Toyota Cressida

It is practically impossible to reach up behind the dash to change the bulbs. Remove the trim around the instrument panal and you should be able to pull it out enough to change the bulbs. You may have to disconnect the speedometer to get it out far enough.

Look in your owner's manual and find out exactly where the fuse panel is located. Don't have an owner's manual then you need to get one. Here are sources. http://www.samarins.com/maintenance/manual.html You can also try E-Bay and a salvage yard.

I have the same fault code on my 2003 Corolla. From my research, the code means that the car's computer is sensing that there has been a drop in catalytic converter efficiency. This is determined by the computer by comparing the signal of the O2 sensor mounted before the catalytic converter with the signal of the O2 sensor mounted after the catalytic converter. If the two signals are too similar, this means that the catalytic converter is not doing it's job. A number of things can be the cause of the fault code:

# Bad catalytic converter - It's reached the end of its useful life. It's time to replace it. # Engine leaks oil and/or coolant into exhaust- Oil and/or coolant is leaking and is clogging the catalytic converter. Engine seals and gaskets should be checked. Engine compression should also be tested. Any leaks should be repaired and the catalytic converter should be replaced. # O2 sensor/s bad - Although O2 sensor failure usually gives it's own fault code, not everything is perfect. Sensor's should be checked anyway just in case the computer did not catch the fault. In this case sensor/s need replacing. I hope this information comes in handy. Unfortunately, what ever your specific situation is, it is most likely a costly one.

There are 2 excellent write-ups on the procedures for replacing the shifter cable, one for floor shift and column shift each, at the Taurus Car Club site.

underneath your engine intake manifold or plenum, it's on the right side of the engine. Look below. This is a difficult removal process if it is the original fuel filter the connecting screws or fuel line is tightly secured. good luck.

I had the same problem with my 1989 Toyota cressida and when I had it looked at they said it was because the temperature gauge kept getting stuck and when it got loose it would fly way up into the red line and then return to normal like yours, you should get it replaced so that your car would send out unnerssisary engeint coolent

CHECK THE FUSE THATS UNDER THE HOOD

You will need to remove the gauges and dash . I did it at a junk yard it was lots of work . Also , you will not need unusual tools on the upside.

On the floor at the left of driver seat, next to the gaz doors switch.

Your 89 Toyota cressida is telling you that it doesn't think you have your seat belt fastened. So either you don't or, the switch in the seat belt buckle is not making contact.

If it exists, it should be in the fuse box under the hood (next to driver's side by the windshield). There should be a diagram on the fusebox cover to show you which one it is exactly.

if you are sure your car has a carbuerator and not fuel injection like all newer cars,the needle would be attached to the topside of the float in the bottom of the carb, its purpose is to slow or speed up fuel flow into the carb. hope i helped, but i think that year of car may be fuel injected, sharris@maplenet.net if you have any questions

Electrolysis between the dissimilar metals of the aluminum head and the thread of the spark plug, has caused a corrosion which has bonded the two parts together. You should try a spray penetrant such as WD-40, but this may only be partially effective. Never-the-less, repeatedly soak the bases of the spark plugs. Put a socket with breaker bar and tap it repeatedly with a hammer, but only relatively light blows. Alternatively you can use a manual impact driver and impact socket, but again avoid forceful blows. Also refrain from using an air wrench. Hopefully, by repeating this process over time, you can work the spark plugs loose.

If you can't loosen up some of the plugs your alternatives are to leave the plugs as they are, take it to a shop, or continue to force the plugs loose. If you continue to force the plugs loose, you will likely end up stripping out the softer, aluminum threads in one or more of the spark plug holes. Fortunately they manufacture spark plug thread inserts that include a tap tool to provide an oversize threaded hole for the insert to thread into, to restore the hole. You can do this on your own. If you take it to a shop, the same thing will probably happen to them, and they will install the same thread insert or a helical insert which requires specialized tools and may be superior to the diy thread insert.

When/if you finally replace the spark plugs, apply a liberal coating of anti-seize or never-seize; two competing products that do the same thing. These compounds form a thin dielectric film between the two metals that inhibit electrolysis, and have a sacrificial metallic component that is acted upon by the harder metal instead of the aluminum cylinder head. Any other bolts that you install in the aluminum engine or other aluminum parts should be liberally coated with this compound.

the 7mge is the best all round engine for performance the 5mge is better for reliabilty but if u put a 1jz-gte engine in it u will have a very reliable and powerfull car

100k miles is suggested, but if you're getting terrible gas mileage, you notice some arc'd spots on the spark plug wires, you notice a powder like coating around the wires / distributor, or something seems off. Just pop the 2 screws for the cap and check to see if the rotor is burnt up at the end. It'll look like an electrical burn on a screw driver if you ever arc'd it across your battery. Make sure you mark your wires if they need to be pulled off of the cap to ensure proper re-connection later on.

pick it up and look at it's little dipstick!!

I just had a headlight replaced in my 2000 Toyota Rav 4 by Walmart. $9 was the charge to install a $5 headlight.

-- To replace the headlight in a 1994 Toyota Corolla you can do it yourself. There is a difference between the passenger side and the driver side. The driver side you will have to remove the plastic air intake. It is right behind the light. There are two light bulbs. I removed the easier one. One one closest to the center is the high-beam light. That was the wrong one. More likely you need to replace the low-beam bulb. To replace either one, you first remove the electrical connector. There is a tab in the center of the electrical connector which you press to release the plug. Don't force the plug off. Next you twist the plastic holder counter clockwise about a quarter turn. The plastic holder should come out with the bulb. It is a halogen bulb. You need to get an exact replacement. The replacement bulb is 9006. Given the previous comment, I got it at WalMart too. The replacement is the bulb and the plastic holder. And if you remove the bulb and drive the car make sure no dirt gets into the hole. To install the new bulb do the reverse of the removal. Put the new plastic holder a quarter of a turn from where you want it to end-up. Then turn it clockwise until it is locked in. Push the electrical wire to the end of the plastic holder. And you are done.

Best to replace - after initial torque setting it is difficult to get an accurate setting a 2nd time (threads have been stretched)

Once you remove the wheel - you should have access to two bolts on the inboard side (side toward the center of the car) of the caliper itself. Once you remove those bolts, the caliper should wiggle right off the rotor. Be mindful of the flex hose and rubber bushings on the caliper itself. If you need access to the rotor - make sure to carefully support the caliper, via a rope or wire to make sure that the flex hose does not have any load on it.

Lucky for you, the 2001 Toyota Corolla comes with a timing chain and is good for the life of the engine. No need to change it.

How to replace 1998 Toyota corolla headlights

I'll take it that its a basic belt drive alternator with a mount and cables running to and from it. With that, take the belt off that drives the pulley, and whatever belts that prevent you from taking the one you need off. ** Before you start working, ensure the battery is not connected for safety and disconnect the +(red) cable from the alternator and whatever other cables are attached. Unbolt the alternator from its mounts and MAKE SURE the new alternator has the same output and design or you could burn up a lot of electronics and even your battery. Good Luck -- Boost
