  1. I know the Gen 3s got OBD-I, but the Gen 4s and onwards got OBD-II... just the Australian proprietary one though. It's slightly harder for me to read OBD-I codes, but hell, I'd rather OBD-I anyday of the week :P Can at least adjust heaps of stuff without the car whinging about it :yahoo:

    Thanks Whip.

  2. Hi all

    Hopefully some one out there will be able to help me out with this.

    I currently have a 98 Camry CSi SXV20R, 4Cyl 2.2L 5spd Transmission, I have had it since new and it would have to be the best car I have had. The only major (actually minor) problem I had was about 12 months ago the Alternator failed. Any way this is what I am after:

    1. Overthe years the centre console lights, those around the vent control, temperature control, fan control have all died overthe past couple of years. I have been able to remove the moulding but have not been able to work out how to replace these lights, does any one know how to without sending the car back to Toyota

    2. Does any one know if the ECU monitor the fuel flow. What I wouldlike to do is to intercept this so that it could be read by a PC to monitor how many litres have been used

  3. Hey Does anyone know how to turn off the beeping noise in the corolla 09,

    e.g when driving and the seatbelt is not worn by the passenger or driver......( i tend to not wear a seatbelt whilst looking for a car park....i have a swipe card carpark access at work and cause of the turning angle i have to take the seatbelt off and lean out of the window to swipe the card then i drive off and it fkin starts beeping!)

    another e.g when i turn the car off with the keys still in the ignition then i open the car door it starts beeping.

    i have tried the car manual for instructions and websites but theres nothing on it

    I have driven the car while its beeping hoping that it would eventually stop however it doesnt and the sound changes to a MORE ANNOYING BEEPING SOUND with each beep lasting longer!

    Can some1 help?!

    The majority of new cars that have the audible reminder for the seat belt consists of Two switches. One is located in the seat, the other is gernerally located in the seatbelt catch. Have a look under you seat, you should see a small wiring harness, find where it connects to on the seat and remove it. Make sure if you have an electronic seat, that you dont remove the wiring for the seat position, height, tilt heating etc..

    This switch should be a normally Open (N0) switch, that is when you sit on the seat it closes, if you find you have removed the correct wiring and the beeping continues with out you sitting on the seat, you will need to short the two wires together.

    WARNING: As this is a safety requirement, and it is fitted to your vehicle, any modification to this could result in a defect sticker, or even prevent you getting your CTP in states where you need to take the car for CTP inspection
