    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR IN CIRCUIT CONNECTED TO POWER SOURCE 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  3

  3. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (GROUND) 

    See step  2

    Result

    Proceed to
    OK
    NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  4

  4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (CERTIFICATION ECU (SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY) - ECM) 
    1. Disconnect the A13 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connector.
    2. Disconnect the A91*1 or A82*2 ECM connector.
      1. *1: for 2GR-FKS
      2. *2: for 8AR-FTS
    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      FOR 2GR-FKS:

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A13-14 (NE) - A91-30 (NEO) Always Below 1 Ω
      A13-14 (NE) or A91-30 (NEO) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

      Standard Resistance

      FOR 8AR-FTS:

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      A13-14 (NE) - A82-30 (NEO) Always Below 1 Ω
      A13-14 (NE) or A82-30 (NEO) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  5

  5. CHECK SMART KEY ECU ASSEMBLY 
    1. Reconnect the A13 and O6 certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly) connectors.
    2. Reconnect the A91*1 or A82*2 ECM connector.
      1. *1: for 2GR-FKS
      2. *2: for 8AR-FTS
    3. Using an oscilloscope, check the engine speed input signal waveform at the terminal of the certification ECU (smart key ECU assembly).

When to See a Mechanic

Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:

  • You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.
  • Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.
  • The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.
  • You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.
  • You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
