Toyota Tacoma 2015-2018 Service Manual: TC and CG Terminal Circuit
DESCRIPTION
The DLC3 circuit enables reading of Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) with no Techstream by connecting terminals TC and CG of the DLC3 connector.
Stored DTCs are displayed in blinking patterns of the CRUISE MAIN indicator light located on the combination meter.
WIRING DIAGRAM
HINT:
When a particular warning light blinks continuously, a ground short in the wiring of terminal TC of the DLC3 or an internal ground short in the relevant ECU is suspected.

Cruise Main Indicator Light Circuit
DESCRIPTION
When the ECM detects a cruise control switch on signal from the cruise
control switch, the ECM sends the signal to the combination meter assembly
through CAN communication. ...
Other materials:
Front Speed Sensor RH Malfunction (C1401,C1402)
DESCRIPTION
The speed sensor detects wheel speed and sends the appropriate signals to the
skid control ECU (brake actuator assembly). These signals are used for brake control.
The speed sensor rotors have rows of alternating N and S magnetic poles and their
magnetic fields change when the roto ...
Tachometer Malfunction
DESCRIPTION
In this circuit, the meter CPU receives engine speed signals from the ECM using
the CAN communication system (CAN V1 Bus). The meter CPU displays the engine speed
calculated based on the data received from the ECM.

PROCEDURE
1. INSPECT RADIATOR CAP SUB-ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Do not remove the radiator cap sub-assembly while the engine and radiator assembly
are still hot. Pressurized, hot engine coolant and steam may be released and cause
serious burns.
(a) Measure the valve opening pr ...
