check engine TOYOTA CAMRY V20 1986 Service Information

CANCELLING DIAGNOSTIC CODE
1. After repair of the trouble area, the diagnostic code retained
in memory by the ECU must be cancelled out by removing
the EFI fuse (15 A) for 10 seconds or more, depending on
ambient temperature (the lower the temperature, the longer
the fuse must be left out) with the ignition switch OFF.
HINT:
wCancellation can also be done by removing the battery nega-
tive (±) terminal, but in this case, other memory
systems (clock, etc.) will also be cancelled out.
wIf the diagnostic code is not cancelled out, it will be retained
by the ECU and appear along with a new code in the event
of future trouble.
wIf it is necessary to work engine components requiring re-
moval of the battery terminal, a check must first be
made to see if a diagnostic code has been recorded.
2. After cancellation, road test the vehicle to check that a normal
code is now read on the ºCHECKº engine warning
light.
If the same diagnostic code appears, it indicates that the
trouble area has not been repaired thoroughly.
DIAGNOSIS INDICATION
1. (2VZ±FE)
Including ºnormalº, the ECU is programmed with the follow-
ing 16 (Ex. CALIF.) or 18 (CALIF.) diagnostic codes.
2. When 2 or more codes are indicated, the lowest number
(code) will appear first.
However, no other code will appear along with code No.11.
3. All detected diagnostic codes, except code No.51, will be
retained in memory by the ECU from the time of detection
until cancelled out.
4. Once the malfunction is cleared, the ºCHECKº engine warn-
ing light on the instrument panel will go oft but the diagnos-
tic code(s) remain stored in ECU memory (except for code
No.51).

HINT:
wThe following troubleshooting procedures are designed for inspection of each separate system, and
therefore
the actual procedure may vary somewhat. However, troubleshooting should be performed while referring
to the inspection methods described in this manual.
wBefore beginning inspection, it is best to first make a simple check of the fuses, fusible links and the condi-
tion of the connectors.
wThe following troubleshooting procedures are based on the supposition that the trouble lies in either a
short or open circuit within the computer.
wIf engine trouble occurs even though proper operating voltage is detected in the computer connector,
then it can be assumed that the ECU is faulty and should be replaced. .
