Basic Inspection Procedure

Measuring Condition of Electronic Parts' Resistance
The measured resistance at high temperature after vehicle running may be high or low. So all resistance must be measured
at ambient temperature (20°C, 68°F), unless stated otherwise.

The measured resistance in except for ambient temperature (20°C, 68°F) is reference value.
Intermittent Problem Inspection Procedure
C:\Users\ej20\Desktop\KI 15\Sorento 2015\Engine Control - Fuel System 2.4L.mht 2014-06-10
Sometimes the most difficult case in troubleshooting is when a problem symptom occurs but does not occur again during
testing. An example would be if a problem appears only when the vehicle is cold but has not appeared when warm. In
this case, the technician should thoroughly make out a "Customer Problem Analysis Sheet" and recreate (simulate) the
environment and condition which occurred when the vehicle was having the issue.
1. Clear Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).
2. Inspect connector connection, and check terminal for poor connections, loose wires, bent, broken or corroded pins,
and then verify that the connectors are always securely fastened.

cardiagn.com
3. Slightly shake the connector and wiring harness vertically and horizontally.
4. Repair or replace the component that has a problem.
5. Verify that the problem has disappeared with the road test.
● Simulating Vibration
1) Sensors and Actuators
: Slightly vibrate sensors, actuators or relays with finger.

Strong vibration may break sensors, actuators or

relays

2) Connectors and Harness

: Lightly shake the connector and wiring harness vertically and then horizontally.
● Simulating Heat
1) Heat components suspected of causing the malfunction with a hair dryer or other heat source.

• DO NOT heat components to the point where they may be damaged.

• DO NOT heat the ECM directly.

● Simulating Water Sprinkling

C:\Users\ej20\Desktop\KI 15\Sorento 2015\Engine Control - Fuel System 2.4L.mht 2014-06-10

1) Sprinkle water onto vehicle to simulate a rainy day or a high humidity condition.

DO NOT sprinkle water directly into the engine compartment or electronic

components.

● Simulating Electrical Load

1) Turn on all electrical systems to simulate excessive electrical loads (Radios, fans, lights, rear window defogger, etc.).
Connector Inspection Procedure
1. Handling of Connector
A. Never pull on the wiring harness when disconnecting connectors.

cardiagn.com
B. When removing the connector with a lock, press or pull locking lever.

C. Listen for a click when locking connectors. This sound indicates that they are securely locked.

C:\Users\ej20\Desktop\KI 15\Sorento 2015\Engine Control - Fuel System 2.4L.mht 2014-06-10

 D. When a tester is used to check for continuity, or to measure voltage, always insert tester probe from wire harness
side.

E. Check waterproof connector terminals from the connector side. Waterproof connectors cannot be accessed from
harness side.

cardiagn.com
• Use a fine wire to prevent damage to the terminal.
• Do not damage the terminal when inserting the tester lead.

2. Checking Point for Connector

A. While the connector is connected:
Hold the connector, check connecting condition and locking efficiency.
B. When the connector is disconnected:
Check missed terminal, crimped terminal or broken core wire by slightly pulling the wire harness.
Visually check for rust, contamination, deformation and bend.
C. Check terminal tightening condition:
Insert a spare male terminal into a female terminal, and then check terminal tightening conditions.
D. Pull lightly on individual wires to ensure that each wire is secured in the terminal.

C:\Users\ej20\Desktop\KI 15\Sorento 2015\Engine Control - Fuel System 2.4L.mht 2014-06-10

3. Repair Method of Connector Terminal
A. Clean the contact points using air gun and/or shop rag.

Never use sand paper when polishing the contact points, otherwise the contact point may be
damaged.

B. In case of abnormal contact pressure, replace the female terminal.

Wire Harness Inspection Procedure
1. Before removing the wire harness, check the wire harness position and crimping in order to restore it correctly.
2. Check whether the wire harness is twisted, pulled or loosened.
3. Check whether the temperature of the wire harness is abnormally high.
4. Check whether the wire harness is rotating, moving or vibrating against the sharp edge of a part.
5. Check the connection between the wire harness and any installed part.
6. If the covering of wire harness is damaged; secure, repair or replace the harness.
Electrical Circuit Inspection Procedure
● Check Open Circuit

cardiagn.com
1. Procedures for Open Circuit
A. Continuity Check
B. Voltage Check
If an open circuit occurs (as seen in [FIG. 1]), it can be found by performing Step 2 (Continuity Check Method) or
Step 3 (Voltage Check Method) as shown below.

