P0136
Voltage output of heated oxygen sensor remains at 0.4 V or
more or 0.55 V or less when vehicle is driven at 50 km/h (31

Bank 1 refers to the bank that includes cylinder No.1.
Sensor 2 refers to the sensor farther away from the engine body.
WIRING DIAGRAM
Refer to DTC P0125 on page DI-43.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
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 was warmed up or not, the air-fuel ratio was lean
or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction.
1 Are there any other codes (besides DTC P0136) being output?
YES Go to relevant DTC chart (See page DI-14).
NO
2 Check for open and short in harness and connector between ECM and heated
oxygen sensor (See page IN-30).
NG Repair or replace harness or connector.

HINT:
When the 2 or more codes for a misfiring cylinder are recorded repeatedly but no Random Misfire code is
recorded, it indicates that the misfires were detected and recorded at different times.
WIRING DIAGRAM
CONFIRMATION DRIVING PATTERN
(a) Connect the TOYOTA hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool.
(b) Record the DTC and the freeze frame data.
(c) Use the TOYOTA hand-held tester to set to the check mode (See page DI-3).
(d) Drive the vehicle several times with the engine speed, load and its surrounding range shown with the
ENGINE SPD, CALC LOAD in the freeze frame data or the MISFIRE RPM, MISFIRE LOAD in the data
list.
If you have no TOYOTA hand-held tester, turn the ignition switch OFF after the symptom is simulated the
first time. Then repeat the simulation process again.
HINT:
In order to memorize DTC of misfire, it is necessary to drive around MISFIRE RPM, MISFIRE LOAD in the
data list for the following period of time.

DTC P0325 Knock Sensor 1 Circuit Malfunction (Bank 1)
DTC P0330 Knock Sensor 2 Circuit Malfunction (Bank 2)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Each of knock sensor is fitted to the right bank and left bank of the cylinder block to detect engine knocking.
This sensor contains a piezoelectric element which generates a voltage when it becomes deformed, which
occurs when the cylinder block vibrates due to knocking. If engine knocking occurs, ignition timing is retarded
to suppress it.

DTC P0335 Crankshaft Position Sensor ºAº Circuit Mal-
function
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Crankshaft position sensor (NE signal) consists of a magnet, iron core and pickup coil.
The NE signal plate has 34 teeth and is installed the crankshaft timing pulley. The NE signal sensor gener-
ates 34 signals at every engine revolution. The ECM detects the standard crankshaft angle based on the
G (VV) signal, and the actual crankshaft angle and the engine speed by the NE signal.

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

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 was warmed up or not, the air-fuel

DTC P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Malfunc-
tion
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Camshaft position sensor (G (VV) signal) consists of a magnet, iron core and pickup coil.
The G (VV) signal plate has 3 teeth, on its outer circumference and is installed the camshaft timing gear.
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 installed the crankshaft timing pulley. The NE signal sensor gener-
ates 34 signals at every engine revolution. The ECM detects the standard crankshaft angle based on the
G (VV) signal and the actual crankshaft angle and the engine speed by the NE signal.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
If DTC P0441, P0446, P0450 or P0451 is output after DTC P0440 or P0442, first troubleshoot DTC
P0441, P0446, P0450 or P0451. If no malfunction is detected, troubleshoot DTC P0440 or P0442 next.
Ask the customer whether, after the MIL came on, the customer found the fuel tank cap loose and tight-
ened it. Also ask the customer whether the fuel tank cap was loose when refuelling. If the fuel tank cap
was loose, it was the cause of the DTC. If the fuel tank cap was not loose or if the customer was not
sure if it was loose, troubleshoot according to the following procedure.
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 was warmed up or not, the air-fuel
ratio was lean or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction.
When the ENGINE RUN TIME in the freeze frame data is less than 200 seconds, carefully check the
vapor pressure sensor.
