DTC Troubleshooting: P0A11(2.0L Engine): Inspection

DC_STS Circuit Inspection 

NOTICE: 

Before disconnecting the PCM connector, jump the SCS line with the HDS, and wait more than 1 minute.

Test Procedure 

• Preparation
• • DC-DC converter connector A (3P): disconnected
  • PCM connector A (50P): disconnected

• Procedure
• • Perform the inspection according to the following table.

			(Disconnected)DC-DC converter connector A (3P)female terminals	(Disconnected) PCM connector A (50P) - Refer to: PCM Connector for Inputs and Outputs(3.0L Engine) or PCM Connector for Inputs and Outputs(2.0L Engine) female terminals

	DC_STS open wire inspection	OFF			There is less than 1 Ohm
	NOTE: Refer to the Open/Shorted Wire Inspection Description for the method to inspect the shorted circuit below, then start to inspect according to circumstances.
	DC_STS shorted to power inspection	ON			Not shorted

Results 

• If abnormal, there is a problem in the circuit.

DC-DC Converter Inspection 

Test Procedure 

• Install a known-good DC-DC converter and attempt to reproduce the failure.

Results 

• If the failure is reproduced, there is a problem with other related components.
• If the symptom/DTC goes away, the DC-DC converter must be faulty.

PCM Inspection 

Test Procedure 

• If the other inspection item(s) indicated a normal condition, then it is determined that the remaining PCM is the cause.

Results 

• There is a problem with the PCM.
