Toyota Tacoma 2015-2018 Service Manual / Cruise Control / Cruise Control System(for 2gr-fks) / 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.

PROCEDURE

1.	CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (TC of DLC3 - ECM)

(a) Disconnect the E21 ECM connector.

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

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
D4-13 (TC) - E14-20 (TC)	Always	Below 1 Ω
