Toyota Tacoma (2015-2018) Service Manual: Check For Intermittent Problems
CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS
HINT:
Inspect the vehicle ECM using check mode. Intermittent problems are easier to detect with the Techstream when the ECM is in check mode. In check mode, the ECM uses 1 trip detection logic, which is more sensitive to malfunctions than normal mode (default), which uses 2 trip detection logic.
- Clear DTCs (See page

). - Switch the ECM from normal mode to check mode using the Techstream (See
page ).
- Perform a simulation test (See page
).
- Check and wiggle the harness(es), connector(s) and terminal(s) (See
page ).

PROCEDURE
1. INSPECT CYLINDER BLOCK FOR WARPAGE
(a) Using a precision straightedge and feeler gauge, measure the warpage
of the contact surface of the cylinder head gasket.
Standard warpage:
0 to 0.05 mm (0 to 0.00197 in.)
Maximum warpage:
0.07 mm (0.00276 ...
Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor "A" Circuit Range/Performance (P071000)
DESCRIPTION
The No. 1 ATF temperature sensor converts the fluid temperature into a resistance
value for use by the ECM.
The ECM applies a voltage to the temperature sensor through terminal THO1 of
the ECM.
The sensor resistance changes with the ATF temperature. As the temperature becomes
hi ...
Pressure Control Solenoid "G" Circuit Open (P280713)
DESCRIPTION
Changing from 1st to 6th is performed by the ECM turning shift solenoid valves
SL1, SL2, SL3 and SL4 on and off. If an open or short circuit occurs in any of the
shift solenoid valves, the ECM controls the remaining normal shift solenoid valves
to allow the vehicle to be operated ...
