GENERAL INFORMATION
BASIC REPAIR HINT
(a) Prevent damage and maintain vehicle cleanliness by pro-
tective covering on the fender, seat and floor.
(b) During disassembly, keep parts in the appropriate order
to facilitate reassembly.
(c) Installation and removal of battery terminal:
(1) Before performing electrical work, disconnect the
negative (±) terminal cable from the battery.
(2) If it is necessary to disconnect the battery for in-
spection or repair, first disconnect the negative (±)
terminal cable.
(3) When disconnecting the terminal cable, to prevent
damage to battery terminal, loosen the cable nut
and raise the cable straight up without twisting or
prying it.
(4) Clean the battery terminals and cable ends with a
clean shop rag. Do not scrape them with a file or oth-
er abrasive objects.
(5) Install the cable ends to the battery terminals after
loosening the nut and tighten the nut. Do not use a
hammer to tap the cable ends onto the terminals.
(6) Be sure the cover for the positive (+) terminal is
properly in place.
(d) Check hose and wiring connectors to make sure that they
are connected securely and correctly.
(e) Non±reusable parts
(1) Always replace cotter pins, gaskets, O±rings, oil
seals, etc. with new ones.
(2) Non±reusable parts are indicated in the component
illustrations by the ºº symbol.
(f) Precoated parts
Precoated parts are bolts, nuts, etc. that are coated with
a seal lock adhesive at the factory.
(1) If a precoated part is retightened, loosened or
caused to move in any way, it must be recoated with
the specified adhesive.
(2) When reusing precoated parts, clean off the old
adhesive and dry with compressed air. Then apply
the specified seal lock adhesive to the bolt, nut or
threads.

(k) Care must be taken when jacking up and supporting the
vehicle. Be sure to lift and support the vehicle at the prop-
er locations (See page IN±8).
Cancel the parking brake on the level place and
shift the transmission in N position.
When jacking up the front wheels of the vehicle, first
place stoppers behind the rear wheels.
When jacking up the rear wheels of the vehicle, first
place stoppers before the front wheels.
When either the front or rear wheels only should be
jacked up, set rigid racks and place stoppers in front
and behind of the other wheels on the ground.
After the vehicle is jacked up, be sure to support it
on rigid racks. It is extremely dangerous to do any
work on a vehicle raised on a jack, even for a job that
can be finished quickly.
(l) Observe the following precautions to avoid damage to the
following parts:
(1) Do not open the cover or case of the ECU unless
absolutely necessary. (If the IC terminals are
touched, the IC may be destroyed by static electric-
ity.)
(2) To disconnect vacuum hoses, pull off the end, not
the middle of the hose.
(3) To pull apart electrical connectors, pull on the con-
nector itself, not the wires.
(4) Be careful not to drop electrical components, such
as sensors or relays. If they are dropped on a hard
floor, they should be replaced and not reused.
(5) When steam cleaning an engine, protect the elec-
tronic components, air filter and emission±related
components from water.
(6) Never use an impact wrench to remove or install
temperature switches or temperature sensors.

(7) When checking continuity at the wire connector, in-
sert the tester probe carefully to prevent terminals
from bending.
(8) When using a vacuum gauge, never force the hose
onto a connector that is too large. Use a step±down
adapter for adjustment. Once the hose has been
stretched, it may leak air.
(m) Installation and removal of vacuum hose:
(1) When disconnecting vacuum hoses, use tags to
identify where they should be reconnected to.
(2) After completing a job, double check that the vacu-
um hoses are properly connected. A label under the
hood shows the proper layout.
(n) Bleeding of hydraulic brake booster system.
When repairing the hydraulic brake booster or ABS,
TRAC, VSC system, bleed the air out of the hydraulic
brake booster(See page BR±4).
(o) Unless otherwise stated, all resistance is measured at an
ambient temperature of 20°C (68°F). Because the resis-
tance may be outside specifications if measured at high
temperatures immediately after the vehicle has been run-
ning. Measurement should be made when the engine has
cooled down.

