Toyota Corolla Cross: How To Proceed With Troubleshooting
CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
PRECAUTIONS WHEN TROUBLESHOOTING
NOTICE:
(a) CAN communication DTCs are output for CAN main bus and CAN branch malfunctions
as well as for internal malfunctions or power source malfunctions of ECUs or sensors
for systems using CAN communication. Therefore, when DTCs for internal malfunctions
or power source malfunctions of corresponding systems are output at the same time
as CAN communication DTCs, troubleshoot according to the internal malfunction and
power source malfunction DTCs.
(b) The DLC3 inspection can only be used to detect malfunctions in the diagnosis
bus (the bus which connects the DLC3 to the central gateway ECU (network gateway
ECU)).
(c) An open in a branch for ECUs or sensors that are connected to the CAN main
bus can be checked by performing a CAN bus check using the GTS. (This inspection
is possible when all the main bus lines are normal.)
(d) In the event of communication error history in the central bus, identify
the ECUs or sensors which were not communicating by analyzing the combination of
stored DTCs or by performing Communication Bus Check (Detail).
(e) If a sub bus has a communication error, the gateway function equipped ECU
(sub bus monitor ECU) detects it and stores DTCs related to the error.
HINT:
On the GTS, gateway function equipped ECUs display DTCs for ECUs connected to
the sub bus.
(f) When an open circuit is detected, before disconnecting related connectors
for inspection, push in on the connector body to check that the connector is not
loose or disconnected.
(g) When a connector is disconnected, check that the terminals and connector
body are not cracked, deformed or corroded.
PROCEDURE
1.
|
VEHICLE BROUGHT TO WORKSHOP
|
HINT:
- If the ignition switch can be turned to ON (the power source mode can be
changed to on) when the vehicle is brought in for repair, check for DTCs and
check the illumination condition of the indicators in the combination meter
assembly and the basic operation of the vehicle (such as steering operation)
promptly.
- Do not turn the ignition switch off until the inspection of the vehicle
is finished, as some fail-safe functions are canceled when the ignition switch
is turned off.
- If the ignition switch cannot be turned to ON (the power source mode cannot
be changed to on) even though the auxiliary battery voltage is normal, repair
this malfunction before performing troubleshooting.

- When the ignition switch cannot be turned to ON, data can be read from ECUs
that can communicate with the ignition switch off by connecting the GTS to the
vehicle and turning a courtesy light switch on and off at intervals of 1.5 seconds
or less until communication starts.

CUSTOMER PROBLEM ANALYSIS
|
HINT:
- When troubleshooting, confirm that the problem symptoms have been accurately
identified. Preconceptions should be discarded in order to make an accurate
judgment. To clearly understand what the problem symptoms are, it is extremely
important to ask the customer about the problem and the conditions at the time
the malfunction occurred.
- Ask the customer if the vehicle is/was equipped with additional devices
such as a theft deterrent device or monitor. (If equipped, explain to the customer
that the additional devices will be removed before performing troubleshooting
as the malfunction cannot be checked properly.)
- Examples of points to be confirmed are shown below.
(a) It is useful to confirm the symptoms and the conditions in which the vehicle
was operating at the time when a malfunction occurred. This helps to narrow down
the malfunctioning part.
HINT:
- What was affected (system, part or meter warning indicators)
- What happened (details of the malfunction)
- When (occurrence date and time, frequency and if it recurs or not)
- Under what kind of situation did the problem occur (driving and operating
condition at the occurrence and weather)
- Road type or condition (city, suburb, paved road, unpaved road, highway,
etc.)
- Conditions when vehicle returned to normal (ignition switch was turned off,
etc.)

(a) Measure the auxiliary battery voltage with the ignition switch off.
Standard Voltage:
11 to 14 V
If the voltage is below 11 V, recharge or replace the auxiliary battery before
proceeding to the next step.
HINT:
If the ignition switch cannot be turned to ON, measure the voltage of the auxiliary
battery. If it is below 11 V, perform inspection after replacing or recharging the
auxiliary battery.

HINT:
Read the GTS operator's manual before use.
Click here
(a) Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
(c) Turn the GTS on.
(d) Check that the GTS and ECUs can communicate with the ignition switch ON.
HINT:
- ECUs and sensors are not displayed on the "Communication Bus Check" screen
when the GTS cannot communicate with the vehicle.
- If communication between the GTS and ECUs is not possible, either the GTS
or vehicle has a malfunction.
- If communication between the GTS and ECUs is still not possible even when
the GTS is connected to another vehicle, the GTS has a malfunction. Perform
the self tests described in the GTS operator's manual. (The GTS may be malfunctioning
or its battery may be discharged.)

BUS INSPECTION (CHECK CONNECTED ECUS AND SENSORS USING GTS)
|
(a) Based on the vehicle equipment and specifications, confirm the systems that
use CAN communication.
Click here
(b) Select "CAN Bus Check" from the screen on the GTS.
CAN Bus Check
(c) Observe the screen for approximately 2 minutes to check the ECUs and sensors
displayed on the screen.
(d) Check for ECUs or sensors displayed as not communicating on the "Communication
Bus Check" screen (indicated by a red background color or a background color that
changes from red to yellow).
NOTICE:
- A sub bus monitoring ECU outputs DTCs for its respective ECUs and sensors.
Identify the malfunctioning ECU or sensor using the output DTCs.
- ECUs or sensors that are not installed to the vehicle will not be displayed.
Do not mistake these for ECUs or sensors that are not communicating.
- When using the combo box, it may be possible to select a sub bus from the
drop down list that does not have any connected ECUs or sensors. This is not
a malfunction and occurs when there is no optional device connected to a sub
bus which is monitored by a sub bus monitoring ECU (gateway function equipped
ECU).
HINT:
- For details on how to read the "Communication Bus Check" screen, refer to
Description of "Communication Bus Check" screen.
Click here
- If there is an ECU or sensor whose connection status changes intermittently
while checking the "Communication Bus Check" screen, there may be an open circuit
in one of the wires of a branch line of an ECU or sensor in the bus. If an open
occurs in one of the wires of a CAN branch line, it may interfere with the communication
of other ECUs or sensors resulting in an incorrect state being displayed.
- The central gateway ECU (network gateway ECU) displays the connection status
of ECUs and sensors connected to the central bus on the GTS.
- Sub bus monitoring ECUs display the connection status of ECUs and sensors
connected to their respective sub bus on the GTS.
- If a CAN commutation DTC is output for an ECU connected to the sub bus,
refer to the corresponding diagnostic procedure.

CHECK DTC (HEALTH CHECK)
|
(a) Using the GTS, perform Health Check to read current and history DTCs and
record them.
NOTICE:
- CAN communication DTCs are output when there is an open or short in any
of the communication lines. Any problems with the power source of a corresponding
ECU or sensor, or problems in the ECU or sensor itself also cause these DTCs
to be output.
- If a CAN communication line connector is disconnected with the ignition
switch ON or ACC, the ECUs of the corresponding system and related systems store
a DTC.
HINT:
If an open occurs in just one of the wires of a CAN branch line, DTCs which are
not related to malfunctioning parts may be output (DTCs may be displayed randomly),
or a message indicating a communication error may be displayed.
