REQUIRED TOOLS

TIS Techstream, P/N TSPKG1 or TSLITEDLR01

(NOTE: Software version 7.10.030 or later is required)

GR8 battery Diagnostic Station P/N 00002-MCGR8

NOTE: The diagnostic tester is not recommended for flash reprogramming with this calibration file. Please use TIS Techstream or an approved J2534 interface to perform this update. Visit techinfo.Toyota.com for more information regarding J2534 reprogramming.

REPAIR PROCEDURE

  1. Using TIS Techstream, check for stored DTCs. If only DTC P0136 is present, proceed to Step 2.
  2. Remove and replace the oxygen sensor (Bank 1, Sensor 2).
  3. Check for the Authorized Modifications label affixed to the vehicle (underside of LH rear hood area). Confirm if the HV ECU calibration has been updated. If the calibration ID listed is not the latest HV ECU calibration, proceed to Step 4.
  4. Flash reprogram the HV ECU. Note: The GR8 battery diagnostic station must be used in Power Supply Mode to maintain battery voltage at 13.5 volts while flash reprogramming.
  5. Test drive to confirm proper operation.
