Toyota Tercel 90-94 1.5L 3E-E

Accessing Trouble Codes

Switch ignition ON. Do NOT start engine.
Jump DLC terminals T and E1 with a short lead 1
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
Switch ignition OFF
Remove jump lead
