(k) Care must be taken when jacking up and supporting thevehicle. Be sure to lift and support the vehicle at the prop-er locations (See page IN–8). Cancel the parking brake on the level place and
shift the transmission in Neutral (or N position). When jacking up the front wheels of the vehicle at
first place stoppers behind the rear wheels. When jacking up the rear wheels of the vehicle at
first place stoppers before the front wheels. When either the front or rear wheels only should be
jacked up, set rigid racks and place stoppers in frontand behind the other wheels on the ground.
After the vehicle is jacked up, be sure to support iton rigid racks . It is extremely dangerous to do anywork on a vehicle raised on a jack alone, even fora small job that can be finished quickly.
(l) Observe the following precautions to avoid damage to thefollowing parts:(1) Do not open the cover or case of the ECU unless
absolutely necessary. (If the IC terminals aretouched, the IC may be destroyed by static electric-ity.)
(2) To disconnect vacuum hoses, pull off the end, notthe middle of the hose.
(3) To pull apart electrical connectors, pull on the con-nector itself, not the wires.
(4) Be careful not to drop electrical components, suchas sensors or relays. If they are dropped on a hardfloor, they should be replaced and not reused.
(5) When steam cleaning an engine, protect the elec-tronic components, air filter and emission–relatedcomponents from water.
(6) Never use an impact wrench to remove or installtemperature switches or temperature sensors.

(7) When checking continuity at the wire connector, in-sert the tester probe carefully to prevent terminalsfrom bending.
(8) When using a vacuum gauge, never force the hoseonto a connector that is too large. Use a step–downadapter for adjustment. Once the hose has beenstretched, it may leak air.
(m) Installation and removal of vacuum hose:(1) When disconnecting vacuum hoses, use tags to
identify how they should be reconnected to.(2) After completing a job, double check that the vacu-
um hoses are properly connected. A label under thehood shows the proper layout.
(n) Unless otherwise stated, all resistance is measured at anambient temperature of 20°C (68°F). Because the resis-tance may be outside specifications if measured at hightemperatures immediately after the vehicle has been run-ning, measurement should be made when the engine hascooled down.

FOR ALL OF VEHICLESPRECAUTION1. FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH SRS AIRBAG AND
SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER(a) The MR2 is equipped with an SRS (Supplemental Re-
straint System), such as the driver airbag, front passen-ger airbag assembly and seat belt pretensioner.Failure to carry out service operations in the correct se-quence could cause the supplemental restraint system tounexpectedly deploy during servicing, possibly leading toa serious accident.Further, if a mistake is made in servicing the supplementalrestraint system, it is possible the SRS may fail to operatewhen required. Before servicing (including removal orinstallation of parts, inspection or replacement), be sureto read the following items carefully, then follow the cor-rect procedure described in this manual.
(b) GENERAL NOTICE(1) Malfunction symptoms of the supplemental re-
straint system are difficult to confirm, so the diag-nostic trouble codes become the most importantsource of information when troubleshooting. Whentroubleshooting the supplemental restraint system,always inspect the diagnostic trouble codes beforedisconnecting the battery (See page DI–237).
(2) Work must be started after 90 seconds from thetime the ignition switch is turned to the ”LOCK” posi-tion and the negative (–) terminal cable is discon-nected from the battery.(The supplemental restraint system is equippedwith a back–up power source so that if work isstarted within 90 seconds of disconnecting the neg-ative (–) terminal cable from the battery, the SRSmay deploy.)When the negative (–) terminal cable is discon-nected from the battery, memory of the clock andaudio systems will be cancelled. So before startingwork, make a record of the contents memorized bythe each memory system. Then when work is fin-ished, reset the clock and audio systems as before.To avoid erasing the memory of each memory sys-tem, never use a back–up power supply from anoth-er battery.

HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT ECU CONTROLLED SYSTEMSGENERAL INFORMATIONA large number of ECU controlled systems are used in the MR2. In general, the ECU controlled system isconsidered to be a very intricate system requiring a high level of technical knowledge and expert skill to trou-bleshoot. However, the fact is that if you proceed to inspect the circuits one by one, troubleshooting of thesesystems is not complex. If you have adequate understanding of the system and a basic knowledge of elec-tricity, accurate diagnosis and necessary repair can be performed to locate and fix the problem. This manualis designed through emphasis of the above standpoint to help service technicians perform accurate and ef-fective troubleshooting, and is compiled for the following major ECU controlled systems:The troubleshooting procedure and how to make use of it are described on the following pages.

