Inspection Procedure
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Toyota Camry. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- CHECK CLOCK ASSY (FUEL, TAU, TAUB, SPD)
- Remove the clock assy with connector still connected.
- Check voltage (FUEL signal).
- Measure voltage between terminal 5 (FUEL) of clock assy and body ground.
Standard voltage:
STANDARD VOLTAGEFuel Level Voltage (V) F 4.4 +/- 0.1 E 0.6 +/- 0.1 - Check voltage (TAUB signal).
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Measure the voltage between terminal 9 (TAUB) of clock assy connector and body ground.
Standard voltage: 10 - 14 V
- Check voltage (TAU signal).
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Measure the voltage between terminal 7 (TAU) of clock assy connector and body ground.
Standard voltage: 10 - 14 V
- Check signal waveform (TAU signal).
- Connect the oscilloscope to the terminals 1 (GND) and 7 (TAU) of clock assy connector.
- Start engine.
- Check the signal waveform.
WAVEFORM REFERENCEItem Contents Tool setting 10 V/DIV, 100 ms/DV Vehicle condition Engine idle speed - Check voltage (SPD signal).
- Jack up either of the front wheels.
- Shift the shift lever to neutral.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Measure the voltage between terminal 15 (SPD) of clock assy and body ground when front wheel is turning slowly.
Standard voltage:
Voltage is generated intermittently.
Result:
RESULTA OK B TAU signal: NG C FUEL signal: NG D TAUB signal: NG E SPD signal: NG - CHECK COMBINATION METER ASSY
- Remove the combination meter assy with connectors still connected.
- Check voltage (FUEL signal).
- Measure voltage between terminal C8-17 (FUEL) of combination meter assy and body ground.
Standard voltage:
STANDARD VOLTAGEFuel Level Voltage (V) F 4.4 +/- 0.1 E 0.6 +/- 0.1
- NG: CHECK AND REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSY
- OK: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
- INSPECT FUSE (IGN)
- Check the continuity in IGN fuse.
- NG: REPLACE FUSE
- OK: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
- CHECK COMBINATION METER ASSY
- Remove the combination meter assy with connectors still connected.
- Check voltage.
- Jack up either of the front wheels.
- Shift the shift lever to neutral.
- Turn the ignition switch to ON.
- Measure the voltage between terminal C7-36 of combination meter assy and body ground when front wheel is turning slowly.
Standard voltage:
Voltage is generated intermittently.
- NG: CHECK AND REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSY
- OK: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
