Section 636 (Cruise Control System - Diagnostics): Pre-Check

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.

DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM

Description
ECM controls the function of the cruise control on a vehicle.

Data on the cruise control and DTC can be read from DLC3 on the vehicle. If the CRUISE MAIN indicator does not come on after the DTC check, there is a malfunction on the cruise control.

Use the hand-held tester or SST to check and solve the problem.

Check the DLC3.

The vehicle's ECM uses ISO 9141-2 for communication. The terminal arrangement of DLC3 complies with SAE J1962 and matches the ISO 9141-2 format.

SPECIFICATION TERMINAL CONNECTION

Terminal No.	Connection/Specified Condition	Condition
4	Chassis Ground <--> Body Ground/1 Ω or less	Always
7	Bus Line/Pulse Generation	During Communication
16	Battery Positive <--> Body Ground/9 ~ 14 V	Always

HINT:

If the display shows "UNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLE" as connecting the hand-held tester to the DLC3 and turn the ignition switch ON, there is a problem either on the vehicle or on the tool.

If communication is normal when the tool is connected to another vehicle, inspect DLC3 on the original vehicle.
If communication is still not possible when the tool is connected to another vehicle, the problem is probably in the tool itself, so consult the Service Department listed in the tool's instruction manual.

Check the indicator.
1. Turn the ignition switch ON.
2. Check that the CRUISE MAIN indicator light comes on when the cruise control main switch is turned on, and that the indicator light goes off when the main switch is turned OFF.
HINT:

If the indicator check result is not normal, proceed to troubleshooting (See HOW TO PROCEED WITH TROUBLESHOOTING ) for the combination meter section.

Check the DTC.
HINT:

If a malfunction occurs in the vehicle speed sensors or the stop lamp switch, etc. during cruise control driving, ECU actuates AUTO CANCEL of the cruise control and turns on and off the CRUISE MAIN indicator light to inform the driver of a malfunction. At the same time, the malfunction is stored in the memory as a diagnostic trouble code.

Check the output of DTC using diagnosis check wire.
1. Turn the ignition switch ON.
2. Using SST, connect terminal Tc and CG of DLC3.
  SST 09843-18040
3. Read the DTC on the CRUISE MAIN indicator light.

HINT:

If DTC is not indicated, inspect the cruise main indicator light circuit or the diagnosis circuit (See CRUISE MAIN INDICATOR LIGHT CIRCUIT and DIAGNOSIS CIRCUIT ). As an example, the blinking pattern of normal code and code 52 are shown in the illustration.

USING HAND-HELD TESTER
1. Hook up the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
2. Monitor the ECU data by following the prompts on the tester screen.
HINT:

The hand-held tester has a "Snapshot" function which records the monitored data.

Refer to the hand-held tester operator's manual for further details.

DATA LIST

HINT:

Following to the DATA LIST displayed by the hand-held tester, you can read the value of the switch, sensor, actuator and so on without parts removal. Reading the DATA LIST as a first step of troubleshooting is one of the method to shorten the labor time.

Connect the Hand-held tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch ON.
According to the display on the tester, read the "DATA LIST".
