HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT ECU
CONTROLLED SYSTEMS
GENERAL INFORMATION
A large number of ECU controlled systems are used in the
SIENNA. In general, ECU controlled systems are considered
to be very intricate, requiring a high level of technical
knowledge to troubleshoot. However, most problem checking
procedures only involve inspecting the ECU controlled
system's circuits one by one. An adequate understanding of
the system and a basic knowledge of electricity is enough to
perform effective troubleshooting, accurate diagnoses and
necessary repairs.
FOR USING INTELLIGENT TESTER
– Before using the intelligent tester, read the tester
operator's manual thoroughly.
– If the tester cannot communicate with the ECU controlled
systems when the tester is connected to the DLC3 with the
ignition switch on and the tester turned on, there is a
problem on the vehicle side or tester side.
(1) If communication is normal when the tester 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 tester is
connected to another vehicle, the problem is probably
in the tester itself. Perform the Self Test procedures
outlined in the tester operator's manual.

ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT INSPECTION
PROCEDURE
1. BASIC INSPECTION
(a) WHEN MEASURING RESISTANCE OF
ELECTRONIC PARTS
(1) Unless otherwise stated, all resistance
measurements should be made at an ambient
temperature of 20
C (68F). Resistance
measurements may be inaccurate if measured
at high temperatures, i.e. immediately after the
vehicle has been running. Measurements should
be made after the engine has cooled down.
(b) HANDLING CONNECTORS
(1) When disconnecting a connector, first squeeze
the mating connector housing halves tightly
together to release the lock, and then press the
lock claw and separate the connector.
(2) When disconnecting a connector, do not pull on
the harnesses. Grasp the connector directly and
separate it.
(3) Before connecting a connector, check that there
are no deformations, damage, looseness or
missing terminals.
(4) When connecting a connector, press firmly until
it locks with a "click" sound.
(5) If checking a connector with a TOYOTA
electrical tester, check the connector from the
backside (harness side) using a mini test lead.
NOTICE:
• As a waterproof connector cannot be
checked from the backside, check it by
connecting a sub-harness.
• Do not damage the terminals by moving
the inserted tester needle.
(c) CHECKING CONNECTORS
(1) Checking when a connectors is disconnected:
Squeeze the connector together to confirm that
they are fully connected and locked.
(2) Checking when a connector is disconnected:
Check by pulling the wire harness lightly from
the backside of the connector. Look for
unlatched terminals, missing terminals, loose
crimps or broken conductor wires. Check
visually for corrosion, metallic or foreign matter
and water, and bent, rusted, overheated,
contaminated, or deformed terminals.

(3) Checking the contact pressure of the terminal:
Prepare a spare male terminal. Insert it into a
female terminal, and check for ample tension
when inserting and after full engagement.
NOTICE:
When testing a gold-plated female terminal,
always use a gold-plated male terminal.
(d) REPAIR METHOD OF CONNECTOR TERMINAL
(1) If there is any foreign matter on the terminal,
clean the contact point with compressed air or a
cloth. Never rub the contact point using
sandpaper as the plating may come off.
(2) If there is abnormal contact pressure, replace
the female terminal. If the male terminal is gold-
plated (gold color), use a gold-plated female
terminal; if it is silver-plated (silver color), use a
silver-plated female terminal.
(3) Damaged, deformed, or corroded terminals
should be replaced. If the terminal does not lock
into the housing, the housing may have to be
replaced.
(e) HANDLING OF WIRE HARNESS
(1) If removing a wire harness, check the wiring and
clamping before proceeding so that it can be
restored in the same way.
(2) Never twist, pull or slacken the wire harness
more than necessary.
(3) The wire harness should never come into
contact with a high temperature part, or rotating,
moving, vibrating or sharp-edged parts. Avoid
contact with panel edges, screw tips and other
sharp items.
(4) When installing parts, never pinch the wire
harness.
(5) Never cut or break the cover of the wire harness.
If it is cut or broken, replace it or repair it with
vinyl tape.
2. CHECK FOR OPEN CIRCUIT
(a) For an open circuit in the wire harness in Fig. 1, the
resistance or voltage, as described below.

(b) Check the resistance.
(1) Disconnect connectors A and C and measure
the resistance between the terminals of the
connectors.
Standard resistance (Fig. 2)
HINT:
Measure the resistance while lightly shaking the
wire harness vertically and horizontally. If the
results match the examples above, an open
circuit exists between terminal 1 of connector A
and terminal 1 of connector C.
(2) Disconnect connector B and measure the
resistance between the terminals of the
connectors.
Standard resistance (Fig. 3)
If the results match the examples above, an
open circuit exists between terminal 1 of
connector B2 and terminal 1 of connector C.
(c) Check the voltage.
(1) In a circuit in which voltage is applied to the ECU
connector terminal, an open circuit can be
checked by conducting a voltage check.
With each connector still connected, measure
the voltage between the body ground and these
terminals (in this order): 1) terminal 1 of
connector A, 2) terminal 1 of connector B, and 3)
terminal 1 of connector C.
Standard voltage (Fig. 4)
If the results match the examples above, an
open circuit exists in the wire harness between
terminal 1 of connector B and terminal 1 of
connector C.

3. CHECK FOR SHORT CIRCUIT
(a) If the wire harness is ground shorted (Fig. 5), locate
the section by conducting a resistance check with
the body ground (below).
(b) Check the resistance with the body ground.
(1) Disconnect connectors A and C and measure
the resistance.
Standard resistance (Fig. 6)
HINT:
Measure the resistance while lightly shaking the
wire harness vertically and horizontally. If your
results match the examples above, an open
circuit exists between terminal 1 of connector A
and terminal 1 of connector C.
(2) Disconnect connector B and measure the
resistance.
Standard resistance (Fig. 7)
If the results match the examples above, a short
circuit exists between terminal 1 of connector B2
and terminal 1 of connector C.
4. CHECK AND REPLACE ECU
NOTICE:
• The connector should not be disconnected from
the ECU. Perform the inspection from the
backside of the connector on the wire harness
side.
• When no measuring condition is specified,
perform the inspection with the engine stopped
and the ignition switch on.
• Check that the connectors are fully seated. Check
for loose, corroded or broken wires.
