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 20C (68F). As the re-
sistance may be outside the specifications if measured at high temperatures immediately after
the vehicle has been running, measurements should be made when the engine has 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.

SYMPTOM SIMULATION
HINT:
The most difficult case in troubleshooting is when no symptoms occurs. In such cases, a thorough customer
problem analysis must be carried out. Then the same or similar conditions and environment in which the
problem occurred in the customer's vehicle should be simulated. No matter how much experience a techni-
cian has, or how skilled he may be, if he proceeds to troubleshoot without confirming the problem symptoms,
he will tend to overlook something important in the repair operation and make a wrong guess somewhere,
which will only lead to a standstill. For example, for a problem which only occurs when the engine is cold,
or for a problem which occurs due to vibration caused by the road during driving, etc., the problem can never
be determined when the engine is hot or when the vehicles is at a standstill. Since vibration, heat or water
penetration (moisture) is a likely cause for the problem which is difficult to reproduce, the symptom simulation
tests introduced here are effective measures in a point that the external causes are applied to the vehicle
in a stationary condition.
Important points in the symptom simulation test:
In the symptom simulation test, the problem symptoms should be confirmed, and the problem area or parts
must also be discovered. To do so, reduce the possible problem circuits according to the symptoms before
starting this type of test and have the hand±held tester connected beforehand. After that, carry out the symp-
tom simulation test, judging whether the circuit being tested is defective or normal and also confirming the
problem symptoms at the same time. Refer to the problem symptoms table of each system to narrow down
the possible causes of the symptom.
1. VIBRATION METHOD: When vibration seems to be
the major cause.
(a) PART AND SENSOR
(1) Apply slight vibration with your finger to the part of
the sensor considered to be the problem cause and
check whether the malfunction occurs.
HINT:
Applying strong vibration to relays may result in open relays.
(b) CONNECTORS
(1) Slightly shake the connector vertically and horizon-
tally.
(c) WIRE HARNESS
(1) Slightly shake the wire harness vertically and hori-
zontally.
The connector joint and fulcrum of the vibration are
the major areas that should be checked thoroughly.
2. HEAT METHOD: If the problem seems to occur when
the area in question is heated.
(a) Heat the component that is the possible cause of the mal-
function with a hair dryer or similar object. Check if the
malfunction occurs.
NOTICE:

Do not heat the components to more than 60C
(140F) (Temperature is limited to keep the compo-
nents from being damaged).

± INTRODUCTIONHOW TO TROUBLESHOOT ECU CONTROLLED
SYSTEMS
AVENSIS REPAIR MANUAL (RM1018E)

Do not apply heat directly to the parts in the ECU.
3. WATER SPRINKLING METHOD: When the malfunc-
tion seems to occur on a rainy day or in high±humid-
ity.
(a) Sprinkle water onto the vehicle and check if the malfunc-
tion occurs.
NOTICE:

Never sprinkle water directly onto the engine
compartment, but indirectly change the temperature
and humidity by spraying a mist of water onto the ra-
diator front surface.

Never apply water directly onto the electronic compo-
nents.
HINT:
If a vehicle is subject to water leakage, the leaking water may
contaminate the ECU. When testing a vehicle with a water leak-
age problem, this factor must also be considered.
4. OTHERS: If the malfunction seems to occur when
electrical load is excessive.
(a) Turn on all the electrical equipment including the heater
blower, headlights, rear window defogger, etc., and check
if the malfunction occurs.

(±) terminal cable is disconnected. If necessary, be
sure to initialize the system.
(b) HANDLING OF ELECTRONIC PARTS
(1) Do not open the cover or case of the ECU unless
absolutely necessary (If the IC terminals are
touched, the IC may be rendered inoperative by
static electricity).
(2) To disconnect electronic connectors, pull the con-
nector itself, not the wires.
(3) Be careful not to drop electronic components, such
as sensors or relays. If they are dropped on a hard
floor, they should be replaced and not be reused.
(4) When cleaning the engine with steam, protect the
electronic components, air filter and emission±re-
lated components from water.
(5) Never use an impact wrench to remove or install
temperature switches or temperature sensors.
(6) When checking the continuity at the wire connector,
insert the tester probe carefully to prevent terminals
from bending.
4. REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF FUEL CONTROL PARTS
(a) PLACE FOR REMOVING AND INSTALLING OF FUEL SYSTEM PARTS
(1) Work in a place with good air ventilation and without anything that could cause combustion
around you such as a welder, grinder, drill, electric motor or stove.
(2) Never work in a place such as a pit or nearby a pit, as there is a possibility that vaporized fuel
will collect in those places.
(b) REMOVING AND INSTALLING OF FUEL SYSTEM PARTS
(1) Prepare a fire extinguisher before starting operations.
(2) To prevent static electricity, install a ground on the fuel changer, vehicle and fuel tank, and do
not spray much water so as to prevent slipping.
(3) Never use any electric equipment like an electric motor or a working light, as they may create
sparks or a high temperature.
(4) Never use an iron hammer, as it may create sparks.
(5) Dispose of shop rags containing fuel deposits separately.
5. REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION OF ENGINE INTAKE
PARTS
(a) If any metal tip is mixed in the inlet pass, this may give a
bad effect to the engine and turbocharger.
(b) When removing and installing the inlet system parts,
close the opening of the removed inlet system parts and
the engine with a clean waste cloth or gum tape.
(c) When installing the inlet system parts, check that there is
no mixing of a metal tip.

PRE±CHECK
1.DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM
(a)Description for Euro±OBD (European spec.)

When troubleshooting Euro±OBD vehicles, the
only difference from the usual troubleshooting pro-
cedure is that you connect an OBD scan tool com-
plying with ISO 15031±4 or a hand±held tester to
the vehicle, and read off various data output from
the vehicle's ECM.

Euro±OBD regulations require that the vehicle's
on±board computer illuminates the check engine
warning light (CHK ENG) on the instrument panel
when the computer detects a malfunction in the
emission control system / components or in the
powertrain control components which affect ve-
hicle emissions, or a malfunction in the computer. In
addition to an illumination of the CHK ENG when a
malfunction is detected, the applicable Diagnostic
Trouble Codes (DTCs) prescribed by ISO 15031±4
are recorded in the ECM memory (See page
05±309). If the malfunction does not reoccur in 3
consecutive trips, the CHK ENG goes off automati-
cally but the DTCs remain recorded in the ECM
memory.

To check the DTCs, connect the OBD scan tool or
hand±held tester to Data Link Connector 3 (DLC3)
on the vehicle. The OBD scan tool or hand±held
tester also enables you to erase the DTCs and
check freeze frame data and various forms of en-
gine data. (For operating instructions, see the OBD
scan tool's instruction book.)
DTCs include ISO controlled codes and manufac-
turer controlled codes. ISO controlled codes must
be set as prescribed by the ISO, while manufacturer
controlled codes can be set freely by the manufac-
turer within the prescribed limits (See DTC chart on
page 05±309).

The diagnosis system operates in the normal mode
during normal vehicle use. It also has a check (test)
mode for technicians to simulate malfunction symp-
toms and troubleshoot. Most DTCs use 2 trip detec-
tion logic* to prevent erroneous detection, and to
ensure a thorough malfunction detection. By
switching the ECM to the check (test) mode using
hand±held tester when troubleshooting, a techni-
cian can cause the CHK ENG to illuminate for a mal-
function that is only detected once or momentarily
(Hand±held tester only) (See step 3).
