ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1. BASIC INSPECTION
(a) RESISTANCE MEASURING CONDITION OF ELECTRONIC PARTS (1) Unless stated, all resistance is measured at an ambient temperature of 20 C (68 F). As the re-
sistance may be outside the specifications if measured at high temperatures imme\
diately after
the vehicle has been running, measurements should be made when the engine h\
as cooled
down.
(b) HANDLING OF CONNECTOR(1) When removing the connector with lock, press the
connector in the direction of the engagement and
remove the lock by lightly pressing the lock claw.
(2) When removing the connector, do not hold the har- ness, but hold the connector.
(3) Before connecting the connector, check that there is no deformation, damage or missing terminals.
(4) The connector with a lock should be securely con- nected until it makes a ºclickº sound.
(5) When checking the connector with a Toyota electri- cal tester, check it from the backside (harness side)
of the connector using a mini test lead.
NOTICE:

As a water proof connector cannot be checked from
the backside, check by connecting the sub±harness.

Do not damage the terminals by moving the inserted
tester needle.
(c) CONNECTOR CHECKING POINTS
(1) Checking when the connector is connected:By holding the connector, check the inserted condi-
tion and locking efficiency (engaged condition).
(2) Checking when the connector is removed: Check by lightly pulling the wire harness (missing
terminal, terminal crimping condition, core wire
break).
Check visually for any rust, metal particles, water
and bent terminals (rust, mixing of foreign object,
terminal deformation).
NOTICE:
When testing a gold±plated female terminal, always use a
gold±plated male terminal.

(3) Checking of the contact pressure of the terminal:
Prepare a spare male terminal.
Insert it into a female terminal, check the engaged
condition and sliding resistance.
(d) REPAIR METHOD OF CONNECTOR TERMINAL (1) If there is on the contact point, clean the contact
point using an air gun or shop rag. However, never
polish the contact point using sand paper as the
platings may come off.
(2) In case of abnormal contact pressure, replace the
female terminal. However, if a male terminal is gold±
plated (gold color), use gold±plated female terminal
and if it is silver±plated (silver color), use silver±
plated female terminal.
(e) HANDLING OF WIRE HARNESS (1) When removing the wire harness, check the posi-tioning of the wiring and clamping before starting
work in order to be able to restore it correctly.
(2) Never twist, pull or loosen the wire harness more
than necessary.
(3) Never allow the wire harness to come into contact with a high±temperature, rotating, moving, vibrating
or sharp (edge of the panel, tip of the screw, etc.)
part.
(4) When installing parts, never let the wire harness be interfered with.
(5) Never cut or break the cover of the wire harness. If one is cut or broken, replace it or securely repair it
with electrical tape.
2. CHECK OPEN CIRCUIT
(a) For the open circuit in the wire harness in Fig. 1, perform a continuity check in step (b) or a voltage check in step (c)
to locate the section.

(b) Check the continuity. (1) Disconnect connectors A and C and measure theresistance between them.
Resistance: 1
or less
HINT:
Measure the resistance while lightly shaking the wire harness
vertically and horizontally. In the case of Fig. 2:
Between terminal 1 of connector A and terminal 1
of connector C
No continuity (open)
Between terminal 2 of connector A and terminal 2
of connector C
Continuity
Therefore, the cause is an open circuit between ter-
minal 1 of connector A and terminal 1 of connector
C.
(2) Disconnect connector B and measure the resis-
tance between the connectors.
In the case of Fig. 3:
Between terminal 1 of connector A and terminal 1
of connector B1
Continuity
Between terminal 1 of connector B2 and terminal 1
of connector C
No continuity (open)
Therefore, the cause is an open circuit between ter-
minal 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 ECUconnector terminal), an open circuit can be checked
by conducting a voltage check.
As shown in Fig. 4, with each connector still con-
nected, measure the voltage between the body
ground and terminal 1 of connector A at the ECU 5
V output terminal, terminal 1 of connector B, and
terminal 1 of connector C, in that order.
(2) If the results are: 5 V: Between terminal 1 of connector A and body
ground
5 V: Between terminal 1 of connector B and body
ground
0 V: Between terminal 1 of connector C and body
ground
Therefore, the cause is an open circuit in the wire
harness between terminal 1 of connector B and ter-
minal 1 of connector C.

