DTC P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit
Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Camshaft position sensor (G signal) consist of signal plate and pickup coil.
The G signal plate has one tooth on its outer circumference and is mounted on the exhaust camshaft.
When the camshafts rotate, the protrusion on the signal plate and the air gap on the pickup coil change,
causing fluctuations in the magnetic field and generating an electromotive force in the pickup coil.
The NE signal plate has 34 teeth and is mounted on the crankshaft. The NE signal sensor generates 34
signals for every engine revolution. The ECM detects the standard crankshaft angle based on the G signals
and the actual crankshaft angle and the engine speed by the NE signals.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Read freeze frame data using TOYOTA hand±held tester or OBD II scan tool. Because freeze frame records
the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected, when troubleshooting it is useful for determining
whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine warmed up or not, the air±fuel ratio lean or rich, etc.
at the time of the malfunction.
1 Check resistance of camshaft position sensor (signal generator)
(See page IG±1).
Reference: INSPECTION USING OSCILLOSCOPE
Refer to DTC P0335 (Crankshaft Position Sensor ºAº Circuit Malfunction) on page DI±100.
NG Replace camshaft position sensor.
OK
2 Check for open and short in harness and connector between ECM and camshaft
position sensor (See page IN±31).
NG Repair or replace harness or connector.
OK
3 Inspect sensor installation and tooth of camshaft timing pulley
(See pages IG±9 and EM±17).
NG Tighten the sensor. Replace camshaft timing
pulley.
OK
Check and replace ECM (See page IN±31).

DTC P0401 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Flow Insufficient
Detected
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The EGR system recirculates exhaust gas, which is controlled to the proper quantity to suit the driving condi-
tions, into the intake air mixture to slow down combustion, reduce the combustion temperature and reduce
NOx emissions. The amount of EGR is regulated by the EGR vacuum modulator according to the engine
load.
If even one of the following conditions is fulfilled, the VSV is
turned ON by a signal from the ECM.
This results in atmospheric air acting on the EGR valve, closing
the EGR valve and shutting off the exhaust gas (EGR cut±off).
Under the following conditions, EGR is cut to maintain driveabil-
ity.

Before engine is warmed up.

During deceleration (throttle valve closed).

Light engine load (amount of intake air very small).

Engine idling.

Engine speed over 4,400 rpm.

High engine load (amount of intake air very large).

DTC P0420 Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold
(Except California Spec.)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The ECM compares the waveform of the heated oxygen sensor located before the catalyst with the wave-
form of the heated oxygen sensor located behind the catalyst to determine whether or not catalyst perfor-
mance has deteriorated.
Air±fuel ratio feedback compensation keeps the waveform of the heated oxygen sensor before the catalyst
repeatedly changing back and forth from rich to lean.
If the catalyst is functioning normally, the waveform of the heated oxygen sensor behind the catalyst switches
back and forth between rich and lean much more slowly than the waveform of the heated oxygen sensor
before the catalyst.
But when both waveforms change at a similar rate, it indicates that catalyst performance has deteriorated.

CONFIRMATION ENGINE RACING PATTERN
(a) Connect the TOYOTA hand±held tester to the DLC3, or connect the probe of the oscilloscope between
terminals OX1, OX2 and E1 of the ECM connector.
(b) Start engine and warm it up with all accessories switched OFF until water temp. is stable.
(c) Race the engine at 2,500 ~ 3,000 rpm for about 3 min.
(d) After confirming that the waveforms of the heated oxygen sensor (bank 1 sensor 1 (OX1)), oscillate
around 0.5 V during feedback to the ECM, check the waveform of the heated oxygen sensor (bank
1 sensor 2 (OX2)).
HINT:

If there is a malfunction in the system, the waveform of the
heated oxygen sensor (bank 1 sensor 2 (OX2)) is almost
the same as that of the heated oxygen sensor (bank 1
sensor 1 (OX1)) on the left.

There are some cases where, even though a malfunction
exists, the MIL may either light up or not light up.
