INTRODUCTION
If no faults were found while performing BASIC TESTING , proceed with self-diagnostics. If no Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) are present after entering self-diagnostics, proceed to TESTS W/O CODES article for diagnosis by symptom (i.e., ROUGH IDLE, NO START, etc.).
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The ECM monitors engine operation and contains a self-diagnostic system which stores Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and complies to On-Board Diagnostics Generation II (OBD-II) standards.
Self-diagnostic system is used to provide vehicle with an on-board diagnostic system which is capable of continuously monitoring the efficiency of emission control system, and to improve diagnosis and repair when system failures occur.
The Federal Test Procedure (FTP) sets maximum allowable emission standards. A Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) must illuminate if a system or component either fails or deteriorates to a point where the vehicle emissions could rise above 1 1/2 times FTP standards.
If malfunction does not reoccur in 3 ignition cycles, the MIL goes off, but DTCs remain recorded in ECM memory. DTCs may only be retrieved using an On-Board Diagnostic (OBD-II) scan tester that complies with SAE standard J-1978 or Toyota scan tester connected to new standardized Data Link Connector No. 3 (DLC3). The scan tester also provides freeze-frame data and can be used to clear codes.
TWO-TRIP DETECTION LOGIC
When a malfunction initially occurs, Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will be temporarily stored in ECM memory, but MIL on instrument panel will not illuminate. The second time malfunction is detected, MIL on instrument panel will illuminate, provided ignition is turned off and then back on after first malfunction was detected. This is referred to as the 2-Trip Detection Logic and only applies to specific DTCs.
Note. When road testing vehicle in CHECK mode (Toyota scan tester only), the Two Trip Detection Logic will not function. Also, MIL will illuminate first time a malfunction is detected.
DATA LINK CONNECTOR
OBD-II regulations (SAE J-1850) standardizes Data Link Connector (DLC) configurations. See DATA LINK CONNECTOR NO . 3 (DLC3) LOCATION table.

| Land Cruiser, LX450 | At Left Side Of Instrument Panel, Left Of Steering Column |
DATA LINK CONNECTOR NO. 3 (DLC3) LOCATION
FREEZE-FRAME DATA
OBD-II or Toyota scan tester can by used to check freeze-frame data. The ECM records engine operating condition when a misfire, fuel trim (mixture) malfunction or other malfunction (fuel system, calculated load, coolant temperature, fuel trim (mixture), engine speed, vehicle speed, etc.) exists. If more than one fault is detected, only data from the first malfunction is recorded. Recorded data is useful for determining conditions in which the malfunction occurs.
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT (MIL) INSPECTION
Note. The CHECK engine light located on instrument cluster is known as Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL). Inspect MIL to ensure it is operational and will come on if a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is set.
- Turn ignition on with engine off. MIL should come on and remain on. If MIL does not come on, check bulb circuit on instrument cluster and wiring circuit between MIL and ECM. See appropriate wiring diagram in WIRING DIAGRAMS article. See «ECM LOCATION»(/toyota/land-cruiser/80-1995-1997/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-tests-wcodes__ecm-location) .
- Start engine and ensure MIL goes off. If MIL remains on with engine running, a malfunction is detected. Proceed to RETRIEVING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES.
TESTING PROCEDURE
To ensure correct diagnosis and repair, testing should be done in the following sequence
- Record Customer Complaint: Ensure all customer complaints or observations are recorded. Test drive vehicle with customer when necessary for malfunction verification.
- Retrieve Diagnostic Trouble Codes: Connect appropriate scan tool. Retrieve codes and record any freeze-frame data (if applicable). See «RETRIEVING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES»(/toyota/land-cruiser/80-1995-1997/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-tests-wcodes__retrieving-diagnostic-trouble-codes) .
- Clear Trouble Codes: See «CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES»(/toyota/land-cruiser/80-1995-1997/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-tests-wcodes__clearing-diagnostic-trouble-codes) .
- Visual Inspection: Inspect all connectors of suspect circuit or component. Ensure all connections are clean and tight.
- Confirm Symptoms & Trouble Codes: Perform road test. Determine if original symptoms are still present. Retrieve codes.
- Diagnose & Repair Diagnostic Trouble Codes: Perform diagnosis and repair procedures as necessary. See «TROUBLE CODE IDENTIFICATION»(/toyota/land-cruiser/80-1995-1997/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-tests-wcodes) table. If no codes are present, proceed to the TESTS W/O CODES article for diagnosis by symptom (i.e., ROUGH IDLE, NO START, etc.).
- Verification Procedure: After repairs have been completed, clear trouble codes. See «CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES»(/toyota/land-cruiser/80-1995-1997/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-tests-wcodes__clearing-diagnostic-trouble-codes) . Perform road test. Ensure no codes are present and all symptoms and/or complaints have been repaired.
RETRIEVING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
Note. Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) may be retrieved using Toyota scan tester or On-Board Diagnostic (OBD-II) scan tester that complies with SAE standard J-1978. Toyota scan tester or OBD-II scan tester may be operated in NORMAL mode when retrieving trouble codes. Only Toyota scan tester may be used in CHECK mode when retrieving DTCs.
NORMAL mode is used to retrieve DTCs from Engine Control Module (ECM). CHECK mode is used to check for DTCs when operating vehicle to simulate conditions in which DTC was set. CHECK mode contains a higher sensing ability to detect malfunctions. CHECK mode helps determine malfunctions caused by poor electrical connections, which are difficult to determine using NORMAL mode.
Note. If using Toyota scan tester, when ignition switch is turned from ON to ACC or OFF position or scan tester is switched from NORMAL mode to CHECK mode, all DTCs and freeze-frame data will be erased. DO NOT switch modes until all DTCs and freeze-frame data are recorded.
NORMAL Mode Code Retrieval
- Connect scan tester to Data Link Connector No. 3 (DLC3). Turn ignition on with engine off. Turn scan tester on. Using scan tester manufacturer's instructions, check for DTCs and freeze-frame data.
- If scan tester displays UNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLE, DLC3 must be checked. See «DLC3 INSPECTION»(/toyota/land-cruiser/80-1995-1997/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-tests-wcodes__dlc3-inspection) under SCAN TESTER PROBLEMS. If scan tester does not display UNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLE, go to next step.
- Record any DTCs and freeze-frame data displayed for system diagnosis. If driveability problem exists and no DTCs are present, go to TESTS W/O CODES article for diagnosis by symptom.
- If any DTCs are present, perform appropriate circuit test. See «TROUBLE CODE IDENTIFICATION»(/toyota/land-cruiser/80-1995-1997/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-tests-wcodes) table. For more information on freeze-frame data, see «FREEZE-FRAME DATA»(/toyota/land-cruiser/80-1995-1997/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-tests-wcodes__freeze-frame-data) under INTRODUCTION.

