Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) with DTC P130D – 2013-2015 Ford Escape

1.6L GTDI WITH DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) P130D – BUILT ON OR BEFORE 3/13/2015

 

FORDeBay logo:2013-2015 Escape

 

2013-2015 Escape vehicles equipped with a 1.6L Gasoline Turbocharged Direct Injected (GTDI) engine and built on or before 3/13/2015 may exhibit a Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) with an Engine Fault Service Now message in the instrument cluster and DTC P130D stored in the powertrain control module (PCM).

 

SERVICE PROCEDURE

  1. Connect the FordeBay logo Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS) service tool or equivalent Scan Tool to the data link connector (DLC). Select the following parameter identifications (PIDS) listed below to determine if a cylinder(s) is exhibiting a pre-ignition concern.
  • CYL_1_ACCL
  • CYL_2_ACCL
  • CYL_3_ACCL
  • CYL_4_ACCL
  • KNK_CNTR_CYL1
  • KNK_CNTR_CYL2
  • KNK_CNTR_CYL3
  • KNK_CNTR_CYL4
  • KNK_RATE_LRND
  • KNOCK_1
  • KNOCK_2
  • KNOCK_SPRK

Record the cylinder(s) knock counts for comparison later in the procedure and after the values are reset.

  1. Reprogram the powertrain control module (PCM) to the latest level service calibration using IDS or FordeBay logo J2534 release 94.04 or higher. Make sure you are connected to the internet when entering module programming to obtain the latest updates. Calibration files may also be obtained at www.motorcraftservice.com.
  2. Tighten the 3 generator mounting fasteners to 48 Nm (35 lb-ft).
  3. Tighten the coil to cylinder head ground G111 to 19 Nm (168 lb-in).
  4. Remove all 4 spark plugs and inspect for micro cracks and carbon trails. Replace any spark plugs where a concern is identified.
  5. Verify the engine oil level is between the A (minimum) and B (maximum) marks on the engine oil dipstick and fill or drain as necessary.
    1. If the engine oil level is over full, inspect the air intake system and charge air cooler (CAC) tubes for oil build up.
  6. Perform the following road test. Listen for audible engine knock and/or smoke from the exhaust.
    1. Road test – low RPM, high engine load:
      1. Drive the vehicle until the powertrain is at full operating temperature.
      2. From a low vehicle speed at a suitable highway or interstate entrance, lock or hold the transmission into 5th and 6th gears. While not allowing for a downshift, and starting at the lowest RPM possible, maintain maximum engine load and accelerate until highway or interstate speed limit is reached.
    2. Road test – high RPM, high engine load:
      1. Drive the vehicle until the powertrain is at full operating temperature.
      2. From a low vehicle speed at a suitable highway or interstate entrance, kick-down to wide open throttle (WOT) and accelerate through high RPM until highway or interstate speed limit is reached.

 

  1. Evaluate the road test. Compare the PID readings from Step 1 with the current PID values with the key on engine off (KOEO) after the road test. The PID values will have reset due to the reprogramming of the PCM.
    1. Did any of the following occur?
      1. Did the pre-ignition counters increase by more than 2 on any individual cylinder?
      2. Did the sum of the pre-ignition counters from all cylinders increase by more than 4?
      3. Did DTC P130D code return?
      4. Was an audible engine knock heard during the test drive?
      5. Was exhaust smoke present during the test drive?
    2. No to all questions – proceed to Step 9.
    3. Yes to one or more questions – procedure is complete. Refer to WSM, Section 303-00 for base engine diagnosis.
  2. Is the engine coolant level low enough to indicate a cooling system concern?
    1. No – repair is complete.
    2. Yes – procedure is complete. Refer to WSM, Section 303-03 for engine cooling system diagnosis.

Service Information & Reprogramming

Software necessary to program electronic modules to the latest calibration level, perform module initialization (PATS), and set Programmable Parameters on FordeBay logo, LincolneBay logo and MercuryeBay logo vehicles.

Ford Module Programming (FMP) is a software application that allows subscribers to program electronic modules on FordeBay logo, LincolneBay logo and MercuryeBay logo vehicles. It can be used for:

  • Reprogramming emission-related (OBDII) modules on some vehicles manufactured in 1995 and all vehicles manufactured from 1996 to the present
  • Reprogramming or reconfiguring non-emission-related modules on many vehicles (UBP and MS-CAN not supported)

In addition, module initialization (PATS) functions such as Keycode Erase/Reprogram and PCM Parameter Reset can be done using this application.
