HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT ECU CONTROLLED SYSTEMS
GENERAL INFORMATION
A large number of ECU controlled systems are used in CAMRY. In general, the ECU controlled system is
considered to be a very intricate system requiring high level of technical knowledge and expert skill to trou-
bleshoot. The fact is, however, that if you proceed to inspect the circuits one by one, troubleshooting of these
systems is not complex. If you have adequate understanding of the system and basic knowledge of electric-
ity, accurate diagnosis and necessary repair can be performed to locate and fix the problem. This manual
is designed through emphasis of the above standpoint to help service technicians perform an accurate and
effective troubleshooting, and is compiled for the following major ECU controlled systems.
The troubleshooting procedure and how to make use of it are described on the following pages.

FOR USING OBDII SCAN TOOL OR HAND–HELD TESTER
HINT:
Before using the scan tool or tester, the scan tool’s instruction book or tester’s operator manual should
be read thoroughly.
If the scan tool or tester cannot communicate with the ECU controlled systems when you have con-
nected the cable of the tester to the DLC3 with the ignition switch and tester turned ON, there is a prob-
lem on the vehicle side or tester side.
(1) If the communication is normal when the tester is connected to another vehicle, inspect the diag-
nosis data link line (Busline) or ECU power circuit of the vehicle.
(2) If the communication is still impossible when the tester is connected to another vehicle, the prob-
lem is probably in the tester itself, so perform the Self Test procedures outlined in the Tester Oper-
ator’s Manual.
