Hi all,
Just got myself a new old celica. Really nice drive with plenty of power. However as with all used cars there are a number of little things that need sorting. The one i am struggling with at the mo is the oil level light on the dash, it lights up as soon as the car moves from starting. It rarely goes out. It is not the oil pressure, but the oil level. I think this must be a faulty sender or duff connector as the oil level is correctly topped up with 10/30W oil. Anyone had anything similar? Also does anyone know the location of the oil level sender so i can check the plug contacts for fouling as i gather it will be under the car somwere. The car in question is a 94 generation6 celica GT, UK spec totaly standard, no mods. Engine is a 3S-GE 170ish bhp , dash type 180MPH 9K RPM. Sunroof, Hatchback. Also how do you stop the ABS light coming on? Does it indicate worn pads? as i think they are low. Cheers, Leigh.P |

If anybody has any pictures under the bonnet of a 3S-GE setup could they please post them as the years of dodgey mechanics working on my car has taken its toll i think. In perticular i'm interested in pictures showing the various sensors and wiring plugs/looms and were they go through supporting clips I know i'm asking a lot in here but i bet there are lots of people who want to know the same things. Afterall there is anougher thread on this forum with the exact same symtoms as i'm having. Unfortuatly the thread died out and the root of the problem was never really found or documented but it does say in that thread that the individual had an error code to say his airflow sensor was also duff. Hmmmm Anybody else had idle problems?
P.S I said earlier that the HT system was a bit neglected. After a clean there was no difference whatsoever and the engine has and never has had any signs of misfiring going on. Smooth as a baby bottem except for the idle. Leigh.P |
