  • How to read ECU fault codes. 1KZ-TE & D4D

    The ability to self diagnose and store faults as an extractable code is a great feature of modern engine management systems.

    It assists us to trouble shoot what is an increasingly complex system and is especially handy for finding the cause of those intermittent problems that would otherwise drive us insane trying to find.

    Despite the 1kz-te being an old school technology engine its engine management is relatively sophisticated (It can be thought of as single point electronic fuel injection)

    The codes stored in the ECU can be easily extracted at home and are displayed via the engine check light on the instrument cluster.

    The codes can be read by shorting out pin 4 and 13 on the (16 pin) DLC3 connector located under the fuse box on the driver’s side of the dash.

    A short piece of wire can be used to short the pins (tin the ends with solder and keep it in your tool kit)




    Steps:

    1) Make sure the ignition is OFF, throttle closed, Aircon OFF and if it’s automatic have it in P.
    2) Turn the ignition ON but don’t crank or start the engine.
    3) Put the jumper wire across the connector pins. (pin 4 and pin 13)
    4) Read codes displayed via the engine check light.
    5) Disconnect the wire when finished extracting codes and turn the ignition off.

    Reading Codes:

    Codes are read by the flashing of the “Check Engine” light on the instrument cluster.




    If there are no codes held in the ECU then the light will have a continuous flash, on for ¼ second, off for ¼ second.

    All the codes are two digit numbers. The first flash is 4.5 seconds from when you short the pins. It stays on for ½ a second then off for ½ a second. Then the first digit of the code will flash, followed by a 1.5 second pause then the second digit will flash.

    Example:

    4x flashes…. 1.5 second pause…2x flashes. Would be code 42.


    If there is only one code the there will be a 4.5 second pause before the code will be repeated.

    If more codes are present the codes the pause between codes will be 2.5 seconds.

    To clear the codes from the memory of the ECU remove the fuse labeled “ECD” from the fuse box in the engine bay. Leave it out for 60 seconds.
    (Don’t clear the memory by removing the battery or you will have to reset the clock, radio and windows)


    Codes and what sensor/circuit it relates too:

    1KZ-TE diagnostic codes:

    12 = No RPM signal during cranking.
    13 = No RPM signal after cranking and engine reaches 680rpm+
    14 = Timing control signal (crankshaft angle 7 deg or more out from target)
    15 = Throttle control motor (no signal)
    16 = Auto trans control signal
    18 = Spill control valve (no signal)
    19 = Accel pedal position sensor (no signal)
    22 = Coolant temp sensor
    24 = Intake air temp sensor.
    32 = Correction resistor signal.
    33 = Intake constrictor control signal.
    35 = Boost pressure sensor.
    39 = Fuel temp sensor.
    41 = Throttle position sensor.
    42 = Vehicle speed sensor.
    43 = Starter signal to ECU.
    51 = Switch control system
    96 = EGR valve lift sensor.
    99 = Engine immobilizer.


    D4D diagnostic codes:

    Extracting ECU trouble codes from D4D powered Prado’s via the engine check light uses exactly the same method as shown for the 1KZ-TE above.

    Those of you with a Scan Gauge or similar OBD reader will get codes displayed on the screen of the unit. These codes are in a slightly different format (letter “P” followed by a four digit number).

    D4D engine management fault codes:

    The first code is that shown via an OBD reader, the second code shown (in brackets) is shown via the engine check light.

    Re: How to read ECU fault codes. 1KZ-TE

    Good one MickL. Will print this and put in glovebox with a paperclip.......

    This is pretty much the same technology that has been on petrol ECU systems for last 20 yrs, used by Holden, Nissan etc.
    Commodores started with the VK Commodores in 1984, and has been slowly evolving over the years, and soon found itself on just about everything, including trucks, tractors, earthmoving machinary etc. The latest Target Catalogue may offer in-car accessories.

        I'll do the same write for the petrol and d4d engines when I get all the codes together and time :!:

        Hopefully a helpfull resource.

            Hi Mick,

            Thanks very much for this. I think it would be desirable to jumper from pins 4 to 13 before power is applied in order to mitigate against a short circuit. Do you see any problem with this change in the sequence? I too will put a copy of your work in the glovebox.

            Regards

              The sequence is as per "Toyota" specify.

              The only issue I can see is powering up with the jumper wire in place is that that may in its self cause a fault code, but I would have to test that theory.

              One of the pins is an earth and one is the powered up diagnostic circuit. By adding the jumper wire you are completing the circuit so there is not really a potential for a short circuit as such, the diagnostic circut also is very low current drawing (milliamps) so there is no chance of arcing either. Most of the other pins are not connected (blank) and the connector is numbered also, so getting it wrong would be quite unlikely.

              I'll get a better picture of the plug so it is clear which pins are which.

                Hi Mick, Any chance you can get the photos to work again for this? just had my light come up after cleaning my throttle body and want to know what its for. cheers

                      Hi All,

                      Has anyone had a fault code starting with "C" not "P" for a D4D using the scan gauge?

                      I had trouble starting mine before, pressed start button and it would flash green but not start. After a few tries it started and now is logging a lot of fault code events.

                      Cheers

                      Dave


                      Cheers

                        Hi Dave,

                        My partner had a corolla with the push start button, and there was a time when she pushed the button, the car tried to start but didn't. after a few attempts, the battery went flat. Turns out it was flooded! Don't know if this can happen to the D4Ds', just thought that maybe its something that could happen to these new "key less" start buttons??

                          Hi Hibbo,

                          Thanks for the reply, it turns out that any code starting with C is related to the chassis where P is only for the engine.

                          The tech guys aren't sure, once I started it a second time it stopped throwing fault codes. They claim they have had an issue when steering wheels are locked on at full lock.. Time will tell, I just hope it's not when we are half way across the Simmo!!

                          Cheers

                          Dave

                            96 = EGR valve lift sensor.
                            Turns out i forgot to plug the EGR back up when i was cleaning the throttle body...

                              Hey,

                              I'll try and be on now and then. I've been busy with my business, new family addition and also nearly sold the Prado as I needed a work vehicle and the Prado had been in storage for nearly 6 months. In the end we've kept the Prado as I couldn't bare to part with it. Now have a Hilux 150 D4D to cover the work duties. The Prado will see it's first off road trip this year shortly with a trip to the Flinders/Arkaroola. Glad to be back into it.... I've worked every weekend since mid December!!
