Well... haven"t had this happened in a while but the engine just came on. Celica still running fine.
Hope nothing major. I'm guessing the O2 sensor?? Anyone had this happened on your GT's? ('99 GT). |

QUOTE (Jmk91 @ Feb 15, 2015 - 10:52 PM)  Could be any sensor honestly but most likely your o2 sensor. Just run down to auto zone or advanced and they will run a test and tell you the issue. If it is your o2 sensor don't buy one from autozone... They'll try and give you bosch and its junk on imports.. Just order a denso o2 sensor online. Auto zone can get you denso but you'll pay 30$ more than what you would've off amazon. I just did this haha. first off you have a 99, which is ODBII. you need an ODBII scanner to get the code. without it you have no idea what caused the CEL. you could be wasting money on a sensor you dont need. QUOTE (Box @ Feb 16, 2015 - 12:53 AM) Be like me and buy something for $2 or so and then ask as they're ringing it up, that way they're more obligated to do such and you don't feel like a jerk.  Then go home and buy what you need off Amazon, eBay, or RockAuto. I know with the OBDI cars there is a way to find the codes yourself by jumping two pins in the diagnostic port and it'll flash the CEL to give the codes. Rather or not that was carried over to OBDII I can't recall at the moment.pre ODBII cars you stick a paperclip and jumper Te and E1 in the diagnostic box. the CEL will flash the codes. -------------------- 2001 Celica GT-S Turbo
