Title: 2ZR-FAE (ENGINE CONTROL): SFI SYSTEM: Drive Start Control; 2020 MY Corolla [01/2019 - 03/2019]

Drive Start Control

DESCRIPTION

The drive start control is controlled by the ECM.

If the ECM determines that the shift lever and accelerator pedal are operated abnormally, engine output is restricted and, when necessary, a warning is displayed on the combination meter assembly.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

HINT:

Even if the accelerator pedal position is maintained, the engine output may increase when driving uphill and decrease when driving downhill. This is due to the drive start control controlling the engine output, and is not a malfunction.

PROCEDURE

1.

SYMPTOM CONFIRMATION

(a) Interview the customer to confirm the problem.

PAST ACTIVATION CONFIRMATION

(a) Check if the customer operated the vehicle in a way that would cause the drive start control to operate.

Drive Start Control Activation Conditions

Shift control

  • Activation conditions
  • Pattern A (When all of the following conditions are met, control starts.)
    • The accelerator pedal is open by approximately 1/5 or more.
    • The shift lever is moved from P to any forward position (D or B) or R.
  • Pattern B (When all of the following conditions are met, control starts.)
    • The accelerator pedal is open by approximately 1/5 or more.
    • The shift lever is moved from R to any forward position (D or B), any forward position (D or B) to R, or N to R.
  • Items Controlled
    • Engine output is restricted.
  • Deactivation Conditions
    • The accelerator pedal is released.
    • The shift lever is in P or N.

Reverse control

  • Activation conditions
  • The shift lever is in R.
  • The accelerator pedal is depressed excessively.
  • Items Controlled
    • Engine output is restricted.
  • Deactivation Conditions
    • The accelerator pedal is released.
    • The shift lever is moved to any position other than R.

HINT:

  • The engine output restricted level differs between pattern A, pattern B and Reverse control.
  • During reverse control or shift control, engine output is adjusted based on the road gradient and steering angle.
