ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. CHECK FUEL PUMP OPERATION
(a) Remove the fuse cover on the instrument panel.
(b) Connect the TOYOTA hand-held tester to the DLC3.
(c) Turn the ignition switch ON and TOYOTA hand-held tes-
ter main switch ON.
NOTICE:
Do not start the engine.
(d) Select the active test mode on the TOYOTA hand-held
tester.
(e) Please refer to the TOYOTA hand-held tester operator's
manual for further details.
If you have no TOYOTA hand-held tester, connect the positive
(+) and negative (-) leads from the battery to the fuel pump con-
nector (See step 6).
(f) Check that there is pressure in the fuel inlet hose from the
fuel filter.
HINT:
If there is fuel pressure, you will hear the sound of fuel flowing.
If there is no pressure, check the fusible link, H-fuse, fuses, EFI
main relay, circuit opening relay, fuel pump, ECM and wiring
connections.
2. CHECK FUEL PRESSURE
(a) Check the battery positive voltage is above 11 V.
(b) Disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the bat-
tery.
(c) Remove the union bolt and 2 gaskets, and disconnect the
fuel inlet hose from the fuel filter outlet.
CAUTION:
Put a shop towel under the fuel filter.Slowly loosen the
union bolt.
