The entire bulletin has been updated. Any previous printed versions of this bulletin should be discarded. Some 2018 model year Camry and 2019 model year Avalon vehicles equipped with 2GR-FKS (V6) engines may exhibit a MIL ON condition with one or more of the following Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). ? P030000 (Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected) ? P030027 (Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected [Emission] Signal Rate of Change Above Threshold) ? P030085 (Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected [Over Temperature] Signal Above Allowable Range) ? P030500 (Cylinder 5 Misfire Detected) ? P030600 (Cylinder 6 Misfire Detected) ? P160500 (Rough Idling) Common characteristics when the misfire occurs are: ? High engine speed (5000 ? 6500 rpm) ? High engine load (100%+) ? Accelerator pedal position at 100% The Engine Control Module (ECM) (SAE term: Powertrain Control Module [PCM]) logic has been modified to reduce the possibility of this condition.

T-TT-0521-192019-02-19. Service bulletin. ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING. TT: The current engine active test ?Control the Injection Mode? is not operating as desired when controlling the direct injectors manually on 2GR-FKS engines. When direct injection is started and then stopped using the active test, current ECU logic does not turn off the direct injectors and can cause DTCs P017200, P017500 and P0160300. To avoid this condition, technicians should raise engine RPM when changing back and forth between the Direct Injection and Port Injection active tests. Use the recommended procedure below to avoid this concern while testing injection mode of FKS equipped vehicles. NOTE: If the active test is used multiple times without using this procedure to raise engine RPM, it may be necessary to reset learning values for fuel trim and Air to Fuel ratio before returning vehicle to customer.
