGF1 and E1 |
| Tester Range | 5 V/DIV., 20 ms./DIV. |
| Condition | Idling |
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
If the ECM does not receive any IGF signals despite transmitting the IGT signal, it interprets this as a fault in the igniter and stores a DTC.
If the malfunction is not repaired successfully, a DTC is stored 1 second after the engine is next started.
CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN
Start the engine and run it at idle for 10 seconds or more.

Tech Tips
Read freeze frame data using the intelligent tester. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. 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.
