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 continuity between terminal KNK1 of ECM connector and body ground.
PREPARATION:
(a) Remove the ECM with connector still connected (See
page SF±62).
(b) Disconnect the E7 connector of the ECM.
CHECK:
Measure resistance between terminal KNK1 of the ECM con-
nector and body ground.
OK:
Resistance: 1 MW or higher
OK Go to step 3.

2 Check knock sensor (See page SF±56).
NG Replace knock sensor.
OK
3 Check for open and short in harness and connector between ECM and knock
sensor (See page IN±41).
NG Repair or replace harness or connector.
OK

YES Replace knock sensor.
NO

Reference: INSPECTION USING OSCILLOSCOPE

With the engine racing (4,000 rpm) measure between ter-
minal KNK of the ECM connector and body ground.
HINT:
The correct waveforms are as shown.

Spread the time on the horizontal axis, and confirm that
period of the wave is 132 m sec.
(Normal mode vibration frequency of knock sensor:
8.1 kHz)
HINT:
If normal mode vibration frequency is not 8.1 kHz the sensor is
malfunctioning.

Perform troubleshooting of DTC 335 1st. If notrouble is found, troubleshoot the following mechanical
system.

DTC P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit
Malfunction
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Camshaft position sensor (G22 signal) consist of signal plate and pick up coil.
The G22 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 pick up coil change,
causing fluctuations in the magnetic field and generating an electromotive force in the pick up 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 G22 sig-
nals and the actual crankshaft angle and the engine speed by the NE signals.

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


DTC No.DTC Detecting ConditionTrouble Area
P0420
After the engine and the catalyst are warmed up, and while the
vehicle is driven within the set vehicle and engine speed range,
the waveforms of the oxygen sensors (bank 1 sensor 1 and
bank 1 sensor 2) have the same amplitude

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) Drive the vehicle at 89 km/h (55 mph) or more for 5 min. or more.
(d) After confirming that the waveforms of the oxygen sensor, bank 1 sensor 1 (OX1), oscillate around 0.5
V during feedback to the ECM, check the waveform of the oxygen sensor, bank 1 sensor 2 (OX2).
HINT:

If there is a malfunction in the system, the waveform of the
oxygen sensor, bank 1 sensor 2 (OX2),is shown on the
left.

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

Normal waveform of OX2 is a smooth line of 0.6 to 0.7 V.
