DESCRIPTION
The MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) is used to indicate the detection of vehicle malfunctions by the ECM. When the ignition switch is turned to ON, power is supplied to the MIL circuit and the ECM provides the circuit ground which illuminates the MIL.The MIL operation can be checked visually; when the ignition switch is first turned to ON, the MIL turns on and then off. If the MIL remains illuminated or is not illuminated, conduct the following troubleshooting procedure using the intelligent tester.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- NOTICE:
- Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following inspection procedure.
1.CHECK THAT MIL IS ILLUMINATED |
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Check the illumination condition of the MIL.
ResultCondition
| Proceed to
|
MIL remains illuminated (Even after ignition switch turned to ON and several seconds have passed, MIL still remains illuminated)
| A
|
MIL remains off (Does not illuminate at all)
| B
|
MIL illuminates for several seconds, but turns off after engine is started
| C
|
2.CHECK WHETHER MIL TURNS OFF |
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the tester on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / DTC.
Check if any DTCs are output. Note down any DTCs.
Clear the DTCs (HILUX_TGN26 RM000000PDK0T7X.html).
Check if the MIL goes off.
- OK:
- MIL goes off.
3.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CHECK FOR SHORT IN WIRE HARNESS) |
Disconnect the ECM connector.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Check that the MIL is not illuminated.
- OK:
- MIL is not illuminated.
Reconnect the ECM connector.
4.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - ECM) |
Disconnect the combination meter connector.
Disconnect the ECM connector.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Standard Resistance (Check for Short):
Tester Connection
| Condition
| Specified Condition
|
G19-39 (CHK) or G145-13 (W) - Body ground
| Always
| 10 kΩ or higher
|
Reconnect the combination meter connector.
Reconnect the ECM connector.
| REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - ECM) |
|
|
OK |
|
|
|
REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY |
|
5.CHECK THAT ENGINE STARTS |
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Check that the engine starts.
ResultResult
| Proceed to
|
Engine starts
| A
|
Engine does not start*
| B
|
- HINT:
- *: The intelligent tester cannot communicate with the ECM.
6.CHECK COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY |
Disconnect the ECM connector.
Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Standard Voltage:
Tester Connection
| Switch Condition
| Specified Condition
|
G145-13 (W) - Body ground
| Ignition switch ON
| 11 to 14 V
|
Text in Illustration*a
| Component with harness connected (ECM)
|
7.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - ECM) |
Disconnect the combination meter connector.
Disconnect the ECM connector.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Standard Resistance:
Tester Connection
| Condition
| Specified Condition
|
G19-39 (CHK) - G145-13 (W)
| Always
| Below 1 Ω
|
Reconnect the ECM connector.
Reconnect the combination meter connector.
| REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER - ECM) |
|
|
OK |
|
|
|
REPLACE COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY |
