INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
- If DTCs P1430, P1431, P0110, P0115, P0116, P0120, P0121 are output simultaneously, E2 (sensor ground) may be open.
- Read freeze frame data using hand-held tester. Because freeze frame records the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected.

- When a bypass valve has a trouble, it is possible that DTC P1341 will be detected ahead of DTC P1436, and P1437, 50 in case that P1431 even if they are not memorized.
