#66 of 85 RE: Toyota CEL [ashleydee] by jrfiero Dec 30, 2008 (6:33 am)
Replying to: ashleydee (Dec 29, 2008 7:16 am) Could you please be more specific? What aspect of emission control which causes the CEL is covered by a recall?

i can't remember the exact code my CEL gave. if you call your dealer and give them your VIN number they can tell you if all of your recall updates have been done. Replies to this message: jrfiero (Dec 31, 2008 6:05 am)

Replying to: ashleydee (Dec 30, 2008 7:05 am) So, absent any specific information on this supposed CEL-related recall, and absent notification by Toyota that a person's vehicle is subject to a recall, I'd ignore this thread and proceed with normal diagnosis of a CEL.
#69 of 85 01 HL CEL, VSC & TRAC light after washing? by woodstoc Mar 28, 2009 (3:57 pm)
My wife's 01 HL's CEL, VSC & TRAC lights came on after a car wash sometime ago. After a couple of days, the lights went out so I figured that a connection got wet and caused the lights.    Buy a pressure washer about three weeks ago, and the wife decided to wash the HL with it. Lo and behold, here they are again on the dash. After two weeks, I disconnected the battery and restored. Lights went away. After a few times of driving, they are back on and the SUV cannot be inspected.    Any ideas of where a connection might be, that could cause this so I can begin to troubleshoot? (The engine compartment was not opened for the wash)    Thanks for any replies.
#70 of 85 CEL codes P-1130 & P-1135 by woodstoc Mar 29, 2009 (5:27 pm)
01 Highlander, had Autozone pull these two codes. I bought a Haynes manual, but the codes do not run into the 1000's, they show to be all in the hundreds.   Can anyone tell me the meaning of these two codes, and possible solutions? I posted about washing the car and having these show up. I think something must have gotten wet to cause the codes.   Thanks.

Replying to: woodstoc (Mar 29, 2009 5:27 pm) Those are O2 sensor codes. Search this thread and you'll find plenty of info (but not about them being water-related). Replies to this message: woodstoc (Mar 30, 2009 6:30 am)

Replying to: jrfiero (Mar 30, 2009 5:13 am) Thanks, I searched the net last night and found the codes. It appears that the bank 1 O2 sensor has an issue. I'm thinking that water entered the elec connector and possibly shorted it out or caused an issue. I'll try that first, then replace the sensor if necessary.   Thanks for your reply.

Replying to: ashleydee (Dec 19, 2008 7:22 am) I'm having the same problem with my 2003 Highlander, the Check Engine light keeps coming on. We've paid over $400 to have the 1st oxygen sensor fixed just a month ago, now the dealer is saying the 2nd one is out, another $400. Where can I find details on this recall - does it affect my model? I have an 8cyl AWD, thx for any help, this seems like an expensive issue.

Replying to: eanders (Oct 14, 2009 6:03 am) do you know what the error message is when your check engine light comes on? if it says something like "emissions" then it's possibly the same problem i had. call the dealer and give them your VIN number, ask if there were any recalls for your vehicle. since the day i had mine fixed, i haven't had my CE come back on! thankfully!!

Replying to: ashleydee (Oct 14, 2009 6:38 am) When the 1st sensor blew in August, it was the heater circuit, bank 1 sensor 1, error msg PO135. Yesterday it was the heater circuit, bank2 sensor 1, error PO155. In checking online it seems only the 4cyl models were recalled, I have a 6cyl. I contacted the GM at the dealership yesterday to plead my case; the Svc Mgr seemed indifferent in resolving the issue. If each one of these sensors costs $400 to fix, with 4 of them in 2 "banks", that's a conceivable $1600 cost repair for each bank, yikes! Of course if they are not fixed, I'm learning it could be even more expensive if the catalytic converter is affected. WIth only 71K miles on this car, I feel I'm not getting that famous Toyota dependabililty.
