7 Check fuel pressure.
PREPARATION:
(a) Be sure that enough fuel is in the tank.
(b) Turn ignition switch ON.
(c) Connect the TOYOTA hand−held tester to DLC3 on the
vehicle.
(d) Use ACTIVE TEST mode to operate the fuel pump.
(e) If you have no TOYOTA hand−held tester, connect the
positive (+) and negative (−) leads from the battery to the
fuel pump connector (See page SF−5).
CHECK:
Check for fuel pressure in the inlet hose when it is pinched off.
HINT:
At this time, you will hear a fuel flowing noise.
NG Proceed to page SF−5 and continue to trouble-
shoot.
OK
8 Check for spark.
PREPARATION:
(a) Disconnect the high−tension cord from spark plug.
(b) Remove spark plug.
(c) Install spark plug to high−tension cord.
(d) Disconnect injector connector.
(e) Ground the spark plug.
CHECK:
Check if spark occurs while engine is being cranked.
NOTICE:
To prevent excess fuel being injected from the injectors
during this test, do not crank the engine for more than 5 −
10 seconds at a time.
NG Proceed to page IG−1 and continue to trouble-
shoot.
OK
Proceed to matrix chart of problem systems
on page DI−20.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
In the diagram below, when the engine is cranked, current flows from terminal ST of the ignition switch to
the starter relay coil and also current flows to terminal STA of ECM (STA signal).
When the STA signal and NE signal are input to the ECM, Tr is turned ON, current flows to coil of the circuit
opening relay, the relay switches on, power is supplied to the fuel pump and the fuel pump operates.
While the NE signal is generated (engine running), the ECM keeps Tr ON (circuit opening relay ON) and the
fuel pump also keeps operating.
