Toyota Engine Fault Codes
P00B0
Failure or errors in the operation of the turbine control module or a malfunction in the operation of the second-row turbine itself. A possible cause may be air leaks, so all pipes and connections of the system must be checked.
P0011
If on Toyota Avensis in the back of 270 or another model this code caught fire, this indicates an incorrect position of the engine camshaft.
Possible causes of the malfunction:
P0012
If an error occurs, P0012 indicates a malfunction of the valve timing control. The problem may result from a low level of engine fluid in the powertrain. The appearance of the code is sometimes due to improper installation of the camshaft, timing control drive or timing belt.
More on what to check:
- Strainers for the solenoid valve for the variable valve timing. These items may be clogged or torn, sometimes they are not installed correctly.
- Leakage of engine fluid at the seating surfaces of the valve seals of the valve timing device.
- Interruption of the supply of motor fluid to the solenoid valve of the drive mechanism.
- Timing drive belt integrity for wear.
P0015
Invalid valve timing, opening angle too late
P0016
Code P0016 appears as a result of a violation of the relationship between the camshaft and crankshaft. The cause of the problem may be related to the wear of the gears on the pulleys, as well as the malfunction of the sensors, but the second option is less likely. Sometimes the error appears as a result of wear and tension of the timing chain.
P0018
Code 0018 reports a phase mismatch in the gas distribution system
P0104
P0104 appears when there is a malfunction of the mass air flow sensor
P0170
Violation of the fuel balance in the engine. The user needs to find and eliminate the cause of depletion or enrichment of the combustible mixture.
P0401
Low efficiency in the operation of the exhaust gas recirculation system. If all the sensors are intact, then you need to check the operation of the pipes and hoses – the cause of the problem may be air leakage. If there is no leakage, the clamps should be checked, since one of them could weaken. If these steps did not help to eliminate the cause, then it may be the microprocessor module.
P0046
Combination P0046 reports a malfunction in the turbocharger pressure control solenoid valve. The cause of the error may consist in the failure of the drive pressure device.
P0048
Malfunction in the solenoid valve of the turbocharger pressure control system. The drive pressure device may be generating a signal that is too high.

P0172
Code P0172 indicates re-enriched air-fuel mixture in the engine cylinders
P0174
The combination P0174 appears as a result of over-depletion of the air-fuel mixture

P0400
Error P0400 indicates a malfunction in the exhaust gas recirculation system. The user needs to check all the sensors, as well as to verify the integrity of the pipes and hoses.
P0418
Malfunctions in the secondary air system. The user needs to perform the operation of the sensors associated with it, as well as make sure that there is no leakage and the integrity of the pipes.
P0420
The combination of P0 420 or 0420 appears in the case of low efficiency of the catalytic system, the problem is in the first engine bank. The problem appears within five minutes after starting the power unit. A possible cause of the problem may be a malfunction of the oxygen controller heating system.
P0430
Code P0430 is associated with reduced catalytic system performance. The problem should be sought in the second bank of the engine.

- damage to the fuel pump device.
P1272
Incorrect fuel line pressure, too low. In case of error Р1272 (1272), it is necessary to check the operation of the corresponding sensor and make sure that there are no leaks. Perhaps the cause of the problem is a clogged fuel filter installed in the pump. Sometimes the malfunction is a clogged engine nozzle.

P1310
Error codes P1310 or 1310 is associated with malfunctions in the third ignition coil. The cause of the problem may be the poor contact of the device with the on-board network or distribution node. In some cases, an error occurs as a result of damage to the high-voltage wire or failure of the spark plug.
P1349
P1349 or 1349 appears as a result of problems with the VVT valve. The device may be receiving an incorrect signal or the controller connector is damaged. A detailed diagnosis of the contacts and the integrity of the electrical circuits is required. The cause of the problem may be in the electronic engine control unit.

P2112
On Raf 4 vehicles of the first generation, 4WS, D4D and other versions, code 2112 reports problems in the operation of the throttle control drive. The cause of the malfunction may consist in the electric motor of the mechanism or sticking of the product in a closed or closed state.
P2118
The combination of P2118 (2118) indicates a malfunction in the operation of the throttle actuator. A detailed diagnosis of the node management system is required – ETCS. If the mechanism operates unstably, with a reduced voltage, this can lead to cutting off the current to the power unit. The ETCS fuse, battery, or battery terminals may be malfunctioning.P2149Code 2149 appears when a wiring is interrupted or another malfunction is associated with an incorrect signal. An incorrect pulse is detected on fuel injector B.
P2195
Code P2195 or 2195 appears when the air-fuel mixture is lean. The control unit indicates that the problem is due to readings from the first oxygen controller installed in row 1. The lambda probe itself may be operational.P2197The impoverishment of the air-fuel mixture.

Failure of the pressure sensor installed in the brake master cylinder
C1733
Error in the operation of the height control solenoid
C1776
Failure of the front speed sensor. The engine control unit captures an invalid signal from the controller.
