HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT ECU CONTROLLED SYSTEMS
GENERAL INFORMATION
A large number of ECU controlled systems are used in the SEQUOIA. In general, the ECU controlled system
is considered to be a very intricate system requiring a high level of technical knowledge and expert skill to
troubleshoot. However, the fact is that if you proceed to inspect the circuits one by one, troubleshooting of
these systems is not complex. If you have adequate understanding of the system and a basic knowledge
of electricity, accurate diagnosis and necessary repair can be performed to locate and fix the problem. This
manual is designed through emphasis of the above standpoint to help service technicians perform accurate
and effective troubleshooting, and is compiled for the following major ECU controlled systems:
The troubleshooting procedure and how to make use of it are described on the following pages.

FOR USING OBD II SCAN TOOL OR TOYOTA HAND±HELD TESTER

Before using the scan tool or tester, the scan tool's instruction book or tester's operator manual should
be read thoroughly.

If the scan tool or tester cannot communicate with ECU controlled systems when you have connected
the cable of the scan tool or tester to DLC3, turned the ignition switch ON and operated the scan tool,
there is a problem on the vehicle side or tool side.
(1) If communication is normal when the tool is connected to another vehicle, inspect the diagnosis
data link line (Bus
line) or ECU power circuit of the vehicle.
(2) If communication is still not possible when the tool is connected to another vehicle, the problem
is probably in the tool itself, so perform the Self Test procedures outline in the Tester Operator's
Manual.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
1. GENERAL NOTES

Maintenance items may vary from country to country. Check the owner's manual supplement in which
the maintenance schedule is shown.

Every service item in the periodic maintenance schedule must be performed.

Periodic maintenance service must be performed according to whichever interval in the periodic main-
tenance schedule occurs first, the odometer reading (miles) or the time interval (months).

Maintenance service after the last period should be performed at the same interval as before unless
otherwise noted.

Failure to do even one item can cause the engine to run poorly and increase exhaust emissions.
2. WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID
Check that there is sufficient fluid in the tank.
3. ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL
Check that the coolant level is between the FULL and LOW lines on the see±through reservoir.
4. RADIATOR AND HOSES
(a) Check that the front of the radiator is clean and not blocked with leaves, dirt or bugs.
(2UZ±FE engine: See page CO±14)
(b) Check the hoses for cracks, kinks, rot or loose connections.
5. BATTERY ELECTROLYTE LEVEL
Check that the electrolyte level of all battery cells is between the upper and lower level lines on the case.
6. BRAKE AND CLUTCH FLUID LEVELS
Check that the brake and clutch fluid levels are near the upper level line on the see±through reservoirs.
7. ENGINE DRIVE BELTS
Check all drive belts for fraying, cracks, wear or oiliness.
8. ENGINE OIL LEVEL
Check the level on the dipstick with the engine turned off.
9. POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL
(a) Check the level on the dipstick.
(b) The level should be in the HOT or COLD range depending on the fluid temperature.
10. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID LEVEL
(a) Park the vehicle on a level surface.
(b) With the engine idling and the parking brake applied, shift the selector into all positions from the P to
L, and then shift into the P position.
(c) Pull out the dipstick and wipe off the fluid with a clean rag. Re±insert the dipstick and check that the
fluid level is in the HOT range.
(d) Do this check with the fluid at normal driving temperature (70 ± 80°C, 158 ± 176°F).
HINT:
Wait until the engine cools down (approx. 30 min.) before checking the fluid level after extended driving at
high speeds, in hot weather, in heavy traffic or pulling a trailer.
11. EXHAUST SYSTEM
(a) Visually inspect for cracks, holes or loose supports.
(b) If any change in the sound of the exhaust or smell of the exhaust fumes is noticed, find the cause and
correct.

CHECK MODE PROCEDURE
HINT:
Hand±held tester only:
Check mode has a higher sensitivity to detect malfunctions and
can detect malfunctions that normal mode cannot detect.
Check mode can also detect all the malfunctions that normal
mode can detect.
1. CHECK MODE PROCEDURE
(a) Make sure that the items below are true.
(1) Battery positive voltage 11 V or more
(2) Throttle valve fully closed
(3) Transmission in the P or N position
(4) A/C switched OFF
(b) Turn the ignition switch OFF.
(c) Connect the hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(d) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(e) Change the ECM to check mode with the hand±held tes-
ter. Enter the following menus: DIAGNOSIS / EN-
HANCED OBD II / CHECK MODE. Make sure the MIL
flashes as shown in the illustration.
NOTICE:
All DTCs and freeze frame data recorded will be erased if:
1) the hand±held tester is used to change the ECM from
normal mode to check mode or vice±versa; or 2) during
check mode, the ignition switch is turned from ON to ACC
or OFF.
(f) Start the engine. The MIL should turn off after the engine
starts.
(g) Simulate the conditions of the malfunction described by
the customer.
(h) After simulating the malfunction conditions, use the
hand±held tester diagnosis selector to check the DTC,
freeze frame data and other data.
(i) After checking the DTC, inspect the applicable circuit.
2. CLEAR DTC (Using the hand±held tester)
(a) Connect the OBD ll scan tool or the hand±held tester to
the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(c) Erase DTCs and freeze frame data with the OBD II scan
tool (complying with SAE J1978) or the hand±held tester.
For the hand±held tester: 1) enter the following menus:
DIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / DTC INFO / CLEAR
CODES; and 2) press YES. For the OBD II scan tool, see
its instruction manual.

MANUAL SHIFTING TEST
1. MANUAL SHIFTING TEST
HINT:

With this test, it can be determined whether the trouble oc-
curs in the electrical circuit or is a mechanical problem in
the transmission.

If any abnormalities are found in the following test, the
problem is in the transmission itself.
(a) Disconnect the connector of the transmission wire.
(b) Drive with the transmission wire disconnected.
Shifting the shift lever to the L, 2, 3, 4 and D position to
check whether the shifting condition changes the table
below.
Shift PositionShifting Condition
L @2No Shift (Not Change)
2 @3Down Shift @Up Shift
3 @4Down Shift @Up Shift
4 @DNo Shift (Not Change)
HINT:
When driving with the transmission wire disconnected, the gear
position will be as follows:

When the shift lever is in the L or the 2 position, the gear
is held in the 1st position.

When the shift lever is in the 3rd position, the gear is held
in the 3rd position.

When the shift lever is in the 4 or the D position, the gear
is held in the 4th position.

When the shift lever is in the R or the P position, the gear
is also in the R or the P position respectively.
(c) Connect the connector of the transmission wire.
(d) Clear the DTC (See page DI±565).