C:\Users\ej20\Desktop\KI 15\Sorento 2015\Engine Control - Fuel System 2.4L.mht 2014-06-10

2. Continuity Check Method

When measuring for resistance, lightly shake the wire harness above and below or from side to side.

Specification (Resistance)
1Ω or less → Normal Circuit
1MΩ or Higher → Open Circuit

A. Disconnect connectors (A), (C) and measure resistance between connector (A) and (C) as shown in [FIG. 2].
In [FIG.2.] the measured resistance of line 1 and 2 is higher than 1MΩ and below 1 Ω respectively. Specifically
the open circuit is line 1 (Line 2 is normal). To find exact break point, check sub line of line 1 as described in next
step.

cardiagn.com
B. Disconnect connector (B), and measure for resistance between connector (C) and (B1) and between (B2) and
(A) as shown in [FIG. 3].
In this case the measured resistance between connector (C) and (B1) is higher than 1MΩ and the open circuit is
between terminal 1 of connector (C) and terminal 1 of connector (B1).

C:\Users\ej20\Desktop\KI 15\Sorento 2015\Engine Control - Fuel System 2.4L.mht 2014-06-10

3. Voltage Check Method
A. With each connector still connected, measure the voltage between the chassis ground and terminal 1 of each
connectors (A), (B) and (C) as shown in [FIG. 4].
The measured voltage of each connector is 5V, 5V and 0V respectively. So the open circuit is between
connector (C) and (B).

● Check Short Circuit

1. Test Method for Short to Ground Circuit
A. Continuity Check with Chassis Ground

cardiagn.com
If short to ground circuit occurs as shown in [FIG. 5], the broken point can be found by performing Step 2
(Continuity Check Method with Chassis Ground) as shown below.

2. Continuity Check Method (with Chassis Ground)

Lightly shake the wire harness above and below, or from side to side when measuring the resistance.

Specification (Resistance)
1Ω or less → Short to Ground Circuit
1MΩ or Higher → Normal Circuit

C:\Users\ej20\Desktop\KI 15\Sorento 2015\Engine Control - Fuel System 2.4L.mht 2014-06-10

 A. Disconnect connectors (A), (C) and measure for resistance between connector (A) and Chassis Ground as
shown in [FIG. 6].
The measured resistance of line 1 and 2 in this example is below 1 Ω and higher than 1MΩ respectively.
Specifically the short to ground circuit is line 1 (Line 2 is normal). To find exact broken point, check the sub line
of line 1 as described in the following step.

B. Disconnect connector (B), and measure the resistance between connector (A) and chassis ground, and between
(B1) and chassis ground as shown in [FIG. 7].
The measured resistance between connector (B1) and chassis ground is 1Ω or less. The short to ground circuit is
between terminal 1 of connector (C) and terminal 1 of connector (B1).

cardiagn.com
● Testing For Voltage Drop
This test checks for voltage drop along a wire, or through a connection orswitch.
1) Connect the positive lead of a voltmeter to the end of the wire (or to the side of the connector or switch) closest to
the battery.
2) Connect the negative lead to the other end of the wire. (or the other side of the connector or switch)
3) Operate the circuit.
4) The voltmeter will show the difference in voltage between the two points. A difference, or drop of more than 0.1
volts (50mV in 5V circuits), may indicate a problem. Check the circuit for loose or dirty connections.

Engine Control / Fuel System

OBD-II review
1. Overview
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) began regulation of On Board Diagnostics (OBD) for vehicles sold in
California beginning with the 1988 model year. The first phase, OBD-I, required monitoring of the fuel metering system,
Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system and additional emission related components. The Malfunction Indicator Lamp
(MIL) was required to light and alert the driver of the fault and the need for repair of the emission control system.
Associated with the MIL was a fault code or Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) idenfying the specific area of the fault.
The OBD system was proposed by CARB to improve air quality by identifying vehicle exceeding emission standards.
Passage of the Federal Clean Air Act Amendments in 1990 has also prompted the Environmental Protection Agency

