2uzfe Ecu Pinout File
The ECU pinout for the Toyota 2UZ-FE V8 engine varies significantly between model years, particularly with the introduction of ETCS-i (Electronic Throttle Control System-intelligent) in late 2002 and VVT-i (Variable Valve Timing with intelligence) around 2005-2007. Core Pinout Functions (2004–2006 Standard)
The Toyota 2UZ-FE V8 engine is a legendary powerplant, known for its million-mile durability in the Land Cruiser, Sequoia, and Tundra. However, when it comes to engine swaps or troubleshooting electrical gremlins, the ECU (Engine Control Unit) wiring is often the biggest hurdle. Because this engine spanned over a decade, the pinouts changed significantly with the introduction of VVT-i and Drive-by-Wire systems.
A Critical Disclaimer (Please Read)
Toyota changed the 2UZ-FE pinout significantly over its 11-year run (1998-2009). There is no single universal pinout. 2uzfe ecu pinout

Since there are over 40 different 2UZ ECU revisions, do not trust a random PNG on a forum (including the generic one I just described). Instead:
Part 2: Decoding the ECU Connectors (Physical Layout)
The 2UZ-FE ECU is typically located behind the glove box (Land Cruiser) or under the passenger kick panel (Tundra/Sequoia). It features three main connectors: The ECU pinout for the Toyota 2UZ-FE V8