2. Anti–Lock Brake System DI–152
3. Electro–Hiydraulic Power Steering DI–200
4. Supplemental Restraint System DI–235
5. Engine Immobiliser System DI–335
6. Body Control System DI–354
FOR USING OBD II SCAN TOOL OR TOYOTA HAND–HELD TESTER Before using the scan tool or tester, the scan tool’s instruction book or tester’s operator manual should
be read thoroughly. If the scan tool or tester cannot communicate with ECU controlled systems when you have connected
the cable of the scan tool or tester to DLC3, turned the ignition switch ON and operated the scan tool,there is a problem on the vehicle side or tool side.(1) If communication is normal when the tool is connected to another vehicle, inspect the diagnosis
data link line (Busline) or ECU power circuit of the vehicle.(2) If communication is still not possible when the tool is connected to another vehicle, the problem
is probably in the tool itself, so perform the Self Test procedures outline in the Tester Operator’sManual.

1. CUSTOMER PROBLEM ANALYSISIn troubleshooting, the problem symptoms must be confirmed accurately and all preconceptions must becleared away in order to give an accurate judgment. To ascertain just what the problem symptoms are, it isextremely important to ask the customer about the problem and the conditions at the time it occurred.Important Point in the Problem Analysis:The following 5 items are important points in the problem analysis. Past problems which are thought to beunrelated and the repair history, etc. may also help in some cases, so as much information as possible shouldbe gathered and its relationship with the problem symptoms should be correctly ascertained for referencein troubleshooting. A customer problem analysis table is provided in Diagnostics section for each systemfor your use.

2. SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION AND DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHECKThe diagnostic system in the MR2 fulfills various functions. The first function is the Diagnostic Trouble CodeCheck in which a malfunction in the signal circuits to the ECU is stored in code in the ECU memory at thetime of occurrence, to be output by the technician during troubleshooting. Another function is the Input SignalCheck which checks if the signals from various switches are sent to the ECU correctly.By using these check functions, the problem areas can be narrowed down quickly and troubleshooting canbe performed effectively. Diagnostic functions are incorporated in the following systems in the MR2.

6. Body Control System
In diagnostic trouble code check, it is very important to determine whether the problem indicated by the diag-nostic trouble code is still occurring or occurred in the past but returned to normal at present. In addition,it must be checked in the problem symptom check whether the malfunction indicated by the diagnostictrouble code is directly related to the problem symptom or not. For this reason, the diagnostic trouble codesshould be checked before and after the symptom confirmation to determine the current conditions, as shownin the table below. If this is not done, it may, depending on the case, result in unnecessary troubleshootingfor normally operating systems, thus making it more difficult to locate the problem, or in repairs not pertinentto the problem. Therefore, always follow the procedure in correct order and perform the diagnostic troublecode check.

3. SYMPTOM SIMULATIONThe most difficult case in troubleshooting is when there are no problem symptoms occurring. In such cases,a thorough customer problem analysis must be carried out, then simulate the same or similar conditions andenvironment in which the problem occurred in the customer’s vehicle. No matter how much experience atechnician has, or how skilled he may be, if he proceeds to troubleshoot without confirming the problemsymptoms he will tend to overlook something important in the repair operation and make a wrong guesssomewhere, which will only lead to a standstill. For example, for a problem which only occurs when the en-gine is cold, or for a problem which occurs due to vibration caused by the road during driving, etc., the prob-lem can never be determined so long as the symptoms are confirmed with the engine hot condition or thevehicle at a standstill. Since vibration, heat or water penetration (moisture) is likely cause for problem whichis difficult to reproduce, the symptom simulation tests introduced here are effective measures in that the ex-ternal causes are applied to the vehicle in a stopped condition.Important Points in the Symptom Simulation Test:In the symptom simulation test, the problem symptoms should of course be confirmed, but the problem areaor parts must also be found out. To do this, narrow down the possible problem circuits according to the symp-toms before starting this test and connect a tester beforehand. After that, carry out the symptom simulationtest, judging whether the circuit being tested is defective or normal and also confirming the problem symp-toms at the same time. Refer to the problem symptoms table for each system to narrow down the possiblecauses of the symptom.

HOW TO USE THE DIAGNOSTICCHART AND INSPECTIONPROCEDURE1. CONNECTOR CONNECTION AND TERMINAL IN-
SPECTION For troubleshooting, diagnostic trouble code charts or
problem symptom table are provided for each circuit withdetailed inspection procedures on the following pages.
When all the component parts, wire harnesses and con-nectors of each circuit except the ECU are found to benormal in troubleshooting, then it is determined that theproblem is in the ECU. Accordingly, if diagnosis is per-formed without the problem symptoms occurring, refer toStep 8 to replace the ECU. So always confirm that theproblem symptoms are occurring, or proceed with inspec-tion while using the symptom simulation method.
The instructions ”Check wire harness and connector” and”Check and replace ECU” which appear in the inspectionprocedure, are common and applicable to all diagnostictrouble codes. Follow the procedure outlined belowwhenever these instructions appear.
OPEN CIRCUIT:This could be due to a disconnected wire harness, faulty con-tact in the connector, a connector terminal pulled out, etc.HINT: It is rarely the case that a wire is broken in the middle of
it. Most cases occur at the connector. In particular, care-fully check the connectors of sensors and actuators
Faulty contact could be due to rusting of the connectorterminals, to foreign materials entering terminals or a de-formation of connector terminals. Simply disconnectingand reconnecting the connectors once changes thecondition of the connection and may result in a return tonormal operation. Therefore, in troubleshooting, if no ab-normality is found in the wire harness and connectorcheck, but the problem disappears after the check, thenthe cause is considered to be in the wire harness or con-nectors.
SHORT CIRCUIT:This could be due to a contact between wire harness and thebody ground or to a short circuit occurred inside the switch, etc.HINT:When there is a short circuit between the wire harness and bodyground, check thoroughly whether the wire harness is caughtin the body or is clamped properly.

