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 fuse(efi fuse)
- Remove the efi fuse from the engine room r/b.
- check for continuity in the efi fuse.
Standard: continuity
- reinstall the efi fuse.
2 Inspect ecm(batt voltage)
- Measure the voltage between the terminals of the e4 and e6 ecm connectors.
Standard:
3 Check harness and connector(ecm – efi fuse, efi fuse – battery)
- Check the harness and the connector between the efi fuse and ecm.
- Remove the efi fuse from the engine room r/b.
- Disconnect the e6 ecm connector.
- Check the resistance between the wire harness side connectors.
Standard (check for open):
Standard (check for short):
- Reconnect the ecm connector.
- Reinstall the efi fuse.
- check the harness and the connector between the efi fuse and battery.
- Remove the efi fuse from the engine room r/b.
- Disconnect the battery positive terminal.
- Check the resistance between the wire harness side connectors.
Standard (check for open):

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 ...
