Engine Does Not Start: Procedure

  1. CHECK FOR DTC 
    1. Delete the DTCs.

      HINT: 

      After all DTCs are cleared, check if the trouble occurs again 5 seconds after the engine switch is turned on (IG).

    2. Check for DTCs again.

      OK

      No DTC is output.

    NG → GO TO DTC CHART 

    OK: Go to next step 

  2. CHECK BASIC FUNCTION 
    1. When there is fuel in the fuel tank, the key is inside the vehicle and the shift lever is on P, check that depressing the brake pedal causes the engine to start.

      OK

      Engine starts.

    NG → See step   3 

    OK → END 

  3. CHECK SWITCH CONDITION 
    1. When the key is inside the vehicle and the shift lever is on P, check that depressing the brake pedal while pressing the engine switch causes the power source mode to change as follows.

      OK

      off → on (ACC) → on (IG) → off

    NG → GO TO POWER SOURCE MODE DOES NOT CHANGE 

    OK: Go to next step 

  4. CHECK BASIC FUNCTION 
    1. When there is fuel in the fuel tank, the key is inside the vehicle and the shift lever is on P, check that depressing the brake pedal and pressing the engine switch cranks the engine.

      OK

      Engine cranks.

    NG → See step   5 

    OK → GO TO ENGINE IMMOBILISER SYSTEM 

  5. CHECK STEERING LOCK SYSTEM 
    1. When the engine switch is on (ACC), check that the steering lock can be released.

      OK

      Steering lock can be released.

    NG → GO TO STEERING LOCK SYSTEM 

    OK: Go to next step 

  6. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (POWER SOURCE CONTROL ECU - PNP SWITCH)

    1. Disconnect the K73 ECU connector.
    2. Disconnect the E77 switch connector.
    3. Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.

      Standard resistance

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      K73-17 (STR1) - E77-4 Below 1 Ω
      K73-17 (STR1) or E77-4 - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  7. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (ENGINE ROOM R/B NO. 2 - POWER SOURCE CONTROL ECU)

    1. Remove the ST CUT relay from the engine room R/B No. 2.
    2. Disconnect the K73 ECU connector.
    3. Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.

      Standard resistance

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      Engine room R/B No. 2 ST CUT relay terminal 3 - K73-15 (STR2) Below 1 Ω
      Engine room R/B No. 2 ST CUT relay terminal 3 or K73-15 (STR2) - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher

      Standard resistance

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      Engine room R/B No. 2 ST CUT relay terminal 2- K73-35 (IG2D) Below 1 Ω
      Engine room R/B No. 2 ST CUT relay terminal 2 or K73-35 (IG2D) - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  8. CHECK WIRE HARNESS (POWER SOURCE CONTROL ECU - ECM)

    1. Disconnect the K73 ECU connector.
    2. Disconnect the A6 ECM connector.
    3. Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.

      Standard resistance

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      K73-28 (SKSW) - A6-31 (KSW) Below 1 Ω
      K73-28 (SKSW) or A6-31 (KSW) - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  9. CHECK POWER SOURCE CONTROL ECU

    GTY105731Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002
    1. Reconnect the K73 ECU connector.
    2. Measure the voltage of the ECU.

      Standard voltage

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      K73-39 (STSW) - Body ground Engine switch on (IG) 10 to 14 V

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR 

    OK → GO TO SFI SYSTEM
