VC Output Circuit: Procedure

  1. CHECK MIL 
    1. Check that the MIL lights up when turning the ignition switch to ON.

      OK

      MIL lights up

    NG → See step   2 

    OK → END 

  2. CHECK CONNECTION BETWEEN TECHSTREAM AND ECM 
    1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and Techstream on.
    3. Check the communication between the Techstream and ECM.

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      Communication is not possible A
      Communication is possible B

    B → See step   8 

    A: Go to next step 

  3. INSPECT ECM (VC VOLTAGE)

    1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    2. Measure the voltage of the ECM connector.

      Standard Voltage

      Voltage is not 5.5 V

    NEXT: Go to next step 

  4. CHECK MIL (THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR) 
    1. Disconnect the T26 throttle body connector.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    3. Check the MIL.

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      MIL does not illuminate A
      MIL illuminates B

    B → See step   9 

    A: Go to next step 

  5. CHECK MIL (CANISTER PUMP MODULE) 
    1. Disconnect the C12 canister pump module connector.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    3. Check the MIL.

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      MIL does not illuminate A
      MIL illuminates B

    B → REPLACE CANISTER 

    A: Go to next step 

  6. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ECM - BODY GROUND) 
    Fig 2: Disconnecting E2 ECM Connector Terminals
    GTY123561Courtesy of © TOYOTA, LICENSE AGREEMENT TMS1002
    1. Disconnect the T26 throttle body connector.
    2. Disconnect the C12 canister pump module connector.
    3. Disconnect the E2 ECM connector.
    4. Measure the resistance of the wire harness connector.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      E2-29 (VC) - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK → See step   7 

  7. REPLACE ECM. Refer to  REMOVAL 
  8. GO TO MIL CIRCUIT. Refer to  MIL Circuit  
  9. REPLACE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY. Refer to  REMOVAL
