METER / GAUGE SYSTEM Tachometer Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

In this circuit, the combination meter assembly receives engine speed signals from the ECM using the CAN communication system. The combination meter assembly displays the engine speed calculated based on the data received from the ECM.

  2. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING GTS (TACHO METER OPERATION)


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    3. Turn the GTS on.

    4. Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Combination Meter / Active Test.

    5. Perform the Active Test according to the display on the GTS.

  4. READ VALUE USING GTS (ENGINE SPEED, ENGINE RPM)


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    3. Turn the GTS on.

    4. Enter the following menus:


      1. for Engine and ECT: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Data List.

      2. for Combination Meter: Body Electrical / Combination Meter / Data List.

    5. Read the Data List according to the display on the GTS.

      Engine and ECT
      Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Stored as Freeze Frame Data
      Engine Speed Engine speed/Min.: 0 rpm, Max.: 16383 rpm

      for 2GR-FE:

      600 to 700 rpm: Idling

      for 2AR-FE:

      610 to 710 rpm: Idling

      for 6AR-FSE:

      600 to 700 rpm: Idling (shift lever in P, engine warmed up and A/C off)

      		 Yes

      Results of real-vehicle check (for 2GR-FE, 2AR-FE):

      Idling (engine warmed up and A/C off): 660 rpm

      Diagnostic Note:

      When the crankshaft position sensor is malfunctioning, "Engine Speed" is approximately 0 rpm or varies greatly from the actual engine speed.

      Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Engine Rpm Engine speed/Min.: 0 rpm, Max.: 12750 rpm Almost the same as actual engine speed -
      Result
      Result Proceed to
      The data list values of the ECUs match. A
      The data list values of the ECUs do not match (for 2AR-FE). B
      The data list values of the ECUs do not match (for 2GR-FE). C
      The data list values of the ECUs do not match (for 6AR-FSE). D

      Tech Tips


      • When the Data List values of the ECUs match, an internal malfunction of the combination meter assembly is suspected.

      • When the Data List values of the ECUs do not match, a signal output error of the ECM or an internal malfunction of the combination meter assembly is suspected.
