C0301 Hyundai I30 Diagnostic Trouble Code
C0301 Hyundai I30 code definition:
C0301 is a kind of OBD-II Diagnostic C-Chassis Diagnostic Trouble Code for Hyundai I30.
C0301 Hyundai I30 shows up when there's an electrical problem that causes the fuel volume regulator to malfunction and open. It's quite an unusual problem and likely intermittent. The PCM then uses this data to provide the right strategies for the fuel delivery and ignition timing of the engine.
Symptoms
Symptoms of a C0301 Hyundai I30 diagnostic trouble code may include:
- The light may stay on or light intermittently as the DPF regenerates. The engine will be sluggish on acceleration.
- Faulty PCM
- If the DPF is not cleared the ECU will revert to the "Limp Home Mode" until the situation is corrected
- The engine oil will exhibit dilution from the ECUs attempts to increase engine temperature. Some vehicles advance the fuel injection timing slightly after top center to afterburn a small amount of fuel to increase exhaust temperatures. Some of this fuel enters the crankcase. When the ECU determines the necessity to regenerate the DPF, the service life of the oil be shortened significantly
|
Possible Causes :
- Defective ECU strategies or components will prevent proper regeneration
- The Mass Airflow sensor is a hot wire that senses the volume of air entering the intake manifold. The computer uses this information to control fuel mixture.
- An air leak forward of the DPF will change the sensor readings resulting in the code

Common Misdiagnoses
- Vehicle Speed Output Circuit Problem
- Cruise Control Servo Indicates Low Problem
- A/C System High Pressure High Temperature Problem
- PCM Stack Overrun Problem
- Transmission Control Module Reprogrammable Memory Problem
Repair Processes :
With the valve disconnected, the red voltmeter lead should be attached to the IMRC valve power wire and the black voltmeter lead connected to ground.
Pack the connector cavity with dielectric silicone compound (same stuff they use for light bulb sockets and spark plug wires) and reassemble.
Oxygen sensors signal the engine management computer the amount of oxygen present in the exhaust, which is used in determining and controlling the fuel ratio.
Process Tips
Diagnostic trouble code C0301 Hyundai I30 is not difficult to diagnose and repair. Thus, it always pays to have a qualified technician to look after your vehicle should this error code arise.
Diagnosing this code requires the engine to be in good running shape, without unmetered air entering the engine. If other codes that relates to misfiring condition, lean running or air entering the engine is present, then you must first fix those error codes before C0301 Hyundai I30.
Fortunately, C0301 Hyundai I30 is a fairly common OBD code, meaning that it applies to all makes and models of vehicles made after 1996.
