DIAGNOSTIC CODE CHART (Cont’d)

*1: ”ON” displayed in the diagnosis mode column indicates that the ”CHECK” Engine Warning Light is

lighted up when a malfunction is detected. ”OFF” indicates that the ”CHECK” does not light up during
malfunction diagnosis, even if a malfunction is detected. ”N.A.” indicates that the item is not included
in malfunction diagnosis.

*2: ”O” in the memory column indicates that a diagnostic code is recorded in the ECU memory when a mal-

function occurs. ”X” indicates that a diagnostic code is not recorded in the ECU memory even if a mal-
function occurs. Accordingly, output of diagnostic results in normal or test mode is performed with the
IG switch ON.

*3: Only for USA specification vehicles.

*4:

This indicates items for which ”2 trip detection logic” is used. With this logic, when a logic malfunction is
first detected, the malfunction is temporarily stored in the ECU memory. If the same case is detected again
during the second drive test, this second detection causes the ”CHECK” Engine Warning Light to light up.
The 2 trip repeats the same mode a 2nd time. (However, the IG switch must be turned OFF between the
1st trip and 2nd trip).
In the Test Mode, the ”CHECK” Engine Warning Light lights up the 1st trip a malfunction is detected.
