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

Check mode procedure
Hint:
hand–held tester only:
compared to the normal mode, the check mode has more sensing
ability to detect malfunctions. Furthermore, the same diagnostic
items which are detected in the normal mode can also be
detected in the check mode.
