Definitions |
| Monitor Description | Description of what ECM monitors and how to detect malfunctions (monitoring purpose and details). |
| Related DTCs | A group of diagnostic trouble codes that are output by ECM based on the same malfunction detection logic. |
| Typical Enabling Conditions | Preconditions that allow ECM to detect malfunction.
With all preconditions satisfied, ECM sets DTC when monitored value(s) exceeds malfunction threshold(s). |
| Sequence of Operation | Order of monitor priority, applied if multiple sensors and
components are involved in single malfunction detection
process.
Each sensor and component monitored in turn and not monitored until previous detection operation is completed |
| Required Sensors / Components | Sensors and components used by ECM to detect each malfunction |
| Frequency of Operation | Number of times ECM checks for each malfunction during each driving
cycle.
"Once per driving cycle" means ECM performs checks for that malfunction only once in single driving cycle. "Continuous" means ECM performs checks for that malfunction whenever enabling conditions are met. |
| Duration | Minimum time for which ECM must detect continuous deviation in monitored value(s) in order to set DTC. Timing begins when typical enabling conditions are met. |
| Malfunction Thresholds | Values, beyond which, ECM determines malfunctions exist and sets DTCs. |
| MIL Operation | Timing of MIL illumination after defect is detected.
"Immediate" means ECM illuminates MIL as soon as malfunction is detected. "2 driving cycles" means ECM illuminates MIL if the same malfunction is detected twice during the next sequential driving cycle. |

Intake Air Temperature Sensor Gradient Too High
DESCRIPTION
The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor, mounted on the Mass Air Flow (MAF)
meter, monitors the IAT.
The IAT sensor has a built-in thermistor with a resistance that varies according
to the temperature of the
intake air. When the IAT becomes low, the resistance of the the ...
Fail-safe chart
If any of the following DTCs are set, the ECM enters fail-safe
mode to allow the vehicle to be driven temporarily.
HINT:
*1: The vehicle can be driven slowly when the accelerator
pedal is depressed firmly and slowly. If the accelerator
pedal is depressed quickly, the vehicle may ...
