Cylinder No.3 misfire detected

DTC P0304:00

Cylinder No.4 misfire detected
DETECTION CONDITION
•  The PCM monitors the CKP sensor input signal interval time. The PCM calculates the change of interval time for each cylinder. If the change of interval time exceeds the preprogrammed criteria, the PCM detects a misfire in the corresponding cylinder. While the engine is running, the PCM counts the number of misfires that occurred at 200 crankshaft revolutions and 1,000 crankshaft revolutions and calculates the misfire ratio for each crankshaft revolution. If the ratio exceeds the preprogrammed criteria, the PCM determines that a misfire, which can damage the catalytic converter or affect emission performance, has occurred.
Diagnostic support note
•  This is a continuous monitor (misfire).
•  The check engine light illuminates if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition in two consecutive drive cycles or in one drive cycle while the DTC for the same malfunction has been stored in the PCM.
•  The check engine light flashes if the PCM detects the misfire which can damage the catalytic converter during first drive cycle.
•  PENDING CODE is available if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition during the first drive cycle.
•  FREEZE FRAME DATA (Mode 2)/Snapshot data is available.
•  DTC is stored in the PCM memory.

•  Erratic signal to PCM
―  APP sensor signal malfunction

•  Verify the related PENDING CODE and stored DTCs using the M-MDS.
•  Are any other DTCs present?
Yes
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
(See DTC TABLE [MZR 1.6].)
No
Go to the next step.
4
VERIFY CURRENT INPUT SIGNAL STATUS (IGNITION SWITCH TO ON/IDLE)
•  Perform the PID/DATA Monitor and Record Procedure and access the following PIDs using the M-MDS:
―  APP1
―  APP2
―  ECT
―  IAT
―  MAF
―  RPM
―  TP REL
―  VSS
•  Is there any signal that is far out of specification when the ignition is switched ON and the engine idles?
Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results, then go to Step 14.
No
Go to the next step.
5
VERIFY CURRENT INPUT SIGNAL STATUS UNDER FREEZE FRAME DATA (MODE 2) CONDITION
•  Perform the PID/DATA Monitor and Record Procedure and access the same PIDs as in Step 4 under the FREEZE FRAME DATA (Mode 2) conditions.
•  Is there any signal which causes drastic changes?
Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results, then go to Step 14.
No
Go to the next step.
6
INSPECT FOR AIR SUCTION AT INTAKE-AIR SYSTEM
•  Inspect for air leakage at the following:
―  Around connection of dynamic chamber and intake manifold
―  Around connection of intake manifold and cylinder head
Note
•  Engine speed may change when rust penetrating agent is sprayed on the air suction area.
•  Is there air leakage?
Yes
Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the inspection results, then go to Step 14.
No
Go to the next step.
7
INSPECT WHETHER MALFUNCTION IS IN IGNITION SYSTEM OR ELSEWHERE
•  Carry out the spark test.
•  Is the strong blue spark visible at each cylinder?
Yes
Go to Step 10.
No
Go to the next step.
8
INSPECT SPARK PLUG CONDITION
•  Switch the ignition off.
•  Remove the spark plug from suspected cylinder.
•  Inspect the suspected spark plug.
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Replace the suspected spark plug, then go to Step 14.
(See SPARK PLUG REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [MZR 1.6].)
No
Go to the next step.
9
INSPECT IGNITION COIL
•  Inspect the suspected ignition coil.
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Replace the suspected ignition coil, then go to Step 14.
(See IGNITION COIL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [MZR 1.6].)

Go to Step 14.
10
INSPECT FUEL INJECTOR RELATED WIRING HARNESS
•  Remove the intake air system parts.
•  Disconnect the fuel injector connector on suspected cylinder.
•  Connect the noid light to the fuel injector connector terminals.
•  Inspect dim of light during cranking.
•  Does the noid light illuminate?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Inspect the fuel injector related wiring harness.
•  Repair or replace the suspected wiring harness, if necessary.