cardiagn.com
(EPA) to develop On Board Diagnostic requirements. CARB OBD-II regulations were followed until 1999 when the
federal regulations were used.
The OBD-II system meets government regulations by monitoring the emission control system. When a system or
component exceeds emission threshold or a component operates outside tolerance, a DTC will be stored and the MIL
illuminated.
The diagnostic executive is a computer program in the Engine Control Module (ECM) or PowertrainControl Module
(PCM) that coordinates the OBD-II self-monitoring system. This program controls all the monitors and interactions, DTC
and MIL operation, freeze frame data and scan tool interface.
Freeze frame data describes stored engine conditions, such as state of the engine, state of fuel control, spark, RPM, load
and warm status at the point the first fault is detected. Previously stored conditions will be replaced only if a fuel or misfire
fault is detected. This data is accessible with the scan tool to assist in repairing the vehicle.
The center of the OBD-II system is a microprocessor called the Engine Control Module (ECM) or Powertrain Control
Module(PCM).
The ECM or PCM receives input from sensors and other electronic components (switches, relays, and others) based on
information received and programmed into its memory (keep alive random access memory, and others), the ECM or
PCM generates output signals to control various relays, solenoids and actuators.
2. Configuration of hardware and related terms
1) GST (Generic scan tool)

C:\Users\ej20\Desktop\KI 15\Sorento 2015\Engine Control - Fuel System 2.4L.mht 2014-06-10

 cardiagn.com
2) MIL (Malfunction indication lamp) - MIL activity by transistor

The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) is connected between ECM or PCM-terminal Malfunction Indicator Lamp and
battery supply (open collector amplifier).
In most cars, the MIL will be installed in the instrument panel. The lamp amplifier can not be damaged by a short circuit.
Lamps with a power dissipation much greater than total dissipation of the MIL and lamp in the tester may cause a fault
indication.
At ignition ON and engine revolution (RPM)< MIN. RPM, the MIL is switched ON for an optical check by the
driver.
3) MIL illumination
When the ECM or PCM detects a malfunction related emission during the first driving cycle, the DTC and engine data
are stored in the freeze frame memory. The MIL is illuminated only when the ECM or PCM detects the same malfunction
related to the DTC in two consecutive driving cycles.

• Misfire and Fuel System Malfunctions:
For misfire or fuel system malfunctions, the MIL may be eliminated if the same fault does not reoccur during
monitoring in three subsequent sequential driving cycles in which conditions are similar to those under which the
malfunction was first detected.
• All Other Malfunctions:
For all other faults, the MIL may be extinguished after three subsequent sequential driving cycles during which the
monitoring system responsible for illuminating the MIL functions without detecting the malfunction and if no other
malfunction has been identified that would independently illuminate the MIL according to the requirements outlined
above.
5) Erasing a fault code
The diagnostic system may erase a fault code if the same fault is not re-registered in at least 40 engine warm-up cycles,
and the MIL is not illuminated for that fault code.
6) Communication Line (CAN)
• Bus Topology : Line (bus) structure
• Wiring : Twisted pair wire
• Off Board DLC Cable Length : Max. 5m
• Data Transfer Rate

cardiagn.com
- Diagnostic : 500 kbps
- Service Mode (Upgrade, Writing VIN) : 500 or 1Mbps)
7) Driving cycle
A driving cycle consists of engine start up, and engine shut off.
8) Warm-up cycle
A warm-up cycle means sufficient vehicle operation such that the engine coolant temperature has risen by at least 40
degrees Fahrenheit from engine starting and reaches a minimum temperature of at least 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
9) DTC format
• Diagnostic Trouble Code (SAE J2012)
• DTCs used in OBD-II vehicles will begin with a letter and are followed by four numbers.
The letter of the beginning of the DTC identifies the function of the monitored device that has failed. A "P" indicates a
powertrain device, "C" indicates a chassis device. "B" is for body device and "U" indicates a network or data link code.
The first number indicates if the code is generic (common to all manufacturers) or if it is manufacturer specific. A "0" &
"2" indicates generic, "1" indicates manufacturer-specific. The second number indicates the system that is affected with a
number between 1 and 7.
The following is a list showing what numbers are assigned to each system.
• 1 : Fuel and air metering
• 2 : Fuel and air metering(injector circuit malfunction only)
• 3 : Ignition system or misfire
• 4 : Auxiliary emission controls
• 5 : Vehicle speed controls and idle control system
• 6 : Computer output circuits
• 7 : Transmission
The last two numbers of the DTC indicates the component or section of the system where the fault is located.
10) Freeze frame data
When a freeze frame event is triggered by an emission related DTC, the ECM or PCM stores various vehicle information
as it existed the moment the fault ocurred. The DTC number along with the engine data can be useful in aiding a technician
in locating the cause of the fault. Once the data from the 1st driving cycle DTC ocurrence is stored in the freeze frame
C:\Users\ej20\Desktop\KI 15\Sorento 2015\Engine Control - Fuel System 2.4L.mht 2014-06-10
memory, it will remain there even when the fault ocurrs again (2nd driving cycle) and the MIL is illuminated.
• Freeze Frame List
1) Calculated Load Value
2) Engine RPM
3) Fuel Trim
4) Fuel Pressure (if available)
5) Vehicle Speed (if available)
6) Coolant Temperature
7) Intake Manifold Pressure (if available)
8) Closed-or Open-loop operation
9) Fault code

