INSPECT SWITCH ILLUMINATION
Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 7 and
the negative (−) lead to terminal 1 check that all the illuminations
light up.
If operation is not as specified, replace the master switch.
5. 3 Door models:
INSPECT ONE TOUCH POWER WINDOW SYSTEM
(a) Using an ammeter, inspect the system.
(1) Disconnect the connector from the master switch.
(2) Connect the positive (+) lead from the ammeter to
terminal 3 on the wire harness side connector and
the negative (−) lead to the negative (−) terminal of
the battery.
(3) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to ter-
minal 4 on the wire harness side connector.
(4) As the window goes down, check that the current
flow is approximately 7 amperes.
(5) Check that the current increases up to approxi-
mately 14.5 amperes or more when the window
stops going down.
HINT:
The circuit breaker opens some 4 − 40 seconds after the win-
dow stops going down, so that check must be made before the
circuit breaker operates.
If the operation is not as specified, replace the master switch.
(b) Using an ammeter with a current measurement probe, in-
spect the system.
(1) Remove the master switch with connector con-
nected.
(2) Attach a current−measuring probe to terminal 3 of
the wire harness.
(3) Turn the ignition switch ON and set the power win-
dow switch in the down position.

ANTI-RUST TREATMENT AFTER PAINTING PROCESS
1. ANTI-RUST AGENT (WAX) APPLICATION
To preserve impossible to paint areas from corrosion,
always apply sufficient anti-rust agent (wax) to the inside
of the hemming areas of the doors and hoods, and
around the hinges, or the welded surfaces inside the
boxed cross-section structure of the side member, body
pillar, etc.
ANTI-RUST AGENT (WAX) APPLICATION
REFERENCE: ANTI-RUST TREATMENT BY PAINTING
Painting prevents corrosion and protects the sheet metal from damage. In this section, anti-chipping paint
only for anti-corrosion purpose is described.
1. ANTI-CHIPPING PAINT
To prevent corrosion and protect the body from damage by flying stones, etc., apply anti-chipping paint
to the rocker panel, wheel arch areas, valance panel, etc.
HINT:
Depending on the model or the application area, there are cases where the application of anti-chipping
paint is necessary before the second coat or after the top coat.

Apply the anti-chipping paint
before the second coat.
Apply the anti-chipping paint
after the top coat.

1. DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
(a) Description
When troubleshooting OBDII vehicles, the only dif-
ference from the usual troubleshooting procedure
is that you connect to the vehicle the OBDII scan
tool complying with SAE J1978 or TOYOTA hand−
held tester, and read off various data output from
the vehicle’s ECM.
OBDII regulations require that the vehicle’s on−
board computer lights up the Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) on the instrument panel when the com-
puter detects a malfunction in the computer itself on
in drive system components which affect vehicle
emissions. In addition to the MIL lighting up when
a malfunction is detected, the applicable Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) prescribed by SAE J2012 are
recorded in the ECM memory (See page DI−14).
If the malfunction does not recur in 3 trips, the MIL
goes off but the DTC remain recorded in the ECM
memory.
To check the DTC, connect the OBDII scan tool or
TOYOTA hand−held tester to Data Link Connector
3 (DLC3) on the vehicle. The OBDII scan tool or
TOYOTA hand−held tester also enables you to
erase the DTC and check freezed frame data and
various forms of engine data. (For operating instruc-
tions, see the OBDII scan tool’s instruction book.)
DTC include SAE controlled codes and Manufac-
ture controlled codes.
SAE controlled codes must be set as prescribed by
the SAE, while Manufacturer controlled codes can
be set freely by the manufacturer within the pre-
scribed limits (See DTC chart on page DI−14).
The diagnosis system operates in normal mode
during normal vehicle use. It also has a check mode
for technicians to simulate malfunction symptoms
and troubleshoot. Most DTC use 2 trip detection
logic* to prevent erroneous detection and ensure
thorough malfunction detection.