3. CHECK SHORT CIRCUIT
(a) If the wire harness is ground shorted as shown in Fig. 5,
locate the section by conducting a continuity check with
the body ground in step (b).
(b) Check the continuity with the body ground. (1) Disconnect connectors A and C and measure the
resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of connector
A and the body ground.
Resistance: 10 k
or higher
HINT:
Measure the resistance while lightly shaking the wire harness
vertically and horizontally.
In the case of Fig. 6:
Between terminal 1 of connector A and body
ground Continuity (short)
Between terminal 2 of connector A and body
ground No continuity
Therefore, the cause is a short circuit between ter-
minal 1 of connector A and terminal 1 of connector
C.
(2) Disconnect connector B and measure the resis- tance between terminal 1 of connector A and the
body ground, and terminal 1 of connector B2 and
the body ground.
In the case of Fig. 7:
Between terminal 1 of connector A and body
ground No continuity
Between terminal 1 of connector B2 and body
ground Continuity (short)
Therefore, the cause is a short circuit between ter-
minal 1 of connector B2 and terminal 1 of connector
C.

4. CHECK AND REPLACE ECU
NOTICE:

Start an inspection of the connector from the back-
side of the connector on the wire harness side with
the connector connected to the ECU.

When no measurement condition is specified, per-
form the inspection with the engine stopped and also
the ignition switch ON.
(a) First check the ECU ground circuit. If it is faulty, repair it. If it is normal, the ECU could be faulty. In this case, re-
place the ECU with one that functions normally and check
if the symptoms appear.
(1) Measure the resistance between the ECU groundterminal and body ground.
Resistance: 1
or less
(2) Disconnect the ECU connector, check the ground terminals on the ECU side and wire harness side for
bends and check the contact pressure.

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.

CUSTOMER PROBLEM ANALYSIS
HINT:
In troubleshooting, the problem symptoms must be confirmed accurately, meaning that all preconcep-
tions must be set aside in order to make an accurate judgement. To ascertain what the problem symp-
toms are, it is extremely important to ask the customer about the problem an\
d conditions when it oc-
curred.
The following 5 items are important points in the problem analysis. Past\
problems which are thought
to be unrelated and the repair history, etc. may also help in some cases. Therefore, as much informa-
tion as possible should be gathered and its relationship with the problem symptoms should be correctly
ascertained for use as reference in troubleshooting. A customer problem analysis ta\
ble is provided for
your use in the Diagnostics Section for each system.

SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION AND DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE
HINT:

The diagnostic system in AVENSIS has various functions. The first function is the Diagnostic Trouble
Code (DTC) Check, in which a malfunction in the signal circuits to the ECU is stored in code form in
the ECU memory. Another function is the Input Signal Check, which checks if the signals from various
switches are sent to the ECU correctly. By using these check functions, it is possible to quickly narrow
down potential problem areas and troubleshooting can be performed effectively. The diagnostic func-
tions are incorporated in the following systems in the AVENSIS.

In the DTC check, it is very important to determine whether the problem indicated by the DTC is still
occurring or has occurred in the past but returned to normal at present. In addit\
ion during the problem
symptom check, it a check must be made on whether the malfunction indicated by \
the DTC is directly
related to the problem symptom or not. For this reason, the DTC should be checked before and after
symptom confirmation to determine the current conditions. If this is not done, \
it may, depending on the
case, result in unnecessary troubleshooting for systems that are operati\
ng normally. This would make
more difficult to detect the problem area or to try to repair irrelevant areas. \
Therefore, always follow
the procedures in the correct order and perform the DTC check.

A flow chart showing how to proceed with troubleshooting using the diagnostic trouble\
code (DTC)
check is shown the this page. This flow chart shows how to utilize the DTC check effectively. Then,
by carefully checking the results, this chart indicates how to proceed either to the DTC troubleshooting
or to the troubleshooting of the problem symptoms table.