- After repairs for DTC have been completed, DTCs must be cleared from ECM memory. See «CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES»(/toyota/land-cruiser/80-1995-1997/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-tests-wcodes__clearing-diagnostic-trouble-codes) .
CHECK Mode Code Retrieval (Toyota Scan Tester Only)
- Ensure vehicle battery is fully charged. Apply parking brake. Shift transmission/transaxle into Neutral (M/T) or Park (A/T). Turn A/C and all accessories off. Ensure throttle is in idle position.
- Turn ignition off. Connect scan tester to Data Link Connector No. 3 (DLC3). See «DATA LINK CONNECTOR»(/toyota/land-cruiser/80-1995-1997/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-tests-wcodes__data-link-connector) . Turn ignition on with engine off. Turn scan tester on.
- Switch scan tester from NORMAL mode to CHECK mode. CHECK mode is operational if MIL on instrument cluster flashes. Start engine. Ensure MIL goes off. Try to simulate conditions of driveability complaint described by customer. NOTE: If ignition switch is turned from ON to ACC or OFF position, all DTCs and freeze-frame data will be erased. DO NOT switch modes until all DTCs and freeze-frame data are recorded.
- Record any DTCs and freeze-frame data displayed for system diagnosis. If driveability problem exists and no codes are present, go to TESTS W/O CODES article for diagnosis by symptom.
- If any DTCs are present, perform appropriate circuit test. See «TROUBLE CODE IDENTIFICATION»(/toyota/land-cruiser/80-1995-1997/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-tests-wcodes) table. For more information on freeze-frame data, see «FREEZE-FRAME DATA»(/toyota/land-cruiser/80-1995-1997/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-tests-wcodes__freeze-frame-data) . For information on 2-trip detection logic codes, see «TWO-TRIP DETECTION LOGIC»(/toyota/land-cruiser/80-1995-1997/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-tests-wcodes__two-trip-detection-logic) .
- After repairs for DTC have been completed, DTC must be cleared from ECM memory. See «CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES»(/toyota/land-cruiser/80-1995-1997/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-tests-wcodes__clearing-diagnostic-trouble-codes) .
CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES
- After performing repairs, clear ECM memory of all stored Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and freeze-frame data. DTCs and freeze-frame data may be cleared by using scan tester and scan tester manufacturer's instructions. NOTE: If using Toyota scan tester, DTCs and freeze-frame data may be cleared by switching from CHECK mode to NORMAL mode or from NORMAL mode to CHECK mode.
- DTCs and freeze-frame data may also be cleared by removing EFI fuse from fuse block, located in engine compartment. DTCs and freeze-frame data may also be cleared by disconnecting negative battery cable. However, other memory functions (clock, radio, alarm, seats, etc.) will be cancelled and must be reset.

DTC P1300 - IGNITER CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION
| CAUTION | If ECM replacement is instructed in following testing, always ensure ECM connectors and ground circuit are okay. If either are suspect, repair and repeat testing to confirm ECM malfunction. |
The ECM uses pick-up coil input signals to switch primary ignition circuit on and off. Primary circuit is turned off when ECM delivers a signal to igniter on the IGT wire, causing ignition coil to fire spark plug. After delivering a command to turn off primary circuit on IGT wire, the ECM monitors IGF circuit to ensure primary switching occurred. DTC is set when there is no IGF signal to ECM for 6 consecutive IGT signals during engine operation. Possible causes are
- IGF or IGT open or short circuit from igniter to ECM.
- Igniter.
- ECM.
- Check for spark at misfiring cylinder. See IGNITION CHECKS in «BASIC TESTING»(/toyota/land-cruiser/80-1995-1997/remont/testing-diagnostics/#engine-controls-basic-testing) article. If spark is present, go to next step. If spark is not present, go to step 4).
