  1. Record Customer Complaint Ensure all customer complaints or observations are recorded. Test drive vehicle with customer when necessary for malfunction verification.
  2. DLC3 Inspection Connect the OBD II scan tool or hand-held tester to DLC3. see scheme 1 If the display indicates a communication fault in the tool, inspect DLC3. See «DATA LINK CONNECTOR NO. 3 INSPECTION»(ref-151954-S05235473282003010900000) under SCAN TOOL PROBLEMS.
  3. Retrieve DTCs & Freeze Frame Data Using Toyota hand-held tester or scan tool, retrieve diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) from engine control module (ECM) and record any freeze frame data (if applicable). See «RETRIEVING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES»(ref-151954-S16372262862003010900000) and «FREEZE FRAME DATA»(ref-151954-S36387861832003010900000).
  4. Clear DTCs & Freeze Frame Data Using Toyota hand-held tester or scan tool, clear DTCs and freeze frame data from ECM. See «CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES»(ref-151954-S22549028572003010900000).
  5. Visual Inspection Inspect all electrical connectors and wiring for suspected circuit or component. Ensure all electrical connections are clean and tight.
  6. Check Mode Diagnosis Set the check mode diagnosis. See «TWO-TRIP DETECTION LOGIC»(ref-151954-S01870655182003010900000).
  7. Confirm Symptoms If the engine does not start, perform steps 9 and 10 first. If a malfunction occurs, go to the next step. If a malfunction does not occur, simulate symptom. Perform road test. Determine if original symptoms still exist, then go to the next step.
  8. DTC Check Check DTC. See «SYSTEM OVERVIEW»(ref-151954-S20682626362003010900000). If DTC is normal, go to the next step. If there is a malfunction code, go to step 11.
  9. Basic Inspection Perform basic inspection. See «BASIC INSPECTION»(ref-151954-S24750319032003081200000). If results are OK, go to the next step. If results are not good, inspect parts, then go to step 13.
  10. Determine Symptom If no DTCs are present and a driveability condition exists, diagnosis by symptom (i.e., ROUGH IDLE, ENGINE STALLS, etc.). See SYMPTOMS in appropriate «TROUBLE SHOOTING - NO CODES»(ref-151977) article. If circuits are OK, inspect parts and go to step 13. If circuits are not good, go to the next step.
  11. Diagnose & Repair Diagnostic Trouble Codes For DTC descriptions, see «DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DEFINITIONS»(ref-151954-S06837564092003010900000). Perform appropriate DTC test. See «DIAGNOSTIC TESTS»(ref-151954-S35851798372003010900000). If no DTCs are present and a no start condition exists, proceed to appropriate «BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES - V6 & V8»(ref-151953) article. If results are OK, go to step 13. If the results are not good, go to the next step.
  12. Intermittent Problem Check Check for intermittent problems. See «INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS CHECK (HAND-HELD TESTER ONLY)»(ref-151954-S11476329032003081200000).
  13. Verification Procedure Identify problem and make necessary adjustments and repairs. After repairs have been completed, clear all DTCs from ECM. See «CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES»(ref-151954-S22549028572003010900000). Perform road test. Ensure no DTCs exist and all symptoms and/or complaints have been repaired.

MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT INSPECTION

Note. The malfunction indicator light (MIL) may also be referred to as CHECK ENGINE light. Inspect MIL to ensure it is operational and will come on if a diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is set.

  1. The MIL comes on when the ignition switch is turned ON and the engine is not running. If the MIL does not light up, trouble shoot the combination meter. See appropriate INSTRUMENT PANELS article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT.
  2. When the engine started, the MIL should go off. If the lamp remains on, the diagnosis system has detected a malfunction or abnormality in the system. See «TESTING PROCEDURE»(ref-151954-S12346437822003010900000) .

NORMAL Mode DTC Retrieval

Note. If there is no DTC in the normal mode, check the 1st trip DTC using Continuous Test Results function (Mode 7 for SAE J1979) or the OBD II scan tool or hand-held tester.

Note. Hand-held tester only: When the diagnosis system is switched from the normal mode to the check mode, it erases all DTCs and freeze frame data recorded in the normal mode. So before switching modes, always check the DTC and freeze frame data and note them down.

Note. When simulating symptoms with an OBD II scan tool (excluding hand-held tester) to check the DTC, use the normal mode. For code on the DTC chart subject to 2 trip detection logic, perform either of the following actions: Turn the ignition switch OFF after the symptom is simulated the 1st time. Then repeat the simulation process again. When the problem has been simulated twice, the MIL lights up and the DTCs are recorded in the ECM. Check the 1st trip DTC using Mode 7 (Continuous Test Results) for SAE J1979.

