218Electronically Controlled Transmission and A/T Indicator
Previous automatic transmissions have selected each gear shift using mechanically controlled throttle hydraulic pressure,
governor hydraulic pressure and lock-up hydraulic pressure. The electronically controlled transmission, however, electrically
controls the line pressure, throttle pressure, lock-up pressure and accumulator pressure etc. through the solenoid valve. The
electronically controlled transmission is a system which precisely controls gear shift timing and lock-up timing in response to
the vehicle's driving conditions and the engine condition detected by various sensors. It makes smooth driving possible by
shift selection for each gear which is the most appropriate to the driving conditions at that time, and by preventing downing,
squat and gear shift shock when starting off.
1. Gear Shift Operation
When driving, the engine warm up condition is input as a signal to TERMINAL THW of the engine control module from the
engine coolant temp. sensor and the vehicle speed signal from vehicle speed sensor is input to TERMINAL SP2+ of the
engine control module. At the same time, the throttle valve opening signal from the throttle position sensor is input to
TERMINALS VTA1 and VTA2 of the engine control module as throttle angle signal.
Based on these signals, the engine control module selects the best shift position for the driving conditions and sends current
to the electronically controlled transmission solenoid.
2. Line Hydraulic Pressure Control
The engine control module adjusts the line hydraulic pressure to the optimal level by controlling TERMINAL SLT+ of the
module according to the engine torque data. This realizes the smooth gear shifting.
3. High Response Gear Shifting Control
The engine control module performs the high response engine torque up control to control the ignition-timing lag as well as
opening the electronic throttle when shifting down. By doing this, the gear shifting is performed in a short period of time.
Moreover, the engine control module uses the orifice switching control, which optimizes the speed of applying and reducing
the hydraulic pressure. And it realizes the fine shifting condition by applying and reducing hydraulic pressure slowly when
the gear shifting shock is important and quickly when the high response is required.
4. Clutch Hydraulic Pressure Control
The engine control module controls the clutch operation in the optimal timing and with the best hydraulic pressure according
to the engine torque data and the number of the clutch revolution
5. Lock-Up and Flexible Lock-Up Control
The engine control module carries out the lock-up control by controlling the TERMINAL SLU+ of the module according to
the shift position, vehicle speed, throttle opening degree and running conditions. The engine control module also steadily
keeps applying the lock-up clutch a delicate slippage to improve the transmission efficiency (Fuel efficiency) of the torque
converter.
6. Stop Light SW Circuit
If the brake pedal is depressed (Stop light SW on) when driving in lock-up condition, a signal is input to TERMINAL STP of
the engine control module. The engine control module operates and cuts the current to the solenoid to release lock-up.
7. Ai-Shift Control
The engine control module judges whether the road is downslope or upslope by detecting the throttle opening degree or the
vehicle's speed. Moreover it can expect the winding roads by detecting the turning condition of the vehicle. The engine
control module keeps unnecessary shifting up from the fourth gear from operating and carries out the automatic shifting
down to the third gear in order to control the vehicle running according to the road conditions. The engine control module
also reads the driver's intention during driving from his (her) accelerating operation and the running conditions of the vehicle.
As a result of that, ideal shifting patters for each driver are automatically selected without any switching operations.
8. Electronically Controlled Transmission Pattern Select SW Circuit
When the electronically controlled transmission pattern select SW is switched to PWR, a signal is input to TERMINAL PWR
of the engine control module. This enables shift-up and shift-down at a higher speed range.
9. Transfer Shift Operation
When the transfer shift lever is moved to L position, a signal is input into TERMINAL L4 of the engine control module.
In addition when the transfer shift lever is moved to N position a signal is input to engine control module TERMINAL TFN.
The engine control module detects the transfer condition through this.

