CHARGING SYSTEM
ON−VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. CHECK BATTERY ELECTROLYTE LEVEL AND VOLT-
AGE
(a) Check the electrolyte quantity of each cell.
If under the lower level, replace the battery (or add distilled wa-
ter if possible). check the charging system.
(b) Measure the battery voltage between the negative ( −)
and positive (+) terminals of the battery.
Standard voltage: At 20° C (68°F): 12.7 − 12.9 V
HINT:
Before measuring the voltage, turn the ignition switch
OFF and turn off the electrical systems (headlight, blower
motor, rear defogger etc.).
If the vehicle has been running, wait 20 minutes or more
after the vehicle stops before measuring the battery volt-
age.
If the voltage is less than specification, charge the battery.
HINT:
Check the indicator as shown in the illustration.
2. CHECK BATTERY TERMINALS, FUSIBLE LINK AND FUSES
(a) Check that the battery terminals are not loose or cor-
roded.

If the light does not operate as specified, troubleshoot the dis-
charge warning light circuit.
6. INSPECT CHARGING CIRCUIT WITHOUT LOAD
HINT:
If a battery/generator tester is available, connect the tester to
the charging circuit as per the manufacturer’s instructions.
(a) If a tester is not available, connect a voltmeter and amme-
ter to the charging circuit as follows:
Disconnect the wire from terminal B of the generator
and connect it to the negative ( −) lead of the amme-
ter.
Connect the positive (+) lead of the ammeter to ter-
minal B of the generator.
Connect the positive (+) lead of the voltmeter to ter-
minal B of the generator.
Ground the negative ( −) lead of the voltmeter.
(b) Check the charging circuit as follows:
With the engine running from idle to 2,000 rpm, check the
reading on the ammeter and voltmeter.
Standard amperage 10 A or less
Standard voltage:
at 25° C ’(77°F)14.0 − 15.0 V
at 115°C ’(239° F)13.5 − 14.3 V
If the voltmeter reading is more than standard voltage, replace
the voltage regulator.
If the voltmeter reading is less than the standard voltage, check
the voltage regulator and generator as follows:
With terminal F grounded, start the engine and
check the voltmeter reading of terminal B.
If the voltmeter reading is more than standard volt-
age, replace the voltage regulator.
If the voltmeter reading is less than standard volt-
age, check the generator.
7. INSPECT CHARGING CIRCUIT WITH LOAD
(a) With the engine running at 2,000 rpm, turn on the high
beam headlights and place the heater blower switch at
”HI”.

(9) Jack up the front side of the vehicle slowly, as
shown.
HINT:
When measuring the height, measure at the center of the lower
body of the vehicle. (10) Check that the warning light blinks.
If the warning light turns on, inspect the deceleration sensor
installation. If the sensor installation is OK, replace the decel-
eration sensor.
(11) Jack down the vehicle slowly.
(c) Deceleration sensor operation check. (1) Drive the vehicle straight ahead at about 20 km/h
(12.4 mph) or more, lightly depress the brake pedal.
(2) Check that there is no change in the warning light pattern.
(3) Drive the vehicle straight ahead at about 20 km/h (12.4 mph) or more, and depress the brake pedal
moderately.
(4) Check that the warning light turns on while braking.
(5) Drive the vehicle straight ahead at about 20 km/h (12.4 mph) or more, and depress the brake pedal
strongly.
(6) Check that the warning light pattern changes while braking, as shown.
If the operation is not as specified, inspect the deceleration sen-
sor installation. If the sensor installation is OK, replace the de-
celeration sensor. (7) Stop the vehicle and turn the ignition switch OFF.
(8) Remove SST from the terminals Ts and E

3 Does SRS warning light turn off?
PREPARATION:
(a) Turn ignition switch to LOCK.
(b) Connect steering wheel pad connector.
(c) Connect front passenger airbag assembly connector.
(d) Connect airbag sensor assembly connector.
(e) Turn ignition switch ON.
CHECK:
Operate electric system (defogger, wiper, headlight, heater
blower, etc.) and check that SRS warning light goes off.
NO Check DTC, if a DTC is output, perform trouble-
shooting according to DTC, if a normal code is
output, replace airbag sensor assembly.
YES
From the results of the above inspection, the malfunctioning part can now be \
considered normal.
To make sure of this, use the simulation method to check.

Author: Date:
1996 LAND CRUISER (RM451U)
Using SST (A), press down the valve lifter and place
SST (B) between the camshaft and valve lifter
flange. Remove SST (A).
SST 09248−06020, 09248 −55050 (09248−05510)
HINT:
Apply SST (B) at slight angle on the side marked with ”11”,
at the position shown in the illustration.
When SST (B) is inserted too deeply, it will get pinched by
the shim. To prevent it from being stuck, insert it shallowly
from the outside of the cylinder head, at a slight angle.
Remove the adjusting shim with a small screwdriver and
magnetic finger.
(b) Determine the replacement adjusting shim size by follow- ing the Formula or Charts:
Using a micrometer, measure the thickness of the
removed shim.
Calculate the thickness of a new shim so that the
valve clearance comes within specified value.
T ....... Thickness of removed shim
A ....... Measured valve clearance
N ....... Thickness of new shim
Intake: N = T + (A − 0.20 mm (0.008 in.))
Exhaust: N = T + (A − 0.30 mm (0.012 in.))
Select a new shim with a thickness as close as pos-
sible to the calculated value.
HINT:
Shims are available in 17 sized in increments of 0.05 mm
(0.0020 in.), from 2.50 mm (0.0984 in.) to 3.30 mm (0.1299 in.).
(c) Install a new adjusting shim.
Place a new adjusting shim on the valve lifter.
Using SST (A), press down the valve lifter and re-
move SST (B).
SST 09248−06020, 09248 −55050 (09248−05510)
(d) Recheck the valve clearance.

(d) Remove the camshaft timing gear and chain from the in-
take camshaft and leave on the slipper and damper.
35. REMOVE CAMSHAFTS
NOTICE:
Since the thrust clearance of the camshaft is small, the
camshaft must be kept level while it is being removed. If the
camshaft is not kept level, the portion of the cylinder head
receiving the shaft thrust may crack or be damaged, caus-
ing the camshaft to seize or break. To avoid this, the follow-
ing steps should be carried out.
(a) Remove the exhaust camshaft. (1) Bring the service bolt hole of the driven sub −gear
upward by turning the hexagon wrench head por-
tion of the exhaust camshaft with a wrench.
(2) Secure the exhaust camshaft sub −gear to the main
gear with a service bolt.
Recommended service bolt:
Thread diameter6 mm
Thread pitch1.0 mm
Bolt length16 − 20 mm (0.63 − 0.79 in.)
HINT:
When removing the camshaft, make sure that the torsional
spring force of the sub −gear has been eliminated by the above
operation.
(3) Set the timing mark (2 dot marks) of the camshaftdriven gear at approx. 35 ° angle by turning the
hexagon wrench head portion of the intake cam-
shaft with a wrench.
(4) Lightly push the camshaft towards the rear without applying excessive force.
(5) Loosen and remove the No. 1 bearing cap bolts, al-
ternately loosening the left and right bolts uniformly.
