Toyota Sienna Service Manual: Check for intermittent problems
1. CHECK FOR INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS
HINT:
For use of the intelligent tester only: Inspect the vehicle's ECM using check mode.
Intermittent problems are easier to detect with an intelligent tester when the ECM is in check mode. In check mode, the ECM uses 1 trip detection logic, which is more sensitive to malfunctions than normal mode (default), which uses 2 trip detection logic.
(a) Clear the DTCs (See page ES-39).
(b) Switch the ECM from normal mode to check mode using an intelligent tester (See page ES-43).
(c) Perform a simulation test (See page IN-35).
(d) Check and wiggle the harness(es), connector(s) and terminal(s) (See page IN-30).
How to proceed with

HINT:
The intelligent tester can be used in steps 2, 3, 4, 6 and 9.

ECM Power Source Circuit
DESCRIPTION
When the ignition switch is turned to the ON position, the battery voltage is
applied to terminal IGSW of
the ECM. The ECM MREL output signal causes a current to flow to the coil,
closing the contacts of the EFI
relay and supplying power to terminal +B of the ECM.
If the igniti ...
