(k)Care must be taken when jacking up and supporting the
vehicle. Be sure to lift and support the vehicle at the proper 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 front
and behind the other wheels on the ground.
After the vehicle is jacked up, be sure to support it
on rigid racks . It is extremely dangerous to do any
work on a vehicle raised on a jack alone, even for
a small job that can be finished quickly.
(l)Observe the following precautions to avoid damage to the
following parts:
(1)Do not open the cover or case of the ECU unless
absolutely necessary. (If the IC terminals are

(2)To disconnect vacuum hoses, pull off the end, not
the 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, such
as sensors or relays. If they are dropped on a hard
floor, they should be replaced and not reused.
(5)When steam cleaning an engine, protect the elec-
tronic components, air filter and emission–related
components from water.

(7)When checking continuity at the wire connector, in -
sert the tester probe carefully to prevent terminals
from bending.
(8)When using a vacuum gauge, never force the hose
onto a connector that is too large. Use a step–down
adapter for adjustment. Once the hose has been
stretched, it may leak air.
Example

(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 the
hood shows the proper layout.
(n)Unless otherwise stated, all resistance is measured at an
ambient temperature of 20°C (68°F). Because the resis-
tance may be outside specifications if measured at high
temperatures immediately after the vehicle has been running, measurement should be made when the engine has
cooled down.

PRECAUTION
1.FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH SRS AIRBAG AND
SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER
(a)The TOYOTA TUNDRA is equipped with an SRS (Sup-
plemental Restraint System), such as the driver airbag,
front passenger airbag assembly and seat belt pretensioner.
Failure to carry out service operations in the correct sequence could cause the supplemental restraint system to
unexpectedly deploy during servicing, possibly leading to
a serious accident.
Further, i f a mistake is made in servicing the supplemental
restraint system, it is possible the SRS may fail to operate
when required. Before servicing (including removal or
installation of parts, inspection or replacement), be sure
to read the following items carefully, then follow the correct procedure described in this manual.
(b)GENERAL NOTICE
(1)Malfunction symptoms of the supplemental re-
straint system are difficult to confirm, so the diagnostic trouble codes become the most important
source of information when troubleshooting. When
troubleshooting the supplemental restraint system,
always inspect the diagnostic trouble codes before
disconnecting the battery (See page DI–490).
(2)Work must be started after 90 seconds from the
time the ignition switch is turned to the ”LOCK” position and the negative (–) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery.
(The supplemental restraint system is equipped
with a back–up power source so that if work is
started within 90 seconds of disconnecting the negative (–) terminal cable from the battery, the SRS
may deploy.)
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
the each memory system. Then when work is finished, reset the clock and audio systems as before.
To avoid erasing the memory of each memory system, never use a back–up power supply from another battery.

–INTRODUCTIONFOR ALL OF VEHICLES
(3)Even in cases of a minor collision where the SRS
does not deploy, the steering wheel pad (See page
RS–12), front passenger airbag assembly (See
page RS–26) and seat belt pretensioner (See page
BO–140) should be inspected.
(4)Never use SRS parts from another vehicle. When
replacing parts, replace them with new parts.
(5)Before repairs, remove the airbag sensor if shocks
are likely to be applied to the sensor during repairs.
(6)Never disassemble and repair the airbag sensor as-
sembly, steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag
assembly or seat belt pretensioner.
(7)If the airbag sensor assembly, steering wheel pad,
front passenger airbag assembly or seat belt pretensioner has been dropped, or if there are cracks,
dents or other defects in the case, bracket or connector, replace them with new ones.
(8)Do not directly expose the airbag sensor assembly,
steering wheel pad, front passenger airbag assembly or seat belt pretensioner to hot air or flames.
(9)Use a volt/ohmmeter with high impedance (10 kΩ/V
minimum) for troubleshooting of the electrical circuit.
(10) Information labels are attached to the periphery of
the SRS components. Follow the instructions on the
notices.
(11) After work on the supplemental restraint system is
completed, check the SRS warning light (See page
DI–490).

