GDI General Information

GENERAL INFORMATION
The Gasoline Direct Injection System consists
of sensors which detect the engine conditions,
the engine-ECU which controls the system
based on signals from these sensors, and
actuators which operate under the control of
the engine-ECU. The engine-ECU carries out
FUEL INJECTION CONTROL
The injector drive times and injector timing are
controlled so that the optimum air/fuel mixture
is supplied to the engine to correspond to the
continually-changing engine operation conditions.
A single injector for each cylinder is mounted
at the cylinder head. The fuel is sent under
pressure from the fuel tank to the fuel pressure
regulator (low pressure) by the fuel pump (low
pressure). The pressure is regulated by the fuel
pressure regulator (low pressure) and the fuel
regulated is then sent to the fuel pump (high
pressure). The fuel under increased pressure
generated by the fuel pump (high pressure) is
then regulated by the fuel pressure regulator
(high pressure) and is then distributed to each
of the injectors via the delivery pipes.
THROTTLE VALVE OPENING ANGLE CONTROL
This system controls throttle valve opening
angle electronically. The engine-ECU determines how deeply the accelerator pedal is
depressed by means of the accelerator position
sensor (APS). Then the engine-ECU sends a
IDLE SPEED CONTROL
This system maintains engine idle speed at a
predetermined condition by controlling the air
flow that passes through the throttle valve
according to engine idling condition and engine
loads at idling.
The engine-ECU operates the throttle valve
control servo so that engine speed is maintained
IGNITION TIMING CONTROL
The power transistor located in the ignition
primary circuit turns ON and OFF to control
the primary current flow to the ignition coil. This
controls the ignition timing in order to provide
the optimum ignition timing with respect to the
engine operating conditions. The ignition timing
activities such as fuel injection control, idle

speed control and ignition timing control. In
addition, the engine-ECU is equipped with
several diagnosis modes which simplify
troubleshooting when a problem develops.
Fuel injection is normally carried out once for

each cylinder for every two rotations of the
crankshaft. The firing order is 1-3-4-2. This is
called sequential fuel injection.
When the engine is cold or under a severe load,
the open-loop control keeps the air/fuel ratio
at a richer than usual level to maintain
driveability. When the engine is under low or
medium loads, the air/fuel ratio becomes leaner
to reduce fuel consumption. When the engine
is running at medium or high loads after having
warmed up, the closed-loop control uses the
signal from the oxygen sensor to keep the
air/fuel ratio at the optimum theoretical level.
target value of the throttle valve opening angle

to the throttle valve controller. The throttle valve
control servo operates the throttle valve so that
it reaches the target opening angle.
within a map value. The map value is

predetermined according to engine coolant
temperature and air-conditioning load. In
addition, if the A/C switch is turned on or off
during engine idling, the engine-ECU
compensates the engine speed by operating
the throttle valve control servo as necessary.
is determined by the engine-ECU from the

engine speed, intake air volume, engine coolant
temperature, atmospheric pressure and
injection timing (intake stroke or compression
stroke).

Driving
Symptom
Wont start
The starter is used to crank the engine, but there is no combustion within the
cylinders, and the engine wont start.
Fires up and dies
There is combustion within the cylinders, but then the engine soon stalls.
Hard starting
Engine starts after cranking a while.
Hunting
Engine speed doesnt remain constant; changes at idle.
Rough idle
Usually, a judgement can be based upon the movement of the tachometer

pointer, and the vibration transmitted to the steering wheel, shift lever, body, etc.
This is called rough idle.
Incorrect idle speed
The engine doesnt idle at the usual correct speed.
Engine stall
(Die out)
The engine stalls when the foot is taken from the accelerator pedal, regardless
of whether the vehicles is moving or not.
Engine stall
(Pass out)
The engine stalls when the accelerator pedal is depressed or while it is being
used.
Hesitation, Sag
Hesitation is the delay in response

of the vehicle speed (engine speed)
that occurs when the accelerator is
depressed in order to accelerate
from the speed at which the vehicle
is now traveling, or a temporary drop
in vehicle speed (engine speed)
during such acceleration.
Serious hesitation is called sag.
Hesitation
Normal
Vehicle Initial acspeed celerator
pedal depression
Sag
Time
Poor acceleration
Poor acceleration is inability to obtain an acceleration corresponding to the

degree of throttle opening, even though acceleration is smooth, or the inability
to reach maximum speed.

A sharp sound like a hammer striking the cylinder walls during driving and which
adversely affects driving.
Run on

The condition in which the engine continues to run after the ignition switch is
turned to OFF. Also called Dieseling.

On vehicles with multi center display, if a malfunction cannot be resolved after the procedure above, check
the multi center display and replace if necessary. (Refer to GROUP 54 Multi center display.)
The engine warning lamp does not illuminate right after
the ignition switch is turned to the ON position.
Probable cause
Because there is a burnt-out bulb, the engine-ECU causes the engine warning lamp
to illuminate for five seconds immediately after the ignition switch is turned to ON.
If the engine warning lamp does not illuminate immediately after the ignition switch
is turned to ON, one of the malfunctions listed at right has probably occurred.

Fans (radiator fan, A/C condenser fan) are inoperative.
Probable cause
The engine-ECU sends a duty signal to the fan controller according to engine coolant
temperature, vehicle speed, or A/C switch.
The fan controller controls radiator fan and condenser fan speeds, based on this
signal. (The closer the terminal voltage comes to 5 V, the higher the fan speed
becomes.)

