Inspection Procedure

NOTE:

In case of using the hand-held tester, start the inspection from step  1 and in case of not using the hand-held tester, start from step  3.

  1. READ VALUE OF OBD II SCAN TOOL OR TOYOTA HAND-HELD TESTER (ECT) 
    1. Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
    2. Check the automatic transmission using DATA LIST.
    1. NG: GO TO ELECTRONIC CONTROLLED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION [ECT] 
    2. OK: GO TO NEXT STEP 
  2. READ VALUE OF OBD II SCAN TOOL OR TOYOTA HAND-HELD TESTER (ODI) 
    1. Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
    2. Check the cruise control ECU using DATA LIST.
    1. OK: PROCEED TO NEXT CIRCUIT INSPECTION SHOWN ON PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE  See PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE .
    2. NG: GO TO NEXT STEP 
  3. INSPECT CRUISE CONTROL ECU ASSEMBLY (ECT, BODY GROUND) 
    1. Connect the ECU connector.
    2. Perform the test drive after engine warms up.
    3. Check voltage between terminal ECT (C15-6) of ECU connector and body ground when OD switch is ON and OFF.
