YES
2 Is engine cranked ?
NO Proceed to ST-13, ST-28, ST-31 and continue
to troubleshoot.
YES
3 Does engine start ?
NO Go to step 7.
YES
4 Check air filter.
PREPARATION:
Remove the air filter.
CHECK:
Visual check that the air cleaner element is not excessively dirty
or oily.
HINT:
If necessary, clean the filter with compressed air. First blow from
inside thoroughly, then blow from outside of filter.
NG Repair or replace.
OK
5 Check engine idle speed.
PREPARATION:
(a) Warm up engine to normal operating temperature.
(b) Switch off all accessories.
(c) Switch off air conditioning.
(d) Shift transmission into ºNº position.

7 Check fuel pressure.
PREPARATION:
(a) Be sure that enough fuel is in the tank.
(b) Turn ignition switch ON.
(c) Remove the fuse cover on the instrument panel.
(d) Connect the TOYOTA hand-held tester to DLC3 on the
vehicle.
(e) Use ACTIVE TEST mode to operate the fuel pump.
(f) If you have no TOYOTA hand-held tester, connect the
positive (+) and negative (-) leads from the battery to the
fuel pump connector (See page MF-1).
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 MF-1 and continue to trouble-
shoot.
OK
8 Check for spark.
PREPARATION:
(a) Disconnect the high-tension cord from spark plug or re-
move the ignition coil.
(b) Remove spark plug.
(c) Install the spark plug to high-tension cord or ignition coil.
(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.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Check spark plug and spark of misfiring cylinder.
PREPARATION:
(a) Disconnect the high-tension cord or ignition coil.
(b) Remove the spark plug.
CHECK:
(a) Check plug type.
(b) Check for carbon deposits on electrode.
(c) Check electrode gap.
OK:
(1) Twin ground electrodes type.
Recommended spark plug:
ND: K16TR11
NGK: BKR5EKB-11
(2) No large carbon deposit present.
Not wet with gasoline or oil.
(3) Electrode gap: 1.0 - 1.1 mm (0.039 - 0.043 in.)
PREPARATION:
(a) Install the spark plug to the high-tension cord or ignition
coil.
(b) Disconnect the injector connector.
(c) Ground the spark plug.
CHECK:
Check if spark occurs while engine is being cracked.
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.
OK:
Spark jumps across electrode gap.
NG Replace or check ignition system (See page
IG-1).

DTC P0335 Crankshaft Position Sensor ºAº Circuit
Malfunction
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 of 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 No.DTC Detection ConditionTrouble Area

DTC P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit
Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Camshaft position sensor (G signal) consist of signal plate and pickup coil.
The G signal plate has one tooth on its outer circumference and is mounted on the exhaust camshaft.
When the camshafts rotate, the protrusion on the signal plate and the air gap on the pickup coil change,
causing 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 signals
and the actual crankshaft angle and the engine speed by the NE signals.
