Toyota Corolla (E120): Check short circuit

  1. If the wire harness is ground shorted as shown in fig. 5, Locate the section by conducting a resistance check with the body ground in step (b).

  1. Check the resistance with the body ground.
  1.  Disconnect connectors a and c and measure the resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of connector a and the body ground.

    Resistance: 10 kΩ or higher

Hint

: measure the resistance while lightly shaking the wire harness vertically and horizontally. In the case of fig. 6: Between terminal 1 of connector a and body ground " below 1 Ω

between terminal 2 of connector a and body ground " 10 kΩ

or higher therefore, the cause is a short circuit between terminal 1 of connector a and terminal 1 of connector c.

  1. Disconnect connector b and measure the resistance between terminal 1 of connector a and the body ground, and terminal 1 of connector b2 and the body ground.

    In the case of fig. 7: Between terminal 1 of connector a and body ground " 10 kw or higher between terminal 1 of connector b2 and body ground " below 1 w therefore, the cause is a short circuit between terminal 1 of connector b2 and terminal 1 of connector c.

    Fuel information
    You must only use unleaded gasoline. Select octane rating of 87 (Research Octane Number 91) or higher. Use of unleaded gasoline with an octane rating lower than 87 may result in engine knocking. Persistent knocking can lead to engine damage. At minimum, the gasoline you use should meet the specifi ...