–INTRODUCTIONFOR ALL OF VEHICLES
(d)STEERING WHEEL PAD (with Airbag)
(1)When removing the steering wheel pad or handling
a new steering wheel pad, it should be placed with
the pad top surface facing up.
Storing the pad with its metallic surface upward may
lead to a serious accident if the airbag inflates for
some reason. In addition do not store a steering
wheel pad on top of another one.
(2)Never measure the resistance of the airbag squib.
(This may cause the airbag to deploy, which is very
dangerous.)
(3)Grease should not be applied to the steering wheel
pad and the pad should not be cleaned with detergents of any kind.
(4)Store the steering wheel pad where the ambient
temperature remains below 93°C (200°F), without
high humidity and away from electrical noise.
(5)When using electric welding, first disconnect the air-
bag connector (yellow color and 2 pins) under the
steering column near the combination switch connector before starting work.
(6)When disposing of a vehicle or the steering wheel
pad alone, the airbag should be deployed using an
SST before disposal (See page RS–14).
Perform the operation in a safe place away from
electrical noise.

bag assembly with the airbag deployment direction
facing up.
Storing the airbag assembly with the airbag deployment direction facing down could cause a serious
accident if the airbag deploys.
(2)Never measure the resistance of the airbag squib.
(This may cause the airbag to deploy, which is very
dangerous.)
(3)Grease should not be applied to the front passen-
ger airbag assembly and the airbag door should not
be cleaned with detergents of any kind.
(4)Store the airbag assembly where the ambient tem-
perature remains below 93°C (200°F), without high
humidity and away from electrical noise.
(5)When using electric welding, first disconnect the air-
bag connector (yellow color and 2 pins) installed on

in a collision when the SRS has deployed.
(2)The connectors to the airbag sensor assembly
should be connected or disconnected with the sen-
sor mounted on the floor . If the connectors are con-
nected or disconnected while the airbag sensor as-
sembly is not mounted to the floor, it could cause
undesired ignition of the supplemental restraint sys-
tem.
(3)Work must be started after 90 seconds from the
time the ignition switch is turned to the ”LOCK” posi-
tion and the negative (–) terminal cable is discon-
nected from the battery, even if only loosening the
set bolts of the airbag sensor assembly.
(h)WIRE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR
The SRS wire harness is integrated with the cowl wire harness assembly and floor wire harness assembly. All the

GENERAL INFORMATION
A large number of ECU controlled systems are used in the TOYOTA TUNDRA. In general, the ECU controlled system is considered to be a very intricate system requiring a high level of technical knowledge and
expert skill to troubleshoot. However, the fact is that if you proceed to inspect the circuits one by one, troubleshooting of these systems is not complex. If you have adequate understanding of the system and a basic
knowledge of electricity, accurate diagnosis and necessary repair can be performed to locate and fix the
problem. This manual is designed through emphasis of the above standpoint to help service technicians
perform accurate and effective 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.
SystemPage
1. Engine (5VZ–FE)DI–1
2. Engine (2UZ–FE)DI–192
3. Automatic Transmission (A340E, A340F)DI–382
4. Anti–Lock Brake SystemDI–446
5. Supplemental Restraint SystemDI–488
6. TOYOTA Vehicle Intrusion Protection SystemDI–592
7. Cruise Control System (5VZ–FE)DI–638
8. Cruise Control System (2UZ–FE)DI–662
FOR USING OBD II SCAN TOOL OR 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’s
Manual.

1.CUSTOMER PROBLEM ANALYSIS
In troubleshooting, the problem symptoms must be confirmed accurately and all preconceptions must be
cleared away in order to give an accurate judgment. To ascertain just what the problem symptoms are, it is
extremely 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 be
unrelated and the repair history, etc. may also help in some cases, so as much information as possible should
be gathered and its relationship with the problem symptoms should be correctly ascertained for reference
in troubleshooting. A customer problem analysis table is provided in Diagnostics section for each system
for your use.

2.SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION AND DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE CHECK
The diagnostic system in the TOYOTA TUNDRA fulfills various functions. The first function is the Diagnostic
Trouble Code Check in which a malfunction in the signal circuits to the ECU is stored in code in the ECU
memory at the time of occurrence, to be output by the technician during troubleshooting. Another function
is the Input Signal Check 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 can
be performed effectively. Diagnostic functions are incorporated in the following systems in the TOYOTA
TUNDRA.

In diagnostic trouble code check, it is very important to determine whether the problem indicated by the diagnostic 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 diagnostic
trouble code is directly related to the problem symptom or not. For this reason, the diagnostic trouble codes
should be checked before and after the symptom confirmation to determine the current conditions, as shown
in the table below. If this is not done, it may, depending on the case, result in unnecessary troubleshooting
for normally operating systems, thus making it more difficult to locate the problem, or in repairs not pertinent
to the problem. Therefore, always follow the procedure in correct order and perform the diagnostic trouble
code check.

