1999-2000 BRAKES
Disc & Drum - Trucks & Vans
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
Hydraulic brake system uses a tandem master cylinder with a vacuum power assist servo. All models (except
Land Cruiser) are equipped with front disc brakes and rear drum brakes standard. Rear disc brakes are standard
on Land Cruiser models.
A Load-Sensing Proportioning Valve (LSVP) is used to regulate brake pressure between front and rear brakes.
Rear brakes on all models are self-adjusting.
Parking brake lever mechanically activates rear brakes. On models with rear drum brakes, a cable applies rear
shoes. On models with rear disc brakes, parking brake is a drum brake internal to rear disc assembly.
BLEEDING BRAKE SYSTEM
BLEEDING PROCEDURES
1. If master cylinder is rebuilt or reservoir is empty, bleed master cylinder first. Bleed wheels in sequence.
Start on wheel with longest hydraulic line, and work toward wheel with shortest hydraulic line.
2. Raise and support vehicle. Ensure brake fluid reservoir is at least half full during bleeding procedure.
Connect one end of transparent vinyl tube to bleeder screw. Submerge other end of tube in a container
half filled with clean brake fluid.
3. Have an assistant depress brake pedal several times and hold in depressed position. Loosen bleeder screw,
and drain fluid into container. Tighten bleeder screw. WARNING:For warnings and procedures regarding vehicles equipped with Anti-Lock
Brake Systems (ABS), see appropriate ANTI-LOCK article.
NOTE: For disc brake coverage on Lexus LX470, see Land Cruiser information in this
article. The 1999 Land Cruiser and Lexus LX470 information is the same. The
2000 Land Cruiser information for models equipped with traction control ABS is
the same on 2000 LX470. Models with traction control ABS do not use a Load-
Sensing Proportioning Valve (lspv) and By-Pass Valve (BPV).
CAUTION: DO NOT allow reservoir to run dry during brake bleeding procedure. Use
only clean brake fluid. Ensure no dirt or other foreign matter contaminates
brake fluid. DO NOT mix different types of brake fluid, as they may not be
compatible. DO NOT spill brake fluid on vehicle, as it may damage paint. If
brake fluid contacts paint, immediately wash with water.
NOTE: Ensure brake pedal remains depressed until bleeder screw is tightened.

PROPORTIONING VALVE & BY-PASS VALVE
Land Cruiser (Models Without Traction Control ABS)
1. Turn ignition off. Depress brake pedal at least 40 times. Install proportioning valve gauge to front brake
caliper brake line connection and to rear brake caliper brake line connection. Bleed air from gauges and
lines.
2. Turn ignition to ON position and wait until pump motor has stopped. Raise front brake caliper pressure
and check rear brake caliper pressure by depressing brake pedal and checking fluid pressure on gauges.
3. If rear brake caliper pressure is incorrect, replace hydraulic brake booster. See HYDRAULIC BRAKE
BOOSTER under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION.

Removal & Installation (Land Cruiser)
Raise and support vehicle. Remove front wheel. Remove clip, 2 pins, 2 pad retainer clips, pads, anti-squeal
shims and pad retainers. See Fig. 5
. Remove enough brake fluid from master cylinder so overflow will not
occur as piston is seated. Seat pistons using a hammer handle or equivalent. Slide NEW pads and anti-rattle
shims into caliper. Check reservoir fluid level. To install, reverse removal procedure. Tighten lower caliper bolt
to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS
.

NOTE: Location and number of anti-rattle springs, anti-squeal shims, pad support and
guide plates vary between models. Note component locations during removal
process for reassembly reference. Tacoma, Tundra and 4Runner with 4WD use
dual-piston calipers; other models use single-piston calipers.
NOTE: Pushing piston into caliper bore will force fluid back into master cylinder
reservoir. Remove reservoir cap when compressing caliper piston.

