1. BRAKE SYSTEM
The brake system is one of the most important safety components. Always follow the directions and
notes given in brake (32) section of the repair manual for the relevant model when handling brake system
parts.
NOTICE: When repairing the brake master cylinder or TRAC system, bleed the air out of the TRAC system.
2. DRIVE TRAIN AND CHASSIS
The drive train and chassis are components that can have great effects on the running performance and
vibration resistance of the vehicle. After installing components in the sections listed in the table below,
perform alignments to ensure correct mounting angles and dimensions. Particularly accurate repair of
the body must also be done to ensure correct alignment.
HINT: Correct procedures and special tools are required for alignment. Always follow the directions given in the repair manual for the relevant model during alignment and section DI of this section.

3. COMPONENTS ADJACENT TO THE BODY PANELS
Various types of component parts are mounted directly on or adjacently to the body panels. Strictly observe the following precautions to prevent damaging these components and the body panels during handling.
Before repairing the body panels, remove their components or apply protective covers over the com-
ponents.
Before prying components off using a screwdriver or a scraper, etc., attach protective tape to the tool
tip or blade to prevent damaging the components and the body paint.
Before removing components from the outer surface of the body, attach protective tape to the body to
ensure no damage to painted areas.
HINT: Apply touch-up paint to any damaged paint surfaces.
Before drilling or cutting sections, make sure that there are no wires, etc. on the reverse side.
4. ECU (ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT)
Many ECUs are mounted in this vehicle.
Take the following precautions during body repair to prevent damage to the ECUs.
Before starting electric welding operations, disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the bat-
tery.
When the negative (-) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery , memory of the clock and audio
systems will be cancelled. So before starting work, make a record of the contents memorized by each
memory system. Then when work is finished, reset the clock and audio systems as before.
When the vehicle has tilt and telescopic steering, power seat and outside rear view mirror, which are
all equipped with memory function, it is not possible to make a record of the memory contents.
So when the operation is finished, it will be necessary to explain this fact to the customer, and request
the customer to adjust the features and reset the memory.
Do not expose the ECUs to ambient temperatures above 80C (176F).
NOTICE: If it is possible the ambient temperature may reach 80C (176F) or more, remove the ECUs
from the vehicle before starting work.
Be careful not to drop the ECUs and not to apply physical shocks to them.

PRECAUTIONS FOR REPAIRING BODY
STRUCTURE PANELS
1. HEAT REPAIR FOR BODY STRUCTURE
PANELS
Toyota prohibits the use of the heat repair method on body
structure panels when repairing a vehicle damaged in a collision.
Panels that have high strength and rigidity, as well as a long
life span for the automobile body are being sought after.
At Toyota, in order to fulfill these requirement, we use high
tensile strength steel sheets and rust preventive steel
sheets on the body.
High tensile steel sheets are made with alloy additives and
a special heat treatment in order to improve the strength.
To prevent the occurrence of rust for a long period of time,
the surface of the steel is coated with a zinc alloy.
If a body structure parts are heat repaired with an acetylene
torch or ot h e r heating source, the crystalline organization of
the steel sheet will change and the strength of the steel
sheet will be reduced.
The ability of the body to resist rust is significantly lowered
as well since the rust resistant zinc coating is destroyed by
heat and the steel sheet surface is oxidized.
2. STRUCTURE PANEL KINKS
A sharp deformation angle on the panel that cannot be returned to its original shape by pulling or hammering is
called a kink.
Since structure parts were designed to exhibit a 100% performance when they were in their original shape, if they are
deformed in an accident, or if the deformed parts are repaired and reused, they become unable to exhibit the same
performance as intended in the design.
It is necessary to replace the part where the kink has occurred.
INTRODUCTION
3. IMPACT BEAM REPAIR
The impact beam and bracket are necessary and important
parts in maintaining a survival space for passengers in a
side collision.
For impact beam, we use special high tensile strength
steel.
The high tensile strength steel maintains its special crystalline organization by heat treatment or alloy additives.
Since these parts were designed to exhibit a 100% performance when they were in their original shape, if they are
deformed in an accident, or if the deformed parts are repaired and reused, they become unable to exhibit the same
performance as intended in the design.
It is necessary to replace the door assembly when impact
beam or bracket is damaged.

(d) SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR ELECTRICAL COM-
PONENTS
(1) When welding, there is a danger that electrical compo-
nents will be damaged by the electrical current flowing
through the body.
(2) Before starting work, disconnect the negative terminal
of the battery and ground the welder near the welding
location of the body.
(e) ROUGH CUTTING OF JOINTS