  1. Prepare the OBD II scan tool (complying with SAE J1978) or hand-held tester.
  2. Connect the OBD II scan tool or hand-held tester to the DLC3 at the lower center of the instrument panel. see scheme 1 Turn the ignition switch ON and push the OBD II scan tool or hand-held tester switch ON.
  3. Use the OBD II scan tool or hand-held tester to check the DTC and freeze frame data and note them down. For operating instructions, see the OBD II scan tool's instruction book. If there is no DTC in normal mode, check the 1st trip DTC using Continuous Test Results function (Mode 7 for SAE J1979) on OBD II scan tool or hand-held tester.
  4. Confirm the details of the DTC and perform appropriate test. See «DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DEFINITIONS»(ref-151954-S05451980122003010900000) table.
  5. After repairs for DTC have been completed, DTC must be cleared from engine control module (ECM). See «CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES»(ref-151954-S22549028572003010900000). Road test vehicle to ensure all symptoms and/or complaints have been repaired.

CHECK Mode DTC Retrieval (Hand-Held Tester Only)

Note. If the hand-held tester switches the ECM from the normal mode to the check mode or vice-versa, or if the ignition switch is turned from ON to ACC or OFF during the check mode, the DTCs and freeze frame data will be erased.

Compared to the normal mode, the check mode has an increased sensitivity to detect malfunction. Furthermore, the same diagnostic items which are detected in the normal mode can also be detected in the check mode.

  1. Ensure vehicle battery positive voltage is 11 V or more. Apply parking brake. Place transaxle in P or N. Ensure A/C and ignition are off. Check that throttle valve is fully closed.
  2. Prepare the hand-held tester and connect it to the DLC3 at the lower center of the instrument panel. see scheme 1
  3. Turn ignition ON and then turn hand-held tester ON.
  4. Switch hand-held tester from the normal mode to the check mode. Check that the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on instrument cluster flashes to indicate CHECK mode operation.
  5. Start the engine. If no DTCs are present, MIL will turn off. Simulate the conditions of the malfunction described by customer. NOTE: Leave the ignition switch ON until you have checked the DTC, etc. Turning the ignition switch OFF switches the diagnosis system from the check mode to the normal mode, so all DTCs, etc. are erased.
  6. After simulating the malfunction conditions, use the hand-held tester diagnosis selector to check the DTC and freeze frame data, etc. If driveability problem exists and no DTCs are present, go to «TROUBLE SHOOTING - NO CODES»(ref-151977) article for diagnosis by symptom.
  7. If any DTCs exist, perform appropriate DTC test. See «DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE DEFINITIONS»(ref-151954-S06837564092003010900000).
  8. After repairs for DTC have been completed, DTC must be cleared from engine control module (ECM). See «CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES»(ref-151954-S22549028572003010900000). Road test vehicle to ensure all symptoms and/or complaints have been repaired.

CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES

The DTCs and freeze frame data will be erased by either of the following actions

  1. Operating the OBD II scan tool (complying with SAE J1978) or hand-held tester to erase the codes. See the OBD II scan tool's instruction book for operating instructions.
  2. DTCs and freeze frame data may also be cleared by removing EFI No. 1 fuse (15-amp). The EFI No. 1 fuse is located in fuse/relay box at driver's side front corner of engine compartment. DTCs and freeze frame data may also be cleared by disconnecting negative battery cable. However, other various memory functions such as the clock, radio, alarm, seats, etc. will be cleared and must be reset.

BASIC INSPECTION

When the malfunction code is not confirmed in the DTC check, trouble shooting should be performed in order for all possible circuits to be considered as the cause of the problems. In many cases, by carrying out the basic engine check shown in the following flowchart, the location causing the problem can be found quickly and efficiently. Therefore, use of this check is essential in engine trouble shooting. (Scheme 59)- (Scheme 61).

