Sfi System -- Diagnosis System |
EURO-OBD (EUROPE) |
When troubleshooting Europe On-Board Diagnostic (Euro-OBD) vehicles, the vehicle must be connected to an OBD scan tool (complying with ISO 15765-4). Various data output from the vehicle's ECM can then be read.
Euro-OBD regulations require that the vehicle's on-board computer illuminates the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) on the instrument panel when the computer detects a malfunction in:
The emission control system/components.
The powertrain control components (which affect vehicle emissions).
ECM.
In addition, the applicable Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) prescribed by ISO 15765-4 are recorded in the ECM memory. If the malfunction does not reoccur in 3 consecutive trips, the MIL goes off automatically but the DTCs remain recorded in the ECM memory.
To check DTCs, connect the GTS to the Data link Connector 3 (DLC3) of the vehicle.
The scan tool displays DTCs, the freeze frame data and a variety of the engine data.
The DTCs and freeze frame data can be erased with the scan tool (LandCruiser RM000000VNG00DX.html).

FREEZE FRAME DATA |
The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as freeze frame data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can be helpful in determining whether the vehicle was moving or stationary, whether the engine was warmed up or not, whether the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, as well as other data recorded at the time of a malfunction.
DLC3 (Data Link Connector 3) |
Check the DLC3 (LandCruiser RM000003YMH00MX.html).
INSPECT BATTERY VOLTAGE |
- Battery Voltage:
- 11 to 14 V
CHECK MIL |
Check that the MIL illuminates when turning the ignition switch to ON.
If the MIL does not illuminate, there is a problem in the MIL circuit (LandCruiser RM000000WZ11AGX.html).When the engine is started, the MIL should go off.
ALL READINESS |
- HINT:
- With "All Readiness" you can check whether or not the DTC judgment has been completed by using the GTS.
- You should check "All Readiness" after duplicating malfunction symptoms or for validation after finishing repairs.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the GTS on.
Clear the DTCs (LandCruiser RM000000VNG00DX.html).
Turn the ignition switch off.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.
Perform the DTC judgment driving pattern to run the DTC judgment.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Utility / All Readiness.
Input the DTCs to be confirmed.
Check the DTC judgment result.
GTS Display Description NORMAL - DTC judgment completed
- System normal
ABNORMAL - DTC judgment completed
- System abnormal
INCOMPLETE - DTC judgment not completed
- You should perform driving pattern after confirming DTC enabling conditions
N/A - Unable to perform DTC judgment
- Number of DTCs which do not fulfill DTC preconditions has reached ECU's memory limit
- DTC judgment completed
