Mazda Factory OBD-II DTC P1201 Code Diagnostic Procedure

Mazda P1201 Fuel injector No.1 circuit malfunction
DETECTION CONDITION
•  The PCM monitors the fuel injector No.1. If the voltage at PCM terminals 118 and 101 remains high, the PCM determines that there is a fuel injector No.1 circuit problem.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  Fuel injector No.1 malfunction
•  Connector or terminal malfunction
•  Short to power supply in the wiring harness between fuel injector No.1 terminal A and PCM terminal 118
•  Short to power supply in the wiring harness between fuel injector No.1 terminal B and PCM terminal 101
•  PCM malfunction

Diagnostic procedure

STEP INSPECTION ACTION
1
VERIFY FREEZE FRAME DATA HAS BEEN RECORDED
•  Has the FREEZE FRAME DATA been recorded?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Record the FREEZE FRAME DATA on the repair order, then go to the next step.
2
VERIFY RELATED REPAIR INFORMATION AVAILABILITY
•  Verify related service repair information availability.
•  Is any related repair information available?
Yes
Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available repair information.

•  Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS.
•  Run the vehicle under the FREEZE FRAME DATA stored condition.
•  Is the same DTC present?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Intermittent concern exists.
Perform the “INTERMITTENT CONCERNS TROUBLESHOOTING”.
4
INSPECT FUEL INJECTOR NO.1 CONNECTOR FOR POOR CONNECTION
•  Turn the engine switch off.
•  Disconnect the fuel injector No.1 connector.
•  Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion).
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair or replace the terminal, then go to Step 8.
No
Go to the next step.
5
INSPECT FUEL INJECTOR NO.1 CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY
•  Turn the engine switch to the ON position (Engine off).
•  Measure the voltage between the following terminals:
―  Fuel injector No.1 terminal A (wiring harness-side) and body ground.
―  Fuel injector No.1 terminal B (wiring harness-side) and body ground.
•  Is the voltage B+?
Yes
Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible open circuit or short to ground, then go to Step 8.
No
Go to the next step.
6
INSPECT FUEL INJECTOR NO.1
•  Inspect the fuel injector No.1
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Replace the fuel injector No.1, then go to Step 8.
No
Go to the next step.
7
INSPECT PCM CONNECTOR FOR POOR CONNECTION
•  Turn the engine switch off.
•  Disconnect the PCM connector.
•  Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion).
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair or replace the terminal, then go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
8
VERIFY THAT DTC P1201 TROUBLESHOOTING IS COMPLETED
•  Make sure to reconnect all disconnected connectors.
•  Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS.
•  Run the vehicle under the FREEZE FRAME DATA stored condition.
•  Is the same DTC present?
Yes
Replace the PCM, then go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
9
VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE
