have a look around the drivers footwell, i think there is one there in some cars? should be able to bridge them yeah.

You wont be able to. It will be at least obod II.

You will need a scanner, not just bridge the terminals.

yep, new generation toyotas require a scann tool. the lastest have a real tricky one too.

i was guessing it needed a scan tool. i found a plug under the dash on drivers side.
i think it has a tps problem after speeding up to 50 or 60 when you back off the throttle it misses once real hard then curises on light throttle nicely
also feels really lean as you go to drive off
any ideas?

anyone?

o2 sensor, not uncommon to fail
iirc they have 4

by **Alex B** » Mon Nov 27, 2006 3:26 pm

Are they not just OBD2 revvy?

by **Mr Revhead** » Mon Nov 27, 2006 3:38 pm

not 100% sure on the RAVs.
the latest hilux requires a different scanner than previous model toyotas.
dont know if its OBD2 or what ever though. apparantly the info gained is a heck of a lot more, and they can alter various parameters on the ECU whereas the older ones just read info.

Where are you located?

by **Mr Revhead** » Fri Dec 22, 2006 8:48 am

yeah, where are you?
toyota dealers are generally pretty good with customers

were in chch. i had a chance to hook a snapon scan tool up to the rav on wednesday, it had one fault logged
VVT system malfunction,
i cleared it and went for a drive wile looking for a spike or flat spot on the graphs , only thing i saw that seemed odd was te timing went to negitive 13.5 degrees at one point , my time was limited and didnt get a chance to cross check graphs for engine load when it changed the timing at that point.
rechecked the fault codes and VVT system malfunction had logged again,
was pissed that i couldnt get it to miss like it does often cruising round chch. im stuck now on what i should be looking at with the VVT as to the fault it logged,
