HEAT METHOD: When the problem seems to occur when the suspect area is heated. 2
NOTICE:
(1) Do not heat to more than 60 °C (140 °F). (Temperature
is limited not to damage the components.)
(2) Do not apply heat directly to parts in the ECU.
3 WATER SPRINKLING METHOD:
NOTICE:
(1) Never sprinkle water directly into the engine
compartment, but indirectly change the temperature and
humidity by applying water spray onto the radiator front
surface.
(2) Never apply water directly onto the electronic
components.
4 OTHER: When a malfunction seems to occur when electrical load is excessive.When the malfunction seems to occur on a rainy day or in a
high-humidity condition. Heat the component that is the likely cause of the malfunction
with a hair dryer or similar object. Check to see if the malfunction
occurs.
Sprinkle water onto the vehicle and check to see if the malfunc-
tion occurs.
Turn on all electrical loads including the heater blower, head
lights, rear window defogger, etc. and check to see if the mal-
function occurs.ON (Service hint)
If a vehicle is subject to water leakage, the leaked water may
contaminate the ECU. When testing a vehicle with a water leak-
age problem, special caution must be taken.

5. PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
The suspect circuits or parts for each problem symptom are shown in the table below. Use this table to trou-
bleshooting the problem when a ºNormalº code is displayed in the diagnostic trouble code check but the
problem is still occurring. Numbers in the table indicate the inspection order in which the circuits or parts
should be checked.
HINT:
When the problem is not detected by the diagnostic system even though the problem symptom is present,
it is considered that the problem is occurring outside the detection range of the diagnostic system, or that
the problem is occurring in a system other than the diagnostic system.

3) ABS ECU
a. Wheel Speed Control
The ECU constantly receives signals form the 4±speed sensors and a deceleration sensor (2JZ±GTE engine model),
and estimates the speed and deceleration rate of the vehicle by calculating the speed and deceleration rate of each
wheel.
b. Initial Check
An initial check is carried out every time once after the engine has started and the initial vehicle speed exceeds 6 km/h
(4 mph).
c. Self±Diagnosis
If the ABS ECU detects a malfunction in the ABS, the ABS warning light and a master warning lights in the
combination meter will light up and alert the driver that a malfunction has occurred. The ECU will also store the codes
of the malfunctions.
SUSPENSION
1. General
The shock absorber of the 2JZ±GTE engine model with manual transmission has been changed from the
mono±tube, gas±filled shock absorber to the twin±tube, gas±filled shock absorber, which is the same type that is
used on the 2JZ±GE engine model.
The same rubber±integrated ball bushing that is used on the 2JZ±GTE engine model is used for the upper arm
bushing of the rear suspension of the 2JZ±GE engine model.
The brace rod of the rear subframe has been relocated to realize excellent riding comfort, in addition, this provides
excellent stability, an controllability.
