INTRODUCTION

Note. References to California models apply to California emission vehicles, which may be verified by underhood Emission Control label. California emissions may be available in other states.

Before testing separate components or systems, perform procedures in BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES - V6 & V8 article. Since many computer-controlled and monitored components set a diagnostic trouble code if they malfunction, also perform procedures in appropriate SELF-DIAGNOSTICS article.

Note. Testing individual components does not isolate short or open circuits. Perform all voltage tests with a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm input impedance, unless stated otherwise in test procedure. Use ohmmeter to isolate shorted or open wiring harness.

Note. When performing test procedures, technican may be instructed to use scan tool during testing procedure. This scan tool may be referred to as Toyota hand-held tester. If using OBD-II scan tool, this scan tool may not have all of the capabilities as the Toyota hand-held tester.

ACOUSTIC CONTROL INDUCTION SYSTEM (ACIS)

Note. ACIS may also be referred to as Intake Air Control Valve (IACV) system.

  1. ACIS uses 2 intake air control valves, one on end of air intake chamber and one near throttle bodies. (Scheme 298) Intake air control valve on end of air intake chamber may also be referred to as No. 2 intake air control valve. Intake air control valve near throttle bodies may also be referred to as No. 1 intake air control valve. Operation of actuator valve for each intake air control valve should be checked. Using 3-way connector, connect vacuum gauge in vacuum line to actuator valve for appropriate intake air control valve. (Scheme 299) Start engine. With engine idling, ensure no vacuum reading is obtained.
  2. Fully open throttle and ensure vacuum reading momentarily reads approximately 7.9 in. Hg and actuator valve rod pulls inward. If actuator valve rod pulls inward, system is operating properly. If actuator valve rod does not pull inward, go to next step.
  3. Disconnect vacuum hose from appropriate actuator valve. Using vacuum pump, apply 7.9 in. Hg of vacuum to actuator valve. Ensure actuator valve rod pulls inward and remains pulled inward for at least one minute. If actuator valve does not operate properly, replace intake air control valve assembly. If actuator valve operates properly, reconnect vacuum hose. Check ACIS control circuit. See «ACOUSTIC CONTROL INDUCTION SYSTEM (ACIS) CONTROL CIRCUIT»(/toyota/camry-solara/i-1998-2003/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-system-component-testing-v6-v8__acoustic-control-induction-system-acis-control) under COMPUTERIZED ENGINE CONTROLS.

  1. ACIS uses intake air control valve on end of air intake chamber. (Scheme 300) Using 3-way connector, connect vacuum gauge in vacuum line to actuator valve. (Scheme 300) Actuator valve is located at end of air intake chamber. Start engine. With engine idling, ensure no vacuum reading is obtained.
  2. Fully open throttle and ensure vacuum reading momentarily reads approximately 7.9 in. Hg and actuator valve rod pulls inward. If actuator valve rod pulls inward, system is operating properly. If actuator valve rod does not pull inward, go to next step.
  3. Disconnect vacuum hose from actuator valve. Using vacuum pump, apply 7.9 in. Hg of vacuum to actuator valve. Ensure actuator valve rod pulls inward and remains pulled inward for at least one minute. If actuator valve does not operate properly, replace intake air control valve assembly. If actuator valve operates properly, reconnect vacuum hose. Check ACIS control circuit. See «ACOUSTIC CONTROL INDUCTION SYSTEM (ACIS) CONTROL CIRCUIT»(/toyota/camry-solara/i-1998-2003/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-system-component-testing-v6-v8__acoustic-control-induction-system-acis-control) under COMPUTERIZED ENGINE CONTROLS.

ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL SYSTEM (ETCS)

Note. The ETCS may also be referred to as Electronic Throttle Control System-Intelligent (ETCS-I or ETCS-i).

Land Cruiser & Tundra 4.7L V8

For testing of throttle body and components, see THROTTLE BODY under IDLE CONTROL SYSTEMS.

ACOUSTIC CONTROL INDUCTION SYSTEM (ACIS) CONTROL CIRCUIT

Note. ACIS control circuit may also be referred to as Intake Air Control Valve (IACV) system control circuit.

Note. On Avalon models, 2 intake air control valve VSVs are used. Intake air control valve No. 1 VSV is for intake air control valve near throttle bodies which may also be referred to as No. 1 intake air control valve. Intake air control valve No. 2 VSV is for intake air control valve on end of air intake chamber which may also be referred to as No. 2 intake air control valve.

Note. VVT camshaft timing oil control valve may also be referred to as oil control valve for VVT, VVT Oil Control Valve (OCV) or camshaft timing oil control valve VVT.

  1. Remove "V" bank cover on top of engine for access to VVT camshaft timing oil control valves. VVT camshaft timing oil control valves are located on end of cylinder head at flywheel end of engine. (Scheme 453)
  2. To check VVT camshaft timing oil control valve resistance, disconnect electrical connector at appropriate VVT camshaft timing oil control valve. Using ohmmeter, check resistance between electrical terminals on VVT camshaft timing oil control valve. Resistance should be 6.9-7.9 ohms @ 68°F (20°C). If resistance is within specification, go to next step. If resistance is not within specification, replace VVT camshaft timing oil control valve.
  3. To check VVT camshaft timing oil control valve operation, remove retaining bolt and appropriate VVT camshaft timing oil control valve with "O" ring from cylinder head. Note movement of the valve inside VVT camshaft timing oil control valve while applying and disconnecting battery voltage and ground to terminals No. 1 and 2 on VVT camshaft timing oil control valve. (Scheme 454) Valve should move outward toward end of assembly opposite electrical connector with voltage applied and should move inward toward electrical connector end of assembly with voltage not applied. (Scheme 454) Replace VVT camshaft timing oil control valve if operation is not as specified. Reinstall VVT camshaft timing oil control valve using NEW "O" ring. Tighten retaining bolt to 66 INCH lbs. (7.5 N.m).

  1. Start engine and warm engine to normal operating temperature. Ensure idle speed is within specification. See IDLE SPEED & MIXTURE in ON-VEHICLE ADJUSTMENTS - V6 & V8 article. Shut engine off. Remove cap, filter and separator from dashpot on throttle body. (Scheme 455)
  2. Start engine. Maintain engine speed at 2500 RPM. Plug Vacuum Transmitting Valve (VTV) hole in dashpot with your finger. (Scheme 456)
  3. Release throttle. Dashpot should be extended and dashpot setting RPM should be 1800-2200 RPM. If dashpot setting RPM is not within specification, rotate dashpot adjusting screw to obtain correct RPM. (Scheme 457)
  4. Remove finger from VTV hole in dashpot. Ensure engine returns to proper idle speed in approximately one second. Install separator, filter and cap. Ensure filter is installed with the coarse surface facing outward (away from dashpot).

  1. Start engine and warm engine to normal operating temperature. Ensure idle speed is within specification. See IDLE SPEED & MIXTURE in ON-VEHICLE ADJUSTMENTS - V6 & V8 article.
  2. Shut engine off. Disconnect and plug vacuum hose at throttle opener near throttle body. (Scheme 458)- see scheme 166. Start engine and note engine speed. Engine speed should be within specification. See «THROTTLE OPENER SPECIFICATIONS»(/toyota/camry-solara/i-1998-2003/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-system-component-testing-v6-v8) table.
  3. If engine speed is not within specification, replace throttle body. Shut engine off. Reinstall vacuum hose on throttle opener. Start engine and ensure engine returns to proper idle speed.
