Diagnosis Inspection (Normal Mode)
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP
CHECK
1. The Malfunction Indicator Lamp will come on when the
ignition switch is turned ON and the engine is not running.
HINT: If the malfunction indicator lamp does not light up, pro-
ceed to troubleshooting of the telltale light RH
(See page BE±48).
2. When the engine is started, the malfunction indicator lamp
should go off.
If the light remains on, the diagnosis system has detected a
malfunction or abnormality in the system.
DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHECK
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Using SST, connect terminals between TE1 and E1 of data
link connector 1 or 2.
SST 09843±18020
3. Read the diagnostic trouble code from malfunction indicator
lamp.
HINT: If a diagnostic trouble code is not output, check the TE1
terminal circuit (See page EG±484).
As an example, the blinking patterns for codes; normal, 12
and 31 are as shown on the illustration.
4. Check the details of the malfunction using the diagnostic
trouble code table on page EG±388.
5. After completing the check, disconnect terminals TE1 and
E1, and turn off the display.
HINT: In the event of 2 or more malfunction codes, indication
will begin from the smaller numbered code and continue in
order to the larger.

Diagnosis Inspection (Test Mode)
Compared to the normal mode, the test mode has an in-
creased sensing ability to detect malfunctions.
It can also detect malfunctions in the starter signal circuit, the
IDL contact signal of the throttle position sensor, air condi-
tioning signal and park/neutral position switch signal.
Furthermore, the same diagnostic items which are detected
in the normal mode can also be detected in the test mode.
DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHECK
1. Initial conditions.
(a) Battery voltage 11 V or more
(b) Throttle valve fully closed
(c) Transmission in neutral position
(d) Air conditioning switched OFF
2. Turn ignition switch OFF
3. Using SST, connect terminals TE2 and E1 of the data link
connector 2.
SST 09843±18020
4. Turn ignition switch ON.
HINT:
wTo confirm that the test mode is operating, check that the
malfunction indicator lamp flashes when the ignition
switch is turned to ON.
wIf the malfunction indicator lamp does not flash, proceed
to troubleshooting of the TE2 terminal circuit on page
EG±484.
5. Start the engine.
6. Simulate the conditions of the malfunction described by the
customer.
7. After the road test, using SST, connect terminals TE1 and E1
of the data link connector 2.
SST 09843±18020
8. Read the diagnostic trouble code on malfunction indicator
lamp on the telltale light RH (See page EG±385).
9. After completing the check, disconnect terminals TE1, TE2
and E1, and turn off the display.
HINT:
wThe test mode will not start if terminals TE2 and E1 are
connected after the ignition switch is turned ON.
wWhen the engine is not cranked, diagnostic trouble
codes º43º (Starter signal) output, but this is not
abnormal.
wWhen the automatic transmission shift lever is in the ºDº,
º2º, ºLº or ºRº shift position, or when the air conditioning
is on or when the accelerator pedal is depressed, code
º51º (Switch condition signal) is output, but this is not
abnormal. EG±386

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHECK
USING TOYOTA HAND±HELD TESTER
1. Hook up the TOYOTA hand±held tester to the DLC2.
2. Read the diagnostic trouble codes by following the prompts
on the tester screen.
Please refer to the TOYOTA hand±held tester operation's
manual for further details.
DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CLEARANCE
1. After repair of the trouble areas, the diagnostic trouble code
retained in the ECM memory must be cleared out by
removing the EFI No.1 fuse (30A) from R/B No.2 for 10
seconds or more, with the ignition switch OFF.
HINT:
wCancellation can also be done by removing the negative
(±) terminal cable from the battery, but in this case, other
memory systems (clock, etc.) will also be cancelled out.
wIf it is necessary to work on engine components
requiring removal of the negative (±) terminal cable from
the battery, a check must first be made to see if a
diagnostic trouble code has been recorded.
2. After cancellation, road test the vehicle to check that a normal
code is now read on the malfunction indicator lamp.
If the same diagnostic trouble code appears, it indicates that
the trouble area has not been repaired thoroughly.
ECM DATA MONITOR USING TOYOTA
HAND±HELD TESTER
1. Hook up the TOYOTA hand±held tester to the DLC2.
2. Monitor the ECM data by following the prompts on the tester
screen.
HINT: TOYOTA hand±held tester has a ºSnapshotº function which
records the monitored data.
Please refer to TOYOTA hand±held tester operator's manual for
further details.
ECM TERMINAL VALUES MEASUREMENT
USING TOYOTA BREAK±OUT±BOX AND
TOYOTA HAND±HELD TESTER
1. Hook up the TOYOTA break±out±box and TOYOTA
handheld tester to the vehicle.
2. Read the ECM input/output values by following the prompts
on the tester screen.
HINT: TOYOTA hand±held tester has a ºSnapshotº function. This
records the measured values and is effective in the diagnosis of
intermittent problems.
Please refer to TOYOTA hand±held tester/TOYOTA break±out
box operator's manual for further details.

Back±Up Function
If there is trouble with the program in the ECM and the ignition signals (IGT) are not output from the microcomput-
er, the ECM controls fuel injection and ignition timing at predetermined levels as a back±up function to make
it possible to continue to operate the vehicle.
Furthermore, the injection duration is calculated from the starting signal (STA) and the throttle position signal
(IDL). Also, the ignition timing is fixed at the initial ignition timing, 10°BTDC, without relation to the engine speed.
HINT: if the engine is controlled by the back±up function, the malfunction indicator lamp lights up to warn the
driver of the malfunction but the diagnostic trouble code is not output. EG±398