Caution
When shifting the select lever to D range, the brakes should be applied so that the vehicle does
not move forward.
NOTE
*1: Within four minutes after starting the engine
*2: In a new vehicle [driven approximately 500 km or less], the injector drive time is sometimes 10% longer
than the standard time.
*3: The accelerator pedal position switch normally turns off when the voltage of the accelerator pedal
position sensor (1st channel) is 250 550 mV higher than the voltage at the idle position. If the accelerator
pedal position switch turns back on after the accelerator pedal position sensor voltage has risen by
100 mV and the throttle valve has opened, the accelerator pedal position switch and the accelerator
pedal position sensor (1st channel) need to be adjusted.

CHECK CHART FOR RESISTANCE AND CONTINUITY

BETWEEN TERMINALS
1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2. Disconnect the engine-ECU connector.
3. Measure the resistance and check for continuity between
the terminals of the engine-ECU harness-side connector
while referring to the check chart.
NOTE
(1) When measuring resistance and checking continuity,
a harness for checking contact pin pressure should
be used instead of inserting a test probe.
(2) Checking need not be carried out in the order given
in the chart.
Caution
If the terminals that should be checked are mistaken,
or if connector terminals are not correctly shorted
to earth, damage may be caused to the vehicle wiring,
sensors, engine-ECU and/or ohmmeter.
Be careful to prevent this!
4. If the ohmmeter shows any deviation from the standard
value, check the corresponding sensor, actuator and
related electrical wiring, and then repair or replace.
5. After repair or replacement, recheck with the ohmmeter
to confirm that the repair or replacement has corrected
the problem.

NOTE
1. If the engine warning lamp illuminates because of a malfunction of the engine-ECU, communication
between MUT-II and the engine-ECU is impossible. In this case, the diagnosis code cannot be read.
2. After the engine-ECU has detected a malfunction, the engine warning lamp illuminates when the engine
is next turned on and the same malfunction is re-detected. However, for items marked with a
in the diagnosis code number column, the engine warning lamp illuminates only on the first detection
of the malfunction.
As for P1220, P1221, P1223, P1224, and P1228, the engine warning lamp flashes. If malfunctions
are detected at the throttle position sensor (1st channel) and the throttle position sensor (2nd channel)
at the same time, or malfunctions are detected at the accelerator pedal position sensor (1st channel)
and the accelerator pedal position sensor (2nd channel) at the same time, the engine warning lamp
will flash.
3. After the engine warning lamp illuminates, it will be switched off under the following conditions.
(1) When the engine-ECU monitored the power train malfunction three times* and met set condition
requirements, it detected no malfunction.
*: In this case, one time indicates from engine start to stop.
(2) For misfiring malfunction, when driving conditions (engine speed, engine coolant temperature, etc.)
are similar to those when the malfunction was first recorded.
4. Sensor 1 indicates the sensor mounted at a position closest to the engine, and sensor 2 indicates
the sensor mounted at the position second closest to the engine.

1. Carry out inspection by means of the data list and the
actuator test function. If there is an abnormality, check
and repair the chassis harnesses and components.
2. After repairing, re-check using the MUT-II and check that
the abnormal input and output have returned to normal
as a result of the repairs.
3. Erase the diagnosis code memory.
4. Remove the MUT-II, and then start the engine again and
carry out a road test to confirm that the problem has
disappeared.

FREEZE FRAME DATA

When the engine-ECU detects a malfunction and stores a
diagnosis code, it also stores a current status of the engine.
This function is called Freeze frame data. By analyzing
this freeze frame data with the MUT-II, an effective
troubleshooting can be performed.
The display items of freeze frame data are shown below.

READINESS TEST STATUS
The engine-ECU monitors the following main diagnosis items,
judges if these items are in good condition or not, and the
stores its history. This history can be read out by using MUT-II.
(If the ECU has judged a item before, the MUT-II displays
Complete.)
In addition, if diagnosis codes are erased or the battery cable
is disconnected, this history will also be erased (the memory
will be reset).

*1: Within four minutes after starting the engine
*2: In a new vehicle [driven approximately 500 km or less], the injector drive time is sometimes 10 %
longer than the standard time.
*3: The accelerator pedal position switch normally turns off when the voltage of the accelerator pedal
position sensor (1st channel) is 200 600 mV higher than the voltage at the idle position. If the accelerator
pedal position switch turns back on after the accelerator pedal position sensor voltage has risen by

CHECK CHART FOR RESISTANCE AND CONTINUITY

BETWEEN TERMINALS
2. Disconnect the engine-ECU connector.
3. Measure the resistance and check for continuity between
the terminals of the engine-ECU harness-side connector
while referring to the check chart.
NOTE
(1) When measuring resistance and checking continuity,
a harness for checking contact pin pressure should
be used instead of inserting a test probe.
(2) Checking need not be carried out in the order given
in the chart.
Caution
If the terminals that should be checked are mistaken,
or if connector terminals are not correctly shorted
to earth, damage may be caused to the vehicle wiring,
sensors, engine-ECU and/or ohmmeter.
Be careful to prevent this!
4. If the ohmmeter shows any deviation from the standard
value, check the corresponding sensor, actuator and
related electrical wiring, and then repair or replace.
5. After repair or replacement, recheck with the ohmmeter
to confirm that the repair or replacement has corrected
the problem.

DRIVE CYCLE
Performing the running test of the car using the following five drive cycle patterns makes it possible to
monitor all the diagnosis codes that are required for operation of the car in order to determine if the
applicable system is operating properly or not.
In other words, doing such a drive allows to regenerate any kind of trouble which involves illuminating the
Engine Warning Lamp (Check Engine Lamp) and to verify the repair procedure has eliminated the trouble
[the Engine Warning Lamp (Check Engine Lamp) is no longer illuminated].
Caution
Two technicians should always be in the vehicle when carrying out a test drive.
NOTE
Check that the diagnosis code is not output before traveling in the Drive cycle pattern. Erase the diagnosis
code if it has been output.
