Fuel Cut Control System Inspection
NOTE:
- This inspection has to be performed after the Fuel Injector Operation Inspection.
If data monitor function of M-MDS is used:
- Warm up the engine and idle it.
- Connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2.
- Select the ENG_RPM and the FUEL_PULSE_WD PIDs. (See PID/DATA MONITOR INSPECTION .)
- Monitor both PIDs while performing the following steps:
- Depress the accelerator pedal and increase the ENG_RPM PID to 4, 000 rpm.
- Quickly release the accelerator pedal (brake pedal is not depressed) and verify that the FUEL_PULSE_WD PID is 0 msec, and 2-5 msec when the ENG_RPM PID drops below 1, 200 rpm.
- If not as specified, inspect the following:
- ECT sensor No. 1 and related wiring harness ECT sensor No. 2 and related wiring harness (See ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE (ECT) SENSOR INSPECTION [SKYACTIV-G (VIN M (US))] .) (See ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE (ECT) SENSOR INSPECTION [SKYACTIV-G (VIN L (US))] .)
- If not as specified, inspect the following:
If data monitor function of M-MDS is not used:
- Warm up the engine and idle it.
- Measure the fuel injector control signal wave profile using the oscilloscope while performing the following steps:
- Depress the accelerator pedal and increase the engine speed to 4, 000 rpm.
- Quickly release the accelerator pedal (brake pedal is not depressed) and verify that the wave profile constant B+, and the wave appears when the engine speed drops below 1, 200 rpm. (See PCM INSPECTION [SKYACTIV-G (VIN M (US))]
