If no DTCs are present and a no start condition exists, proceed to appropriate BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES article. If no DTCs are present and a driveability condition exists, proceed to TROUBLE SHOOTING - NO CODES article for diagnosis by symptom (i.e., ROUGH IDLE, ENGINE STALLS, etc.).
7. Verification Procedure After repairs have been completed, clear all DTCs from ECM. See «CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES»(ref-63532-S00674546572001062700000) . Perform road test. Ensure no DTCs exist and all symptoms and/or complaints have been repaired.

RETRIEVING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES

Note. Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC) may be retrieved using Toyota hand-held tester or On-Board Diagnostic (OBD-II) scan tool that complies with SAE standard J-1978. Toyota hand-held tester or OBD-II scan tool may be operated in NORMAL mode when retrieving DTCs. Only Toyota hand-held 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 during which DTC was set. CHECK mode contains a higher sensing ability to detect malfunctions. CHECK mode helps determine malfunctions caused by poor electrical connections or intermittent problems which are difficult to determine using NORMAL mode.

Note. If using Toyota hand-held tester, when ignition switch is turned from ON to ACC or OFF position, hand-held tester is switched from NORMAL mode to CHECK mode or from CHECK MODE to NORMAL mode, all DTCs and freeze frame data will be erased from ECM. DO NOT switch modes until all DTCs and freeze frame data have been recorded.

Engine Control Module (ECM) uses input signals provided by crankshaft and camshaft position sensors to monitor the changes in crankshaft rotation. If engine speed rate changes enough to equal a preset number, a misfire is detected and Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is illuminated. If misfire rate is great enough and driving conditions will cause catalytic converter damage or overheating, the MIL will blink when misfire is occurring. DTC is set when misfiring of random cylinders is detected during any particular 200 or 1000 revolutions. Possible causes are

1. Open or short in engine wiring harness.
2. Defective connections at ECM or component.
3. Disconnected, restricted or damaged vacuum hose(s).
4. Ignition system malfunction.
5. Defective fuel injector(s).
6. Improper fuel pressure.
7. Defective Mass Airflow (MAF) meter.
8. Defective Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor.
9. Improper engine compression.
10. Improper valve clearance.
11. Improper valve timing.

When 2 or more DTCs for misfiring cylinder are recorded repeatedly and DTC P0300 does not exist, it indicates misfires were detected and recorded at different times. If misfire cannot be reproduced, the reason may be because vehicle was driven with a lack of fuel, improper fuel, fouled spark plug or etc. Using Toyota hand-held tester or scan tool, read FREEZE FRAME data. Freeze frame data records engine conditions when malfunction is detected. If COOLANT TEMP displayed in freeze frame data is less than 176°F (80°C), there is a possibility that misfire only exists during warm-up.

If oscilloscope is available, fuel injector operation on misfiring cylinder may be checked by reading the fuel injector signal waveform pattern and fuel injector duration signal waveform pattern which may be checked by connecting oscilloscope between terminal No. 21 (White/Black wire) at ECM electrical connector E7 and fuel injector driver terminal at ECM with engine idling. Terminal No. 21 is the E01 terminal on ECM. For ECM electrical connector terminal identification (Scheme 245) For fuel injector driver identification, see IDENTIFYING ECM FUEL INJECTOR DRIVER TERMINALS table. ECM is located behind glove box and heater duct. see scheme 2 Fuel injector signal waveform pattern and fuel injector duration signal wave pattern should be properly displayed within proper intervals.

If voltage is not within specification, go to next step. If voltage is within specification, replace ECM.
2. Turn ignition off. Disconnect electrical connector for A/F sensor. A/F sensor is located on exhaust pipe in front of catalytic converter. Using ohmmeter, check resistance for heater on A/F sensor between +B and HT terminals on electrical connector for A/F sensor. see scheme 17 Resistance should be.8-1.4 ohms at 68°F (20°C) and 1.8-3.2 ohms at 1472°F (800°C). If resistance is within specification, go to next step. If resistance is not within specification, replace A/F sensor.
3. Check wiring harness and electrical connectors between EFI main relay and A/F sensor, and between A/F sensor and ECM. See WIRING DIAGRAMS article. EFI main relay may also be referred to as EFI relay. EFI main relay is located in fuse/relay box at driver's side front corner of engine compartment. Repair wiring harness or electrical connectors as necessary.

