      Temperature
      		Specified Condition
      Cold
      		1,630 to 2,740 Ω
      Hot
      		2,065 to 3,225 Ω
      Result:
      Result
      		Proceed to
      NG
      		Replace camshaft position sensor
      OK
      		Go to next step

    5. Check the resistance of the crankshaft position sensor.

      Standard resistance:
      Temperature
      		Specified Condition
      Cold
      		985 to 1,600 Ω
      Hot
      		1,265 to 1,890 Ω
      Result:
      Result
      		Proceed to
      NG
      		Replace crankshaft position sensor
      OK
      		Go to next step

    6. Check the IGT from the ECM (YARIS_NCP93 RM000000XH40L5X.html).

      Result:
      Result
      		Proceed to
      NG
      		Check ECM
      OK
      		Repair wiring between ignition coil and ECM

  1. Connect the 4 injector connectors.

  1. Using a 16 mm (0.63 in) plug wrench, install the 4 spark plugs.

    Torque:
    18 N*m{184 kgf*cm, 13 ft.*lbf}

  1. Install the 4 ignition coils (YARIS_NCP93 RM000001EFH02JX_01_0001.html).

  1. Install cylinder head cover No. 2 (YARIS_NCP93 RM000001EFH02JX_01_0002.html).



2. INSPECT SPARK PLUG
NOTICE:
Do not use a wire brush for cleaning.

  1. Check the electrode.

    1. Using a megaohmmeter, measure the insulation resistance.

      Standard resistance:
      10 MΩ or more
      HINT:
      1. If the result is not as specified, clean the spark plug with a spark plug cleaner and measure the resistance again.
      2. If a megaohmmeter is not available, perform the following simple inspection instead.


  1. Alternative inspection method:

    1. Quickly accelerate the engine to 4,000 rpm 5 times.

    2. Remove the spark plug.



      3. Yaris. Ncp93, 131.1Nz-Fe Engine Control.Sfi System (For Sedan).Ignition System (For Sedan) On-Vehicle Inspection

    3. Visually check the spark plug.
      If the electrode is dry, the spark plug is functioning properly. If the electrode is damp, proceed to the next step.

  1. Check the spark plug for any damage to its thread and insulator.
    If there is damage, replace the spark plug.

    Recommended spark plug:
    Manufacturer
    		Product
    DENSO
    		SK16R11
    NGK
    		IFR5A11

  1. Check the spark plug electrode gap.

    Maximum electrode gap for used spark plug:
    1.3 mm (0.051 in.)
    If the gap is greater than the maximum, replace the spark plug.
    Electrode gap for new spark plug:
    1.0 to 1.1 mm (0.039 to 0.043 in.)

  1. Clean the spark plug.
    If the electrode has traces of wet carbon, clean the electrode with a spark plug cleaner and then dry it.

    Air pressure:
    588 kPa (6 kgf/cm2, 85 psi)
    Duration:
    20 seconds or less
    HINT:
    Only use the spark plug cleaner when the electrode is free of oil. If the electrode has traces of oil, use gasoline to clean off the oil before using the spark plug cleaner.
