With Generic Scan Tool
Check the MIL
1. The MIL comes on when the ignition switch is turned ON and the engine is not running.
HINT: If the MIL does not light up, troubleshoot the combination meter.
2. When the engine started, the MIL should go off. If the lamp remains on, the diagnosis system has detected a malfunction or abnormality in the system.
Check the DTC
NOTE:
- If there is no DTC in normal mode, check the 1st trip DTC using. Continuous Test Results function (Mode 7 for SAE J1979) on the OBD II scan tool.
1. Prepare the OBD II scan tool (complying with SAE J1978).
2. Connect the OBD II scan tool to DLC3 under the instrument panel lower pad.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the OBD II scan tool switch ON.
4. Use the OBD II scan tool tester to check the DTCs and freeze frame data note them down. (For operating instructions, see the OBD II scan tool's instruction book.)
5. See Trouble Code Descriptions to confirm the details of the DTCs.
Diagnostic Trouble Code Descriptions
NOTE: When simulating symptoms with an OBD II scan tool (excluding TOYOTA hand-held tester) to check the DTCs, use normal mode. For code on the DTC chart subject to "2 trip detection logic", perform either of the following actions.
* Turn the ignition switch OFF after the symptom is simulated the 1st time. Then repeat the simulation process again. When the problem has been simulated twice, the MIL lights up and the DTCs are recorded in the ECM.
* Check the 1st trip DTC using Mode 7 (Continuous Test Results) for SAE J1979.