234VSC
1. ABS Operation
If the brake pedal is depressed suddenly, the ABS controls the hydraulic pressure of the wheel cylinders for all the four
wheels to automatically avoid wheel locking and ensure the directional and steering stability of the vehicle. If the brake pedal
is depressed suddenly, the ABS & BA & TRAC & VSC ECU controls the solenoids in the actuators using the signals from the
sensors to move the brake fluid to the reservoir in order to release the braking pressure applied to the wheel cylinder. If the
ABS & BA & TRAC & VSC ECU detects that the fluid pressure in the wheel cylinder is insufficient, the ECU controls the
solenoids in the actuators to increase the braking pressure.
2. Traction Control Operation
The traction control system controls the engine torque, the hydraulic pressure of the driving wheel cylinders, slipping of the
wheels which may occur at start or acceleration of the vehicle, to ensure an optimal driving power and vehicle stability
corresponding to the road conditions.
3. VSC Operation
Unexpected road conditions, vehicle speed, emergency situation, and any other external factors may cause large under- or
over-steering of the vehicle. If this occurs, the VSC system automatically controls the engine power and wheel brakes to
reduce the under- or over-steering.
To reduce large over-steering :
If the VSC system determines that the over-steering is large, it activates the brakes for the outer turning wheels depending
on the degree of the over-steering to produce the moment toward the outside of the vehicle and reduce the over-steering.
To reduce large under-steering :
If the VSC system determines that the under-steering is large, it controls the engine power and activates the rear wheel
brakes to reduce the under-steering.
VSC indicator light
If an error occurs in the VSC system, the VSC indicator lights up to warn the driver.
4. Traction Mode and VSC Function
When the center differential of the transfer is locked, the VSC function is turned off. At this time, the VSC OFF indicator light
in the combination meter will come on, and informs the driver that the VSC function is OFF.
5. Mutual System Control
To efficiently operate the VSC system at its optimal level, the VSC system and other control systems are mutually controlled
while the VSC system is being operated.
Engine throttle control
The engine power does not interfere with the VSC brake control by controlling the opening of the throttle and reducing the
engine output.
Engine control and electronically controlled transmission control
The strong braking force does not interfere with the braking force control of the VSC system by turning off the accel. and
reducing changes in the driving torque at shift-down.
VSC system operation indication
The slip indicator light flashes and the buzzer sounds intermittently to warn the driver that the current road is slippery, while
the VSC system is being operated.
6. Fail Safe Function
If an error occurs in the ABS & BA & TRAC & VSC ECU, sensor signals, and/or actuators, the ABS & BA & TRAC & VSC
ECU inhibits the brake actuator control and inputs the error signal to the engine control module. According to the error signal,
the brake actuator turns off the solenoid and the engine control module rejects any electronically controlled throttle open
request from the VSC system. As a result, the vehicle functions without the ABS, BA, TRAC, and VSC systems.

HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT ECU CONTROLLED SYSTEMS
GENERAL INFORMATION
A large number of ECU controlled systems are used in the LAND CRUISER. In general, the ECU controlled
system is considered to be a very intricate system requiring a high level of technical knowledge and expert
skill to troubleshoot. However, the fact is that if you proceed to inspect the circuits one by one, troubleshoot-
ing of these systems is not complex. If you have adequate understanding of the system and a basic knowl-
edge of electricity, accurate diagnosis and necessary repair can be performed to locate and fix the problem.
This manual is designed through emphasis of the above standpoint to help service technicians perform ac-
curate and effective troubleshooting, and is compiled for the following major ECU controlled systems:
The troubleshooting procedure and how to make use of it are described on the following pages.

FOR USING OBD II SCAN TOOL OR TOYOTA HAND-HELD TESTER

Before using the scan tool or tester, the scan tool's instruction book or tester's operator manual should
be read thoroughly.

If the scan tool or tester cannot communicate with ECU controlled systems when you have connected
the cable of the scan tool or tester to DLC3, turned the ignition switch ON and operated the scan tool,
there is a problem on the vehicle side or tool side.
(1) If communication is normal when the tool is connected to another vehicle, inspect the diagnosis
data link line (Bus
line) or ECU power circuit of the vehicle.
(2) If communication is still not possible when the tool is connected to another vehicle, the problem
is probably in the tool itself, so perform the Self Test procedures outline in the Tester Operator's
Manual.

2. SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION AND DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHECK
The diagnostic system in the LAND CRUISER fulfills various functions. The first function is the Diagnostic
Trouble Code Check in which a malfunction in the signal circuits to the ECU is stored in code in the ECU
memory at the time of occurrence, to be output by the technician during troubleshooting. Another function
is the Input Signal Check which checks if the signals from various switches are sent to the ECU correctly.
By using these check functions, the problem areas can be narrowed down quickly and troubleshooting can
be performed effectively. Diagnostic functions are incorporated in the following systems in the LAND CRUIS-
ER.

Check



In diagnostic trouble code check, it is very important to determine whether the problem indicated by the diag-
nostic trouble code is still occurring or occurred in the past but returned to normal at present. In addition,
it must be checked in the problem symptom check whether the malfunction indicated by the diagnostic
trouble code is directly related to the problem symptom or not. For this reason, the diagnostic trouble codes
should be checked before and after the symptom confirmation to determine the current conditions, as shown
in the table below. If this is not done, it may, depending on the case, result in unnecessary troubleshooting
for normally operating systems, thus making it more difficult to locate the problem, or in repairs not pertinent
to the problem. Therefore, always follow the procedure in correct order and perform the diagnostic trouble
code check.