1) Catalyst monitoring
The catalyst efficiency monitor is a self-test strategy within the ECM or PCM that uses the downstream Heated Oxygen
Sensor (HO2S) to determine when a catalyst has fallen below the minimum level of effectiveness in its ability to control
exhaust emission.
2) Misfire monitoring
Misfire is defined as the lack of proper combustion in the cylinder due to the absence of spark, poor fuel metering, or
poor compression. Any combustion that does not occur within the cylinder at the proper time is also a misfire. The misfire
detection monitor detects fuel, ignition or mechanically induced misfires. The intent is to protect the catalyst from
permanent damage and to alert the customer of an emission failure or an inspection maintenance failure by illuminating the
MIL . When a misfire is detected, special software called freeze frame data is enabled. The freeze frame data captures
the operational state of the vehicle when a fault is detected from misfire detection monitor strategy.
3) Fuel system monitoring
The fuel system monitor is a self-test strategy within the ECM or PCM that monitors the adaptive fuel table The fuel
control system uses the adaptive fuel table to compensate for normal variability of the fuel system components caused by
wear or aging. During normal vehicle operation, if the fuel system appears biased lean or rich, the adaptive value table will
shift the fuel delivery calculations to remove bias.
4) Engine cooling system monitoring
The cooling system monitoring is a self-test strategy within the ECM or PCM that monitors ECTS (Engine Coolant
Temperature Sensor) and thermostat about circuit continuity, output range, rationality faults.

cardiagn.com
5) O2 sensor monitoring
OBD-II regulations require monitoring of the upstream Heated O2 Sensor (H2OS) to detect if the deterioration of the
sensor has exceeded thresholds. An additional HO2S is located downstream of the Warm-Up Three Way Catalytic
Converter (WU-TWC) to determine the efficiency of the catalyst.
Although the downstream H2OS is similar to the type used for fuel control, it functions differently. The downstream
HO2S is monitored to determine if a voltage is generated. That voltage is compared to a calibrated acceptable range.
6) Evaporative emission system monitoring
The EVAP. monitoring is a self-test strategy within the ECM or PCM that tests the integrity of the EVAP. system. The
complete evaporative system detects a leak or leaks that cumulatively are greater than or equal to a leak caused by a
0.040 inch and 0.020 inch diameter orifice.
7) Air conditioning system monitoring
The A/C system monitoring is a self-test strategy within the ECM or PCM that monitors malfunction of all A/C system
components at A/C ON.
8) Comprehensive components monitoring
The comprehensive components monitoring is a self-test strategy within the ECM or PCM that detects fault of any
electronic powertrain components or system that provides input to the ECM or PCM and is not exclusively an input to
any other OBD-II monitor.
9) A/C system component monitoring
Requirement:
If a vehicle incorporates an engine control strategy that alters off idle fuel and/or spark control when the A/C system is on,
the OBD II system shall monitor all electronic air conditioning system components for malfunctions that cause the system
to fail to invoke the alternate control while the A/C system is on or cause the system to invoke the alternate control while
the A/C system is off.
Additionally, the OBD II system shall monitor for malfunction all electronic air conditioning system components that are
used as part of the diagnostic strategy for any other monitored system or component.
Implementation plan:
No engine control strategy incorporated that alters offidle fuel and/or spark control when A/C system is on. Malfuction of
A/C system components is not used as a part of the diagnostic strategy for other monitored system or component.

ECM Problem Inspection Procedure

1. TEST ECM GROUND CIRCUIT: Measure resistance between ECM and chassis ground using the backside of
ECM harness connector as ECM side check point. If the problem is found, repair it.

Specification: Below 1Ω

cardiagn.com
2. TEST ECM CONNECTOR: Disconnect the ECM connector and visually check the ground terminals on ECM side
and harness side for bent pins or poor contact pressure. If the problem is found, repair it.
3. If problem is not found in Step 1 and 2, the ECM could be faulty. If so, make sure there were no DTC's before
swapping the ECM with a new one, and then check the vehicle again. If DTC's were found, examine this first before
swapping ECM.
4. RE-TEST THE ORIGINAL ECM: Install the original ECM (may be broken) into a known-good vehicle and check
the vehicle. If the problem occurs again, replace the original ECM with a new one. If problem does not occur, this is
intermittent problem (Refer to “Intermittent Problem Inspection Procedure” in Basic Inspection Procedure).
VIN Programming Procedure
VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) is a number that has the vehicle's information (Maker, Vehicle Type, Vehicle
Line/Series, Body Type, Engine Type, Transmission Type, Model Year, Plant Location and so forth. For more
information, please refer to the group "GI" in this SERVICE MANUAL). When replacing an ECM, the VIN must be
programmed in the ECM. If there is no VIN in ECM memory, the fault code (DTC P0630) is set.

