DESCRIPTION

When the engine misfires, high concentrations of hydrocarbons (HC) enter the exhaust gas. Extremely high hydrocarbon concentration levels can cause an increase in exhaust emission levels. Extremely high concentrations of hydrocarbons can also cause increases in the three-way catalytic converter temperature, which may cause damage to the three-way catalytic converter. To prevent this increase in emissions and to limit the possibility of thermal damage, the ECM monitors the misfire count. When the temperature of the three-way catalytic converter reaches the point of thermal degradation, the ECM blinks the MIL. To monitor misfires, the ECM uses both the camshaft position sensor and the crankshaft position sensor. The camshaft position sensor is used to identify any misfiring cylinders and the crankshaft position sensor is used to measure variations in the crankshaft rotation speed. Misfires are counted when the crankshaft rotation speed variations exceed predetermined thresholds. If the misfire count exceeds the threshold levels, and could cause emission control system performance deterioration, the ECM illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The ECM illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC when either one of the following conditions, which could cause emission deterioration, is detected (2 trip detection logic).

  • Within the first 1000 crankshaft revolutions after the engine starts, an excessive number of misfires (approximately 10 to 70 misfires per 1000 crankshaft revolutions) occurs once.
  • An excessive number of misfires (approximately 10 to 70 misfires per 1000 crankshaft revolutions) occurs a total of 4 times.

The ECM flashes the MIL (immediate detection logic) and stores a DTC (2 trip detection logic) when either one of the following conditions, which could cause damage to the three-way catalytic converter, is detected.

  • At a high engine speed, a sufficient amount of misfires to damage the catalyst occurring within 200 crankshaft revolutions is detected once.
  • At a normal engine speed, a sufficient amount of misfires to damage the catalyst occurring within 200 crankshaft revolutions is detected 3 times.

Misfire Monitor for Mexico Models:

HINT:

  • When clearing the permanent DTCs, refer to the "CLEAR PERMANENT DTC" procedure.

  • Permanent misfire and fuel system DTCs can only be cleared when performing the universal trip driving pattern when no malfunction is detected.
  1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
  2. Turn the power switch on (IG).
  3. Turn the Techstream on.
  4. Record the DTC(s) and Freeze Frame Data.
  5. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
  6. Put the engine in Inspection Mode (Maintenance Mode).

    Click here 2018 - 2024 MY Camry HV [07/2017 -        ]; INTRODUCTION: REPAIR INSTRUCTION: INSPECTION MODE PROCEDURE

  7. Using the Techstream, switch the ECM from normal mode to check mode.

    Click here 2018 - 2024 MY Camry HV [07/2017 -        ]; A25A-FXS (ENGINE CONTROL): SFI SYSTEM: CHECK MODE PROCEDURE

  8. Start the engine.
  9. Read the misfire counts of each cylinder, Misfire Count Cylinder #1 to Misfire Count Cylinder #4, with the engine idling. If any misfire count is displayed, skip the following confirmation driving pattern.
  10. Drive the vehicle so that the vehicle conditions displayed in Misfire RPM and Misfire Load of the Data List are the same as the Freeze Frame Data. Perform this step several times.

    HINT:

    In order to store misfire DTCs, it is necessary to operate the vehicle for the period of time shown in the table below, confirm the Misfire RPM and Misfire Load in the Data List.

  11. Check whether misfires have occurred by checking DTCs and Freeze Frame Data.

    HINT:

    Do not turn the power switch off until the output DTC(s) and Freeze Frame Data have been recorded. When the ECM returns to normal mode (default), the stored DTC(s), Freeze Frame Data and other data are cleared.

  12. Record the DTC(s), Freeze Frame Data and misfire counts.
  13. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
  14. Turn the power switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.

HINT:

  • In the past, when the primary ignition system (the igniter drive circuit in the ECM, the primary circuit in the ignition coil assembly, the related wire harness, or the connector) was out of order, diagnostic codes from P035113 to P035413 were output. However, these codes are not output in this vehicle.

    When a failure in the primary ignition system is suspected, refer to "Catalyst OT Misfire Fuel Cut History", "Catalyst OT Misfire Fuel Cut Cylinder #1 to #4", and "Misfire Count Cylinder #1 to #4" in the Freeze Frame Data, the pending Freeze Frame Data, and the Data List, and confirm in which cylinder the high-frequency misfire was concentrated.

  • Referring to the following contents of the Freeze Frame Data (or the pending Freeze Frame Data) enables an estimation of which cylinder has misfired and to what degree.
    • Misfire Count Cylinder #1 to #4: Misfire count according to cylinder.
    • Catalyst OT Misfire Fuel Cut Cylinder #1 to #4: This expresses a high-frequency misfire was concentrated in a certain cylinder and that cylinder's fuel injection was stopped.
  • If any DTCs other than misfire DTCs are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.
  • If the misfire does not recur when the vehicle is brought to the workshop, reproduce the conditions stored in the ECM as Freeze Frame Data.
  • If the misfire still cannot be reproduced even though the conditions stored in the ECM as Freeze Frame Data have been reproduced, one of the following factors is considered to be a possible cause of the problem:
    1. There was insufficient fuel in the tank.
    2. Improper fuel was used.
    3. The spark plugs have been contaminated.
    4. The problem requires further diagnosis.
  • After finishing repairs, check the misfire counts of the cylinders (Misfire Count Cylinder #1 to Misfire Count Cylinder #4).
  • Be sure to confirm that no misfiring cylinder DTCs are stored again by performing the confirmation driving pattern after finishing repairs.
  • When one of Short FT B1S1, Long FT B1S1 in the Freeze Frame Data is outside the range of +/-20%, the air fuel ratio may be rich (-20% or less) or lean (+20% or higher).
  • When Coolant Temperature in the Freeze Frame Data is less than 75°C (167°F), the misfires have occurred only while warming up the engine.
  • Vehicle body vibration caused by an extremely imbalanced drive wheel may cause misfire DTCs to be stored.
  • Read Freeze Frame Data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as Freeze Frame Data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, Freeze Frame Data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
