I have a 93 camry v6. It is obd1 so the local autoparts cant do it with the obd 2(96+up). I did this years ago on a 95 maxima by turning a screw on the engine computer and then counting the flashes. Is the camry the same? If so where is the computer hidden? Thanks:)
AutoZone has free online repair guides, it tells you how to pull the OBD-I codes. Autozone may still have an OBD-I reader you can borrow for free to pull the codes.
All models except the 1MZ-FE engine is equipped with OBD I till 1995. 1. Make sure the battery voltage is at least 11 volts. 2. Make sure the throttle valve is fully closed. 3. Place the gear shift lever in Neutral. Turn all accessories off. 4. The engine should be at normal operating temperature. 5. Using a jumper wire, connect terminals TE1 and E1 of the Data Link Connector 1 (DLC1). 6. Turn the ignition switch ON, but do not start the engine. Read the diagnostic code by the counting the number of flashes of the malfunction indicator lamp. 7. Codes will flash in numerical order. If no faults are stored, the lamp flashes continuously every 1/2 second. This is sometimes called the Normal or System Clear signal. 8. After the diagnosis check, turn the ignition OFF and remove the jumper wire. 9. Compare the codes found to the applicable diagnostic code chart. If necessary, refer to the individual component tests in this section. If the component tests are OK, test the wire harness and connectors for shorts, opens and poor connections.
