DTC P1300 Igniter Circuit Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
A Direct Ignition System (DIS) has been adopted. The DIS improves the ignition timing accuracy, reduces
highvoltage loss, and enhances the overall reliability of the ignition system by eliminating the distributor.
The DIS is a 2cylinder simultaneous ignition system which ignites 2 cylinders simultaneously with 1 ignition
coil. In the 2cylinder simultaneous ignition system, each of the 2 spark plugs is connected to the end of the
secondary winding. High voltage generated in the secondary winding is applied directly to the spark plugs.
The sparks of the 2 spark plugs pass simultaneously from the center electrode to the ground electrode.
The ECM determines ignition timing end outputs the ignition signals (IGT) for each cylinder. Based on IGT
signals, the igniter controls the primary ignition signals (IGC) for all ignition coils. At the same time, the igniter
also sends an ignition confirmation signal (IGF) as a failsafe measure to the ECM.

WIRING DIAGRAM
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Read freeze frame data using handheld tester or OBD II scan tool, as freeze frame data records the engine
conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, it is useful for determining whether the
vehicle was running or stopped, the engine was warmed up or not, the airfuel ratio was lean or rich, etc.
at the time of the malfunction.
1 Check spark plug and spark of misfiring cylinder (See page DI210).
NG Go to step 4.
OK
2 Check for open and short in harness and connector in IGF signal circuit between
ECM and igniter (See page IN28).
NG Repair or replace harness or connector.

3 Disconnect igniter connector, and check voltage between terminal IGF of ECM
connector and body ground.
PREPARATION:
(a) Disconnect the igniter connector.
(b) Remove the glove compartment (See page SF58).
(c) Turn the ignition switch ON.
CHECK:
Measure the voltage between terminal IGF of the ECM connec-
tor and the body ground.
OK:
Voltage: 4.5 5.5 V
OK Replace igniter.
NG
Check and replace ECM (See page IN28).
4 Check for open and short in harness and connector in IGT signal circuit between
ECM and igniter (See page IN28).
NG Repair or replace harness or connector.
OK
5 Check voltage between terminals IGT1 IGT3 of ECM connector and body
ground.
PREPARATION:
Remove the glove compartment (See page SF58).
CHECK:
Measure the voltage between terminal IGT1 IGT3 of the ECM
connector and body ground when the engine is cranked.
OK:
Voltage: More than 0.1 V and less than 4.5 V

Reference: INSPECTION USING OSCILLOSCOPE
During idling, check the waveforms between terminals IGT1
IGT3 and E1, and IGF and E1 of the ECM connector.
HINT:
The correct waveforms are as shown.
NG Check and replace ECM (See page IN28).
OK
6 Disconnect igniter connector, and check voltage between terminals IGT1 IGT3
of ECM connector and body ground.
PREPARATION:
(a) Disconnect the igniter connector.
(b) Remove the glove compartment (See page SF58).
CHECK:
Measure the voltage between terminals IGT1 IGT3 of the
ECM connector and the body ground when the engine is
cranked.
OK:
Voltage: More than 0.1 V and less than 5.0 V
NG Check and replace ECM (See page IN28).
OK
7 Check voltage between terminal 9 of igniter connector and body ground.
PREPARATION:
Disconnect the igniter connector.
CHECK:
Measure the voltage between terminal 9 of the igniter connec-
tor and the body ground when the ignition switch is turned to ON
and START position.
OK:
Voltage: 9 14 V
NG Check and repair igniter power source circuit.
