Diagnostic Method 2

Detect the malfunction by the cumulative value obtained from the amount of variation in λ change.

• Abnormality Judgment 

  Judge as NG when the following conditions are established.

  JUDGMENT VALUE CHART
  
  

  Malfunction Criteria	Threshold Value	DTC
  Cumulative value obtained from the amount of variation in λ change Σ |(lambda(n) - lambda(n-1)) - (lambda(n-1) - lambda(n-2))	< Value from Map	P014C, P014D, P014E and P014F

  MAP (BIN5 MODEL) CHART
  
  

  Cumulative value obtained from the amount of variation in λ Σ lambda(n) - lambda(n-1)	0.30	2.00
  Cumulative value obtained from the amount of variation in λ change	0.80	1.50

  MAP (ULEV MODEL) CHART
  
  

  Cumulative value obtained from the amount of variation in λ Σ lambda(n) - lambda(n-1)	0.30	1.20
  Cumulative value obtained from the amount of variation in λ change	0.80	1.00

  Time Needed for Diagnosis:  90 seconds

  Malfunction Indicator Light Illumination:  Illuminates when malfunction occurs in 2 continuous driving cycles.

• Normality Judgment

  Judge as OK and clear the NG if the following conditions are established.
