Title: BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM: DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM; 2016 - 2017 MY Sienna [12/2015 - 11/2017]

DIAGNOSIS SYSTEM

1. DESCRIPTION

When troubleshooting a vehicle with the diagnosis system, the only difference from the usual troubleshooting procedure is connecting the Techstream to the vehicle and reading various data output from the vehicle's skid control ECU.

The skid control ECU records DTCs when it detects a malfunction in itself or in its circuits.

To check the DTCs, connect the Techstream to the DLC3 on the vehicle. The Techstream enables you to clear the DTCs, activate the various actuators, and check the Freeze Frame Data and Data List.

(a) Check the battery voltage.

Standard voltage:

11 to 14 V

If the voltage is below 11 V, recharge the battery before proceeding to the next step.

(b) Check the DLC3 (See page 2016 - 2020 MY Sienna [12/2015 -        ]; INTRODUCTION: HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT ECU CONTROLLED SYSTEMS: GENERAL INFORMATION ).

2. DIAGNOSIS

(a) If the skid control ECU detects a malfunction, the ABS warning, brake warning and SLIP indicator lights will come on in order to warn the driver.

(b) The DTCs are simultaneously stored in the memory.

The DTCs can be read by connecting SST between terminals TC and CG of the DLC3 and observing the blinking pattern of the ABS warning and SLIP indicator lights, or by connecting the Techstream (See page 2016 - 2017 MY Sienna [12/2015 - 11/2017]; BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM: DTC CHECK / CLEAR ).

(c) This system has a Test Mode (signal check) function.

The DTCs can be read by connecting SST between terminals TS and CG of the DLC3 and observing the blinking pattern of the ABS warning and SLIP indicator lights, or by connecting the Techstream (See page 2016 - 2017 MY Sienna [12/2015 - 11/2017]; BRAKE CONTROL / DYNAMIC CONTROL SYSTEMS: VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM: TEST MODE PROCEDURE ).

3. WARNING LIGHT AND INDICATOR LIGHT INITIAL CHECK

(a) Release the parking brake.

NOTICE:

When releasing the parking brake, move the shift lever to P for safety.

HINT:

When the parking brake is applied or the level of the brake fluid is low, the brake warning light comes on.

(b) When the ignition switch is turned to ON, check that the ABS warning, brake warning, VSC OFF indicator, and SLIP indicator lights on the combination meter's for approximately 3 seconds.

HINT:

If the warning light and indicator light check result is not normal, proceed to Troubleshooting for the ABS warning, brake warning, VSC OFF indicator and SLIP indicator light circuits.

If the indicator remains on or does not come on, proceed to troubleshooting for the light circuits listed below.
