Toyota Corolla (E120): The ambient temperature does not display
Wiring diagram
Inspection procedure
1 Inspect outer ambient temperature sensor
- Remove cooler (ambient temp. Sensor) thermistor.
- measure resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of cooler
(ambient temp. Sensor) thermistor connector at each temperature.
Resistance:
at 0 c (0 f) : 9.097 – 9.701 KΩ at 25 c (77 f) : 2.725 – 2.865 KΩ
Hint
: as the temperature increases, the resistance decreases.
Resistance:
2 Check harness and connector
Check and replace combination meter assy
Other materials:
Circuit description
A thermistor is built in the engine coolant temperature sensor and changes
the resistance value according
to the engine coolant temperature.
The structure of the sensor and connection to the ecm is the same as those of
the intake air temperature
sensor.
Hint:
if the ecm detects the dtc ...
Registering ID codes
(vehicles with a tire pressure
warning system)
The tire pressure warning valve
and transmitter is equipped with
a unique ID code. When new
tire pressure warning valves and
transmitters are installed, new
ID codes must be registered in
the tire pressure warning computer.
ID codes can be registered by
yourself, but depending on
the driving con ...
Inspection procedure
1 Check fuse(ecu–ig)
Remove the ecu–ig fuse from the instrument panel j/b.
check the continuity of the ecu–ig fuse.
Ok: continuity
2 Inspect terminal voltage(b)
Remove the cruise control ecu assy with connector still
connected.
turn the ignition switch ...
