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 (Busline) 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.

2. SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION AND DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHECK
The diagnostic system in the SEQUOIA fulfills various functions. The first function is the Diagnostic Trouble
Code Check in which a malfunction in the signal circuits to the ECU is stored in code in the ECU memory
at the time of occurrence, to be output by the technician during troubleshooting. Another function is the Input
Signal Check which checks if the signals from various switches are sent to the ECU correctly.
By using these check functions, the problem areas can be narrowed down quickly and troubleshooting can
be performed effectively. Diagnostic functions are incorporated in the following systems in the SEQUOIA.

In diagnostic trouble code check, it is very important to determine whether the problem indicated by the diag-
nostic trouble code is still occurring or occurred in the past but returned to normal at present. In addition,
it must be checked in the problem symptom check whether the malfunction indicated by the diagnostic
trouble code is directly related to the problem symptom or not. For this reason, the diagnostic trouble codes
should be checked before and after the symptom confirmation to determine the current conditions, as shown
in the table on the next page. If this is not done, it may, depending on the case, result in unnecessary trouble-
shooting for normally operating systems, thus making it more difficult to locate the problem, or in repairs not
pertinent to the problem. Therefore, always follow the procedure in correct order and perform the diagnostic
trouble code check.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
The owners are responsible for these maintenance and inspection items.
They can be done by the owner or they can have them done at a service shop.
These items include those which should be checked on a daily basis, those which, in most cases, do not
require (special) tools and those which are considered to be reasonable for the owner to do.
Items and procedures for general maintenance are as follows.
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. TIRES
(a) Check the pressure with a gauge.
If necessary, adjust.
(b) Check for cuts, damage or excessive wear.
3. WHEEL NUTS
When checking the tires, check the nuts for looseness or for missing.
If necessary, tighten them.
4. TIRE ROTATION (See page SA±3)
Check the owner's manual supplement in which the maintenance schedule is shown.
5. WINDSHIELD WIPER BLADES
Check for wear or cracks whenever they do not wipe clean.
If necessary, replace.
6. FLUID LEAKS
(a) Check underneath for leaking fuel, oil, water or other fluid.
(b) If you smell gasoline fumes or notice any leak, find the cause and correct.
7. DOORS AND ENGINE HOOD
(a) Check that all doors and the tailgate operate smoothly, and that all latches lock securely.
(b) Check that the engine hood secondary latch secures the hood from opening when the primary latch
is released.

1. TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM PRECAUTION
(a) When the tire pressure warning lamp comes on, immedi-
ately check the tire pressure of the tire and adjust it to the
specified pressure. (The tire pressure warning lamp
comes on if there is an open in the tire pressure warning
lamp circuit.)
NOTICE:
Check the spare tire as well since this system monitors
pressure of all tires, including the spare.

(b) When the tire pressure warning lamp blinks, there is a
malfunction in the system. Check for DTCs.
(c) It is necessary to register the transmitter ID in the tire pres-
sure monitor ECU when replacing the tire pressure moni-
tor valve sub±assy and/or tire pressure monitor ECU (see
page DI±805).
(d) When replacing the tire pressure monitor ECU.
(1) Using the DATA LIST, read the transmitter IDs regis-
tered in the ECU and make a note of them before
removing the tire pressure monitor ECU.
(2) Register the transmitter IDs after installing a new
tire pressure monitor ECU.
(e) When replacing the tire pressure monitor valve sub±assy.
(1) Make a note of the 7 digit number (transmitter ID)
written on the tire pressure monitor valve sub±assy
when replacing the tire pressure monitor valve sub±
assy. Register the transmitter IDs in the tire pres-
sure monitor ECU after replacing the tire pressure
monitor valve sub±assy and installing the tires and
wheels on the vehicle.

NOTICE:
The transmitter ID is written on the tire pressure monitor
valve sub±assy and ID can not be seen after installing the
tire pressure monitor valve sub±assy on the tire and wheel.
Therefore, make a note of the transmitter ID before instal-
ling the tire pressure monitor valve sub±assy.
2. IN CASE OF TIRE AND WHEEL REPLACEMENT
(a) When tires and wheels are replaced, register the transmitter ID without fail.
3. IN CASE OF TIRE ROTATION OR REPLACEMENT OF TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR ECU, TIRE
PRESSURE MONITOR VALVE SUB±ASSY, OR TIRES WITH DIFFERENT TIRE PRESSURE
(a) Initialize the tire pressure warning system after one of the following is performed:
Replacing the tire pressure monitor ECU or the tire pressure monitor valve sub±assy
Tire rotation
Replacing tires with different tire pressure
HINT:
The tire pressure warning system will not operate properly if it is not initialized (see page DI±808).
4. FAIL±SAFE FUNCTION
(a) When a system malfunction occurs in the tire pressure warning system, the tire pressure warning lamp
blinks and informs the driver of the system failure.
(b) The result of this diagnosis is stored in the tire pressure monitor ECU.
