Toyota Corolla (E120): Ecm/pcm processor
Dtc p0606 ecm/pcm processor
Monitor description
The ecm continuously monitors its internal circuits. This self–check insures that the ecm is functioning properly.
If a malfunction is detected, the ecm will set the appropriate dtc and illuminate the mil.
The two cpus, main and sub cpu inside the ecm, perform continuous mutual monitoring. If there is difference between outputs from the two cpus that deviates from standard level ranges, the ecm concludes that there is a fault and sets a dtc.

Inspection procedure
Hint
: read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester or the obd ii scan tool. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, it is useful for determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine was warmed up or not, the air–fuel ratio was lean or rich, etc. At the time of the malfunction.

Inspection procedure
Hand–held tester:
1 Check operation of stop light
Check if the stop lights go on and off normally when the brake pedal is
depressed and released.
2 Inspect stop light switch assy
Check the resistance between the terminals when the
switch is turned on and off.
Standard:
...
Inspection
1. Cooling fan relay
Inspect the cooling fan relay continuity.
Using an ohmmeter, check that there is continuity
between terminals 1 and 2.
If there is no continuity, replace the relay.
Check that there is no continuity between terminals
3 and 5.
If there is conti ...
Problem symptoms table
Hint:
if a normal code is displayed during the dtc check but the trouble still occurs,
check the circuits for each
symptom in the order given in the charts on the following pages and proceed to
the page given for troubleshooting.
The matrix chart is divided into 3 chapters.
