HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT ECU CONTROLLED SYSTEMS
GENERAL INFORMATION
There are many ECU controlled systems used in the AVENSIS. In general, ECU controlled system are con-
sidered to be very intricate and require a high level of technical knowledge an\
d expert skill to troubleshoot.
The fact is, however, that if you proceed by inspecting the circuits one by one, troubleshoo\
ting of these sys-
tems is not complex. If you have adequate understanding of the system and ba\
sic knowledge of electricity,
the problem can be accurately diagnosed and fixed. This manual is design\
ed based on the above principle
to help service technicians perform accurate and effective troubleshooting, and is compiled for the following
major ECU controlled systems:
The troubleshooting procedures are described on the following pages.

FOR USING HAND±HELD TESTER
Before using the tester, the tester's operator manual should be read thoroughly.
If the tester cannot communicate with the ECU controlled systems when you \
have connected the cable
of tester to the DLC3, turned the ignition switch ON and operated the test\
er, there is a problem on the
vehicle side or tester side.
(1) If the communication is normal when the tester is connected to another veh\
icle, inspect the diag-
nosis data link line (Bus line) or ECU power circuit of the vehicle.
(2) If the communication is still impossible when the tester is connected to a\
nother vehicle, the prob- lem is probably in the tester itself, so perform the Self Test procedures outlined in the Tester Oper-
ator 's Manual.

6. HANDLING OF HOSE CLAMPS
(a) Before removing the hose, check the depth of the insert-
ing portion and the clamp position to restore it surely.
(b) Change a deformed or dented clamp for a new one.
(c) In case of reusing a hose, attach the clamp on the clamp track portion of the hose.
(d) For a spring type clamp, adjust it by adding force to the
arrow mark direction after the installation.
7. FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH MOBILE COMMU- NICATION SYSTEMS
(a) Install the antenna as far away from the ECU and sensors of the vehicle electronic systems as possible.
(b) Install an antenna feeder at least 20 cm (7.87 in.) away from the ECU and sensors of the vehicle electronic sys-
tems. For details of the ECU and sensors locations, refer
to the section on applicable components.
(c) Prevent the antenna feeder from getting entangled with the other wiring, and keep the antenna feeder separate
from other wiring as much as possible.
(d) Check that the antenna and feeder are correctly adjusted.
(e) Do not install any high±powered mobile communication system.
8. FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH TRACTION CONTROL (TRC) SYSTEM
(a) NOTICES WHEN USING 2±WHEEL DRUM TESTER
(1) When using a 2±wheel drum tester such as a speedometer tester, a combination tester ofspeedometer and brake, chassis dynamometer or else, always turn the TRC system off via the
TRC OFF switch before measurement.
NOTICE:
TRC system OFF condition can be confirmed by the indication, ºTRC OFF\
º, of the warning light in
the combination meter.
9. FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH VEHICLE SKIDCONTROL (VSC) SYSTEM
(a) NOTICES WHEN USING DRUM TESTER
(1) When using a drum tester, be sure to start the en-gine with the ignition OFF, and connect SST to the
terminals TS and CG of the DLC3 before measure-
ment in order to prohibit the VSC operation.

1.INSPECTMASS AIR FLOW METER
(a)If you have hand±held tester: Inspect for operation
(1)Connect the hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(2)Turn the ignition switch ON.
(3)Blow air into the MAF meter, and check that the airflow fluctuates (MAF ) of the CURRENT DATA
shown the standard value.
If operation is not as specified, check the MAF meter (See page
10±56), wiring and ECM.
(b)If you have no hand±held tester: Inspect for operation
(1)Turn the ignition switch ON.
(2)Connect the positive tester probe of the voltmeterto the terminal VG of the ECM. and the negative tes-
ter probe of the voltmeter to the terminal EVG of the
ECM.
(3)Blow air into the MAF meter, and check that the volt- age fluctuates.
If operation is not as specified, check the MAF meter (See page
10±56), wiring and ECM.
2.INSPECT INTAKE SHUTTER
(a)Inspect the throttle control motor for operating sound. (1)Turn the ignition switch ON.
(2)When turning the accelerator pedal position sensor lever, check the running sound of the motor.
Also, check that there is no friction sound.
If operation is not as specified, check the throttle control motor (See page 10±56), wiring and ECM.
(b)Inspect the throttle position sensor. (1)Connect the hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(2)Turn the ignition switch ON.
(3)When turning the accelerator pedal position sensor lever to the full±\
open position, check thatthe throttle valve opening percentage (THROTTLE POS) of the CURRENT DATA shown the
standard value.
Standard throttle valve opening percentage:
60 % or more
If operation is not as specified, check that the accelerator pedal positio\
n sensor (See page 10±56), wiring
and ECM.
If you have no hand±held tester, measure voltage between terminals (LU+A ± LU±A, LU+B ± LU±\
B) of the
ECM connector (See page 05±549).

(2)Allow the engine to warm up to normal operating temperature.
(3)Turn the A/C compressor ON to OFF, and check the idle speed.
Idle speed (Transmission in neutral): 800 50 rpm
NOTICE:
Perform inspection under condition without electrical load.
(d)After checking the above (b) to (d), perform the driving test and check that there is no sense of incon- gruity.
3.INSPECT ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR
(a)Connect the hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(b)Turn the ignition switch ON.
(c)Check that the voltage (ACCEL POS) of the CURRENT DATA shown the standard value. Accelerator pedal released: 0.5 to 1.1 V
Accelerator pedal depress: 2.6 to 4.5 V
(d)Check that the voltage (ACCEL POS #2) of the CURRENT DATA shown the standard value.
Accelerator pedal released: 1.2 to 2.0 V
