GENERAL INFORMATION
1. BASIC REPAIR HINT
(a) Use fender, seat and floor covers to keep the vehicle
clean and prevent damage.
(b) During disassembly, keep parts in the appropriate order
to facilitate reassembly.
(c) Observe the following:
(1) Before performing electrical work, disconnect the
negative (-) terminal cable from the battery.
(2) If it is necessary to disconnect the battery for in-
spection or repair, always disconnect the negative
(-) terminal cable which is grounded to the vehicle
body.
(3) To prevent damage to the battery terminal, loosen
the cable nut and raise the cable straight up without
twisting or prying it.
(4) Clean the battery terminals and cable ends with a
clean shop rag. Do not scrape them with a file or oth-
er abrasive objects.
(5) Install the cable ends to the battery terminals with
the nut loose, and tighten the nut after installation.
Do not use a hammer to tap the cable ends onto the
terminals.
(6) Be sure the cover for the positive (+) terminal is
properly in place.
(d) Check hose and wiring connectors to make sure that they
are secure and correct.
(e) Non-reusable parts
(1) Always replace cotter pins, gaskets, O-rings and oil
seals etc. with new ones.
(2) Non-reusable parts are indicated in the component
illustrations by the ºº symbol.
(f) Precoated parts
Precoated parts are bolts and nuts, etc. that are coated
with a seal lock adhesive at the factory.
(1) If a precoated part is retightened, loosened or
caused to move in any way, it must be recoated with
the specified adhesive.
(2) When reusing precoated parts, clean off the old
adhesive and dry with compressed air. Then apply
the specified seal lock adhesive to the bolt, nut or
threads.
(3) Precoated parts are indicated in the component il-
lustrations by the º
º symbol.
(g) When necessary, use a sealer on gaskets to prevent
leaks.

(h) Carefully observe all specifications for bolt tightening
torques. Always use a torque wrench.
(i) Use of special service tools (SST) and special service ma-
terials (SSM) may be required, depending on the nature
of the repair. Be sure to use SST and SSM where speci-
fied and follow the proper work procedure. A list of SST
and SSM can be found in the preparation part at the front
of each section in this manual.
(j) When replacing fuses, be sure the new fuse has the cor-
rect amperage rating. DO NOT exceed the rating or use
one with a lower rating.
(k) Care must be taken when jacking up and supporting the
vehicle. Be sure to lift and support the vehicle at the prop-
er locations (See page IN-8).
(1) If the vehicle is to be jacked up only at the front or
rear end, be sure to block the wheels at the opposite
end in order to ensure safety.
(2) After the vehicle is jacked up, be sure to support it
on stands. It is extremely dangerous to do any work
on a vehicle raised on a jack alone, even for a small
job that can be finished quickly.

(l) Observe the following precautions to avoid damage to the
following parts:
(1) Do not open the cover or case of the ECU, ECM,
PCM or TCM unless absolutely necessary. (If the IC
terminals are touched, the IC may be destroyed by
static electricity.)


(2) To disconnect vacuum hoses, pull on the end, not
the middle of the hose.
(3) To pull apart electrical connectors, pull on the con-
nector itself, not the wires.
(4) Be careful not to drop electrical components, such
as sensors or relays. If they are dropped on a hard
floor, they should be replaced and not reused.
(5) When steam cleaning an engine, protect the elec-
tronic components, air filter and emissions-related
components from water.
(6) Never use an impact wrench to remove or install
temperature switches or temperature sensors.
(7) When checking continuity at the wire connector, in-
sert the tester probe carefully to prevent terminals
from bending.
(8) When using a vacuum gauge, never force the hose
onto a connector that is too large. Use a step-down
adapter for adjustment. Once the hose has been
stretched, it may leak.
(m) Tag hoses before disconnecting them:
(1) When disconnecting vacuum hoses, use tags to
identify how they should be reconnected.
(2) After completing a job, double check that the vacu-
um hoses are properly connected. A label under the
hood shows the proper layout.
(n) Unless otherwise stated, all resistance is measured at an
ambient temperature of 20°C (68°F). Because the resis-
tance may be outside specifications if measured at high
temperatures immediately after the vehicle has been run-
ning, measurements should be made when the engine
has cooled down.

