Toyota Corolla (E120): Inspection procedure
Hint
: read freeze frame data using the hand-held tester or the obd ii scan tool. Freeze frame data records the engine conditions when a malfunction is detected. When troubleshooting, it is useful for determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine was warmed up or not, the air–fuel ratio was lean or rich, etc. At the time of the malfunction.
1 Check other dtc output(in addition to dtc p0101)
- Connect the hand–held tester or the obd ii scan tool to the dlc3.
- turn the ignition switch on and push the hand–held tester or the obd ii scan tool main switch on.
- select the item ”diagnosis / enhanced obd ii / dtc info / current codes”.
- read the dtcs.
Result:

Hint
: if any other codes besides p0101 are output, perform the troubleshooting for those dtcs first.

Symptom confirmation and diagnostic trouble code
Hint:
the diagnostic system in corolla has various functions. The first
function is the diagnostic trouble
code (dtc) check, in which a malfunction in the signal circuits to the ecu
is stored in code form in
the ecu memory. Another function is the input signal check, which checks if

Circuit description
The maf (mass air flow) sensor measures the amount of air flowing through the
throttle valve. The ecm
uses this information ...
On–vehicle inspection
1. Inspect refrigerant pressure with manifold gauge set
this is a method in witch the trouble is located by using
a manifold gauge set. Read the manifold gauge pressure
when the these conditions are established.
Test conditions:
temperature at the air inlet with the switch set
