Toyota Corolla (E120): 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.
1 Perform simulation test
- Clear the dtc
- shuffle arrangement of the ignition coil and igniters.
Notice
: do not shuffle the connectors.
- perform the simulation test.
Result:
2 Inspect ecm(igt1, igt2, igt3, igt4 and igf signal)
- Inspection using the oscilloscope.
- during cranking or idling, check the waveform between terminals igt1 to igt4 and e1, igf and e1 of the ecm connector.
Standard:
Hint
: correct waveform is as shown in the diagram on the left.
3 Check harness and connector(ignition coil assy – ecm)
- Disconnect the i2, i3, i4 or i5 ignition coil and igniter connector.
- disconnect the e3 ecm connector.
- check the resistance between the wire harness side connectors.
Standard (check for open):
Standard (check for open):
Standard (check for short):
Standard (check for short):
- Reconnect the ecm connector.
- reconnect the ignition coil and igniter connector
4 Inspect ignition coil assy(power source)
- Disconnect the i2, i3, i4 or i5 ignition coil and igniter connector.
- check the resistance between the wire harness side connectors.
Standard (check for open):
- Turn the ignition switch on position.
- measure the voltage between the terminal of the wire harness side connector and body ground.
Standard:
- Reconnect the ignition coil and igniter connector.
5 Check harness and connector(ignition coil assy – ignition switch)
- Disconnect the i2, i3, i4 or i5 ignition coil and igniter connector.
- disconnect the i10 ignition switch connector.
- check the resistance between the wire harness side connectors.
Standard (check for open):
Standard (check for short):
- Reconnect the ignition coil and igniter connector.
- reconnect the ignition switch connector.
Replace ignition coil assy

Monitor description
Dtc p0451, p0452 or p0453 is recorded by the ecm when the vapor pressure
sensor malfunctions.
P0451
The ecm senses pressure in the fuel tank using the vapor pressure sensor. The
ecm supplies the sensor
with a regulated 5 v reference–voltage and the sensor returns a signal voltage

Blind Spot Monitor operation
■ Objects that can be detected while driving
The Blind Spot Monitor uses rear side radar sensors to detect the following
vehicles traveling in adjacent lanes and advises the driver of
the presence of such vehicles via the indicators on the outside rear
view mirrors.
