Remove the service plug with the insulated
gloves on.
If the service plug cannot be removed due to damage to the rear
portion of the vehicle, remove the HV fuse or IGCT relay
instead.
(c) Moving the damaged vehicle
HINT:
If any of the following applies, tow the vehicle away using a tow
truck lorry.
One or more of the high±voltage components and cables
is damaged.
The driving, traction, or fuel system is damaged.
The READY light is not lit when you turn ignition key to the
ON position.
NOTICE:
Before towing the vehicle away using a break down
lorry, disconnect the cable from the negative (±) ter-
minal of the auxiliary battery and remove the service
plug.
Only if none of the above applies and you see no prob-
lems that might affect the driving operation, you are
allowed to drive the vehicle away from the place of ac-
cident.
Preform the procedure below if the READY light goes
off or you detect an abnormal noise, abnormal smell,
or strong vibration while traveling:
(1) Park the vehicle in a safe place.
(2) Move the shift lever to the P position and engage
the parking brake.
(3) Disconnect the cable from the negative (±) terminal
of the auxiliary battery.
(4) Remove the service plug with insulated gloves on.

(6) If a damage to any of the high±voltage components
and cables is suspected, cut the high±voltage cir-
cuit using the procedure below:
Move the shift lever to the P position and en-
gage the parking brake.
Remove the ignition key. Then disconnect the
cable from the negative (±) terminal of the
auxiliary battery.
Wear insulated gloves, and then remove the
service plug.
If you cannot remove the service plug due to
damage to the rear portion of the vehicle, re-
move the HV fuse or IGCT relay instead.
(g) Precautions to be taken when disposing of the vehicle
When scrapping the vehicle, remove the HV battery from
the vehicle and return it through the route specified by the
manufacturer. The same applies to any damaged HV bat-
tery.
(h) Precautions to be observed when towing
Tow the damaged vehicle with its front wheels or its front
and rear wheels lifted off the ground.
NOTICE:
Towing the damaged vehicle with its front wheels on the
ground may cause the motor to generate electricity. This
electricity could, depending on the nature of the damage,
leak and cause a fire.
(i) Towing with 4 wheels on the ground
NOTICE:
If you have to tow the damaged vehicle using a rope,
do it at a speed below 30 km/h. Such towing operation
is allowed only to cover very short distance, such as
the distance to a tow truck lorry, for example.
Set the ignition switch to the ACC position and shift
lever to the N position.
If you detect any abnormality in the damaged vehicle
during the towing operation, stop the towing opera-
tion immediately.
(j) Towing eyelet
(1) Install the hook.
(2) Hook a rope onto the illustrated point for towing.

Freeze frame data:
As the freeze frame data records the driving condi-
tion when a malfunction is detected, when trouble-
shooting, it is useful for determining whether the ve-
hicle was running, braked, stopped or reversed.
(b) Check the DLC3.
The HV control ECU conforms to ISO 14230 for commu-
nication.
The terminal arrangement of the DLC3 complies with
SAEJ1962 and matches the ISO 14230 format.

7Bus Line/Pulse generationDuring transmission
4Chassis Ground e Body Ground/1 W or lessAlways
5Signal Ground e Body Ground/1 W or lessAlways
16Battery Positive e Body Ground/10 ± 15 VAlways
HINT:
If your display shows UNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLE
when you have connected the cable of the TOYOTA hand±held
tester to the DLC3, turned the motor switch ON and operated
the tester, there is a problem in the vehicle or tool.
If communication is normal when the tool is connected to
another vehicle, inspect the DLC3 on the original vehicle.
If communication is still not possible when the tool is con-
nected to another vehicle, the problem is probably in the
tool itself, so consult the Service Department.
3. INSPECT DIAGNOSIS
(a) Check the auxiliary battery.
(1) Measure the voltage of the auxiliary battery.
Voltage: 10 ± 15 V
(2) Inspect the auxiliary battery, fuses, fusible links, wir-
ing harness, connectors and ground.
