WIRING DIAGRAM
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 Connect OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held tester, and read value of mass
air flow rate.
PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON and push the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held tester main switch
ON.
(c) Start the engine.
CHECK:
Read the mass air flow rate on the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held tester.
RESULT:
Type IType II
Mass Air Flow Rate (gm/sec.)0.0271.0 or more
Type I Go to step 2.
Type II Go to step 5.

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 Connect OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held tester, and check knock sensor
circuit.
PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the OBD II scan tool or TOYOTA hand-held tes-
ter to the DLC3.
(b) Disconnect the wire from wire connector EB1.
(c) Connect the terminals of the disconnected EB1 male con-
nector and EB1 female as follows.
Male connector eFemale connector
Terminal 1 e Terminal 2
Terminal 2 e Terminal 1
(d) Turn the ignition switch ON and push the OBD II scan tool
or TOYOTA hand-held tester main switch ON.
(e) After the engine is warmed up, perform quick racing to
4,000 rpm 3 times.
CHECK:
Check the DTC.
RESULT:
Type IDTC same as when vehicle brought in
P0325 " P0325 or P0330 " P0330
Type IIDTC different to when vehicle brought in
P0325 " P0330 or P0330 " P0325
Reference: INSPECTION USING OSCILLOSCOPE

With the engine racing (4,000 rpm), check the waveform
between terminals KNKR, KNKL of the ECM connector
and body ground.
HINT:
The correct waveform is as shown.

Spread the time on the horizontal axis, and confirm that
period of the wave is 141 msec. (Normal mode vibration
frequency of knock sensor: 7.1 kHz)
HINT:
If normal mode vibration frequency is not 7.1 kHz, the sensor
is malfunctioning.
Type II Go to step 3.

DTC P0505 Idle Control System Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The rotary solenoid type IAC valve is located in front of the in-
take air chamber and intake air bypassing the throttle valve is
directed to the IAC valve through a passage.
In this way the intake air volume bypassing the throttle valve is
regulated, controlling the engine speed.
The ECM operates only the IAC valve to perform idle-up and
provide feedback for the target idling speed.
DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
P0505Idle speed continues to vary greatly from the target speed (2
trip detection logic)
