Hint:
- Use the table below to help determine the cause of the problem symptom. The potential causes of the symptoms are listed in order of probability in the "suspected area" column of the table. Check each symptom by checking the suspected areas in the order they are listed. Replace parts as necessary.
- The matrix chart is divided into 2 chapters. When troubleshooting, check chapter 1 first. If instructions are given in chapter 1 to proceed to 2, proceed as instructed.
- If the instruction "proceed to next circuit inspection shown in problem symptoms table" is given in the flowchart for each circuit, proceed to the next suspected area in the table.
- If the problem still occurs even though there are no malfunctions in any of the circuits, check the ecm and replace it if necessary.

Random / multiple cylinder misfire detected
Description
When the engine misfires, high concentrations of hydrocarbons (hc) enter the
exhaust gas. Extremely
high hc concentration levels can cause increases in exhaust emission levels.
High concentrations of hc
can also cause increases in the three-way catalytic converter (twc) te ...
Master cylinder pressure sensor malfunction
Description
The master cylinder pressure sensor is connected to the skid control ecu in
the abs and traction
actuator.
Dtc c1281/81 can be detected when the master cylinder pressure sensor sends a
master cylinder
pressure signal or test mode ends. Dtc c1281/81 is output only in test mo ...
Oxygen (a/f) sensor signal stuck
Hint:
Although the dtc titles say oxygen sensor, these dtcs relate to the
air-fuel ratio (a/f) sensor.
Sensor 1 refers to the sensor mounted in front of the three-way
catalytic converter (twc) and
located near the engine assembly.
Description
The a/f sensor generates a voltage* ...
