Toyota OBD1 Trouble Codes and Fault Code List >> Toyota Camry Celica Corolla MR2

Accessing Trouble Codes

  • Switch ignition ON. Do NOT start engine.
  • Corolla – jump data link connector (DLC) terminals T and E1 with a short lead 1
  • Camry – jump DLC terminals T and E1 with a short lead 2
  • MR2 – jump DLC terminals T and E1 with a short lead 3
  • Celica – jump DLC terminals T and E1 with a short lead 4
  • Count MIL flashes and compare with trouble code table below
  • First flashes of .5 second duration indicate ‘tens’, after a 1.5 second pause, next flashes of .5 second duration indicate ‘units’
  • A 2.5 second pause occurs between codes
  • After a 4.5 second pause, trouble codes will be repeated
  • NOTE: The MIL flashes once every 0.25 seconds if the system is correct
  • Switch ignition OFF
  • Remove jump lead

Clearing Trouble Codes

  • After the faults have been rectified, erase the trouble codes as follows:
  • Corolla – remove STOP fuse (15A) from LH kick panel fusebox for 10 seconds minimum 7
  • Camry – remove EFI fuse (15A) from underhood fusebox for 10 seconds minimum 8
  • MR2 – remove AM2 fuse (7.5A) from No.2 underhood fusebox for 10 seconds minimum 9
  • Celica – remove EFI fuse (15A) from underhood fusebox for 10 seconds minimum 10
  • Reinstall fuse
  • Repeat accessing procedure to ensure no data remains in ECM fault memory

Im working on a old 1989 toyota levin apex 4AGE. And the check engine light blinks 4 times in diagnostic mode then replays over and over. Why only 4? So that would be just 4 not 40 which doesn’t exist. Im mind boggled.

I believe it is probably 22. Seems how there is four blinks total. 22 is the Engine coolant temp sensor code. So maybe look there.

2016 Toyota Camry Le with AT(Automatic Transmission) & Inline 4 cylinder engine. I’m trying to find out what the AT diagnostic codes are included within the check engine light or the multi-function indicator lamp and whatever other AT diagnostic codes that are on this car. Does a malfunctioning torque converter and/or contaminated AT fluid show in the codes?

I have a 95 Toyota Camry LE it has the 6 cylinder 3.0 I tried jumping te1 and E1 under the hood and diagnostic you want is a ground but I found out on the left hand side of the steering wheel behind the change Trey is an OBD Port take me to O’Reilly’s it said it was took 8 minutes to read it and then after that it told me to turn the air conditioner off turn the car on Let It idle till the car got hot make sure the emergency parking brake was on and then turn the car off and then and then you go to get the codes and it says you have to wait 8 minutes I waited 8 minutes again and then it said to do the whole turn the air conditioner off let it idle until it gets hot make sure the emergency brakes on turn the key off and on excetera excetera it just says keep doing the same thing and it never gives me codes do you have to go through this whole process for five times to get the codes or is there something else going on here after two times I gave up and stopped shouldn’t take half an hour to get codes but I don’t know if anybody has any insight please let me know
