Replying to: kiawah (Aug 13, 2008 1:37 pm) Dont make sense.   Who can or what does reprogram a computer? Diagnostic yea. Reprogram, no.   My Q started running fast at idle once. It happened after I couldn't get it started. It cranked but didnt have spark then it finally started and ran at 1200 RPMs steady. I shut it off and looked in the code book for fast idle it said remove Ox sensor connector while running then reconnect. It dropped to normal 700 RPM. Maybe I reprogramed my computer and didnt know it.   It sounds more technical.

#55 of 57 battery cable question 2000 camry by michaelg210 Dec 02, 2009 (9:18 pm)
First of all let me say I don't feel so bad, my battery just died and i had it almost exactly 3 yrs.   My question is about the battery terminal connectors and battery cable to the terminal connector. My terminal connector needs to be replaced, (Toyota's set up sucks btw). However, there is an additional small wire piggybacked onto the connector. I am not sure of the thickness, perhaps 1/4 inch or about as thick as a telephone line.   I am wondering what this is for? It appears to run along the main positive battery cable and into a part of a wiring harness. Could it be for ground or some other reason? At one time the car had an alarm system, which I had uninstalled. Is it perhaps a leftover hot wire from a poor uninstall. Does it make sense the wire would coincide with the hot battery terminal plug wire?   Any information would help.   Thanks,   Replies to this message: wwest (Dec 04, 2009 9:53 am) michaelg210 (Dec 04, 2009 7:21 pm)

Replying to: michaelg210 (Dec 02, 2009 9:18 pm) 1/4" would probably be the alternator positive post output wire. It generally runs to the battery positive terminal at the starter solenoid or directly to the battery as above. Replies to this message: michaelg210 (Dec 04, 2009 7:21 pm)

Replying to: wwest (Dec 04, 2009 9:53 am) Thank you... I took it to a friend's shop and they replaced the terminals, but used the same OEM setup Toyota had, said it could / should not be changed.
