Inspection Procedure

  1. READ VALUE OF HAND-HELD TESTER (ENGINE SPEED SIGNAL) 
    1. Operate the hand-held tester according to the steps on the display and select "DATA LIST".

      ECM: 

      DATA LIST (ECM)

      Item Measurement Item/Range (Display) Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Engine Spd Engine speed/Min.: 0 RPM, Max.: 16,383 RPM Almost the same as the actual engine speed (When engine is running)  

      OK: Engine speed displayed on the tester is almost the same as the actual engine speed. 

    1. NG: GO TO ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM (SEE  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING  (1ZZ-FE),  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING  (2ZZ-GE)) 
    2. OK: GO TO NEXT STEP 
  2. INSPECT COMBINATION METER ASSY 

    INSPECTION USING OSCILLOSCOPE

    1. Check the input signal wave form.
      1. Remove the combination meter with connector still connected.
      2. Connect the oscilloscope to terminal C9-19 and body ground.
      3. Start the engine.

      4. Check the signal wave form according to the condition (s) in the table below.
        WAVE FORM CONDITION

        Item Condition
        Tool setting 5V/DIV, 10ms/DIV
        Vehicle condition Engine idle speed

        OK: As shown in the illustration

    1. NG: Go to step 3 
    2. OK: GO TO NEXT STEP 

      REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSY (SEE  COMBINATION METER ASSY  ) 

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BETWEEN ECM AND COMBINATION METER ASSY) (SEE  HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING  ) 
    1. Disconnect the C9 and E5 (E6) connectors.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value (s) in the table below.

      Standard:

      TESTER CONNECTION SPECIFIED CONDITION

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      (1)C9-19-E6-5 Always Below 1 Ω
      (2)C9-19-E5-3 Always Below 1 Ω
      C9-19 - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      (1) 1ZZ-FE
      (2) 2ZZ-GE

    1. NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 
    2. OK: GO TO NEXT STEP 

      REPLACE ECM
