2. SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION AND DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHECK
The diagnostic system in the TOYOTA T100 fulfills various functions. The first function is the Diagnostic
Trouble Code Check in which a malfunction in the signal circuits to the ECU is stored in code in the ECU
memory at the time of occurrence, to be output by the technician during troubleshooting. Another function
is the Input Signal Check which checks if the signals from various switches are sent to the ECU correctly.
By using these check functions, the problem areas can be narrowed down quickly and troubleshooting can
be performed effectively. Diagnostic functions are incorporated in the following systems in the TOYOTA
T100.

Check
In diagnostic trouble code check, it is very important to determine whether the problem indicated by the diag-
nostic trouble code is still occurring or occurred in the past but returned to normal at present. In addition,
it must be checked in the problem symptom check whether the malfunction indicated by the diagnostic
trouble code is directly related to the problem symptom or not. For this reason, the diagnostic trouble codes
should be checked before and after the symptom confirmation to determine the current conditions, as shown
in the table below. If this is not done, it may, depending on the case, result in unnecessary troubleshooting
for normally operating systems, thus making it more difficult to locate the problem, or in repairs not pertinent
to the problem. Therefore, always follow the procedure in correct order and perform the diagnostic trouble
code check.

If a diagnostic trouble code was
displayed in the initial diagnostic
trouble code check, it indicates
that the trouble may have occurred
in a wire harness or connector in
that circuit in the past. Therefore,
check the wire harness and con-
nectors (See page IN−26).

3. SYMPTOM SIMULATION
The most difficult case in troubleshooting is when there are no problem symptoms occurring. In such cases,
a thorough customer problem analysis must be carried out, then simulate the same or similar conditions and
environment in which the problem occurred in the customer’s vehicle. No matter how much experience a
technician has, or how skilled he may be, if he proceeds to troubleshoot without confirming the problem
symptoms he will tend to overlook something important in the repair operation and make a wrong guess
somewhere, which will only lead to a standstill. For example, for a problem which only occurs when the en-
gine is cold, or for a problem which occurs due to vibration caused by the road during driving, etc., the prob-
lem can never be determined so long as the symptoms are confirmed with the engine hot condition or the
vehicle at a standstill. Since vibration, heat or water penetration (moisture) is likely cause for problem which
is difficult to reproduce, the symptom simulation tests introduced here are effective measures in that the ex-
ternal causes are applied to the vehicle in a stopped condition.
Important Points in the Symptom Simulation Test:
In the symptom simulation test, the problem symptoms should of course be confirmed, but the problem area
or parts must also be found out. To do this, narrow down the possible problem circuits according to the symp-
toms before starting this test and connect a tester beforehand. After that, carry out the symptom simulation
test, judging whether the circuit being tested is defective or normal and also confirming the problem symp-
toms at the same time. Refer to the matrix chart of problem symptoms for each system to narrow down the
possible causes of the symptom.

HEAT METHOD: When the problem seems to occur when the suspect area is heated. 2
NOTICE:
(1) Do not heat to more than 60 °C (140 °F). (Temperature
is limited not to damage the components.)
(2) Do not apply heat directly to parts in the ECU.
3 WATER SPRINKLING METHOD:
NOTICE:
(1) Never sprinkle water directly into the engine
compartment, but indirectly change the temperature and
humidity by applying water spray onto the radiator front
surface.
(2) Never apply water directly onto the electronic
components.
4 OTHER: When a malfunction seems to occur when electrical load is excessive.When the malfunction seems to occur on a rainy day or in a
high−humidity condition. Heat the component that is the likely cause of the malfunction
with a hair dryer or similar object. Check to see if the malfunction
occurs.
Sprinkle water onto the vehicle and check to see if the malfunc-
tion occurs.
Turn on all electrical loads including the heater blower, head
lights, rear window defogger, etc. and check to see if the mal-
function occurs.ON (Service hint)
If a vehicle is subject to water leakage, the leaked water may
contaminate the ECU. When testing a vehicle with a water leak-
age problem, special caution must be taken.

HOW TO USE THE DIAGNOSTIC
CHART AND INSPECTION
PROCEDURE
1. CONNECTOR CONNECTION AND TERMINAL IN-
SPECTION
For troubleshooting, diagnostic trouble code charts or
problem symptom table are provided for each circuit with
detailed inspection procedures on the following pages.
When all the component parts, wire harnesses and con-
nectors of each circuit except the ECU are found to be
normal in troubleshooting, then it is determined that the
problem is in the ECU. Accordingly, if diagnosis is per-
formed without the problem symptoms occurring,refer to
step 8 to replace the ECU, even if the problem is not in the
ECU. So always confirm that the problem symptoms are
occurring, or proceed with inspection while using the
symptom simulation method.
The instructions ”Check wire harness and connector” and
”Check and replace ECU” which appear in the inspection
procedure, are common and applicable to all diagnostic
trouble codes. Follow the procedure outlined below
whenever these instructions appear.
OPEN CIRCUIT:
This could be due to and a disconnected wire harness, faulty
contact in the connector, a connector terminal pulled out, etc.
HINT:
It is rarely the case that a wire is broken in the middle of
it. Most cases occur at the connector. In particular, care-
fully check the connectors of sensors and actuators.
Faulty contact could be due to rusting of the connector
terminals, to foreign materials entering terminals or a de-
formation of connector terminals between the male and
female terminals of the connector. Simply disconnecting
and reconnecting the connectors once changes the
condition of the connection and may result in a return to
normal operation. Therefore, in troubleshooting, if no ab-
normality is found in the wire harness and connector
check, but the problem disappears after the check, then
the cause is considered to be in the wire harness or con-
nectors.
SHORT CIRCUIT:
This could be due to a connect between the wire harness and
the body ground or to a short occurred inside the switch etc.
HINT:
When there is a short circuit between the wire harness and body
ground, check thoroughly whether the wire harness is caught
in the body or is clamped properly.

2. CONTINUITY CHECK (OPEN CIRCUIT CHECK)
(a) Disconnect the connectors at both ECU and sensor
sides.
(b) Measure the resistance between the applicable terminals
of the connectors.
HINT:
Measure the resistance while lightly shaking the wire har-
ness vertically and horizontally.
When tester probes are inserted into a connector, insert
the probes from the back. For waterproof connectors in
which the probes cannot be inserted from the back, be
careful not to bend the terminals when inserting the tester
probes.
3. RESISTANCE CHECK (SHORT CIRCUIT CHECK)
(a) Disconnect the connectors on both ends.
(b) Measure the resistance between the applicable terminals
of the connectors and body ground. Be sure to carry out
this check on the connectors on both ends.
Resistance: 1 MΩ or higher
HINT:
Measure the resistance while lightly shaking the wire harness
vertically and horizontally.
4. VISUAL CHECK AND CONTACT PRESSURE CHECK
(a) Disconnect the connectors at both ends.
(b) Check for rust or foreign material, etc. in the terminals of
the connectors.
(c) Check crimped portions for looseness or damage and
check if the terminals are secured in lock portion.
HINT:
The terminals should not come out when pulled lightly.
(d) Prepare a test male terminal and insert it in the female ter-
minal, then pull it out.
NOTICE:
When testing a gold−plated female terminal, always use a
gold−plated male terminal.
HINT:
When the test terminal is pulled out more easily than others,
there may be poor contact in that section.
