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

After engine is warmed up, conditions (a) to (d) continue for
more than 10 seconds (2 trip detection logic):

Circuit description
When the idle switch is turned on, a signal is sent to the cruise control ecu
assy. The cruise control ecu
assy uses this signal to correct the discrepancy between the throttle valve
position and the actuator position
sensor values to enable accurate cruise control at the set speed. If the idl ...
System description
The ecm uses signals from the vehicle speed sensor and crankshaft position
sensor to detect the actual
gear position (1st, 2nd, 3rd or o/d gear).
Then the ecm compares the actual gear with the shift schedule in the ecm memory
to detect the mechanical
trouble of the shift solenoid valves, th ...
