Engine Control System





2AR-FE ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM: SFI SYSTEM: P0560: System Voltage
P0560 - System Voltage

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

The battery supplies electricity to the ECM even when the ignition switch is off. This power allows the ECM to store data such as DTC history, freeze frame data and fuel trim values. If the battery voltage falls below a minimum level, the memory is cleared and the ECM determines that there is a malfunction in the power supply circuit. When the engine is next started, the ECM illuminates the MIL and stores the DTC.





HINT
If DTC P0560 is stored, the ECM does not store other DTCs or the data stored in the ECM is partly cleared.

TYPICAL MALFUNCTION THRESHOLDS





CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN





1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the Techstream on.

3. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure) Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

4. Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.

5. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the Techstream on [A].

6. Wait 5 seconds or more.

7. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.

8. Input the DTC: P0560.

9. Check the DTC judgment result [B].





HINT
If the judgment result shows ABNORMAL, the system has a malfunction.

10. If the test result is UNKNOWN, enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes / Pending.

11. Read Pending DTCs.

HINT
If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.

12. If the test result is INCOMPLETE or UNKNOWN and no pending DTC is output, perform a universal trip and check for permanent DTCs Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

HINT
* If a permanent DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
* If no permanent DTC is output, the system is normal.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT
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 be helpful in determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, whether the engine was warmed up or not, whether the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data recorded at the time of a malfunction.

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

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ECM - BATTERY)

(a) Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

(b) Disconnect the positive (+) battery terminal.

(c) Disconnect the ECM connector.

(d) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance (Check for Open):





Standard Resistance (Check for Short):





(e) Reconnect the ECM connector.

(f) Reconnect the positive battery terminal.

(g) Reconnect the negative battery terminal.

NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (ECM - EFI NO. 1 FUSE)
OK -- Continue to next step.

2. INSPECT BATTERY

(a) Check that the battery is not depleted.

OK:

Battery is not depleted

NG -- REPLACE BATTERY
OK -- Continue to next step.

3. CHECK BATTERY TERMINAL

(a) Check that the battery terminals are not loose or corroded.

OK:

Battery terminals are not loose or corroded

NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE BATTERY TERMINAL
OK -- Continue to next step.

4. CHECK WHETHER DTC OUTPUT RECURS

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

(c) Turn the Techstream on.

(d) Clear the DTCs Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

(e) Turn the ignition switch off and turn the Techstream off.

(f) Start the engine and turn the Techstream on.

(g) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes.

(h) Read the DTCs.

Result:





B -- CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS Check for Intermittent Problems

A -- REPLACE ECM Removal
