HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT ECU CONTROLLED SYSTEMS
GENERAL INFORMATION
A large number of ECU controlled systems are used in the TOYOTA SUPRA. In general, the ECU controlled
system is considered to be a very intricate system requiring a high level of technical knowledge and expert
skill to troubleshoot. However, the fact is that if you proceed to inspect the circuits one by one, troubleshoot-
ing of these systems is not complex. If you have adequate understanding of the system and a basic knowl-
edge of electricity, accurate diagnosis and necessary repair can be performed to locate and fix the problem.
This manual is designed through emphasis of the above standpoint to help service technicians perform ac-
curate and effective troubleshooting, and is compiled for the following major ECU controlled systems:

2. Engine (2JZ-GTE)DI-145
3. Automatic Transmission (2JZ-GE)DI-316
4. Automatic Transmission (2JZ-GTE)DI-371
5. Anti-Lock Brake SystemDI-440

7. Supplemental Restraint SystemDI-555
8. Theft Deterrent SystemDI-608

11. Air Conditioning SystemDI-71 1
The troubleshooting procedure and how to make use of it are described on the above pages.
FOR USING OBDII SCAN TOOL OR TOYOTA HAND-HELD TESTER

Before using the OBDII scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held tester, the OBDII scan tool's instruction book
or TOYOTA hand-held tester's operator manual should be read thoroughly.

If the OBDII scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held tester cannot communicate with ECU controlled systems
when you have connected the cable of the OBDII scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held tester to DLC3,
turned the ignition switch ON and operated the scan tool, there is a problem on the vehicle side or tool
side.
(1) If communication is normal when the tool is connected to another vehicle, inspect the diagnosis
data link line (Bus
line) or ECU power circuit of the vehicle.
(2) If communication is still not possible when the tool is connected to another vehicle, the problem
is probably in the tool itself, so perform the Self Test procedures outlined in the Tester Operator's
Manual.

2. SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION AND DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHECK
The diagnostic system in the TOYOTA SUPRA fulfills various functions. The first function is the Diagnostic
Trouble Code Check in which a malfunction in the signal circuits to the ECU is stored in code in the ECU
memory at the time of occurrence, to be output by the technician during troubleshooting. Another function
is the Input Signal Check which checks if the signals from various switches are sent to the ECU correctly.
By using these check functions, the problem areas can be narrowed down quickly and troubleshooting can
be performed effectively. Diagnostic functions are incorporated in the following systems in the TOYOTA SU-
PRA.

In diagnostic trouble code check, it is very important to determine whether the problem indicated by the diag-
nostic trouble code is still occurring or occurred in the past but returned to normal at present. In addition,
it must be checked in the problem symptom check whether the malfunction indicated by the diagnostic
trouble code is directly related to the problem symptom or not. For this reason, the diagnostic trouble codes
should be checked before and after the symptom confirmation to determine the current conditions, as shown
in the table below. If this is not done, it may, depending on the case, result in unnecessary troubleshooting
for normally operating systems, thus making it more difficult to locate the problem, or in repairs not pertinent
to the problem. Therefore, always follow the procedure in correct order and perform the diagnostic trouble
code check.

 DIFFERENTIAL
1. General
A differential gear ratio has been changed on the 2JZ±GE engine model.
A Helical gear type torque±sensing LSD (Limited Slip Differential) is available as an option on the SJZ±GE engine
model and 2JZ±GTE engine with automatic transmission model.
As in the '96 model, a worm gear type torque±sensing LSD is used on the model with the SJZ±GTE engine and
manual transmission.

Characteristics
Good traction of high bias ratio design is obtained through the utilization of two types of friction: One is the friction
that is generated between the planet gear's tooth tips and the differential case's inner wall. The other is the friction
that is generated between the side gear end face and the thrust washer.
Quick response and minimum time lag until differential limiting force is generated.
The bias ratio sustains minimal changes due to aging and maintains a stable performance.
A simple, compact, and lightweight differential configuration has been achieved through the use of the helical gear.
Ordinary differential oil must be used; do not use special LSD oil.
