INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. CHECK DTC OUTPUT

(a) Recheck for DTC Engine Immobilizer System.

HINT
If any DTCs other than DTC B279A are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.

Result:





B -- GO TO DTC CHART Engine Immobilizer System
A -- Continue to next step.

2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (IMMOBILIZER CODE ECU - ECM)

(a) for 2GR-FSE:

(1) Disconnect the K58 ECU and A7 ECM connectors.





(2) Measure the resistance and voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard resistance:





Standard voltage:





(b) for 1UR-FSE:

(1) Disconnect the K58 ECU and A7 ECM connectors.





(2) Measure the resistance and voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard resistance:





Standard voltage:





NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- Continue to next step.

3. CHECK ECM (INPUT)

(a) for 2GR-FSE:

(1) Reconnect the K58 ECU and A7 ECM connectors.

(2) Measure the waveform.





Waveform (Reference):





OK:

Waveform is output normally (see illustration).

(b) for 1UR-FSE:

(1) Reconnect the K58 ECU and A7 ECM connectors.

(2) Measure the waveform.





Waveform (Reference):





OK:

Waveform is output normally (see illustration).

NG -- CHECK IMMOBILIZER CODE ECU (POWER SOURCE AND BODY GROUND)

OK -- REPLACE IMMOBILIZER CODE ECU

4. CHECK IMMOBILIZER CODE ECU (POWER SOURCE AND BODY GROUND)

(a) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.





Standard voltage:





Result:





C -- REPLACE ECM Removal

B -- REPLACE ECM Removal

A -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
