OBD II scan tool (excluding hand-held tester):

  1. CHECK FUEL PUMP OPERATION (See  ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION  ) 
    1. Check if there is pressure in the fuel inlet hose.

    HINT:

    If there is fuel pressure, you will hear fuel flowing sound.

    OK: PROCEED TO NEXT CIRCUIT INSPECTION SHOWN ON PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE (See  PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE  ) 

    NG: GO TO NEXT STEP. 

  2. CHECK RELAY OPERATION (CIRCUIT OPENING RELAY) 
    1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    2. Connect terminal FC of the ECM connector and the body ground, check the relay operation.

      Standard: 

      Operating sound can be heard from the circuit opening relay.

    OK: REPLACE ECM (See  ECM (3MZ-FE)  ) 

    NG: GO TO NEXT STEP. 

  5. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ECM - CIRCUIT OPENING RELAY, CIRCUIT OPENING RELAY - IGNITION SWITCH) 
    1. Check the harness and the connector between the fuel pump connector and the circuit opening relay.
      1. Disconnect the E6 ECM connector.
      2. Remove the circuit opening relay from the engine room J/B.
      3. Check the resistance between the wire harness side connectors.

        Standard (Check for open):

    2. Check the harness and the connector between the circuit opening relay and the I14 ignition switch connector.
      1. Inspect the IG2 fuse.
        • Remove the IG2 fuse from the engine room J/B.
        • Check for continuity in the IG2 fuse.

          Standard: Continuity 

        • Reinstall the IG2 fuse.
      2. Remove the circuit opening relay from the engine room J/B.
      3. Disconnect the I14 ignition switch connector.
      4. Check the resistance between the wire harness side connectors.

        Standard (Check for open):

    NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: REPLACE ECM (See  ECM (3MZ-FE)  ) 

  6. INSPECT FUEL PUMP 
    1. Inspect fuel pump resistance.
      1. Measure the resistance between terminals 4 and 5.

        Standard: 0.2 to 3.0 Ω at 20°C (68°F) 

    2. Inspect fuel pump operation
      1. Apply battery voltage to both the terminals. Check that the pump operates.
    NOTE:
    • These tests must be done quickly (within 10 seconds) to prevent the coil from burning out.
    • Keep fuel pump as far away from the battery as possible.
    • Always do the switching at the battery side.
