Diagnostic Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Lexus ES 300 and 2002 Lexus ES 300. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

For circuit wiring diagram, see Fig 1.

  1. Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3. See Figure. Turn the ignition switch ON and push the hand-held tester main switch ON. Select the item VEHICLE SPD in the DATA LIST and read it's value displayed on the hand-held tester. Read the value of the hand-held tester. If the results are OK (actual vehicle speed), proceed to the next circuit inspection shown in the problem symptom table. See CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM SYMPTOMS  table. If the results are not good, go to the next step.
  2. Inspect the combination meter assembly. See Fig 2. If the voltage is OK, go to the next step. If the voltage is not good, check and replace the combination meter assembly. See appropriate INSTRUMENT PANELS article.
  3. Check the harness and connector between the combination meter and ECM. See Fig 3. If the voltage is OK, check and replace the ECM. If the voltage is not good, repair or replace the harness or connector.
