WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Toyota Corolla. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- INSPECT ENGINE SWITCH
- Remove the engine switch. Refer to REMOVAL .
- Apply battery voltage between the terminals of the switch, and check the illumination condition of the switch.NOTE:
- If the positive (+) lead and the negative (-) lead are incorrectly connected, the engine switch indicator will not illuminate.
- If the voltage is too low, the indicator will not illuminate.
OK
Measurement Condition Specified Condition Battery positive (+) → Terminal 11 (SWIL)
Battery negative (-) → Terminal 4 (COM) or 5 (GND)Illuminates Battery positive (+) → Terminal 12 (INDS)
Battery negative (-) → Terminal 4 (COM) or 5 (GND)Illuminates Battery positive (+) → Terminal 13 (INDW)
Battery negative (-) → Terminal 4 (COM) or 5 (GND)Illuminates
NG → See step 3
OK: Go to next step
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ENGINE SWITCH - MAIN BODY ECU AND BODY GROUND)
- Disconnect the E38 switch connector.
- Disconnect the E51 and E52 ECU connectors.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition E38-11 (SWIL) - E51-8 (SWIL) Always Below 1 Ω E38-12 (INDS) - E52-1 (INDS) E38-13 (INDW) - E52-8 (INDW) E38-5 (GND) - Body ground E38-4 (COM) - Body ground E38-11 (SWIL) or E51-8 (SWIL) - Body ground 10 kΩ or higher E38-12 (INDS) or E52-1 (INDS) - Body ground E38-13 (INDW) or E52-8 (INDW) - Body ground
NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK → REPLACE MAIN BODY ECU (INSTRUMENT PANEL JUNCTION BLOCK)
- REPLACE ENGINE SWITCH. Refer to REMOVAL
