CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Misfire: The ECM uses the crankshaft position sensor and camshaft position sensor to monitor changes in
the crankshaft rotation for each cylinder.
The ECM counts the number of times the engine speed change rate indicates that misfire has occurred.
When the misfire rate equals or exceeds the count indicating that the engine condition has deteriorated, the
MIL lights up.
If the misfire rate is high enough and the driving conditions will cause catalyst overheating, the MIL blinks
when misfiring occurs.

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 for every engine revolution. The ECM detects the standard crankshaft angle based on the G22 sig-
nals, and the actual crankshaft angle and the engine speed by the NE signals.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:

Perform troubleshooting of DTC P0335 first. If no trouble is found, troubleshoot the following mechani-
cal systems.

Read freeze frame data using TOYOTA hand±held tester or OBD II scan tool. because freeze frame
records the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected, when troubleshooting it is useful for
determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine warmed up or not, the air±fuel
ratio lean or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction.

DTC P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit
Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Camshaft position sensor (G22 signal) consist of a signal plate and pickup coil.
The G22 signal plate has one tooth, on its outer circumference and is mounted on the left bank camshafts.
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 G22 signal
and the actual crankshaft angle and the engine speed by the NE signals.

DTC P1300 Igniter Circuit Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
A DIS (Direct Ignition System) has been adopted. The DIS improves the ignition timing accuracy, reduces
high±voltage loss, and enhances the overall reliability of the ignition system by eliminating the distributor.
The DIS is a 2±cylinder simultaneous ignition system which ignites 2 cylinders simultaneously with one igni-
tion coil. In the 2±cylinder simultaneous ignition system, each of the 2 spark plugs is connected to the end
of the secondary winding. High voltage generated in the secondary winding is applied directly to the spark
plugs. The sparks of the 2 spark plugs pass simultaneously from the center electrode to the ground elec-
trode.
The ECM determines ignition timing and outputs the ignition signals (IGT) for each cylinder. Based on IGT
signals, the igniter controls the primary ignition signals (IGC) for all ignition coils. At the same time, the igniter
also sends an ignition confirmation signal (IGF) as a fail±safe measure to the ECM.

VALVE CLEARANCE
INSPECTION
HINT:
Inspect and adjust the valve clearance when the engine is cold.
1. REMOVE CYLINDER HEAD COVER
(a) Disconnect the 4 high±tension cords from the clamps on
the cylinder head cover.
(b) Disconnect the 4 high±tension cords from the spark
plugs.
(c) Disconnect the PCV hose from the intake manifold.
(d) Disconnect the PCV hose from the cylinder head cover.
(e) Disconnect the engine wire clamp from the mounting bolt
of the No.2 timing belt cover.
(f) Remove the cylinder head cover. (See page EM±33)
2. SET NO.1 CYLINDER TO TDC/COMPRESSION
(a) Turn the crankshaft pulley, and align its groove with timing
mark º0º of the No.1 timing belt cover.
(b) Check that the valve lifters on the No.1 cylinder are loose
and valve lifters on the No.4 are tight.
If not, turn the crankshaft one revolution (360°) and align the
mark as above.
3. INSPECT VALVE CLEARANCE
(a) Check only the valves indicated.
(1) Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance be-
tween the valve lifter and camshaft.
(2) Record the out±of±specification valve clearance
measurements. They will be used later to determine
the required replacement adjusting shim.
Valve clearance (Cold):
Intake0.19 ± 0.29 mm (0.007 ± 0.011 in.)
Exhaust0.28 ± 0.38 mm (0.011 ± 0.015 in.)
(b) Turn the crankshaft one revolution (360°) and align the
mark as above.