FOR ALL OF VEHICLES
PRECAUTION
1. FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH SRS AIRBAG AND
SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER
(a) The SEQUOIA is equipped with an SRS (Supplemental
Restraint System), such as the driver airbag, front pas-
senger airbag, side airbag assembly, curtain shield airbag
assembly and seat belt pretensioner.
Failure to carry out service operations in the correct se-
quence could cause the supplemental restraint system to
unexpectedly deploy during servicing, possibly leading to
a serious accident.
Further, if a mistake is made in servicing the supplemental
restraint system, it is possible the SRS may fail to operate
when required. Before servicing (including removal or
installation of parts, inspection or replacement), be sure
to read the following items carefully, then follow the cor-
rect procedure described in this manual.
(b) GENERAL NOTICE
(1) Malfunction symptoms of the supplemental re-
straint system are difficult to confirm, so the diag-
nostic trouble codes become the most important
source of information when troubleshooting. When
troubleshooting the supplemental restraint system,
always inspect the diagnostic trouble codes before
disconnecting the battery (See page DI±1118).
(2) Work must be started after 90 seconds from the
time the ignition switch is turned to the ºLOCKº posi-
tion and the negative (±) terminal cable is discon-
nected from the battery.
(The supplemental restraint system is equipped
with a back±up power source because if work is
started within 90 seconds of disconnecting the neg-
ative (±) terminal cable from the battery, the SRS
may deploy.)
When the negative (±) terminal cable is discon-
nected from the battery, memory of the clock and
audio systems will be cancelled. So before starting
work, make a record of the contents memorized in
each memory system. When work is finished, reset
the clock and audio systems as before. To avoid
erasing the memory of each memory system, never
use a back±up power supply from another battery.

(i) AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY
(1) Never reuse the airbag sensor assembly involved
in a collision when the SRS has deployed.
(2) The connectors to the airbag sensor assembly
should be connected or disconnected with the sen-
sor mounted on the floor. If the connectors are con-
nected or disconnected while the airbag sensor as-
sembly is not mounted to the floor, it could cause
undesired ignition of the supplemental restraint sys-
tem.
(3) Work must be started after 90 seconds from the
time the ignition switch is turned to the ºLOCKº posi-
tion and the negative (±) terminal cable is discon-
nected from the battery, even if only loosening the
set bolts of the airbag sensor assembly.
(j) WIRE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR
The SRS wire harness is integrated with the cowl wire har-
ness assembly and floor wire harness assembly. All the
connectors for the system are also a standard yellow col-
or. If the SRS wire harness becomes disconnected or the
connector becomes broken due to an accident, etc., re-
pair or replace it.
2. FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH VEHICLE SKID
CONTROL (VSC) SYSTEM
NOTICE:
Even if TRAC is initially OFF, it automatically be-
comes ON when the vehicle speed becomes about 30
km/h (19 mh) or more. Therefore, please drive in the
test mode to avoid dangerous situations caused by
the TRAC control.
VSC/ABS may be failed when the vehicle is driven on
the two±wheel chassis dynamo. Therefore, after driv-
ing on the chassis dynamo, please clear DTC before
normal driving. Please refer to the page DI±899 for the
method of clearing DTC.
Fasten the vehicle with the lock chain.
(a) Confirm VSC system is OFF.
(1) Turn the ignition switch OFF.
(2) Using SST, connect terminals Ts and CG of DLC3.

HOW TO USE THE DIAGNOSTIC
CHART AND INSPECTION
PROCEDURE
1. CONNECTOR CONNECTION AND TERMINAL IN-
SPECTION
For troubleshooting, diagnostic trouble code charts or
problem symptom table are provided for each circuit with
detailed inspection procedures on the following pages.
When all the component parts, wire harnesses and con-
nectors of each circuit except the ECU are found to be
normal in troubleshooting, then it is determined that the
problem is in the ECU. Accordingly, if diagnosis is per-
formed without the problem symptoms occurring, refer to
step 8 to replace the ECU. So always confirm that the
problem symptoms are occurring, or proceed with inspec-
tion while using the symptom simulation method.
The instructions ºCheck wire harness and connectorº and
ºCheck and replace ECUº which appear in the inspection
procedure, are common and applicable to all diagnostic
trouble codes. Follow the procedure outlined below
whenever these instructions appear.
OPEN CIRCUIT:
This could be due to a disconnected wire harness, faulty con-
tact in the connector, and a connector terminal pulled out, etc.
HINT:
It is rarely the case that a wire is broken in the middle of
it. Most cases occur at the connector. In particular, care-
fully check the connectors of sensors and actuators.
Faulty contact could be due to rusting of the connector
terminals, to foreign materials entering terminals or a de-
formation of connector terminals. Simply disconnecting
and reconnecting the connectors once changes the
condition of the connection and may result in a return to
normal operation. Therefore, in troubleshooting, if no ab-
normality is found in the wire harness and connector
check, but the problem disappears after the check, then
the cause is considered to be in the wire harness or con-
nectors.
SHORT CIRCUIT:
This could be due to a contact between wire harness and the
body ground or to a short circuit occurred inside the switch, etc.
HINT:
When there is a short circuit between the wire harness and body
ground, check thoroughly whether the wire harness is caught
in the body or is clamped properly.