2. CONNECTOR HANDLINGWhen inserting tester probes into a connector, insert them fromthe rear of the connector. When necessary, use mini test leads.For water resistant connectors which cannot be accessed frombehind, take good care not to deform the connector terminals.
3. CONTINUITY CHECK (OPEN CIRCUIT CHECK)(a) Disconnect the connectors at both ECU and sensor
sides.
(b) Measure the resistance between the applicable terminalsof the connectors.Resistance: 1 Ω or less
HINT:Measure the resistance while lightly shaking the wire harnessvertically and horizontally.
4. RESISTANCE CHECK (SHORT CIRCUIT CHECK)(a) Disconnect the connectors on both ends.(b) Measure the resistance between the applicable terminals
of the connectors and body ground. Be sure to carry outthis check on the connectors on both ends.Resistance: 1 M Ω or higher
HINT:Measure the resistance while lightly shaking the wire harnessvertically and horizontally.
5. VISUAL CHECK AND CONTACT PRESSURE CHECK(a) Disconnect the connectors at both ends.(b) Check for rust or foreign material, etc. in the terminals of
the connectors.(c) Check crimped portions for looseness or damage and
check that the terminals are secured in lock portion.HINT:The terminals should not come out when pulled lightly from theback.

(d) Prepare a test male terminal and insert it in the female ter-minal, then pull it out.
NOTICE:When testing a gold–plated female terminal, always use agold–plated male terminal.HINT:When the test terminal is pulled out more easily than others,there may be poor contact in that section.
6. CHECK OPEN CIRCUITFor the open circuit in the wire harness in Fig. 1, perform ”(a)Continuity Check” or ”(b) Voltage Check” to locate the section.
(a) Check the continuity.(1) Disconnect connectors ”A” and ”C” and measure
the resistance between them.In the case of Fig. 2:Between terminal 1 of connector ”A” and terminal 1of connector ”C” → No continuity (open)Between terminal 2 of connector ”A” and terminal 2of connector ”C” → ContinuityTherefore, it is found out that there is an open circuitbetween terminal 1 of connector ”A” and terminal 1of connector ”C”.
(2) Disconnect connector ”B” and measure the resis-tance between the connectors.In the case of Fig. 3:Between terminal 1 of connector ”A” and terminal 1of connector ”B1” → ContinuityBetween terminal 1 of connector ”B2” and terminal1 of connector ”C” → No continuity (open)Therefore, it is found out that there is an open circuitbetween terminal 1 of connector ”B2” and terminal1 of connector ”C”.

(b) Check the voltage.In a circuit in which voltage is applied (to the ECU connec-tor terminal), an open circuit can be checked for by con-ducting a voltage check.
As shown in Fig. 4, with each connector still con-nected, measure the voltage between body groundand terminal 1 of connector ”A” at the ECU 5V out-put terminal, terminal 1 of connector ”B”, and termi-nal 1 of connector ”C”, in that order.
If the results are:5V: Between Terminal 1 of connector ”A” and Body Ground5V: Between Terminal 1 of connector ”B” and Body Ground0V: Between Terminal 1 of connector ”C” and Body GroundThen it is found out that there is an open circuit in the wire har-ness between terminal 1 of ”B” and terminal 1 of ”C”.
7. CHECK SHORT CIRCUITIf the wire harness is ground shorted as in Fig. 5, locate the sec-tion by conducting a ”continuity check with ground”.
Check the continuity with ground.(1) Disconnect connectors ”A” and ”C” and measure
the resistance between terminal 1 and 2 of connec-tor ”A” and body ground.In the case of Fig. 6:Between terminal 1 of connector ”A” and bodyground → Continuity (short)Between terminal 2 of connector ”A” and bodyground → No continuityTherefore, it is found out that there is a short circuitbetween terminal 1 of connector ”A” and terminal 1of connector ”C”.

8. CHECK AND REPLACE ECUFirst check the ECU ground circuit. If it is faulty, repair it. If it isnormal, the ECU could be faulty, so replace the ECU with a nor-mal functioning one and check that the symptoms appear.
(1) Measure the resistance between the ECU groundterminal and the body ground.
Resistance: 1 Ω or less
(2) Disconnect the ECU connector, check the groundterminals on the ECU side and the wire harnessside for bend and check the contact pressure.
