ECD SYSTEM(for CCo), Diagnostic DTC:P1601

DTC Code DTC Name
P1601 Injector Correction Circuit Malfunction (EEPROM)

DESCRIPTION

P1601
DTC Detection Drive Pattern DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
Ignition switch ON for 1 second

When any condition below is met (1 trip detection logic):


  • Fuel injector compensation code is not registered.

  • Wrong injector compensation code is registered.

  • Fuel injector pilot quantity learning value is not registered.

  • Crank Time Compensation Learning value is not registered.*1

  • Fuel injector compensation code

  • Fuel injector pilot quantity learning value

  • Crank time compensation learning value

  • ECM

*1: When this malfunction occurs, the MIL does not illuminate.

Note


  • When a fuel injector is replaced, the new fuel injector compensation code must be input into the ECM. When the ECM is replaced, all of the existing fuel injector compensation codes must be input into the new ECM.

  • Fuel injector compensation codes are unique, 30-digit, alphanumeric values printed on the head portion of each fuel injector. 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.

  • When a fuel injector is replaced, perform pilot quantity learning. When the ECM is replaced, all of the existing fuel injector pilot quantity learning values must be input into the new ECM.

Tech Tips

When replacing the ECM with a new one, if the injector compensation code and/or injector pilot quantity learning value are not entered, DTC P1601 will be stored.


  1. When replacing the ECM with a new one, input all learning values and codes into the new ECM as follows:


    1. Prior to replacing the ECM, use the intelligent tester to read and save each learning value and code from the original ECM Click here.

    2. After installing a new ECM, input the saved learning values and codes into the new ECM using the tester Click here.

    3. Turn the ignition switch off and turn the tester off.

    4. Wait for at least 30 seconds.

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

    6. Clear DTC P1601 stored in the ECM using the tester Click here.

      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.

      • When you first turn ON the ignition switch after replacing the ECM and other component(s), DTC P1601 is stored. Manually clear the DTC upon completion of compensation code registration.

Note

After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration (See page ) and initialization Click here.

PROCEDURE


  1. LEARNING VALUES CONFIRMATION


    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

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

      Note

      Do not start the engine.

    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / Learning values confirmation Click here.

      Result
      Result Proceed to
      The injector compensation codes are not input A
      The injector compensation codes registered in the ECM are different than the codes imprinted on the injectors A
      The pilot quantity learning values are set to the default values. B
      Except above C

      Tech Tips

      When the fuel injector pilot quantity learning values are set to the default values, "7FFF" is displayed.

  3. LEARNING VALUES WRITE

    Tech Tips

    When replacing the ECM, after performing "Learning Values Save" to save the learned values from the old ECM using the intelligent tester and replacing the old ECM with a new one, "Learning Values Write" was not performed using the intelligent tester causing this DTC to be output.


    1. Install the old ECM.

    2. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

    3. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the intelligent tester on.

    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / Learning values save Click here.

    5. Remove the old ECM.

    6. Install the new ECM.

    7. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / Learning values write Click here.

  4. LEARNING VALUES CONFIRMATION


    1. Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.

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

      Note

      Do not start the engine.

    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / Learning values confirmation Click here.

      Result
      Result Proceed to
      The pilot quantity learning values are set to the default values. A
      Except above B

      Tech Tips

      When the fuel injector pilot quantity learning values are set to the default values, "7FFF" is displayed.
