Toyota Corolla (E120) 2002–2008 Repair Manual / Ignition / Inspection
Toyota Corolla (E120): Inspection
1. Spark plug
Notice
:
- never use a wire brush for cleaning.
- Never attempt to adjust the electrode gap on used spark plug.
- Spark plug should be replaced every 192,000 km (120,000 miles).
- Clean the spark plugs.
Air pressure: below 588 kpa (6.0 Kg/cm2, 85 psi) duration: 20 seconds or less
- Check the spark plug for thread damage and insulator damage.
Hint
: if abnormal, replace the spark plug.
Recommended spark plug:
sk16r11 (denso made)
ifr5a11 (ngk made)
- Check the spark plug electrode gap.
Electrode gap: 1.1 Mm (0.043 In.)
2. Crank position sensor no.1
- using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between terminals.
Resistance:
at cold 835 – 1,400 w
at hot 1,060 – 1,645 w
N
otice
: ”cold” and ”hot” on the table express the temperature of the coils themselves. ”Cold” is from –10 c (14 f) to 50 c (122 f) and ”hot” is from 50 c (122 f) to 100 c (212 f).
Hint
: if the resistance is not as specified, replace the crank position sensor no. 1.
3. Crank position sensor
- using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance between terminals.
Resistance:
at cold 1,630 – 2,740 w
at hot 2,065 – 3,225 w
Notice
: ”cold” and ”hot” on the table express the temperature of the coils themselves. ”Cold” is from –10 c (14 f) to 50 c (122 f) and ”hot” is from 50 c (122 f) to 100 c (212 f).
Hint
: if the resistance is not as specified, replace the crank position sensor.
4. Ignition relay
- Continuity inspection.
- Using an ohmmeter, check that continuity exists between
each terminal.
Specified condition: between terminal 1 and 2 continuity between terminal 3 and 5 no continuity
- using an ohmmeter, check that continuity exists between terminals 3 and 5 when the battery voltage is applied across terminals 1 and 2.

Inspection procedure
1 Check operation(stop lamp swtich assy)
Check that the stop light comes on when the brake pedal is depressed,
and turns off when the brake
pedal is released.
2 Input signal check
See input signal check on page 05–745.
check the indicator light when the brake pedal ...
Stabilizer bar front
Replacement
Hint: components:
1. Remove front wheel
2. Remove front stabilizer link assy lh
Remove the 2 nuts and stabilizer bar link.
Hint:
if the ball joint turns together with the nut, use a hexagon
wrench (6 mm) to hold the stud.
3. Remove front stabilizer link assy rh
Hint:
...
Inspection procedure
1 Check hazard warning signal switch assy
Check the hazard warning switch continuity, as shown in
the illustration and table.
Standard:
2 Check turn signal flasher assy
3 Check wire harness (tvip ecu turn signal flasher)
Disconnect the tvip ecu and turn signal flashe ...
