Toyota Corolla Cross: Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected (P030000,P030027,P030085-P030400)

Toyota Corolla Cross (2022-2024) Service Manual / Engine & Hybrid System / M20a-fks (engine Control) / Sfi System / Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected (P030000,P030027,P030085-P030400)

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.

CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN

HINT:

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

    Click here

  • 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 GTS to the DLC3.
  2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
  3. Turn the GTS 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. Using the GTS, switch the ECM from normal mode to check mode.

    Click here

  7. Start the engine.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.

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

    HINT:

    Do not turn the ignition 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.

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

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.

HINT:

  • Check the "Fuel Cut Elapsed Time" in the Data List or the Freeze Frame Data.

    If the elapsed time is over 0 seconds, then the engine speed is high (engine speed at which fuel cut occurs + 500 rpm).

    When this has happened, there is the possibility that the No. 1 valve rocker arm sub-assembly will become loose and a fire could start, so check that the No. 1 valve rocker arm sub-assembly is properly attached.

  • By clearing the DTCs, "Fuel Cut Elapsed Time" will be cleared.
  • 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 GTS. 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.
