1986 TOYOTA CAMRY V20 battery

HINT: When checking for continuity in circuits which
contain an LED, please observe the following in-
structions.
(a) Use a tester with a power source of 3V or greater to
overcome the circuit resistance.
(b) If a suitable tester is not available, apply battery volt-
age and check that the LED lights up.
If there is no continuity as specified, replace the A/C
switch.

2. CHECK VACUUM CIRCUIT CONTINUITY IN VSV 8*
BLOWING AIR INTO PIPE
(a) Connect the VSV terminals to the battery terminals
as shown.
(b) Blow into pipe ºAº, and check that air comes out of
pipe ºBº but does not come out of filter ºCº.
4. CHECK FOR OPEN CIRCUIT
Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between the
two terminals of the VSV.
Specified resistance: 37 ± 44

at 20°C (68°F)
If resistance value is not as specified, replace the VSV. 3. CHECK FOR SHORT CIRCUIT
Using an ohmmeter, check that there is no continuity be-
tween each terminal and the VSV body.
If a short circuit is found, repair or replace the VSV.(c) Disconnect the battery.
(d) Blow into pipe ºAº and check that air comes out
of filter ºCº but does not come out of pipe ºBº.
If a problem is found, replace the VSV.

Diagnosis System (A140E)
DESCRIPTION
1. A self±diagnosis function is built into the electrical control system.
Warning is indicated by the overdrive OFF indicator.
HINT: Warning and diagnostic codes can be read only when
the overdrive switch is ON. If OFF, the overdrive OFF
indicator is lit continuously and will not blink.
(a) If a malfunction occurs within the speed sensors (No.
1 or 2) or solenoids (No. 1 or 2), the overdrive OFF
light will blink to. warn the driver. .
However, there will be no warning of a malfunction with
lock±up solenoid.
(b) The diagnostic code can be read by the number of blinks of
the overdrive OFF indicator when terminals
Tt and E1 are short±circuited. (See page AT±17)
tc) The throttle position sensor or brake signal are not indi-
cated, but inspection can be made by checking the voltage at
terminal Tt of the check connector (diagnosis).
(d) The signals to each gear can be checked by measuring the
voltage at terminal Tt of the check connector while driving.
2. The diagnostic (malfunction) code is retained in memory by the
CPU and due to back±up voltage, is not canceled out when the
engine is turned off. Consequently, after repair, it is necessary
to turn the ignition switch off and remove the fuse EFI (15A) or
disconnect the ECT computer connector to cancel out the diag-
nostic (malfunction)
code. (See page AT±18)
HINT:
wLow battery voltage will cause faulty operation of the diag-
nosis system. Therefore, always check the battery first.
w Use a voltmeter and ohmmeter that have an impedance
of at least 10 k 11 IV.
CHECK O/D OFF INDICATOR LIGHT
1. Turn the ignition switch ON.
2. The O/D OFF light will come on when the O/D switch is
placed at OFF.
3. When the O/D switch is set to ON, the O/D OFF light
should go out.
If the O/D OFF light flashes when the O/D switch is set
to ON, the electronic control system is faulty.

CANCEL OUT DIAGNOSTIC CODE
1. After repair of the trouble area, the diagnostic code
retained in memory by the ECT ECU must be canceled by
removing the fuse EFI (15A) for 10 seconds or more, de-
pending on ambient temperature (the lower the tempera-
ture, the longer the fuse must be left out) with the ignition
switch OFF.
HINT:
wCancellation can be also done by removing the battery
negative (±) terminal, but in this case other memory sys-
tems (TCCS diagnosis memory, etc.) will be also can-
celed out.
wThe diagnostic code can be also canceled out by discon-
necting the ECT ECU connector.
wIf the diagnostic code is not canceled out, it will be
retained by the ECT ECU and appear along with a new
code in event of future trouble.
2. After cancellation, perform a road test to confirm that a
ºnormal codeº is now read on the O/D OFF indicator. HINT: If codes 62, 63 or 64 appear, there is an
electrical malfunction in the solenoid.
Causes due to ±mechanical failure, such as a
stuck valve, will not appear.
