DTC P0203:00 [PCM (SKYACTIV-X)]


 id0102u9148100


Outline

System malfunction location

Fuel injector circuit/open cylinder No.3

Detection condition
•  If the fuel injection verification signal is not input at 25 times continuously even though the PCM drives the fuel injector No.3, the PCM determines that there is an open circuit in the fuel injector No.3 control circuit.
Precondition
•  Battery voltage: 10.5 V or more
•  Fuel injection control: except during fuel cut
Fail-safe
•  Performs fuel injection in cylinders that are not misfiring.
Possible cause
•  Fuel injector No.3 connector or terminals malfunction
•  PCM connector or terminals malfunction
•  Short to ground in any of the following fuel injector No.3 circuits.
―  Control (+) circuit
―  Control (−) circuit
•  Short to power supply in fuel injector No.3 control (−) circuit
•  Open circuit in any of the following fuel injector No.3 circuits.
―  Control (+) circuit
―  Control (−) circuit
•  Fuel injector No.3 malfunction
•  PCM malfunction


Diagnostic Procedure

Step

Inspection

Results

Action

1
RECORD VEHICLE STATUS WHEN DTC WAS DETECTED TO UTILIZE WITH REPEATABILITY VERIFICATION
•  Record the freeze frame data/snapshot data.
Note
•  Recording can be facilitated using the screen capture function of the PC.
Go to the next step.
2
VERIFY RELATED REPAIR INFORMATION OR SERVICE INFORMATION AVAILABILITY
•  Verify related Service Bulletins, on-line repair information, or Service Information availability.

•  Inspect the applicable connector and terminal.
•  Are the connector and terminal normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.
4
INSPECT PCM CONNECTOR FOR MALFUNCTION
•  Inspect the applicable connector and terminal.
•  Are the connector and terminal normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.
5

Repair completion verification 1
VERIFY THAT VEHICLE IS REPAIRED
•  Install/connect the part removed/disconnected during the troubleshooting procedure.
•  Clear the DTC recorded in the memory.
•  Replicate the vehicle conditions at the time the DTC was detected using the following procedure.
―  Perform the KOEO or KOER self test.
•  Perform the DTC inspection for the PCM.
•  Is the same Pending DTC present?
Yes
Refer to the controller area network (CAN) malfunction diagnosis flow to inspect for a CAN communication error.
If the CAN communication is normal, perform the diagnosis from Step 1.
•  If the malfunction recurs, replace the PCM, then go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
Repair completion verification 2
VERIFY IF OTHER DTCs DISPLAYED