2. Remove ABS actuator assembly. Disconnect vacuum hose from power brake unit. Remove lower
instrument panel finish panels to access brake pedal arm. Remove Cruise Control Engine Control Unit
(ECU). Remove pedal return spring, clip and clevis pin.
3. Remove 4 nuts and clevis, and remove power brake unit.
4. Install power brake unit. Attach clevis pin, clip and return spring. Install Cruise Control Engine Control
Unit (ECU). Adjust push rod length. See POWER BRAKE UNIT PUSH ROD
under ADJUSTMENTS.
5. Install master cylinder with NEW gasket. Connect vacuum hose. Fill master cylinder. Bleed system and
check for leads. Adjust brake pedal, if necessary. Install cowl panel and vent louvers.

1999-2000 STARTING & CHARGING SYSTEMS
Generators & Regulators
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
The generator is a small, high RPM, high performance type with an internal Integrated Circuit (IC) voltage
regulator which controls charging system voltage. A transistor inside IC regulator controls generator voltage
output to maintain a constant voltage. Charging system voltage is maintained within an operating range of 13.2-
15.1 volts. See GENERATOR REGULATED OUTPUT SPECIFICATIONS
table under NO-LOAD TEST
under ON-VEHICLE TESTING for specific model operating ranges. For generator rated ampere output, see
GENERATOR RATED AMPERE OUTPUT SPECIFICATIONS
table.
When ignition is turned on, battery voltage flows from generator terminal "L" through IC regulator to ground,
causing discharge warning light to come on. When engine starts, generator RPM increases, which increases
generator output voltage. When generator output voltage is greater than battery voltage, voltage to recharge
battery flows from terminal "B". At the same time, voltage at terminal "L" increases and the potential difference
between battery and terminal "L" ceases, causing discharge warning light to go off.

1999-2000 ENGINE COOLING
Electric Cooling Fans
IDENTIFICATION
ELECTRIC COOLING FAN IDENTIFICATION
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
Land Cruiser, Tacoma, Tundra and 4Runner use a belt-driven cooling fan attached to the water pump. All other
models use 2 electric cooling fans located directly behind the radiator. Fans are controlled via Engine Coolant
Temperature (ECT) switches/sensors, and turn on when engine coolant temperature is above 208°F (98°C) on
Avalon, Camry with 3.0L, Camry Solara with 3.0L and Sienna. On Camry with 2.2L, Camry Solara with 2.2L,
Celica, Corolla, ECHO, MR2 and RAV4, ECT turns cooling fans on above 199°F (93°C). On Avalon, Camry
with 3.0L, Camry Solara with 3.0L and Sienna, fans will turn off when engine coolant temperature falls below
190°F (88°C). On Camry with 2.2L, Camry Solara with 2.2L, Celica, Corolla and RAV4, fans will turn off
below 181°F (83°C).
SYSTEM TESTS
ELECTRIC COOLING FAN
Avalon (1999), Camry 3.0L, Camry Solara 3.0L & Sienna
1. With engine coolant temperature below 190°F (88°C), turn ignition switch to ON position (engine off).
Ensure fans stop.
2. If fan do not stop, test cooling fan relay and ECT switch. See COOLING FAN RELAYS
and ECT
SWITCH . Check for loose or broken connector or wiring between relay and ECT switch. Repair as
necessary.
3. Disconnect No. 1 ECT switch connector. See ECT SWITCH LOCATIONS
table. With ignition still in
ON position, ensure cooling fan turns on. If not, check fuses, engine main relay, cooling fan relay and
cooling fan motor. Check for short between cooling fan relay and ECT switch.
4. Start engine and raise temperature above 208°F (98°C). Ensure cooling fan turns. If not, replace No. 1
ECT switch.
5. Stop engine and disconnect cooling fan 2-pin connector. With battery connected to ammeter (positive
battery terminal to positive ammeter terminal and negative battery and negative ammeter terminals to
each connector pin), test amperage readings. See Fig. 1
. If readings are not as specified, replace cooling
fan. See COOLING FAN AMPERAGE READINGS
table. Reconnect fan connector.
