Toyota Corolla (E120): Fail–safe chart
If any of the following codes is recorded, the ecm enters the fail–safe mode.

Check for intermittent problems
Hand–held tester only:
by putting the vehicle’s ecm in the check mode, the 1 trip detection logic is possible instead of the 2 trip detection logic, and the sensitivity to detect faults is increased. This makes it easier to detect intermittent problems.
- Clear the dtcs .
- set the check mode .
- perform a simulation test .
- check the connector and terminal .
- wiggle the harness and connector

Circuit description
A flat type knock sensor (non–resonant type) has the structure that can
detect the vibration in a wider band
of frequency from about 6 khz to 15 khz and has the following features.
Knock sensors are fitted on the cylinder block to detect the engine knocking.
The sensor contains a piezoele ...
Coolant
Replacement
1. Drain coolant
Caution:
to avoid the danger of being burned, do not remove the radiator
cap while the engine and radiator are still hot, as fluid
and steam can be blown out under pressure.
remove the radiator cap.
loosen the radiator and engine drain plugs, a ...
