Will your engine on a 1997 Avalon be damaged if the timing belt breaks before you replace it?
no, the valves are far enough away from the pistons for this not to be a problem You will be dead in the water where it breaks and need a tow. As a 'repair', expect to pay somewhat more for replacement than were you to schedule this item as a 'scheduled maintenance procedure'.
What is the meaning of the ABS dashboard symbol on the Toyota Corolla NZE?
The ABS Light came up in my Toyota Alex car what should the Mechanic verify and replace
often the "check engine" light will come on with no apparent problems in any car. there is an array of sensors, actuators, valves, and wiring that is monitored by a computer in the car. if the computer "sees" something that doesnt match a predetermined parameter, it will turn the light on. for example, if your gas cap was left loose, after certain driving conditions are met, the computer notices that there isn't any pressure in the gas tank. federal laws say at this point, there should be pressure there. so the computer turns the light on. there would be no problems with the engine itself, just the emission system, but it turns the "check engine" light on to warn you that your car car is no longer meeting federal standards for emissions.
Sometimes there is a false warning light.
To Check:Turn off all accessories and have the key out of the ignition. Disconnect the negative battery connection for about 30 seconds and then reconnect. This action resets the computer and may make the light go out if it was a false alarm. If the light comes back on, then it is possible that you have an actual problem.

How do you remove the crank pulley on a Toyota Avalon?
It's not easy. In my case the biggest problem was keeping the engine from turning while putting over 1000 ft-lbs of torque on it, to get it off. I ended up having to make my own tool. If you've got more money than time, or you're without the proper tools (lathe and mill), it's probably worth it to just buy the Special Service Tool from Toyota. Unfortunately the balancer doesn't have any large holes through it, through which you could jam a large screwdriver or whatever. And all you have to grip on is the 3/8" tall "spokes" that run from the center to the outside, through which the two puller holes go.
But I like working with metal, so here's what I did: I used my lathe to create a ring out of 1/4" plate steel, whose outside diameter is small enough to fit within inside diameter of the balancer, and whose inside diameter was big enough to accommodate the pulley bolt and its socket. Then cut a 3/4" bar of steel square stock long enough to fit the outside diameter of the ring. I used my mill to cut a slot in the bar along it's long side, wide enough accommodate the "spokes". Then I welded the bar onto inside of the ring (the side that contacts the balancer), with the slot facing toward the balancer, to fit over the spokes. Then I used the lathe again to cut the middle out of the bar. (I did this because I worried that if I cut the bar and welded the two pieces on separately, I'd never get it to line up properly on both sides of the ring.) Then I drilled two holes through the ring and the bar, to fit the two bolts from the harmonic balancer puller. You have to measure these carefully and get them straight - have to use a drill press or a mill - or you'll never get them to line up. I then welded a piece of square tubing onto the outside of the ring. I used the bolts from my harmonic balancer puller to bold the thing on (the bolts were too long so I had to make some spacers out of round tubing), put a steel bar through the tubing on the outside of the ring so the crank wouldn't turn.
I then had to use a breaker bar with an 8 foot cheater pipe to get it off. I estimate I had to put around 1000 foot pounds of torque on the bolt to get it to crack loose. Which is strange because the service manual says to torque it to 159 ft-lbs.

Where is the fuel pump relay on a 2000 Toyota Avalon?
One is under the hood Labeled EFI. You can check it by swapping the horn relay to the side of it. Same relay. Hello.
The circuit opening relay controls fuel pump circuit. When EFI main relay is energized, EFI main relay provides battery voltage to one side of circuit opening relay. Inspect this relay for fuel pump diagnosis. It is located at top corner of relay box, behind driver's side kick panel.
How do you defeat the hobgoblin in Avalon code?
You must surround it's Invincible Code (INVC) with Light Codes (LGHT). Then you can fight it like a normal monster.
You probaly have the air conditioning drain obstructed ( clogged) and the water / condensation generated by it is draining in your flloor ).
Just go unfder the car , locate the drain pipe and intruduce a wire or something similar to unclogg it.
Good luck (same thing happened to me )

How do you stop fog on car windows?
Usually it helps to heat the windows up using the heater in the car, depending on if the air inside the car is hotter or colder then the air outside of it.
answerstop making out in your car!! serouly, sometimes your heater core goes out and starts fogging you windshild but does not dump water if you need to fill your antifreeze regularly it may be a heater core other wise #1 is a good an
Answer
you can make your own antifogging glass cleaner by mixing 1 part vinegar with 3 parts water and mist on glass this also helps to reduce ice build up outside vehicles it really works.
windows will fog up if you are using recirculated air make sure you are taking in fresh air thru the vent Actually, while running the defrost, press the A/C switch. This will clear your windows in a matter of 10-15 seconds. Rain-ex makes an anti-fogging product.
What does P0125 obd2 code mean?
A code P0125 may mean that one or more of the following has happened: * Insufficient warm up time * Low engine coolant level * Leaking or stuck open thermostat * Faulty coolant temperature sensor Another Opinion. Some cars have 4 wire 02 sensors, with 4 wire 02 sensors P0125 can mean your wiring is faulty, as in you missed wired it or its grounded. It can also denote more than one 02 sensor malfunctions. The code often denotes a problem specific to the post cat 02 sensor/'s This is a fuel combustion sensory problem, usually not an engine coolant problem. Additional note: I agree. This is not a "coolant" problem. More often than not, it is an oxygen sensor on one of the banks. Best way is to invest in your own OBDII reader that has a "real time" read out of your car's signals. A P0125 will indicate that your engine is running lean as well. Check the output voltage signals that your oxygen sensors are giving out. I believe it should give a range signal of .04 to .08 voltage output depending on the idle or how much gas you put in. If one of the banks has a STEADY voltage output (i.e. no longer fluctuates), replace that particular O2 sensor. Under normal condition, it's suppose fluctuate when the engine is running. If the voltage signal no longer fluctuates, it's due for a replacement. The reason behind this is that the computer readout is starting to mis-calculate based on the wrong signal output of the bad sensor. It will then automatically try to compensate to balance the rich/lean gas ratio. But because the computer's calculation will never be correct due to the wrong voltage signal, you will then get P0125. DO NOT BUY A GENERIC BRAND when replacing an O2 sensor. That's what got me in to this mess. Stick with an OEM sensor. Try SPARKPLUGS.COM for O2 sensor replacement.
How do you reset the warning lights after jump starting a 2000 Avalon?
Sometimes a code reader can re-set. I had the problem of the computer not re-setting and consulted the factory mechanics manual. It required 4 miles of constant driving at 50 mph, then 11 minutes varying between 40 and 50 mph. Then stop, turn off ignition, turn on ignition and repeat. It worked for me - and I was able to pass smog.
Why abs light come on but there is no code detected for your 1997 Toyota Avalon xls?
Because error codes only diagnos engine problems. ABS is part of the braking system, not the engine.
I just had this problem with my 05 Highlander. $200 later (towing, labor and a $2 part) Turns out it was just a blown fuse. The ETCS 10amp to be exact. I'm not saying this is the reason you're having this problem... I'm just saying check it yourself before you spend the money to have someone else check it for you. Good Luck!

How do you change the air filter on a 1996 Avalon?
on the drivers side of the engine compartment there is a rectangular black plastic box. it has 4 clips near the corners. the clips are easily pushed off the tabs on the top of the box. once this is done, pulling up on the box exposes the filter. grab the filter, pull it out and install the new one in its place. Make sure you haven't pulled a hose loose at the back. Wrestling the top cover off the filter might pull one off the back behind the cover. They easily slip back on if you do.
