3UR-FE (ENGINE CONTROL): SFI SYSTEM: P0300-P0308; Random / Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected; 2016 MY
Tundra [08/2015 - 08/2016]
DTC P0300 Random / Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected
DESCRIPTION
When the engine misfires, high concentrations of hydrocarbons (HC) enter the exhaust gas. Extremely high HC concentration levels can cause increases in exhaust
emission levels. High concentrations of HC can also cause increases in the Three-Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) temperature, which may cause damage to the
TWC. To prevent these increases in emissions and to limit the possibility of thermal damage, the ECM monitors the misfire rate. When the temperature of the TWC
reaches the point of thermal degradation, the MIL blinks. To monitor misfires, the ECM uses both the Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor and the Crankshaft Position
(CKP) sensor. The CMP sensor is used to identify any misfiring cylinders and the CKP sensor is used to measure variations in the crankshaft rotation speed.
Misfires are counted as when the crankshaft rotation speed variations exceed predetermined thresholds.
If the misfire rate exceeds the threshold level, the ECM illuminates the MIL and sets a DTC.

When multiple DTCs for misfiring cylinders are set, but DTC P0300 is not set, it indicates that misfires have been detected in different cylinders at different times.
DTC P0300 is only set when several misfiring cylinders are detected at the same time.
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
The ECM illuminates the MIL and sets a DTC when either one of the following conditions, which could cause emission deterioration, is detected (2 trip detection
logic).
Within the first 1000 crankshaft revolutions of the engine starting, an excessive misfiring rate (approximately 10 to 50 misfires per 1000 crankshaft
revolutions) occurs once.
An excessive misfiring rate (approximately 10 to 50 misfires per 1000 crankshaft revolutions) occurs a total of 4 times.
The ECM flashes the MIL (immediate detection logic) and sets a DTC (2 trip detection logic) when either one of the following conditions, which could cause the
Three-Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) damage, is detected:
At a high engine rpm, a catalyst damage misfire, which monitored every 200 crankshaft revolutions, occurs once.
At a normal engine rpm, a catalyst damage misfire, which monitored every 200 crankshaft revolutions, occurs 3 times.
HINT:
If a catalyst damage misfire occurs, the ECM informs the driver by flashing the MIL.
Within the first 1000 crankshaft revolutions of the engine starting, an excessive misfiring rate (approximately 1000 misfires per 1000 crankshaft revolutions)
occurs once.
An excessive misfiring rate (approximately 500 misfires per 1000 crankshaft revolutions) occurs a total of 4 times.
The ECM flashes the MIL and sets a DTC when the following condition, which could cause the Three-Way Catalytic Converter (TWC) damage, is detected (2 trip
detection logic).
A catalyst damage misfire, which monitored every 200 crankshaft revolutions, occurs 3 times.

In order to store misfire DTCs, it is necessary to operate the vehicle for the period of time shown in the table below with the engine speed and engine load the
same as Misfire RPM and Misfire Load in the freeze frame data.

9. Check whether misfires have occurred by checking DTCs and freeze frame data.
HINT:
Do not turn the ignition switch off until the stored DTCs and freeze frame data have been recorded. When the ECM returns to normal mode (default), the
stored DTCs, freeze frame data and other data will be cleared.
10. Record the DTC(s), freeze frame data and misfire counts.
11. Turn the ignition switch off and wait for at least 15 seconds.
12. Clear DTCs (even if no DTCs are stored, perform the clear DTC operation).

Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.
HINT:
If any DTCs other than misfire DTCs are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.
Read freeze frame data using the Techstream. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. 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.
If the misfire does not recur when the vehicle is brought to the workshop, reproduce the conditions stored in the freeze frame data.
If the misfire still cannot be reproduced even though the conditions stored in the freeze frame data have been duplicated, one of the following factors is
considered to be a possible cause of the problem:
1. The fuel level is low.
2. Improper fuel is used.
3. The spark plugs are dirty.
After finishing repairs, check that no misfires occur in each cylinder (cylinder No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, No. 4, No. 5, No. 6, No. 7 and No. 8).
Be sure to confirm that no misfiring cylinder DTCs are set again by conducting the confirmation driving pattern, after the repairs.
For 6 and 8 cylinder engines, the ECM intentionally does not set the specific misfiring cylinder DTCs at high engine RPM. If misfires only occur during high
engine RPM driving, only DTC P0300 is set.
In the event of DTC P0300 being present, perform the following operations:
1. Clear the DTC (See page ). [ 3UR-FE (ENGINE CONTROL): SFI SYSTEM: DTC CHECK / CLEAR ]
2. Start the engine and conduct the confirmation driving pattern.
3. Read the misfiring rates of each cylinder or DTC(s) using the Techstream.
4. Repair the cylinder(s) that has a high misfiring rate or is indicated by the DTC.

5. After finishing repairs, conduct the confirmation driving pattern again, in order to verify that DTC P0300 is not set.
When either Short FT #1, Long FT #1, Short FT #2 or Long FT #2 in the freeze frame data is outside the range of +/-20%, the air-fuel ratio may be rich (-20%
or less) or lean (+20% or more).
When the Coolant Temp in the freeze frame data is less than 75°C (167°F), the misfires occurred only while warming up the engine.
An extremely imbalanced drive wheel can cause body vibration, which may cause misfire DTC(s) to be stored.

d. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Active Test / Prohibit the Catalyst OT Misfire prevent F/C.
When performing the Active Test, make sure the vehicle is stopped and either idling or being revved within 3000 rpm.
c. Read each value for Cylinder #1 Misfire Rate to #8 displayed on the Techstream. If no misfire counts occur in any cylinders, perform the following
procedures:
1. Move the shift lever to the D position.
2. Check the Cylinder #1 Misfire Rate to #8.
3. If misfire counts are still not displayed, perform procedure "A" and "B" and then check the misfire counts again.
d. Drive the vehicle with the Misfire RPM and Misfire Load noted in the "READ VALUE USING Techstream Misfire RPM and Misfire Load" procedures above.
(Procedure "A")
e. Read the Cylinder #1 Misfire Rate to #8 or DTCs displayed on the Techstream. (Procedure "B")
Result
HINT:
If it is difficult to reproduce misfires for each cylinder, check the Data List item called Misfire Margin. Try to find vehicle driving conditions that lower
the Misfire Margin value. Values above 30% are considered normal.
If the freeze frame data's record of the ECT is below 75°C (167°F), the misfire may be detected only when the engine is cold.
If the freeze frame data's record of the Engine Run Time is below 120 seconds, the misfire may be detected immediately after the engine is started.
