Tachometer Malfunction: Procedure
- CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
- Check if a CAN communication DTC is output. Refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
.
Result
Result Proceed to CAN communication DTC is not output. A CAN communication DTC is output. B
B → See step 6
A: Go to next step
- Check if a CAN communication DTC is output. Refer to DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
.
- PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING TECHSTREAM (TACHOMETER OPERATION)
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Turn the Techstream on.
- Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Combination Meter / Active Test.
- Check the operation by referring to the table below.COMBINATION METER
Tester Display Test Part Control Range Diagnostic Note Tacho Meter Operation Tachometer 0, 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, 6000, 7000 (rpm) - OK
Tachometer indication is normal.
NG → See step 7
OK: Go to next step
- READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (ENGINE RPM)
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Turn the Techstream on.
- Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Combination Meter / Data List.
- Check the values by referring to the table below.COMBINATION METER
Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note Engine Rpm Engine speed / Min.: 0 rpm, Max.: 12750 rpm Almost same as actual engine speed (Tachometer indication) If data received from the ECM exceeds the range that can be displayed on the meter, the meter continues to display the maximum value of the range. OK
Engine speed displayed on the Techstream is almost the same as the indicated engine speed.
NG → See step 4
OK → See step 7
- READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM (ENGINE SPEED)
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Turn the Techstream ON.
- Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List.
- Check the values by referring to the table below.ENGINE AND ECT (FOR 2AZ-FE)

Result Proceed to OK A NG (for 2AZ-FE) B NG (for 2ZR-FE) C
B → See step 8
C → See step 9
A: Go to next step
- REPLACE ECM
- Replace the ECM with a new or known good one. Refer to REMOVAL - Step 5
for 2AZ-FE. Refer to REMOVAL - Step 4
for 2ZR-FE).
OK
The operation of the tachometer returns to normal.
NG → See step 7
OK → END
- Replace the ECM with a new or known good one. Refer to REMOVAL - Step 5
for 2AZ-FE. Refer to REMOVAL - Step 4
for 2ZR-FE).
- GO TO CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM. Refer to HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING
- REPLACE COMBINATION METER. Refer to REMOVAL - Step 4
- GO TO SFI SYSTEM (for 2AZ-FE). Refer to HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING
- GO TO SFI SYSTEM (for 2ZR-FE). Refer to HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING
