ignition switch LEXUS SC400 1991 Service Repair Manual

PRECAUTIONS
1. Before working on the fuel system, disconnect the cablefrom negative (±) terminal of the battery.
HINT: Any diagnostic code retained by the computer will be
erased when the battery terminal is removed. Therefore, if
necessary, read the diagnosis before removing the battery
terminal.
CAUTION: Work must be started after approx. 20 se-
conds or longer from the time the ignition switch is
turned to the ºLOCKº position and negative (±) terminal
cable is disconnected from the battery.
2. Do not smoke or work on open flame when working on the fuel system.
3. Keep gasoline away from rubber or leather parts.
INSPECTION PRECAUTIONS
MAINTENANCE PRECAUTIONS
1. CHECK CORRECT ENGINE TUNE±UP (See page EM±8)
2. PRECAUTIONS WHEN CONNECTING GAUGE (a) Use the battery as the power source for the timing light,tachometer, etc.
(b) Connect the test probe of a tachometer to the terminal IG of the check connector.
3. IN EVENT OF ENGINE MISFIRE, FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN
(a) Check proper connection of battery terminals, etc.
(b) Handle high±tension cords carefully.
(c) After repair work, check that the ignition coil terminalsand all other ignition system lines are reconnected
securely.
(d) When cleaning the engine compartment, be especially careful to protect the electrical system from water.
4. PRECAUTIONS WHEN HANDLING OXYGEN SENSOR (a) Do not allow oxygen sensor to drop or hit against anobject.
(b) Do not allow the sensor to come into contact with water.

IF VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH MOBILE
RADIO SYSTEM (HAM, CB, ETC.)
The ECU has been designed so that it will not be affected by out-
side interference. However, if your vehicle is equipped with a CB
radio transceiver, etc. (even one with about 10 W output), it may,
at times, have an effect upon ECU operation, especially if the an-
tenna and feeder are installed nearby.
Therefore, observe the following precautions:
1. Install the antenna as far away as possible from the ECU. The
ECU is located on the floor panel on the passenger side so
the antenna should be installed at the rear of the vehicle.
2. Keep the antenna feeder as far away as possible from the ECU wires±at least 20 cm (7.87 in.)±and, especially, do not
wind them together.
3. Check that the feeder and antenna are properly adjusted.
4. Do not equip your vehicle with a powerful mobile radio
system.
5. Do not open the cover or the case of the ECU unless absolutely necessary. (If the IC terminals are touched, the IC
may be destroyed by static electricity.)
AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM
1. Separation of the engine oil dipstick, oil filler cap, PCV hose,
etc. may cause the engine to run out of tune.
2. Disconnection, looseness or cracks in the parts of the air induction system between the throttle body and cylinder
head will cause air suction and cause the engine to run out
of tune.
ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM
1. Before removing EFI wiring connectors, terminals, etc., firstdisconnect the power by either turning the ignition switch
OFF or disconnecting the battery terminals.
HINT: Always check the diagnosis code before disconnecting
the battery terminals.
2. When installing the battery, be especially careful not to
incorrectly connect the positive (+) and negative (±) cables.
3. Do not permit parts to receive a severe impact during removal or installation. Handle all EFI parts carefully, especially the
ECU.
4. Do not be careless during troubleshooting as there are numerous transistor circuits and even slight terminal contact
can cause further troubles.
5. Do not open the ECU cover.
6. When inspecting during rainy weather, take care to prevent entry of water. Also, when washing the engine compartment,
prevent water from getting on the EFI parts and wiring
connectors.
7. Parts should be replaced as an assembly. FI±13

5. Check that there are no fuel leaks after performing anymaintenance on the fuel system.
(a) Using SST, connect terminals +B and FP of the check(ºDIAGNOSISº) connector.

(b) With engine stopped, turn the ignition switch ON.
(c) When the fuel return hose is pinched, the pressure within high pressure line will rise to approx. 392 kPa (4
kgf/cm2, 57 psi). In this state, check to see that there are
no leaks from any part of the fuel system.
NOTICE: Always pinch the hose. Avoid bending as it may
cause the hose to crack.
