Troubleshooting item

Description

i-stop warning light (amber) illuminates
•  i-stop warning light (amber) remains illuminated while engine is running.
i-stop warning light (amber) flashes
•  i-stop function is inhibited because an i-stop control system error is detected.
i-stop indicator light (green) flashes
•  i-stop indicator light (green) remains flashing during i-stop.
i-stop function does not operate
•  i-stop function does not operate when vehicle is stopped.
i-stop function operates under no engine-stop conditions
•  i-stop function operates even though system is turned off by pressing i-stop OFF switch.
•  i-stop function operates even though vehicle conditions are for non-operation.
•  i-stop function operates frequently while parking vehicle.
Engine does not restart
•  The engine does not restart after the engine was stopped by the i-stop control.
Limited i-stop function operation time
•  Frequency of which i-stop function operates is low.
•  Frequent occurrence of engine restarting other than for driving vehicle from stop.
Ineffective operation of A/C during engine stop (i-stop system)
•  The A/C airflow temperature is too high or low compared with the set temperature while the i-stop function is operating.
Acceleration malfunction*
•  Acceleration from i-stop is not smooth.
•  Suppresses (shock) when accelerating vehicle from i-stop.
•  Engine vibration increases when engine is restarted.
Vehicle moves when accelerating from standstill on slope*
•  Vehicle slips backwards on inclined road surface when accelerating after i-stop operates.

*  :ATX

i-stop Control

•  The i-stop control is designed to not function (idling stop or engine restart) while the bonnet is open, however, when performing servicing in the engine compartment while a malfunction symptom has being occurred, be careful not to get caught in a rotating part if the engine were too restart accidentally.
•  When performing troubleshooting indicated with an asterisked (*), shake the applicable part, wiring harness, and connector by hand to determine if the malfunction is temporal caused by poor contact. If there is a malfunction in the connectors or terminals, properly connect them and repair or replace if necessary.
•  Engine-stop permit conditions and engine restart conditions by i-stop control as follows:

i-stop (engine stop control)
•  When the i-stop (engine stop control) permit conditions are met, the PCM stops the engine based on the following controls:
―  Fuel injection control (fuel cut)
•  Engine speed is reduced by the fuel cut.
―  Drive-by-wire control (throttle valve open/closed)
•  By adjusting the throttle valve opening angle, the engine speed is reduced and the pumping loss is used to stop the engine.
―  Electric variable valve timing control (intake valve timing retard)
•  Intake valve timing retard is performed for engine restart by i-stop control.

i-stop (engine restart control)
•  When the i-stop (engine restart control) conditions are met, the PCM restarts the engine by the following controls:
―  Fuel injection control (from first time, fuel injection to specific cylinders (expansion stroke)
•  Fuel is injected to cylinders which are determined to be stopped at the expansion stroke. During i-stop control (engine stop), cylinders are identified based on the signal from the crankshaft position sensor and fuel injection is enabled to those cylinders which are identified first as being stopped in the expansion stroke.
