Toyota Corolla Cross: Barometric Pressure Sensor "A" Circuit Short to Ground (P222611)

DESCRIPTION

The atmospheric pressure sensor is built into the ECM. The ECM provides optimal control in response to atmospheric pressure fluctuations.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

When the ignition switch is turned ON and the output voltage of the atmospheric pressure sensor is less than 1.16 V for 3 seconds or more, the ECM determines that the atmospheric pressure sensor circuit is malfunctioning and illuminates the MIL and stores a DTC.

1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
3. Turn the GTS on.
4. Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
5. Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
6. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
7. Turn the GTS on.
8. Wait 5 seconds or more [A].
9. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes [B].
10. Read the pending DTCs.

    HINT:

    • If a pending DTC is output, the system is malfunctioning.
    • If a pending DTC is not output, perform the following procedure.
11. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.
12. Proceed to the next screen and enter the DTC to be checked.
13. Check the DTC judgment result.

    GTS Display	Description
    NORMAL	DTC judgment completed System normal
    ABNORMAL	DTC judgment completed System abnormal
    INCOMPLETE	DTC judgment not completed Perform driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions

    HINT:

    • If the judgment result is NORMAL, the system is normal.
    • If the judgment result is ABNORMAL, the system is malfunctioning.
    • [A] to [B]: Normal judgment procedure.

      The normal judgment procedure is used to complete DTC judgment and also used when clearing permanent DTCs.

    • When clearing the permanent DTCs, do not disconnect the cable from the auxiliary battery terminal or attempt to clear the DTCs during this procedure, as doing so will clear the universal trip and normal judgment histories.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

HINT:

Read Freeze Frame Data using the GTS. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as Freeze Frame Data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, Freeze Frame Data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.

PROCEDURE

(a) Read the DTCs.