The programmed VIN cannot be changed. When writing the VIN, confirm the VIN carefully
1. Select "VIN Writing" function in "Vehicle S/W Management".

C:\Users\ej20\Desktop\KI 15\Sorento 2015\Engine Control - Fuel System 2.4L.mht 2014-06-10

Engine Control / Fuel System

Description
The Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) System consists of a throttle body with an integrated control motor and throttle
position sensor (TPS). Instead of the traditional throttle cable, an Accelerator Position Sensor (APS) is used to receive
driver input. The ECM uses the APS signal to calculate the target throttle angle; the position of the throttle is then
adjusted via ECM control of the ETC motor. The TPS signal is used to provide feedback regarding throttle position to
the ECM. Using ETC, precise control over throttle position is possible; the need for external cruise control
modules/cables is eliminated.

Engine Control / Fuel System

Description
Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor (MAPS) is a speed-density type sensor and is installed on the surge tank. It senses
absolute pressure of the surge tank and transfers the analog signal proportional to the pressure to the ECM. By using this
signal, the ECM calculates the intake air quantity and engine speed.
The MAPS consists of a piezo-electric element and a hybrid IC amplifying the element output signal. The element is
silicon diaphragm type and adapts pressure sensitive variable resistor effect of semi-conductor. Because 100% vacuum
and the manifold pressure apply to both sides of the sensor respectively, this sensor can output analog signal by using the
silicon variation proportional to pressure change.

Engine Control / Fuel System

Description
Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor (ECTS) is located in the engine coolant passage of the cylinder head for detecting
the engine coolant temperature. The ECTS uses a thermistor that changes resistance with the temperature.
The electrical resistance of the ECTS decreases as the temperature increases, and increases as the temperature
decreases. The reference +5V is supplied to the ECTS via a resistor in the ECM. That is, the resistor in the ECM and the
thermistor in the ECTS are connected in series. When the resistance value of the thermistor in the ECTS changes
according to the engine coolant temperature, the output voltage also changes.

Description
Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKPS) detects the crankshaft position and is one of the most important sensors of the
engine control system. If there is no CKPS signal input, the engine may stop because of CKPS signal missing. This sensor
is installed on the cylinder block or the transaxle housing and generates alternating current by magnetic flux field which is
made by the sensor and the target wheel when engine runs.
The target wheel consists of 58 slots and 2 missing slots on 360 degrees CA (Crank Angle).

Description
Knocking is a phenomenon characterized by undesirable vibration and noise and can cause engine damage. Knock
Sensor (KS) is installed on the cylinder block and senses engine knocking.
When knocking occurs, the vibration from the cylinder block is applied as pressure to the piezoelectric element. When a
knock occurs, the sensor produces voltage signal. The ECM retards the ignition timing when knocking occurs. If the
knocking disappears after retarding the ignition timing, the ECM will advance the ignition timing. This sequential control
can improve engine power, torque and fuel economy.

Description
Continuous Variable Valve Timing (CVVT) system advances or retards the valve timing of the intake and exhaust valve in
accordance with the ECM control signal which is calculated by the engine speed and load.
By controlling CVVT, the valve over-lap or under-lap occurs, which makes better fuel economy and reduces exhaust
gases (NOx, HC) and improves engine performance through reduction of pumping loss, internal EGR effect,
improvement of combustion stability, improvement of volumetric efficiency, and increase of expansion work.
This system consist of
-the CVVT Oil Control Valve (OCV) which supplies the engine oil to the cam phaser or cuts the engine oil from the cam
phaser in accordance with the ECM PWM (Pulse With Modulation) control signal,
- the CVVT Oil Temperature Sensor (OTS) which measures the engine oil temperature,
-and the Cam Phaser which varies the cam phase by using the hydraulic force of the engine oil.
The engine oil getting out of the CVVT oil control valve varies the cam phase in the direction (Intake Advance/Exhaust
Retard) or opposite direction (Intake Retard/Exhaust Advance) of the engine rotation by rotating the rotor connected
