Inspection Procedure

HINT:

The diagnostic information output from the AID can be confirmed by connecting an oscilloscope to the diagnostic information terminal of the AID. It narrows the trouble area search to read the waveform on the oscilloscope when performing the AIR system intrusive operation function provided in the SYSTEM CHECK.

  1. Start the engine and warm it up.
  2. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
  3. Connect the intelligent tester to the CAN VIM. Then connect the CAN VIM to the DLC3.
  4. Connect an oscilloscope probe to the AIDI terminal of the ECM.

  5. Start the engine and turn the tester ON.
  6. On the tester, enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / SYSTEM CHECK / AIR INJ SYSTEM.
  7. On the tester, enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / SYSTEM CHECK / AIR INJ CHECK / MANUAL / OPERATION 1 and 2.

    OPERATION 2: AP: ON; EASV: OPEN; ASV1: OPEN; ASV2: OPEN

  8. Monitor the voltage output of the AID (duty ratio signal).

Conditions Idling
NOTE:
  • This AIR INJECTION CHECK only allows technicians to operate the AIR system for 5 seconds. Furthermore, the check can be performed 4 times a trip. If the test is repeated, intervals of at least 30 seconds are required between checks.

    While the AIR system operation using the intelligent tester is prohibited, the tester displays the prohibition (Al STATUS NG) or ERROR. If ERROR (Al STATUS NG) is displayed on the tester, stop the engine for 10 minutes and then try again.

  • Performing the AIR INJ CHECK over and over again may cause damage in the secondary air injection system. If necessary, wait several minutes between tests to prevent overheating the system.
  • When performing the AIR INJ CHECK operation after the battery cable has been reconnected, wait for 7 minutes with the ignition switch turned ON or the engine running.
  • Turn the ignition switch OFF when the AIR INJ CHECK operation finishes.