TEST DRIVE CONFIRMATION

  1. On certain diagnostic trouble codes (DTC), once DTC has been cleared from engine control module (ECM) memory, test drive confirmation can be performed to verify repairs are made and that DTC does not reset. Test drive confirmation will duplicate conditions required to set specified DTCs.
  2. Test drive confirmation lists the procedure to be performed to check that DTC does not reset. Test drive confirmation applies only to specific DTCs. Test drive confirmation will be included within proper DTC test under DIAGNOSTIC TESTS.
  1. If your display shows UNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLE when you have connected the cable of the OBD II scan tool or hand-held tester to the DLC3, turned the ignition switch ON and operated the scan tool, there is a problem on the vehicle side or tool side. If communication is normal when the tool is connected to another vehicle, inspect the DLC3 on the original vehicle. Go to next step. If communication is still not possible when the tool is connected to another vehicle, the problem is probably in the tool itself, so consult the Service Department listed in the tool's instruction manual.
  2. Measure voltage between body ground and specified DLC3 terminals. See «INSPECTING DATA LINK CONNECTOR NO. 3 CONDITION»(ref-151954-S29299454642003010900000) table. (Scheme 62) The vehicle's ECM uses ISO 9141-2 for communication. The terminal arrangement of DLC3 complies with SAE J1962 and matches the ISO 9141-2 format.

The camshaft position sensor (G (VV) signal) consists of a magnet, iron core and pickup coil. The G (VV) signal has 3 teeth on it's outer circumference and is installed to the camshaft timing gear. When the camshafts rotate, the protrusion on the signal plate and the air gap on the pickup coil change, causing fluctuations in the magnetic field and generating an electromotive force in the pickup coil. The actual camshaft angle is detected by the camshaft position sensor and it provides feedback to the engine control module (ECM) to control the intake valve timing in response to driving condition. Possible causes are

  1. DTC P0016 Deviation in the crankshaft position sensor signal and VVT sensor (bank 1) signal (2 trip detection logic).
  2. DTC P0018 Deviation in the crankshaft position sensor signal and VVT sensor (bank 2) signal (2 trip detection logic).

Note. If DTC P0441 (purge flow), P0446 (VSV for CCV or VSV for pressure switching valve), P0450 or P0451 (evaporative pressure sensor) is output with DTC P0442 or P0456, first trouble shoot DTC P0441, P0446, P0450 or P0451. If no malfunction is detected, trouble shoot DTC P0442 or P0456 next. Read freeze frame data using OBD II scan tool or held-held tester. Freeze frame records the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected. When trouble shooting, it is useful for determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine was warmed up or not, the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction. When the ENGINE RUN TIME in the freeze frame data is less than 200 seconds, carefully check the vapor pressure sensor.

Note. If DTC P0560 appears, the engine control module (ECM) does not store another DTC.

Battery positive voltage is supplied to terminal BATT of the ECM even when the ignition switch is OFF for use by the DTC memory and air-fuel ratio adaptive control value memory, etc. Possible causes are

  1. Open in back up power source circuit.
  2. Defective ECM.

Note. After confirming DTC P0705 and P0850, use the hand-held tester to confirm the park/neutral position (PNP) switch signal from the CURRENT DATA.

The PNP goes on when the shift lever is in the N or P shift position. When it goes on, terminal NSW of the engine control module (ECM) is grounded to body ground via the starter relay, thus the terminal NSW voltage becomes 0 V. When the shift lever is in the D, 2, L or R position, the PNP switch goes off, so the voltage of the ECM. Terminal NSW becomes battery voltage, the voltage of the ECM internal power source. If the shift lever is moved from the N position to the D position, this signal is used for air-fuel ratio correction and for idle speed control (estimated control), etc. Possible causes are

  1. DTC P0705 Two or more switches are ON simultaneously for R, N, 2 and L positions (2 trip detection logic).
  2. DTC P0850 When the vehicle speed is 25 mph (40 km/h) or more and the engine speed is between 1500-4000 RPM for 30 seconds or more with the park/neutral position switch ON (N position), 2 trip detection logic.
  3. Short in PNP switch circuit.
  4. Defective PNP switch.
  5. Defective ECM.

Note. Read freeze frame data using OBD II scan tool or hand-held tester. Because freeze frame records the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected. When trouble shooting, it is useful for determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine was warmed up or not, the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction.

For wiring diagram and diagnostic procedure, see appropriate DIAGNOSIS article in AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS.

This signal is used to detect when the brakes have been applied. The STP signal voltage is the same as the voltage supplied to the stop lights. The STP signal is used mainly to control the fuel cut off engine speed (the fuel cut off engine speed is reduced slightly when the vehicle is braking). Possible causes are

  1. Stop light switch does not turn off when driving repeatedly at 19 mph (30 km/h) or more 10 times or more after depressing the brake (2 trip detection logic).
  2. Short in stop light switch signal circuit.
  3. Defective stop light switch.
  4. Defective engine control module (ECM).
