DTC P0352 IGNITION COIL "B" PRIMARY/SECONDARY CIRCUIT

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION

DTC Detecting Condition:

HINT:
- These DTCs indicate a malfunction related to primary circuit.
- If DTC P0351 is displayed, check No.1 ignition coil with igniter circuit.
- If DTC P0352 is displayed, check No.2 ignition coil with igniter circuit.
- If DTC P0353 is displayed, check No.3 ignition coil with igniter circuit.
- If DTC P0354 is displayed, check No.4 ignition coil with igniter circuit.

A Direct Ignition System (DIS) has been adopted. The DIS improves the ignition timing accuracy, reduces the high-voltage loss, and enhances overall reliability of the ignition system by eliminating the distributor. The DIS is a 1-cylinder ignition system which ignites one cylinder with one ignition coil. In the 1-cylinder ignition system, the spark plug is connected to the end of the secondary winding. High voltage generated in the secondary winding is applied directly to the spark plug. The spark of the spark plug passes through from the center electrode to the ground electrode.

The ECM determines ignition timing and outputs the ignition signals (IGT) of each cylinder. Based on IGT signals, the power transistors cut off the current to the primary coil in the ignition coil. At the same time, the igniter also sends an ignition confirmation signal (IGF) as a fail-safe measurement to the ECM.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT: Read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester or the OBD II scan tool, as freeze frame data records the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, it is useful for determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine was warmed up or not, the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction.
