SRS AIRBAG
PRECAUTION
The LAND CRUISER is equipped with an SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) such as the driver airbag
and front passenger airbag. Failure to carry out service operation in th\
e correct sequence could cause the
SRS to unexpectedly deploy during servicing, possibly leading to a serious accident. Before servicing (in\
-
cluding removal or installation of parts, inspection or replacement), be sure t\
o read the precautionary notices
in the RS section.

HINT:
If your display shows ”UNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLE”
when you have connected the cable of the OBD II scan tool or
TOYOTA hand−held tester to DLC3, turned the ignition switch
ON and operated the scan tool, there is a problem on the ve-
hicle side or tool side.
If communication is normal when the tool is connected to
another vehicle, inspect DLC3 on the original vehicle.
If communication is still not possible when the tool is con-
nected to another vehicle, the problem is probably in the
tool itself, so consult the Service Department listed in the
tool’s instruction manual.
2. INSPECT DIAGNOSIS (NORMAL MODE)
(a) Check the MIL. (1) The MIL comes on when the ignition switch is turnedON and the engine is not running.
HINT:
If the MIL does not light up, troubleshoot the combination meter
(See page BE−2 ).
(2) When the engine started, the MIL should go off. If the lamp remains on, the diagnosis system has de-
tected a malfunction or abnormality in the system
(b) Check the DTC.
NOTICE:
TOYOTA hand−held tester only: When the diagnosis sys-
tem is switched from normal mode to check mode, it
erases all DTCs and freezed frame data recorded in normal
mode. So before switching modes, always check the DTCs
and freezed frame data, and note them down (1) Prepare the OBD II scan tool (complying with SAE
J 1978) or TOYOTA hand−held tester.
(2) Connect the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand− held tester to DLC3 in the fuse box at the lower left
of the instrument panel.
(3) Turn the ignition switch ON and switch the OBD II
scan tool or TOYOTA hand −held tester switch ON.
(4) Use the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand−held tester to check the DTC and freezed frame data,
note them down. (For operating instructions, see
the OBD II scan tool’s instruction book.)
(5) See page DI−13 to confirm the details of the
DTCs.

DIAGNOSTICS AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

1996 LAND CRUISER (RM451U)
HINT:
If your display shows ”UNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLE”
when you have connected the cable of the OBD II scan tool or
TOYOTA hand−held tester to the DLC3, turned the ignition
switch ON and operated the scan tool, there is a problem on the
vehicle side or tool side.
If communication is normal when the tool is connected to
another vehicle, inspect the DLC3 on the original vehicle.
If communication is still not possible when the tool is con-
nected to another vehicle, the problem is probably in the
tool itself, so consult the Service Department listed in the
tool’s instruction manual.
4. CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS
TOYOTA hand−held tester only:
By putting the vehicle’s ECM in the check mode, 1 trip detection logic is possible instead of 2\
trip detection
logic and sensitivity to detect open circuits is increased. This makes it easier t\
o detect intermittent problems.
(1) Clear the DTC (See step 3).
(2) Set the check mode (See step 3).
(3) Do a simulation test (See page IN−18).
(4) Check the cnnector connection and terminal (See page IN−28).
(5) Visual check and contact pressure (See page IN−28).
(6) Handle the connector (See page IN−28).
5. ROAD TEST
NOTICE:
Perform the test at normal operating ATF temperature 50 − 80°C (122 − 176° F).
(a) D position test in NORM and PWR pattern positions. Shift into the D position and hold the accelerator pedal constant at the full\
throttle valve opening posi-
tion and check the following:
HINT:
When the 2nd start switch in on, there is no 1 → 2 up−shift and 2 →1 down−shift.
(1) 1 →2, 2 → 3 and 3 → O/D up−shift takes place, and shift point should conform to those shown
in the automatic shift schedule. Conduct a test under both Normal and Powe\
r patterns.
HINT:
There is no O/D up−shift or lock−up when the coolant temperature is below 55 °C (131°F ).
Evaluation:
If there is no 1 → 2 up−shift:
Shift solenoid valve No. 2 is stuck.
1−2 shift valve is stuck.
If there is no 2 → 3 up−shift:
Shift solenoid valve No. 1 is stuck.
2−3 shift valve is stuck.
If there is no 3 → O/D up−shift:
3−4 shift valve is stuck.
If the shift point is defective:
Throttle valve, 1−2 shift valve, 2−3 shift valve, 3−4 shift valve etc., are defective.
