WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 10 other vehicles, including the 2002 Toyota Tundra, 2002 Toyota Tacoma, 2002 Toyota Sienna, 2002 Toyota Sequoia, and 2002 Toyota Land Cruiser. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- To check for fuel injector operation, remove "V" bank cover on top of engine for access to fuel injectors. See Figure. Using stethoscope, listen for clicking sound at each fuel injector or use your finger to feel for fuel injector operation at fuel injector with engine cranking or with engine running. If fuel injector operation does not exist, check for loose connection at electrical connector at fuel injector. If electrical connector at fuel injector is okay, go to next step.
- Ensure ignition is off. Disconnect electrical connector at fuel injector. Using ohmmeter, check resistance between electrical terminals on fuel injector. Replace fuel injector if resistance is not 13.4-14.2 ohms at 68°F (20°C). See FUEL RAILS & FUEL INJECTORS under FUEL SYSTEMS in REMOVAL, OVERHAUL & INSTALLATION - V6 & V8 article.
- If fuel injector operates and fuel injector resistance is within specification, go to next step. If fuel injector resistance is within specification but fuel injector does not operate, check wiring circuit to fuel injector. See WIRING DIAGRAMS article. If problem exists in fuel injector or wiring circuit and misfire exists, a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) may be stored in Engine Control Module (ECM). See TESTING PROCEDURE under SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM in appropriate SELF-DIAGNOSTICS article for retrieving of DTCs.
- To check fuel injector volume, remove fuel injector. See FUEL RAILS & FUEL INJECTORS under FUEL SYSTEMS in REMOVAL, OVERHAUL & INSTALLATION - V6 & V8 article. Fuel injector is connected to fuel pipe fitting for checking fuel injector volume.
- Remove fuel pipe clamp from No. 1 fuel pipe. See Fig 1. Ensure area around No. 1 fuel pipe and disconnect fitting is clean.
CAUTION:
Use care when disconnecting No. 1 fuel pipe from fuel pipe fitting, as some residual fuel pressure may still exist in the fuel system.

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.