PRECAUTION
1. FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH SRS AIRBAG
(a) The TOYOTA SUPRA is equipped with an SRS (Supple-
mental Restraint System), such as the driver airbag, front
passenger airbag.
Failure to carry out service operations in the correct se-
quence could cause the supplemental restraint system to
unexpectedly deploy during servicing, possibly leading to
a serious accident.
Further, if a mistake is made in servicing the supplemental
restraint system, it is possible the SRS may fail to operate
when required. Before servicing (including removal or
installation of parts, inspection or replacement), be sure
to read the following items carefully, then follow the cor-
rect procedure described in this manual.
(b) GENERAL NOTICE
(1) Malfunction symptoms of the supplemental re-
straint system are difficult to confirm, so the diag-
nostic trouble codes become the most important
source of information when troubleshooting. When
troubleshooting the supplemental restraint system,
always inspect the diagnostic trouble codes before
disconnecting the battery (See page DI-555).
(2) Work must be started after 90 seconds from the
time the ignition switch is turned to the ºLOCKº posi-
tion and the negative (-) terminal cable is discon-
nected from the battery.
(The supplemental restraint system is equipped
with a back-up power source so that if work is
started within 90 seconds of disconnecting the neg-
ative (-) terminal cable from the battery, the SRS
may deploy.)
When the negative (-) terminal cable is discon-
nected from the battery, memory of the clock and
audio systems will be cancelled. So before starting
work, make a record of the contents memorized by
the audio memory system. Then when work is fin-
ished, reset the clock and audio systems as before.
To avoid erasing the memory of each memory sys-
tem, never use a back-up power supply from out-
side the vehicle.

(3) Even in cases of a minor collision where the SRS
does not deploy, the steering wheel pad, front pas-
senger airbag assembly and front airbag sensor
should be inspected (See page SR- 8, RS- 22,
RS-34).
(4) Never use SRS parts from another vehicle. When
replacing parts, replace them with new parts.
(5) Before repairs, remove the airbag sensor if shocks
are likely to be applied to the sensor during repairs.
(6) Never disassemble and repair the airbag sensor as-
sembly, steering wheel pad or front passenger air-
bag assembly in order to reuse it.
(7) If the airbag sensor assembly, steering wheel pad
or front passenger airbag assembly have been
dropped, or if there are cracks, dents or other de-
fects in the case, bracket or connector, replace
them with new ones.
(8) Do not expose the airbag sensor assembly, steer-
ing wheel pad and front passenger airbag assembly
directly to hot air or flames.
(9) Use a volt/ohmmeter with high impedance (10 kW/V
minimum) for troubleshooting of the electrical cir-
cuit.
(10) Information labels are attached to the periphery of
the SRS components. Follow the instructions on
the notices.
(11) After work on the supplemental restraint system is
completed, check the SRS warning light (See page
RS-1).
(c) SPIRAL CABLE (in Combination Switch)
The steering wheel must be fitted correctly to the steering
column with the spiral cable at the neutral position, other-
wise cable disconnection and other troubles may result.
Refer to of this manual concerning correct steering wheel
installation.

(d) STEERING WHEEL PAD (with Airbag)
(1) When removing the steering wheel pad or handling
a new steering wheel pad, it should be placed with
the pad top surface facing up.
In this case, the twin-lock type connector lock lever
should be in the locked state and care should be
taken to place it so the connector will not be dam-
aged. In addition do not store a steering wheel pad
on top of another one. Storing the pad with its metal-
lic surface facing upward may lead to a serious acci-
dent if the airbag inflates for some reason.
(2) Never measure the resistance of the airbag squib.
(This may cause the airbag to deploy, which is very
dangerous.)
(3) Grease should not be applied to the steering wheel
pad and the pad should not be cleaned with deter-
gents of any kind.
(4) Store the steering wheel pad where the ambient
temperature remains below 93°C (200°F), without
high humidity and away from electrical noise.
(5) When using electric welding, first disconnect the air-
bag connector (yellow color and 2 pins) under the
steering column near the combination switch con-
nector before starting work.
(6) When disposing of a vehicle or the steering wheel
pad alone, the airbag should be deployed using an
SST before disposal (See page RS-1 1).
Carry out the operation in a safe place away from
electrical noise.

(e) FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG ASSEMBLY
(1) Always store a removed or new front passenger air-
bag assembly with the airbag deployment direction
facing up.
Storing the airbag assembly with the airbag deploy-
ment direction facing down could cause a serious
accident if the airbag inflates.
(2) Never measure the resistance of the airbag squib.
(This may cause the airbag deploy, which is very
dangerous.)
(3) Grease should not be applied to the front passen-
ger airbag assembly and the airbag door should not
be cleaned with detergents of any kind.
(4) Store the airbag assembly where the ambient tem-
perature remains below 93°C (200°F), without high
humidity and away from electrical noise.
(5) When using electric welding, first disconnect the air-
bag connector (yellow color and 2 pins) installed on
the glove compartment finish plate at the left side of
the glove compartment before starting work.
(6) When disposing of a vehicle or the airbag assembly
alone, the airbag should be deployed using an SST
before disposal (See page RS-24).
Perform the operation in a safe place away from
electrical noise.
