DTC P0301 CYLINDER 1 MISFIRE DETECTED

DTC P0301 CYLINDER 1 MISFIRE DETECTED

OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS

Detect whether the misfire occurred or not. (Revolution fluctuation method) Monitoring the misfire which influences exhaust deterioration (1.5 times of FTP) and catalyst damage is made obligatory by the law. Misfire affecting these two has three patterns below.


Intermittent misfire (The same cylinder misfires in random, or different cylinders misfire in random.): FTP 1.5 times misfire

Every time misfire (The same cylinder misfires every time.): FTP 1.5 times misfire, Catalyst damage misfire


The following detecting methods are adopted for these detection.

Intermittent misfire: FTP 1.5 times misfire


180° Interval Difference Method (MT: 1,800 rpm or less; AT: None)

360° Interval Difference Method (whole range)

720° Interval Difference Method (3,000 rpm or less)


Every time misfire: FTP 1.5 times misfire, Catalyst damage misfire


360° Interval Difference Method

GENERAL DRIVING CYCLE


Detecting misfire is able to be carried out in the condition between idling and high revolution; however, idling condition is better for detecting misfire from the viewpoint of engine load and damage.

Perform the diagnosis continuously.


DIAGNOSTIC METHOD


(A)

Engine control module (ECM)

(B)

Diagnosis circuit

(C)

Crankshaft position sensor



When the misfire occurred, the engine speed is decreased and the crankshaft position speed will change. Calculate the interval difference value (diagnostic value) from crankshaft position speed by the following formula, and judge whether the misfire occurs or not comparing the calculated result with judgment value. Counting the number of misfire up, and if the misfire ratio is higher during 1,000 rev. or 200 rev., judge NG for the corresponding cylinder.

Calculate the diagnostic value (from crankshaft position speed)



Misfire detection every single ignition (Compare diagnostic value with judgment value)


180° Interval Difference Method

360° Interval Difference Method

720° Interval Difference Method




NG judgment (Judge misfire occurrence required by the law) (Compare number of misfire with judgment)


FTP1.5 times misfire NG judgment

Catalyst damage misfire NG judgment




As the following figure, pick out a random cylinder as the standard and name it omg 0. And the former crankshaft position speed is named omg 1, the second former crankshaft position speed is named omg 2, the third is named omg 3, and the following is the same.


(A)

Ignition order

(B)

Crankshaft position speed



180° Interval Difference Method

Diagnosis value

domg180 = (omg −1 omg 0) − (omg 7 − omg 1)/6

Judge misfire occurs in the following cases.


domg 180 > judgment value of positive side



domg 180 ≤ judgment value of negative side

(judgment value before 180°CA)





360° Interval Difference Method

Diagnosis value domg 360 = (omg 1 − omg 0) − (omg 4 − omg 3)
Misfire judgment

domg 360 > judgment value



Misfire occurs




720° Interval Difference Method

Diagnosis value domg 720 = (omg 1 − omg 0) − (omg 7 − omg 6)
Misfire judgment

domg 720 > judgment value



Misfire occurs




FTP 1.5 times misfire (Misfire occurrence level affecting exhaust gas)

Judgment Value (Judge that malfunction occurs when the misfire ratio is high in 1,000 engine revs.)

Malfunction Criteria Threshold Value
FTP emission judgment value

> 1.0% in 1,000 revs.



Time Needed for Diagnosis: 1,000 engine revs.

Malfunction Indicator Light Illumination: Illuminates when malfunction occurs in 2 continuous driving cycles.

Catalyst damage misfire (Misfire occurrence level damaging catalyst)

Judgment Value (Judge that malfunction occurs when the misfire ratio is high in 200 engine revs. (400 ignitions))

Malfunction Criteria Threshold Value
Catalyst damage misfire judgment value

See Map 1



Map 1 Fault criteria threshold for misfire which would result in catalyst damage


These figures mean the misfire ratio (%) in 400 ignitions; for example, 22.5 (%) means 400 (ignition) × 22.5 (%) = 90 (ignition) or more, so this case is judged misfire.

Time Needed for Diagnosis: 200 engine revs.

Malfunction Indicator Light Illumination: Illuminates when malfunction occurs in 2 continuous driving cycles.
