Sensor Information
Crank/Cam Sensor
This engines uses a Crank Position Sensor and 2x Cam Position Sensors (1x per bank).
Early 1UZ
These models use a 12x tooth crank trigger and a 1x tooth cam trigger. Configuration is shown below.
1UZ VVTi and all 2UZ and 3UZ
These models use a 36-2 tooth crank trigger and a 3x tooth cam trigger. Configuration is shown below.
12x on the Left and 36-2 on the Right
Crank Sensor
A Reluctor crank position sensor is used.
Cam Sensor
Reluctor cam sensors are used. 1UZ motors have these located under the cam drive pulley on each bank. The cam
pulley has a backing plate with a single tooth.
VVTi models
These use the same sensor arrangement with a 3-tooth backing plate on the cam pulley.
Distributor
The 1UZ-FE has twin distributors. These do not contain any advance mechanism and are simply there to distribute
spark to each cylinder.
Ignition Coils and Igniters
Early 1UZ models have 2x igniters and 2x coils. The igniters have the same wiring.
All models use Constant Charge with a Falling output edge.
Direct Fire Coil Models
All models with Direct Fire ignition feature coils with internal igniter modules.

DBW Throttle System
Models that have the ETCS-i throttle system are not supported by Haltech.
Models that use a normal cable throttle, or have full DBW (no throttle cable) are supported.
All variants use a single throttle body.

MAP Sensor
These engines do not come with a MAP sensor.

Use the internal MAP sensor that comes with your ECU. For higher boost levels an external MAP sensor should be
used instead, connected to a spare AVI.
Variable Cams
Engines with VVTi have Toyotas Gen 3 continuously variable cam control. The ECU uses a 3x tooth cam sensor on
each inlet cam to know the position of the camshafts relative to the crank position. A duty signal is sent to each cam
control solenoid. The solenoid regulates oil pressure being fed into the cam control mechanism to advance or retard the
cams to their target position using closed-loop. They cannot be sent to a specific position using open loop.
Idle Valve
The cable throttle 1UZ engine uses a Stepper Motor idle valve controlled via the Stepper Outputs. It will not work on
Elite 550/750/950 ECU models.

Wiring is not polarity sensitive

1 Any Spare AVI*
2 Signal Ground
An AVI with a selectable Pullup should be used. If not and external 1k pullup to 5V should be connected.
Calibration: Use "Temperature - xxxxxxx.cal"

Created for Haltech ECUs using a 1k pullup to 5V
Air Temp
An air temperature sensor is incorporated in the MAF Sensor. If the MAF is deleted then an external Air Temperature
Sensor needs to be installed in the intake, preferably in the plenum near to where the MAP sensor connects.
Haltech 1/8" NPT Air Temp Sensor
Wiring is not polarity sensitive.
Calibration: Use "Temperature - GM Air Sensor.cal"

Created for Haltech ECUs using a 1k pullup to 5V
Knock Sensor
The 1UZ has 2x resonant style single-wire knock sensors located in the intake valley near the starter motor. Although
they can be used they are not as reliable as newer donut style resonant sensors.
Recommended Knock Sensor. Haltech HT-011100
MAF Sensor
Although most users of Haltech ECUs will be deleting the MAF, it is possible to use a MAF if you prefer. It also
incorporates an Air Temperature Sensor, so if the MAF Sensor is removed a new Air Temperature Sensor must be
installed in the intake.
1UZ Early
The early 1UZ use a Frequency based MAF Sensor. It is not a normal 0-5V signal.

O2 Sensors
1UZ engines have 4x Narrowband 4-wire O2 sensors. Narrowband sensors are not useful for tuning and are used
primarily for catalytic converter efficiency.
O2 Sensor Wire Colours Haltech Connection
Black (Signal) AVI 1 or AVI 6

White 12V+ Switched
White Chassis Ground (not Signal Ground) or Spare Output
It is possible for the ECU to supply a duty signal to the Heater Ground, with many OEM ECUs doing this. Haltech
ECUs can also perform this task and a spare Injector or Stepper Output should be used.
O2 Sensors can use various wattage heater elements, with 12W and 18W being common. For 18W units it is advised to
not supply more than ~50% duty to prevent excessive current being applied to the ECU output.
For post-cat sensors it is advised to not enable the heater ground control until the engine is at full operating temperature.
This is to prevent moisture in the exhaust from a cold started engine from damaging the heater element. Many OEM
strategies involve not enabling the heater until the engine have been driven above a set speed for a set amount of time.
Adding a Haltech Wideband Kit (highly recommended)
For correct operation a Haltech WB2 kit is highly recommended for this application, with the provided 4.9 sensors
replacing the pre-cat sensors. Swapping the sensors is accessed only from below the vehicle. Sensors use a 22mm
socket or spanner to remove and replace.
Vehicle Speed Sensor
This engine uses a Reluctor Vehicle Speed sensor.

Signal - Signal Ground
Injector Data
Early 1UZ engines have only 4x injector outputs from the OEM ECU, run as semi sequential. They are joined in the
OEM wiring as 1+7, 2+8, 3+5, 4+6
1UZ VVTi and all 2UZ and 3UZ engines have sequential injection
Flow
The injector flow rate is measured with the injectors held wide open at 100% duty. For fuel systems with a fixed
regulator pressure (often returnless systems) that is not referenced to manifold pressure the flow needs to be mapped
over Manifold Pressure for accurate tuning.
Early 1UZ-FE have 240cc/min injectors.
Dead Time
When an injector is commanded to open for a certain amount of time, the dead time is the amount of time the injector is
not actually open during this period. It covers the time to energise the solenoid and begin to open and the time to close
as well. There are also transient periods during which the injector is opening and closing where fuel flow is not at full
capacity so this lost peak flow period is also taken into account.
OEM ECU Information
There are a number of different ECU connectors found on the 1UZ, 2UZ and 3UZ ECUs.
