M20D-FKS ENGINE CONTROL SFI SYSTEM P244B00 Particulate Filter Differential Pressure Too High Bank 1
DESCRIPTION
The GPF (Gasoline Particulate Filter) system is an exhaust purification system for processing the PM (Particulate Matter) discharged from the engine. The GPF catalyst has a porous ceramic structure that collects PM, and the collected PM is oxidized as it bonds with oxygen molecules under high temperature. When the fuel cut operation is performed after the GPF rises to a high temperature under high load operation, PM is oxidized, but under low temperature conditions, PM oxidation is insufficient and deposits accumulate. When the GPF is clogged by PM and "Exhaust Filter Full" is displayed on the multi-information display or GPF warning light comes on, perform particulate filter regeneration using the GTS.
A differential pressure sensor is installed to monitor the pressure before the GPF catalytic converter. The sensor is a semiconductor type that is not affected by the exhaust gas. The differential pressure sensor outputs the difference between the atmospheric pressure and the pressure before the GPF catalyst.

MONITOR DESCRIPTION
When particulate matter and ash accumulate in the GPF, it becomes difficult for the exhaust gas to flow and the GPF differential pressure increases, so the ECM limits the intake air flow to protect parts.
After the limit value of the intake air flow drops below the threshold, if a driving operation equal to or higher than the current load is performed and it is estimated that the GPF differential pressure will increase to the limit value or more, when the intake air flow reaches the limit value, excessive accumulation is detected in the GPF, a DTC is output and the MIL illuminates.
CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN
- HINT:
- ·
After repair has been completed, clear the DTC and then check that the vehicle has returned to normal by performing the following All Readiness check procedure.
·When clearing the permanent DTCs, refer to the "CLEAR PERMANENT DTC" procedure.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the GTS on.
Clear the DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC procedure).
Idle the engine for 5 minutes or more [A].
Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Start the engine.
Repeat the pattern of accelerating the vehicle from rest to approximately 60 km/h (37 mph) [depress the accelerator pedal by a large amount at M or 2nd gear and then decelerating the vehicle 5 times [B].
- CAUTION:
-
When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.
Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Trouble Codes [C].
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.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Utility / All Readiness.
Input the DTC: P244B00.
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 has a malfunction.
·If the judgment result is INCOMPLETE, perform steps [A] through [C] again.
·[A] to [C]: 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 battery terminal or attempt to clear the DTCs during this procedure, as doing so will clear the universal trip and normal judgment histories.
WIRING DIAGRAM
Refer to DTC P010012 for the mass air flow meter circuit.
Refer to DTC U060187 for the differential pressure sensor circuit.
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
- HINT:
- ·
Clear the Vehicle Control History after completing repairs.
·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.
