6G Celicas Forums

Awesome thanks for the input Bitter, I'll have a look at dropping the pan and see what I can find.

I think it will just be easier if there is damage to replace it outright, never mucked around with an automatic transmission before.

Cheers.

Hi Guys,

I am having issues with a 1992 (not a 6gc but hey) with a 3sge and an automatic transmission which I recently picked up, the issue is that there is no reverse gear.

The car goes forward fine in Drive, 2 and L and oddly enough, it acts like its in drive when Neutral is selected.

I have jacked the car up and removed the gear selected from the transmission and selected gears by hand and watched the wheels/transmission react.

- In Park the wheels lock up fine.
- In reverse the wheels start to propel forward and then theres a bit of a clunk and the wheels stop.
- In Neutral the transmission act as if its in drive and tries to propel the car forward
- As above for D,2,L

I am think at this stage that the trans is toast but could there be any malfunction in just the selector?

The previous owner reckons they were reversing then slamming it into drive to skid it up. Idiots.

No one??

Hi Guys,

I have a 1993 (OBD 1) Celica which needs some love, I acquired it for cheap about 3 months ago and have been driving it for about a month since my AE101 was stolen.

Little bits have been done on it recently including a change from Auto to Manual which I did outdoors despite the cold, wet weather here in NZ lately.

The transmission change over went smooth however I have had a recurring pinging noise between 1 - 3k rpm which sounds like spark knock (this was present before the trans change). I am attempting to read the CEL to see if there are any codes stored, however, the light stays solid when I bridge TE1 and E1.

I have tried all sorts of different items to bridge the terminals however the light will not flash, it just stays on. I have never had an issue with getting the CEL to flash on any other toyotas I have had before.

The light doesn't come on during driving, which strikes me as odd due to the trans change and some electronics still not being finished, but that is beside the point, can someone please provide some insight of where to start with the light not flashing?

Thanks in advance,
Paul

Edit: I have tried another cluster gauge I had laying around and checked all the fuses, nothing happening there. On a side note, the Overdrive light flashes when these two are bridged...
