Driving Pattern C

Driving pattern C means the vehicle operation as follows:

The following conditions should be satisfied at the same time:

Engine speed: (Engine speed in the freeze frame data) +/- 375 RPM

Calculated load value: (Calculated load value in the freeze frame data) x (1+/- 0.1) [%]

Engine coolant temperature (T) condition:

• When the freeze frame data shows lower than 70° C (158° F), T should be lower than 70° C (158° F).
• When the freeze frame data shows higher than or equal to 70° C (158° F), T should be higher than or equal to 70° C (158° F).

Example:

If the stored freeze frame data is as follows:

Engine speed: 850 RPM, Calculated load value: 30%, Engine coolant temperature: 80° C (176° F)

To be satisfied with driving pattern C, the vehicle should run under the following conditions:

Engine speed: 475 -- 1,225 RPM, Calculated load value: 27 -- 33%, Engine coolant temperature: more than 70° C (158° F)

• The C counter will be cleared when the malfunction is detected regardless of vehicle conditions above.
• The C counter will be counted up when vehicle conditions above is satisfied without the same malfunction.
• The DTC will not be displayed after C counter reaches 80.
• The 1st trip DTC will be cleared when C counter is counted once without the same malfunction after DTC is stored in ECM.
