DTC Description: Fail-Safe

Fail safe mode

Vehicle behavior

Traveling control mode

Accelerator angle variation control

ECM controls the accelerator pedal depression speed to make it slower than actual speed. This causes a drop in accelerating performance and encourages the driver to repair malfunction.

Device fix mode

• Fixes electric intake valve timing control motor in the reference position.
• Fixes exhaust valve timing control solenoid valve in the reference position.

Combustion control mode

Stratified charge combustion control at starting

No stratified charge combustion at starting (cold start).

Idle speed control

Stops feedback control of idle speed and controls with specified speed.

Recovery speed control at decelerating

Stops recovery speed control by the fuel cut at decelerating and controls with specified speed.
