WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Toyota Camry. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. INSPECT MASS AIR FLOW METER 
    1. Check the output voltage.
      1. Apply battery voltage across terminals 1 (+B) and 2 (E2G).
      2. Using a voltmeter, connect the positive (+) tester probe to terminal VG, and negative (-) tester probe to terminal E2G.
      3. Blow air into the MAF meter, and check that the voltage fluctuates.
    2. Measure the resistance between terminals 4 (THA) and 5 (E2).

      Standard: 

      MASS AIR FLOW METER TERMINALS RESISTANCE CHART

      Condition Specified Condition
      -20°C (-4°F) 13.6 to 18.4 kΩ
      20°C (68°F) 2.21 to 2.69 kΩ
      60°C (140°F) 0.493 to 0.667 kΩ

      If the result is not as specified, replace the MAF meter.

  2. INSPECT CAMSHAFT TIMING OIL CONTROL VALVE ASSY 
    1. Measure the resistance between the terminals.

      Standard: 6.9 to 7.9 Ω at 20°C (68°F) 

      If the result is not as specified, replace the OCV assy.

    2. Connect the battery's positive (+) lead to terminal 1 and negative (-) lead to terminal 2, and check the movement of the valve.
      NOTE: Confirm that the valve moves freely and does not become stuck in any position.

      If necessary, replace the OCV assy.

      HINT:

      If the valve cannot return properly because of foreign matter, a small pressure leak in the advanced direction may occur and a DTC will be output.

  3. INSPECT ACCELERATOR PEDAL ASSY 
    1. Measure the resistance between the terminals.

      Standard: 

      ACCELERATOR PEDAL ASSY RESISTANCE REFERENCE SPECIFICATIONS

      Tester Connection Specified Condition
      2 (VPA2) - 3 (EP1) 5.0 kΩ or less
      5 (VPA1) - 1 (EP2) 5.0 kΩ or less
      6 (VCP1) - 3 (EP1) 2.25 to 4.75 kΩ
      4 (VCP2) - 1 (EP2) 2.25 to 4.75 kΩ

      If the result is not as specified, replace the pedal assy.

  4. INSPECT THROTTLE BODY ASSY 
    1. Measure the resistance between the terminals.

      Standard: 

      THROTTLE BODY ASSY RESISTANCE REFERENCE SPECIFICATIONS

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      2 (M+) - 1 (M-) 20°C (68°F) 0.3 to 100 Ω
      5 (VC) - 3 (E2) 20°C (68°F) 1.2 to 3.2 kΩ

      If the result is not as specified, replace the throttle body assy.

  5. INSPECT ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR 
    1. Measure the resistance between terminals 1 and 2.

      Standard: 

      ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR TERMINALS RESISTANCE CHART

      Condition Specified Condition
      Approx. 20°C (68°F) 2.32 to 2.59 kΩ
      Approx. 80°C (176°F) 0.310 to 0.326 kΩ

      If the result is not as specified, replace the sensor.

      NOTE: If checking the engine coolant temperature sensor in the water, keep the terminals dry. After the check, wipe the sensor dry.

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.
