      Tester Display Test Part Control Range Diagnostic Note
      Tacho Meter Operation Tachometer OFF, 0, 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, 6000 or 7000* (rpm) -

      • *: for 1GR-FE, 2TR-FE

        OK
        Tachometer indication is normal.

    NG
    OK
  4. READ VALUE USING GTS (ENGINE RPM)


    1. Using the GTS, read the Data List Click here.

      Combination Meter
      Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Engine Rpm Engine speed/Min.: 0 rpm, Max.: 12750 rpm 600 to 700 rpm (When idling) If the data received from the ECM exceeds the range that can be displayed on the meter, the meter continues to display the maximum value of the range.
      OK
      Engine speed displayed on the intelligent tester is almost the same as the tachometer indication.
    2. Record the engine speed displayed on the intelligent tester.

      Tech Tips

      Check the engine speed when the engine is fully warmed up and the air conditioning and all electrical accessories are off.


    OK
    NG
  5. READ VALUE USING GTS (ENGINE SPEED)

  6. CHECK ECM


    1. Replace the ECM with a new or normally functioning one.


    2. Check that the operation of the tachometer returns to normal.

      OK
      The operation of the tachometer returns to normal.

      Front view of wire harness connector

      (to Combination Meter Assembly)

      *b Speed Signal Waveform

      Remove the combination meter assembly with the connector(s) still connected Click here.

    2. Check the signal waveform according to the condition(s) in the table below.

      Measurement Condition
      Item Content
      Tester Connection G6-34 (S) - Body ground
      Tool Setting 5 V/DIV, 20 ms./DIV
      Vehicle Condition Idling with warm engine

      Tech Tips

      As the engine speed increases, the wavelength shortens.

      OK
      The waveform displayed is as shown in the illustration.

    OK
    NG
  9. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (COMBINATION METER ASSEMBLY - ECM)


    1. Disconnect the G6 combination meter assembly connector.

    2. Disconnect the G182 ECM connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      G6-34 (S) - G182-7 (TACH) Always Below 1 Ω
      G6-34 (S) or G182-7 (TACH) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    NG
    OK
  10. CHECK ECM


    1. Replace the ECM with a new or normally functioning one Click here.

    2. Check that the operation of the tachometer returns to normal.
