DTC P0325 Knock Sensor 1 Circuit Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
A knock sensor is fitted to the cylinder block to detect engine knocking. This sensor contains a piezoelectric
element which generates a voltage when it becomes deformed, which occurs when the cylinder block vi-
brates due to knocking. If engine knocking occurs, ignition timing is retarded to suppress it.
DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
P0325No knock sensor 1 signal to ECM with engine speed 1,200 rpm
or more (2 trip detection logic)Open or short in knock sensor 1 circuit
Knock sensor 1 (looseness)
ECM
If the ECM detects the above diagnosis conditions, it operates the fail safe function in which the corrective
retard angle value is set to the maximum value.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Crankshaft position sensor (NE signal) consists of a signal plate and pickup coil.
The NE signal plate has 34 teeth and is mounted on the crankshaft. The NE signal sensor generates 34
signals for every engine revolution. The ECM detects the standard crankshaft angle based on the G signals,
and the actual crankshaft angle and the engine speed by the NE signals.

DTC P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit
Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Camshaft position sensor (G signal) consist of a signal plate an pickup coil.
The G signal plate has one tooth on its outer circumference and is built into the distributor.
When the camshaft rotate, the protrusion on the signal plate and the air gap on the pickup coil change, caus-
ing fluctuations in the magnetic field and generating an electromotive force in the pickup coil.
The NE signal plate has 34 teeth and is mounted on the crankshaft. The NE signal sensor generates 34
signals for every engine revolution. The ECM detects the standard crankshaft angle based on the G signal
and the actual crankshaft angle and the engine speed by the NE signals.

DTC P0401 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Flow Insufficient
Detected
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The EGR system recirculates exhaust gas, which is controlled to the proper quantity to suit the driving condi-
tions, into the intake air mixture to slow down combustion, reduce the combustion temperature and reduce
NOx emissions. The amount of EGR is regulated by the EGR vacuum modulator according to the engine
load.
If even one the following conditions is fulfilled, the VSV is turned
ON by a signal from ECM. This results in atmospheric air acting
on the EGR valve, closing the EGR valve and shutting off the
exhaust gas (EGR cut−off).
Before the engine is warmed up
During deceleration (throttle valve closed) .
Light engine load (amount of intake air very small).
Engine idling.
Engine speed over 4,400 rpm.
High engine load (amount of intake air very large)

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
If DTC ”P0105” and / or ”P0106” and ”P0402” are output simultaneously, perform troubleshooting of
DTC ”P0105” first.
If DTC ”P0401” and ”P0402” are output simultaneously, perform troubleshooting of DTC ”P0402” first.
1 Check the connection of the vacuum hose, EGR hose (See page EC−5).
NG Repair or replace.
OK
2 Check EGR valve (See page EC−8).
NG Repair or replace.
OK
3 Check the VSV for EGR * .
* If you have TOYOTA hand−held tester, see page DI−65, step 2.
If you have no TOYOTA hand−held tester, see page DI−65, step 2.
OK Go to step 5.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
If DTC P0441, P0446 or P0450 is output after DTC P0440, first troubleshoot DTC P0441, P0446 or
P0450. If no malfunction is detected, troubleshoot DTC P0440 next.
Ask the customer whether, after the MIL came on, the customer found the fuel tank cap loose and tight-
ened it. Also ask the customer whether the fuel tank cap was loose when refuelling.
If the fuel tank cap was loose, it was the cause of the DTC. If the fuel tank cap was not loose or if the
customer was not sure if it was loose, troubleshoot according to the following procedure.
