On Board Diagnosis Function

ON BOARD DIAGNOSIS ITEM 

The on board diagnostic system has the following functions.

Diagnostic test mode Function
Bulb check MIL can be checked.
SRT status ECM can read if SRT codes are set.
Malfunction warning If ECM detects a malfunction, it illuminates or blinks MIL to inform the driver that a malfunction has been detected.
Accelerator pedal released position learning ECM can learn the accelerator pedal released position. Refer to Work Procedure .
Throttle valve closed position learning ECM can learn the throttle valve closed position. Refer to Work Procedure .
Wastegate actuator posi learn value clear The initial position of the wastegate valve position can be adjusted. Refer to Work Procedure .
Electric intake valve timing control learning The initial position of the electric intake valve timing control actuator can be adjusted. Refer to Work Procedure .
OCS reset Engine oil date reset. Refer to Work Procedure .

BLUB CHECK MODE 

Description 

This function allows damage inspection in the MIL bulb (blown, open circuit, etc.).

Operation Procedure 

  1. Turn ignition switch ON.
  2. The MIL on the instrument panel should stay ON. If it remains OFF, check MIL circuit. Refer to Diagnosis Procedure .

SRT STATUS MODE 

Description 

This function allows to read if ECM has completed the self-diagnoses of major emission control systems and components. For SRT, Refer to System Readiness Test (SRT) Code .

Operation Procedure 

  1. Turn ignition switch ON and wait 20 seconds.
  2. SRT status is indicated as shown below.
    • ECM continues to illuminate MIL if all SRT codes are set.
    • ECM blinks MIL for about 10 seconds if all SRT codes are not set.

MALFUNCTION WARNING MODE 

Description 

In this function ECM turns on or blinks MIL when it detects a malfunction in the emission control system components and/or the powertrain control components (which affect vehicle emissions) to inform the driver that a malfunction has been detected.

Operation Procedure 

  1. Turn ignition switch ON.
  2. Check that MIL illuminates. If it remains OFF, check MIL circuit. Refer to Diagnosis Procedure .
  3. Start engine and let it idle.
    • For two trip detection logic diagnoses, ECM turns on MIL when it detects the same malfunction twice in the two consecutive driving cycles.
    • For 1st trip detection logic diagnoses, ECM turns on MIL when it detects a malfunction in one driving cycle.
    • ECM blinks MIL when it detects a malfunction that may damage the three way catalyst (misfire).
