Unfortunately all I have it a Haynes manual for my '94 Camry V6. The engine lamp has come on. I got out the Haynes to check the diagnostic code -- no luck.
It begins with an impossible instruction. I says, " . . verify that . . . the transaxle is in Neutral." Then it says, "Turn the ignition switch to ON."
On my car you cannot put the transmission in "Neutral" until the
*AFTER* the ignition switch is on. So, this instruction cannot be followed.Assuming the possible order is correct, after the car is in Neutral (not running) it says to jumper between terminals TE1 and E1 in the test terminal under the driver's dash.
The Check Engine lamp is supposed to begin to flash. It does not flash when I jumper these terminals. It stays on constantly, just as it does when the terminals are not jumpered.
Anyone know what might account for this?
The test terminal illustrated in the manual is the one under the dash, but it talks about another such test terminal in the engine compartment. Thinking the dash terminal might be defective, does anyone know where the one under the hood is located?
