Hello,

Direct Trouble Code (DTC) P0301 is a code for a misfire in cylinder number one. Check the ignition system first for this DTC. In the diagrams down below I have included information on how to test your vehicles ignition coil and spark plugs. I have also included a few links below for you to go to.
