Toyota Corolla (E120): Inspection procedure

Hint

:

  • if different dtcs related to different systems that have terminal e2 as the ground terminal are output simultaneously, terminal e2 may be open.
  • 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.

1 Read value of hand–held tester or obd ii scan tool(engine coolant temperature)

  1. Connect the hand–held tester or the obd ii scan tool to the dlc3.
  2.  turn the ignition switch on and push the hand–held tester or the obd ii scan tool main switch on.
  3.  select the item ”diagnosis / enhanced obd ii / data list / all / coolant temp” and read its value displayed on the hand–held tester or the obd ii scan tool.

Temperature: same value as the actual intake air temperature.

Result:

Hint:

Hint

: if there is an open circuit, the hand–held tester or the obd ii scan tool indicates –40 °C (–40°f).

If there is a short circuit, the hand–held tester or the obd ii scan tool indicates 140 °C (284°f) or more.

2 Read value of hand–held tester or obd ii scan tool(check for

2 Read value of hand–held tester or obd ii scan tool(check for open in wire harness)

  1. Disconnect the e2 engine coolant temperature sensor connector.
  2.  connect terminals 1 and 2 of the engine coolant temperature sensor connector on the wire harness side.
  3.  turn the ignition switch on.
  4.  select the item ”diagnosis / enhanced obd ii / data list / all / coolant temp” and read its value displayed on the hand–held tester or the obd ii scan tool.

    Temperature value: 140 °C (284°f) or more

  5.  reconnect the engine coolant temperature sensor connector.

3 Read value of hand–held tester or obd ii scan tool(check for

3 Read value of hand–held tester or obd ii scan tool(check for open in ecm)

  1. Disconnect the e2 engine coolant temperature sensor connector.
  2.  connect the terminals thw and e2 of the e3 ecm connector.

    Hint

    : before checking, do a visual and contact pressure check on the ecm connector.

  3.  turn the ignition switch on.
  4.  select the item ”diagnosis / enhanced obd ii / data list / all / coolant temp” and read its value displayed on the hand–held tester or the obd ii scan tool.

    Temperature value: 140 °C (284°f) or more

  5.  reconnect the engine coolant temperature sensor connector.

Confirm good connection at ecm. If ok, replace ecm

Confirm good connection at ecm. If ok, replace ecm

4 Read value of hand–held tester or obd ii scan tool(check for short in wire harness)

  1. Disconnect the e2 engine coolant temperature sensor connector.
  2.  turn the ignition switch on.
  3.  select the item ”diagnosis / enhanced obd ii / data list / all / coolant temp” and read its value displayed on the hand–held tester or the obd ii scan tool.

    Temperature value: –40 °C (–40°f)

  4.  reconnect the engine coolant temperature sensor connector.

5 Read value of hand–held tester or obd ii scan tool(check for