3.SYMPTOM SIMULATION
The 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 and
environment in which the problem occurred in the customer ’s vehicle. No matter how much experience a
technician has, or how skilled he may be, if he proceeds to troubleshoot without confirming the problem
symptoms he will tend to overlook something important in the repair operation and make a wrong guess
somewhere, which will only lead to a standstill. For example, for a problem which only occurs when the engine is cold, or for a problem which occurs due to vibration caused by the road during driving, etc., the problem can never be determined so long as the symptoms are confirmed with the engine hot condition or the
vehicle at a standstill. Since vibration, heat or water penetration (moisture) is likely cause for problem which
is difficult to reproduce, the symptom simulation tests introduced here are effective measures in that the external 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 area
or parts must also be found out. To do this, narrow down the possible problem circuits according to the symptoms before starting this test and connect a tester beforehand. After that, carry out the symptom simulation
test, judging whether the circuit being tested is defective or normal and also confirming the problem symptoms at the same time. Refer to the problem symptoms table for each system to narrow down the possible
causes of the symptom.
VIBRATION METHOD: When vibration seems to be the major cause.
1
CONNECTORS
Slightly shake the connector vertically and horizontally.
WIRE HARNESS
Slightly shake the wire harness vertically and horizontally.
The connector joint, fulcrum of the vibration, and body
through portion are the major areas to be checked thoroughly.
PARTS AND SENSOR
Apply slight vibration with a finger to the part of the sensor
considered to be the problem cause and check that the malfunction occurs.
HINT:
Applying strong vibration to relays may result in open relays.

HEAT METHOD: When the problem seems to occur when the suspect area is heated.2
Heat the component that is the likely cause of the malfunction
with a hair dryer or similar object. Check to see if the malfunction
occurs.
NOTICE:
(1)
Do not heat to more than 60°C (140°F). (Temperature
is limited not to damage the components.)
(2)
Do not apply heat directly to parts in the ECU.

3WATER SPRINKLING METHOD:
When the malfunction seems to occur on a rainy day or in a
high–humidity condition.
Sprinkle water onto the vehicle and check to see if the malfunction occurs.
NOTICE:
(1)
Never sprinkle water directly into the engine compartment, but indirectly change the temperature and humidity by applying water spray onto the radiator front
surface.
(2)
Never apply water directly onto the electronic components.
HINT:
If a vehicle is subject to water leakage, the leaked water may
contaminate the ECU. When testing a vehicle with a water leakage problem, special caution must be taken.
4OTHER: When a malfunction seems to occur when electrical load is excessive.
Turn on all electrical loads including the heater blower, head
ON
lights, rear window defogger, etc. and check to see if the malfunction occurs.

HOW TO USE THE DIAGNOSTIC
CHART AND INSPECTION
PROCEDURE
1.CONNECTOR CONNECTION AND TERMINAL INSPECTION
For troubleshooting, diagnostic trouble code charts or
problem symptom table are provided for each circuit with
detailed 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 be
normal in troubleshooting, then it is determined that the
problem is in the ECU. Accordingly, if diagnosis is performed without the problem symptoms occurring, refer to
Step 8 to replace the ECU. So always confirm that the
problem symptoms are occurring, or proceed with inspection while using the symptom simulation method.
The instructions ”Check wire harness and connector” and
”Check and replace ECU” which appear in the inspection
procedure, are common and applicable to all diagnostic
trouble codes. Follow the procedure outlined below
whenever these instructions appear.
OPEN CIRCUIT:
This could be due to a disconnected wire harness, faulty contact 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, carefully check the connectors of sensors and actuators
Faulty contact could be due to rusting of the connector
terminals, to foreign materials entering terminals or a deformation of connector terminals. Simply disconnecting
and reconnecting the connectors once changes the
condition of the connection and may result in a return to
normal operation. Therefore, in troubleshooting, if no abnormality is found in the wire harness and connector
check, but the problem disappears after the check, then
the cause is considered to be in the wire harness or connectors.
SHORT CIRCUIT:
This could be due to a contact between wire harness and the
body ground or to a short circuit occurred inside the switch, etc.
HINT:
When there is a short circuit between the wire harness and body
ground, check thoroughly whether the wire harness is caught
in the body or is clamped properly.
