READINESS MONITOR DRIVE PATTERNS ± EG003-02 RevisedMarch 29, 2002
Page 17 of 23
Drive Pattern Preconditions
The monitor will not run unless:

MIL is OFF.

Fuel level is between 1/2 to 3/4 full (for faster completion)
.

Altitude is 7800 feet (2400 m) or less.*

ECT (Coolant Temp) is between 40F and 95F (4.4C ± 35C).

IAT (Intake Air) is between 40F and 95F (4.4C ± 35C).*

Cold Soak Procedure has been completed.
* For 2002 MY and later vehicles: The readiness test can be completed in cold ambient conditions
(less than 40F / 4.4C) and/or at high altitudes (more than 7800 feet / 2400 m) if the complete drive
pattern (including Cold Soak) is repeated a second time after cycling the ignition OFF.
NOTE:
Before starting the engine, the difference between ECT (Coolant Temp) and IAT (Intake
Air) must be less than 13F (7C). (Refer to Examples 1 and 2 on previous page.)
Drive Pattern Procedure

Connect the OBDII Scantool to DLC3 to check monitor status and preconditions.

Release the pressure in the fuel tank by removing and then reinstalling the fuel tank
cap.
2a. Start the engine and allow it to idle until ECT (Coolant Temp) is 167F (75C) or
greater. (See illustration on previous page.)
2b. Race the engine at 3,000 rpm for approximately 10 seconds. (See illustration on
previous page.)
2c. Allow the engine to idle with the A/C ON (to create a slight load) for 15 ± 50
minutes. (See illustration on previous page.)
NOTE:
If the vehicle is not equipped with A/C put a slight load on the engine by doing the
following:

Securely set the parking brake.

Block the drive wheels with wheel chocks.

Allow the vehicle to idle in drive for 15 ± 50 minutes.
NOTE:
The readiness status may not switch to ªcompleteº after the first drive pattern trip if a
Pending Code has been set (first trip for a two±trip DTC).

Pending Codes are available from the DTC Info Menu in Enhanced OBDII.

Pending Codes indicate a POTENTIAL problem was detected. A second trip is
needed to confirm the DTC prior to diagnosis.

Once a second trip is completed, a current DTC will be stored. Readiness

SULFUR ODOR FROM EXHAUST
Models:
All Models
Technical Service
BULLETIN
February 24, 2003

Some owners of Toyota vehicles may experience a sulfur±like or ªrotten eggº odor from
the exhaust system. Sulfur is a natural component of crude oil from which gasoline is
refined and the amount of sulfur can be decreased through the refining process. The
amount of sulfur in fuel sold in California is regulated, however gasoline sold in other
states can have substantially higher sulfur content. Sulfur content also varies
considerably between gasoline brands and locations.
All Models.
A sulfur odor emitted from the vehicle's tailpipe does not necessarily indicate that there is
an issue with the engine's running condition, but is most likely directly related to the fuel.
If the vehicle is exhibiting an excessive sulfur odor, the following checks should be
performed:
If the MIL light is ON, check for DTCs and repair as necessary.
If no trouble is found after performing the above check, recommend the customer try a
different source of fuel.
Replacement of oxygen sensors, air/fuel ratio sensors or catalytic converters will not
reduce the odor and will therefore not
be considered warrantable.

BULLETIN

When receiving customer complaints to repair the lighter or lighter socket, please
carefully investigate the cause of the failure to prevent further occurrences. If the
customer uses the wrong size lighter element or power accessory plug, damage may
occur to the lighter socket. When applicable, instruct the customer to replace the lighter
element with original equipment components or to use an appropriate sized accessory
plug. Dimensional information included within this document will instruct you on
component specifications.
1. Determine if the lighter is original equipment by using the specifications shown.
a. If the vehicle has a non±genuine lighter element, it has the possibility to cause
a short circuit between the lighter element and the lighter socket, which can
result in an open fuse.
b. A non±genuine lighter element may cause a rattle or bend the socket bimetal
contacts.
c. If a non±genuine lighter element is being used, advise the customer to use an
original equipment element.

2. If the lighter element is original
equipment and the lighter socket is
bent or pulled out of the dash, please
ask the customer about the accessory
plug being used in the lighter socket.
a. The attached specifications in
the drawing provide the
maximum recommended size
of accessory plug. If the
customer is using an
accessory plug larger than
recommended, please advise
the customer to use a plug of
appropriate size.
b. Using a power plug larger
than the given dimensions
may damage the lighter
socket.
c. If the vehicle has a power
point socket, advise the
customer to use this socket
instead of the lighter socket.

Some customers may request to have the Daytime Running Lights (DRL) on their Toyota
vehicle disabled. These customers may live or work in military bases or in communities
that have light±sensitive gates or guardhouses. This bulletin provides instructions for
disabling the feature on the Toyota vehicles listed below. If the Daytime Running Lights
(DRL) have been previously disabled, the information in this bulletin can be used to
enable the feature at the request of the customer.
IMPORTANT:
Please be sure the customer is informed that when the Daytime Running Lights (DRL)
are being disabled, although it is not required by the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards for safety compliance, it has been listed as a safety feature in advertising
brochures. In addition, on models equipped with the Twilight Sentinel feature, the
headlights will be defaulted to a manual system and will no longer function
automatically.
All Models equipped with Daytime Running Lights (DRL) (see chart below).
