DTC P007C:00 [SKYACTIV-D 1.5]

id0102q2210800

DTC P007C:00

Boost air temperature sensor circuit low input
DETECTION CONDITION
•  If the PCM detects that the boost air temperature sensor voltage at the PCM terminal 1N is 0.15 V or less for 5 s with the following condition met, the PCM determines that the boost air temperature sensor circuit voltage is low.
MONITORING CONDITIONS
―  Battery voltage: 8—20 V
―  0.5 s have elapsed after the ignition was switched ON (engine off or on)
Diagnostic support note
•  This is a continuous monitor (CCM).
•  The check engine light illuminates if the PCM detects the above malfunction condition during the first drive cycle.
•  FREEZE FRAME DATA/Snapshot data is available.
•  DTC is stored in the PCM memory.
FAIL-SAFE FUNCTION
•  PCM restricts engine torque.
•  Inhibits the EGR control.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  Intake air temperature is too high
•  MAP sensor/boost air temperature sensor connector or terminals malfunction
•  Boost air temperature sensor malfunction
•  Short to ground in wiring harness between MAP sensor/boost air temperature sensor terminal B and PCM terminal 1N
•  PCM connector or terminals malfunction
•  Boost air temperature sensor signal circuit and ground circuit are shorted to each other
•  PCM malfunction

Diagnostic Procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION
1
RECORD VEHICLE STATUS AT TIME OF DTC DETECTION TO UTILIZE WITH REPEATABILITY VERIFICATION
Note
•  Recording can be facilitated using the screen capture function of the PC.
•  Record the FREEZE FRAME DATA/snapshot data on the repair order.

Go to the next step.
2
VERIFY RELATED SERVICE INFORMATION AVAILABILITY
•  Verify related Service Information availability.
•  Is any related Service Information available?
Yes
Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available Service Information.
•  If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
3
INSPECT MAP SENSOR/BOOST AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR CONNECTOR CONDITION
•  Switch the ignition off.
•  Disconnect the MAP sensor/boost air temperature sensor connector.
•  Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion).
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair or replace the connector and/or terminals, then go to Step 8.
No
Go to the next step.
4
DETERMINE IF BOOST AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR OR WIRING HARNESS MALFUNCTION
•  Verify that the MAP sensor/boost air temperature sensor connector is disconnected.
•  Switch the ignition ON (engine off).
Note
•  Another DTC may be stored by the PCM detecting an open circuit.
•  Measure the voltage at the MAP sensor/boost air temperature sensor terminal B (wiring harness-side).
•  Is the voltage approx. 5 V?
Yes
Replace the MAP sensor/boost air temperature sensor, then go to Step 8.
(See MANIFOLD ABSOLUTE PRESSURE (MAP) SENSOR/BOOST AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-D 1.5].)
No
Go to the next step.
5
INSPECT BOOST AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND
•  Verify that the MAP sensor/boost air temperature sensor connector is disconnected.
•  Switch the ignition off.
•  Inspect for continuity between MAP sensor/boost air temperature sensor terminal B (wiring harness-side) and body ground.
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Disconnect the PCM connector and inspect the wiring harness for short to ground.
•  If the short to ground circuit could be detected in the wiring harness:
―  Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between MAP sensor/boost air temperature sensor terminal B and PCM terminal 1N.
If there is a common connector:
•  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground.
•  Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.
If there is no common connector:
•  Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a short to ground.
•  If the short to ground circuit could not be detected in the wiring harness:
―  Replace the PCM (short to ground in the PCM internal circuit).
Go to Step 8.
No
Go to the next step.
6
INSPECT PCM CONNECTOR CONDITION
•  Disconnect the PCM connector.
•  Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion).
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair or replace the connector and/or terminals, then go to Step 8.
No
Go to the next step.
7
INSPECT BOOST AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT AND GROUND CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO EACH OTHER
•  Verify that the MAP sensor/boost air temperature sensor and PCM connectors are disconnected.
•  Inspect for continuity between MAP sensor/boost air temperature sensor terminals B and A (wiring harness-side).
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between the following terminals:
•  MAP sensor/boost air temperature sensor terminal B—PCM terminal 1N
•  MAP sensor/boost air temperature sensor terminal A—PCM terminal 1BB
If there is a common connector:
•  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to each other.
•  Repair or replace the malfunctioning part.
If there is no common connector:
•  Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a short to each other.
Go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
8
VERIFY DTC TROUBLESHOOTING COMPLETED
•  Always reconnect all disconnected connectors.
•  Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS.
•  Perform the KOEO or KOER self test.
•  Is the same DTC present?
Yes
Repeat the inspection from Step 1.
•  If the malfunction recurs, replace the PCM.
Go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
9
VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE
•  Perform the “AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE”.
•  Are any DTCs present?
Yes
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
(See DTC TABLE [SKYACTIV-D 1.5].)
No
DTC troubleshooting completed.
