      Tech Tips

      TOYOTA vehicles are filled with TOYOTA SLLC at the factory. In order to avoid damage to the engine cooling system and other technical problems, only use TOYOTA SLLC or similar high quality ethylene glycol based non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrite, non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology (coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology is a combination of low phosphates and organic acids).

    6. Slowly pour coolant into the radiator reserve tank assembly until it reaches the full line.

    7. Squeeze the inlet and outlet radiator hoses several times by hand, and then check the level of the coolant.

      If the coolant level is low, add coolant.

    8. Install the radiator cap sub-assembly and reserve tank cap.

    9. Bleed air from the cooling system.

      Note


      • Before starting the engine, turn the A/C switch off.

      • Adjust the heater control to the maximum hot setting.

      • Adjust the blower speed to the low setting.


      1. Warm up the engine until the thermostat opens. While the thermostat is open, circulate the coolant for several minutes.

        Tech Tips

        The thermostat open timing can be confirmed by squeezing the outlet radiator hose by hand, and sensing vibrations when the engine coolant starts to flow inside the hose.

      2. Maintain the engine speed at 2500 to 3000 rpm.

      3. Squeeze the inlet and outlet radiator hoses several times by hand to bleed air.

        CAUTION:

        When squeezing the radiator hoses:


        • Wear protective gloves.

        • Be careful as the radiator hoses are hot.

        • Keep your hands away from the radiator fans.

        Note


        • Make sure that the radiator reserve tank assembly still has some coolant in it.

        • If the coolant temperature gauge indicates an excessive temperature, turn off the engine and let it cool.

        • If there is not enough coolant, the engine may overheat or be seriously damaged.

        • If the radiator reserve tank assembly does not have enough coolant, perform the following: 1) stop the engine, 2) wait until the coolant has cooled down, and 3) add coolant until the reserve tank assembly is filled to the full line.

    10. Stop the engine, and wait until the engine coolant cools down.

    11. Add engine coolant to the full line on the radiator reserve tank assembly.

  46. WARM UP ENGINE


    1. Keep the A/C switch on for at least 2 minutes to warm up the compressor.

      Note

      To prevent damage to the compressor, be sure to warm up the compressor when turning the air conditioning on after removing and installing air conditioning system lines (including the compressor).

  47. INSPECT FOR REFRIGERANT LEAK


    1. After recharging the air conditioning system with refrigerant, inspect for refrigerant leaks using a halogen leak detector.

    2. Carry out the test under the following conditions:


      • Ignition switch off.

      • Secure good ventilation (the halogen leak detector may react to volatile gases which are not refrigerant, such as gasoline vapor and exhaust gas).

      • Repeat the inspection 2 or 3 times.

      • Measure the pressure to make sure that there is some refrigerant remaining in the air conditioning system.

        Pressure when the compressor is off: approx. 392 to 588 kPa (4.0 to 6.0 kgf/cm2, 57 to 85 psi)

      *1 Halogen Leak Detector
      *2 Drain Hose

      Bring the halogen leak detector close to the drain hose with the detector power off, and then turn the detector on.

      Tech Tips


      • After the blower motor has stopped, leave the cooling unit for more than 15 minutes.

      • Bring the halogen leak detector sensor under the drain hose.

      • When bringing the halogen leak detector close to the drain hose, make sure that the halogen leak detector does not react to volatile gases. If it is not possible to avoid interference from volatile gases, the vehicle should be lifted up to allow checking for leaks.

    5. If a refrigerant leak is not detected from the drain hose, remove the blower motor control from the cooling unit. Insert the halogen leak detector sensor into the unit and check for a leak.

    6. Disconnect the pressure sensor connector and leave it for approximately 20 minutes. Bring the halogen leak detector close to the pressure sensor and check for a leak.

      Tech Tips

      When checking for leaks, the presence of oily dirt at a joint can indicate a leak.

  48. INSPECT ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL IN RESERVOIR


    1. Check that the engine coolant level is between the low and full lines when the engine is cold.

      If the engine coolant level is low, check for leaks and add "TOYOTA Super Long Life Coolant" or similar high quality ethylene glycol based non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrite and non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology to the full line.

      Note

      Do not substitute plain water for engine coolant.

  49. INSPECT FOR FUEL LEAK


    1. Check fuel pump operation.


      1. Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.

      2. Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the Techstream on.

        Note

        Do not start the engine.

      3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Control the Fuel Pump / Speed.

      4. Check for pressure in the fuel inlet tube from the fuel line. Check that sounds of fuel flowing from the fuel tank can be heard. If no sounds can be heard, check the integration relay, fuel pump, fuel pump control ECU, ECM and wiring connectors.

    2. Inspect for fuel leaks.


      1. Check that there are no fuel leaks from the fuel system after doing any maintenance or repairs. If there is a fuel leak, repair or replace parts as necessary.

    3. Turn the engine switch off.

    4. Disconnect the Techstream from the DLC3.

  50. INSPECT FOR COOLANT LEAK

    CAUTION:

    Do not remove the radiator cap sub-assembly while the engine and radiator are still hot. Pressurized, hot engine coolant and steam may be released and cause serious burns.

    Note
