Toyota Sienna Service Manual: VC Output Circuit
DESCRIPTION
The ECM constantly uses 5 V from the battery voltages supplied to the +B (BATT)
terminal to operate the
microprocessor. The ECM also provides this power to the sensors through the VC
output circuit.
When the VC circuit is short-circuited, the microprocessor in the ECM and
sensors that are supplied
power through the VC circuit are inactivated because the power is not supplied
from the VC circuit. Under
this condition, the system does not start up and the MIL does not illuminate
even if the system
malfunctions.
HINT:
Under normal conditions, the MIL is illuminated for several seconds when the
ignition switch is first turned
to the ON position. The MIL goes off when the engine is started.

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,

DESCRIPTION
The Variable Valve Timing (VVT) system includes the ECM, Oil Control Valve
(OCV) and VVT controller.
The ECM sends a target duty-cycle control signal to the OCV. This control signal
regulates the oil

1. PRECAUTION OF WASHER NOZZLE ADJUSTMENT
Do not clean or adjust the washer nozzle with a
safety pin, etc. because;
the washer nozzle tip is made of resin and could
be damaged.
adjustment is not necessary because the
washer nozzle is a spray type.
