DTC

P160300

Engine Stall History

DESCRIPTION

If the engine stalls or fails to start while stop and start control is operating, DTC P160300 will be stored. Using the Techstream, the freeze frame data recorded the moment the DTC is stored can be read. Serviceability has been enhanced by enabling the cause of an engine stall or engine start failure which occurred while stop and start control was operating to be checked using the freeze frame data.

Engine Stall History

Both of the following conditions are met for 0.5 seconds or more (1 trip detection logic):

  • Engine stopped by stop and start control and collision or low battery voltage detected.
  • Collision detection signal received from the airbag ECU assembly and mode changed to "stalled"*1.

Both of the following conditions are met for 0.5 seconds or more (1 trip detection logic):

  • Engine being restarted by stop and start control and collision detected.
  • Collision detection signal received from the airbag ECU assembly and mode changed to "stalled"*1.

Both of the following conditions are met for 0.5 seconds or more (1 trip detection logic):

  • Engine being restarted by stop and start control and restart fails.
  • Using the NE signal, complete combustion is identified 0.6 seconds after the engine stop judgment*2 was made or complete combustion does not occur even after the starter assembly has operated for a certain amount of time (NE signal is normal).

Both of the following conditions are met for 0.5 seconds or more (1 trip detection logic):

  • Engine being restarted by stop and start control and restart fails.
  • Engine speed signal from the ECM not received via CAN communication (NE signal is abnormal*3).

Detection Conditions: Always

Sensors/components used for detection: park/neutral position switch assembly, airbag ECU assembly, battery, crankshaft position sensor, STA signal circuit, ECM

  • Wire harness or connector
  • CAN communication system
  • Airbag system
  • SFI system
  • Starter assembly
  • Engine stop and start ECU

SAE Code: P1603

*1: The mode "stalled" represents a state in which engine restart is prohibited/canceled due to a collision being detected and restart is not preferable. In this situation, "IG" is displayed for the Data List item [Stop&Start of Eng State]. If the mode changes to "IG", engine start by stop and start control is prohibited and the engine can only be started by operating the ignition switch (w/o Smart Key System) or push start switch assembly (w/ Smart Key System).

*2: Engine stop judgment is performed to judge whether the engine is stopped completely. The engine stop and start ECU judges that the engine is stopped when it does not receive an engine speed signal (NE signal) from the ECM for 0.6 seconds or more.

*3: The engine stop and start ECU stores DTC P033562.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • Before replacing the engine stop and start ECU, read the number of starter operations and write it into a new engine stop and start ECU.

  • When the starter assembly is replaced, "ST NO. 1 relay" must be also replaced.
  • Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.

HINT:

  • If other DTCs are output, perform troubleshooting for this DTC first.
  • Unlike other DTCs that are stored due to a malfunction in parts, circuits or systems, DTC P160300 allows determination of a malfunctioning part according to problem symptoms and freeze frame data related to a problem recognized by the customer. As this DTC may be stored due to an operation by the customer, it is not necessary to service the vehicle unless the customer recognized a problem. Clear the DTCs and return the vehicle to the customer.
  • Using the Techstream, read the freeze frame data before troubleshooting. System condition information is recorded as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. This information can be useful when troubleshooting.

  • Stop and Start Control Mode Transition:
    • *1: Engine stop conditions are met.
    • *2: Engine stop judgment is determined.
    • *3: Engine start conditions are met before the engine is judged as stopped.
    • *4: Engine start conditions are met.
    • *5: Engine determined to be started (engine speed reaches a specified rpm).
    • *6: Collision detected and mode changed to "stalled".
    • *7: 0.6 seconds elapse after engine stop judgment is established.
    • *8: Engine is started using the ignition switch (w/o Smart Key System) or push start switch assembly (w/ Smart Key System).

PROCEDURE

1.

CHECK DTC OUTPUT (SFI SYSTEM)

(a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

(c) Turn the Techstream on.

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

(e) Read the DTCs.

Powertrain > Engine > Trouble Codes

Result

Proceed to

SFI system DTCs are not output

A

SFI system starting malfunction circuit DTC is output and starter assembly does not operate

SFI system starting malfunction circuit DTC is output and starter assembly operates

B

DTCs other than SFI system starting malfunction circuit DTC are output

HINT:

  • According to the display on the Techstream, check the freeze frame data item [Cranking Time] in the sets of freeze frame data.
  • If the value of [Cranking Time] is approximately 3 seconds, the stop and start control system or starter system may be malfunctioning.
  • If the value of [Cranking Time] is small (approximately 0.5 seconds or less: the minimum value varies depending on the model), the SFI system may be malfunctioning.
  • The Data List item [Cranking Time] indicates the length of time starter operation is requested by the engine stop and start ECU. If the engine speed exceeds the specified value, the engine stop and start ECU cancels its start request.

CHECK FREEZE FRAME DATA

NOTICE:

The freeze frame data is cleared when DTCs are cleared. Be sure to make a note of necessary data in advance.

HINT:

Using the time-series freeze frame data, confirm the freeze frame data recorded the moment the DTC was stored and after the DTC was stored. This information can be useful when troubleshooting.

(a) According to the prompts on the Techstream screen, read the time-series freeze frame data to confirm the vehicle conditions when an engine stall occurred while stop and start control was operating.