1. If using Toyota hand-held tester, go to next step. If Toyota hand-held tester is not available, go to step 6.
2. Check stoplight operation. If stoplights operate properly, go to next step. If stoplights do not operate properly, repair as necessary and retest system. See EXTERIOR LIGHTS article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT.
3. Connect Toyota hand-held tester to Data Link Connector (DLC) No. 3. see scheme 1 Turn ignition on and then turn hand-held tester on.
4. Monitor STP signal on hand-held tester while depressing and releasing brake pedal. STP signal should indicate ON with brake pedal depressed and OFF with brake pedal released. If STP signal is not as specified, go to next step. If STP signal is as specified, problem is intermittent. Check for defective connections or intermittent problem in wiring harness between stoplight switch and ECM, and for intermittent problem with stoplight switch. ECM is located behind glove box and heater duct. see scheme 2 See WIRING DIAGRAMS article. Stoplight switch is located near top of brake pedal.
5. Check wiring harness and electrical connectors between stoplight switch and ECM. See WIRING DIAGRAMS article. Stoplight switch is located near top of brake pedal. ECM is located behind glove box and heater duct. see scheme 2 If wiring harness and electrical connectors are okay, replace ECM. If wiring harness or electrical connectors are defective, repair as necessary.
6. Check stoplight operation. If stoplights operate properly, go to next step. If stoplights do not operate properly, repair as necessary and retest system. See EXTERIOR LIGHTS article in ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT.
7. Remove glove box and heater duct (if necessary) for access to ECM with electrical connectors still installed on ECM. see scheme 2 Turn ignition on.
8. Using voltmeter, check voltage between body ground and terminal No. 15 (Green/White wire) at ECM electrical connector E3 while depressing and releasing brake pedal. (Scheme 245) This is the STP terminal on ECM.
9. With brake pedal depressed, voltage should be 7.5-14.0 volts. With brake pedal released, voltage should be less than 1.5 volts. If voltage is not within specification, go to next step. If voltage is within specification, problem is intermittent. Check for defective connections or intermittent problem in wiring harness and electrical connectors between stoplight switch and ECM, and for intermittent problem with stoplight switch. See WIRING DIAGRAMS article. Stoplight switch is located near top of brake pedal.
10. Check wiring harness and electrical connectors between stoplight switch and ECM. See WIRING DIAGRAMS article. Stoplight switch is located near top of brake pedal. If wiring harness and electrical connectors are okay, replace ECM. If wiring harness or electrical connectors are defective, repair as necessary.

1. Remove glove box and heater duct (if necessary) for access to ECM with electrical connectors still installed on ECM. see scheme 2 Using voltmeter, check voltage between body ground and terminal No. 1 (Black/Red wire) at ECM electrical connector E3. (Scheme 245) This is the BATT terminal on ECM. Voltage should be 9-14 volts. If voltage is not within specification, go to next step. If voltage is within specification, replace ECM.
2. Remove EFI No. 1 fuse (15-amp) from fuse/relay box at driver's side front corner of engine compartment. Inspect EFI No. 1 fuse. If EFI No. 1 fuse is okay, reinstall fuse. Check wiring harness and electrical connectors between EFI No. 1 fuse and ECM. See WIRING DIAGRAMS article. It may be necessary to check wiring between battery and EFI No. 1 fuse. For additional wiring for EFI No. 1 fuse to the battery, see POWER DISTRIBUTION article in WIRING DIAGRAMS. If EFI No. 1 fuse is defective, replace fuse and check for short in wiring harness and components connected to EFI No. 1 fuse. See WIRING DIAGRAMS article.
