ECT stands for Electronically Controlled Transmission. When you push the button in, there should be a light on the dash that says "ECT POWER". This changes the normal shift times (based on engine vacuum, rpm, and throttle position) to a later point. This means simply that the engine rpms will go higher before shifting to a higher gear when you're accelerating. It helps build speed more quickly but uses more gas to do so.
You push the ECT PWR button (located left to the radio) to the "Off" position.
where is the ect pwr button located on a 1997 avalon? the light came on and my husband assumed he must have pushed a button by mistake.
In a 1997 Toyota RAV4, the ECT (Electronically Controlled Transmission) button is typically located on the center console, near the gear shifter. It may be labeled as "ECT" or "ECT Power." Pressing this button activates a mode that enhances engine performance for better acceleration and response.
Its near the gear....a button with ECT written on it...
In a 2002 Toyota Tacoma, the ECT (Electronic Control Transmission) button is typically located on the gear shift lever. It may be labeled as "ECT" or "ECT Power." When activated, this button enhances transmission performance for better acceleration by adjusting the shift points. If you're having trouble locating it, consult your owner's manual for a diagram or more specific information.
mine is a button on middle council, by emergency brake. says ect
The ECT (Electronic Control Transmission) button on a 1999 Toyota RAV4 is used to enhance the vehicle's transmission performance. When activated, it changes the shift points for the transmission, allowing for higher RPMs before shifting, which can improve acceleration and power, particularly in situations like towing or driving on steep inclines. This feature can help provide a sportier driving experience by optimizing the transmission for performance rather than fuel efficiency.
Below the left Air Conditioner vent on a 2004 Tacoma.
makes you explode and you go in "turbo mode" aka ejector seat
press the button that says ECT PWR ON/OFF !! It's on the centre console (close to the gearstick)
holds first and second gear longer for more acceleration with button on, if you floor it then you've already defeated it's purpose.
In a 2005 Toyota Camry, the ECT (Electronically Controlled Transmission) PWR button is located on the center console, typically near the gear shift lever. It may be labeled as "ECT PWR" or simply "PWR." Pressing this button activates a performance mode that enhances acceleration by adjusting the transmission's shift points.
