Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather tools and parts required for the repair.
• Disconnect the battery to ensure safety during repairs.

2. Addressing Error Codes

• Based on the OBD-II scanner results, identify the specific issue (e.g., P0420 for catalytic converter efficiency).
• Research the necessary repair procedures for the identified error code.

3. Repair or Replace Faulty Components

• For Spark Plugs and Ignition Coils:

  • Remove engine cover if necessary.
  • Disconnect the ignition coil connector.
  • Remove the ignition coil using a socket set.
  • Replace faulty spark plugs and ignition coils with new ones.
  • Reinstall ignition coils and connectors, ensuring secure fitment.

• For Fuel System Issues:

  • Locate the fuel pressure test port.
  • Attach the fuel pressure gauge and check for proper pressure as per manufacturer specifications.
  • If pressure is low, inspect the fuel pump and fuel filter for any blockage or failure, replacing if necessary.

• For Exhaust System Issues:

  • Inspect the catalytic converter and exhaust pipes for damage or blockages.
  • Replace damaged components with OEM parts.

4. Reassemble and Reconnect

• Reconnect the battery.
• Ensure all components are properly secured and reassemble any removed engine covers or components.
