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 Read output dtc

  1. Clear the dtc.
  2.  warm up the engine.
  3.  run the engine at 3,000 rpm for 10 seconds or more.
  4.  connect the hand–held tester or the obd ii scan tool to the dlc3.
  5.  turn the ignition switch on and push the hand–held tester or the obd ii scan tool main switch on.
  6.  select the item ”diagnosis / enhanced obd ii / dtc info / current codes”.
  7.  read the dtcs.
