1991 LEXUS SC300 check engine light

(f) Check the fluid level at the normal operating temperature70±80
C (158±176
F) and add as necessary.
NOTICE: Do not overfill.
4. CHECK FLUID LEAKS
Check for leaks in the transmission.
If there are leaks, it is necessary to repair or replace O±rings,
seal packings, oil seals, plugs or other parts.
5. INSPECT AND ADJUST THROTTLE CABLE
(a) Remove the 2 bolts, nut and throttle body cover.
(b) Check that the throttle valve is fully closed.
(c) Check that the inner cable is not slack.
(d) Measure the distance between the outer cable end and stopper on the cable.
Standard distance:
0±1 mm (0±0.04 in.)
If the distance is not standard, adjust the cable by the adjust-
ing nuts.
(e) Install the throttle body cover, and two bolts and nut.
6. INSPECT AND ADJUST SHIFT LEVER POSITION When shifting the shift lever from the N position to other posi-
tions, check that the lever can be shifted smoothly and accu-
rately to each position and that the position indicator correctly
indicates the position.
If the indicator is not aligned with the correct position, carry
out the following adjustment procedures:
(a) Loosen the nut on the control shaft lever.
(b) Push the control shaft lever fully rearward.
(c) Return the control shaft lever 2 notches to N position.
(d) Set the shift lever to N position.
(e) While holding the shift lever lightly toward the R position side,
tighten the shift lever nut.
(f) Start the engine and make sure that the vehicle moves forward when shifting the lever from the N to D position and
reverses when shifting it to the R position.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1Check operation of stop light.
Check if the stop lights go on and off normally when the brake pedal is operated and released.C
Check and repair stop light circuit (See BE section).
2Check stop light signal.
C
OK
1. Connect voltmeter to the terminals TT and E1 of the
DLC2.
2. Turn ignition switch ON (Do not start the engine).
3. Fully depress the accelerator pedal until the volt- meter indicates 8 V and hold it.
4. Depress and release the brake pedal and check the
voltage.
Proceed to next circuit inspection shown on matrix chart
(See page AT±66).
3Check harness and connector between ECM and stop light switch (See page\
IN±33).
Repair or replace harness or connector.
Check and replace ECM.

2. INSPECT BRAKE WARNING LIGHT(a) Disconnect the connector from the brake fluid warningswitch.
(b) Release the parking brake pedal.
(c) Connect terminals on the wire harness side of the level warning switch connector.
(d) Start the engine, check that the warning light lights up.
If the warning light does not light up, test the bulb or wire har-
ness.
(Parking Brake Switch)
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF PARKING
BRAKE SWITCH
1. REMOVE PARKING BRAKE SWITCH
(a) Remove the driver's seat.
(See page BO±58)
(b) Disconnect the connector and remove switch.
2. INSTALL PARKING BRAKE SWITCH For installation follow the removal procedure in reverse.
INSPECTION OF PARKING BRAKE SWITCH
1. INSPECT PARKING BRAKE SWITCH
(a) Check that there is continuity between terminal andswitch body with the switch ON (switch pin released).
(b) Check that there is no continuity between terminal and switch body with the switch OFF (switch pin pushed in.)
If continuity is not as specified, replace the switch or inspect
ground point.
2. INSPECT BRAKE WARNING LIGHT (a) Disconnect the connector from the parking brake switchand brake fluid warning switch.
(b) Ground terminal on the wire harness side connector.
(c) Start the engine, check that the warning light lights up.
If the warning light does not light up, test the bulb or inspect
wire harness.

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF COOLANT
LEVEL WARNING SWITCH
1. REMOVE COOLANT LEVEL WARNING SWITCH(a) Disconnect the connector.
(b) Remove the boot.
(c) Using the notches in the head of switch, turn the switchcounterclockwise and remove it.
NOTICE: Do not remove when engine is hot.
2. INSTALL COOLANT LEVEL WARNING SWITCH For installation, follow the removal procedure in reverse.
INSPECTION OF COOLANT LEVEL WARNING
SWITCH
1. INSPECT COOLANT LEVEL WARNING SWITCH(Continuity)
(a) Remove the radiator cap and open the radiator drainclock.
NOTICE: Do not remove when engine is hot.
(b) Drain the coolant about 1 liter. (1.1 US qts, 0.9 lmp. qts)
(c) Check that there is continuity between terminals (float down).
(d) Close radiator drain cock and fill the cooling system with
coolant.
(e) Check that there is no continuity between terminals (float up).
If continuity is not as specified, replace the switch.
2. INSPECT COOLANT LEVEL WARNING LIGHT (a) Disconnect the connector from the coolant level warning
switch and ground terminal 1 on the wire harness side
connector.
(b) Start the engine, check that the warning light lights up.
If the warning light does not light up, inspect the bulb or wire
harness.
