Fuse is located below instrument panel on left side, it is labeled CIG and is 15A

Fuse is located below instrument panel on left side. It is labeled GAUGE and is a 10A fuse.

There are no listings for this code anywhere, are you sure you have the correct code?

Daytime Running Lights (DRL) feature only activates the front low beam headlights. The rear parking light are not turned on by the DRL, they only come on in dark conditions or by selecting the light manually.

this would probably be caused by a warped brake disk.
it could possibly be caused by play in the ball joints, or play in the steering rack, but this would normally give shaking under power as well, and give uneven wear patterns on the front tyres.

you may need to get the brakes checked by a professional as a warp in the disk may be too small to see by eye, and the disks should be measured using a dial guage to ensure that they are still true

This idle condition is normal for a cold start, the computer is controlling the idle for proper fuel burn. It is not necessary to wait five minutes for the idle to come down. Allow about one minute before putting into gear and driving.

I would not recommend going to Jiffy Lube for a car problem. This code indicates a lean condition in the fuel burning, and this can be caused by a number of things. This can only be diagnosed by an experienced technician with the proper instruments.

is it manual or automatic gearbox?

The choice in pads will be totally up to you. The ceramic pads offer extended life, with little to no brake dust, where the metallic pads are just the opposite. I would recommend that you use ceramic pads, you will get your money's worth out of them.

When you open your hood it's located on the front center left hand lower part of the engine.

Hi,
50000 km for rubber CVT and 100000 km for metal/ss CVT. Please check the CVT material you are using.

Shift Solenoid B Control Circuit High

Areas to check:

• Short in shift solenoid valve No. 2 circuit
• Shift solenoid valve No. 2
• ECM

• Check the shift solenoid valve No. 2 when DTC P0976 and P0977 is output.
• Check harness and connector between ECM and shift solenoid valve No. 1 or No. 2.
  

To check the Shift Solenoid Valve No. 2:

1. Jack up the vehicle.
2. Remove the oil pan.
3. Remove the shift solenoid valve No. 1 or No. 2.
   

CHECK:

1. Measure the resistance between the solenoid connector terminal and the body ground. Standard: 11 - 15 W at 20°C (68°F)
2. Connect the battery positive lead to the solenoid connector terminal and the battery negative lead to the solenoid body ground. Standard: Solenoid operation noise is produced. If not, Replace solenoid valve. If the Solenoid operation noise is produced, Check and replace the ECM.

Need to have the fuel pressure tested, scan for any codes.

the toyota corolla is the WORLDS most reliable car,even more reliable than mercedes....and its cheap for bits(breakers yards) so dont worry, its mainly those trying to knock japanese cars that put them down.

Call the dealer. Buy a new key.

I recommend giving it a major tune up plugs,wires,distributor cap and rotor and an air filter.I would do this before doing anything else.If it were a problem with the ignition system or the emission system your check engine light would come on.So try a tune up first so that you give yourself a starting point for future trouble shooting.

check for a bad rim ,move front wheels to back,worn tie-rod ends,(checked during wheel-alignment)

The entire car is on a 12 volt system...I think what you need is the amperage. Cig lighters should be on a 20 amp (yellow) fuse but not alway...sometimes it's 15. When you locate the blown fuse, it will indicate what amperage it is imprinted on the fuse in white. If it is not marked for whatever reason, there should be a schematic imprinted somewhere near the fuse panel possibly on the back of the cover. If no schematic, it should be in your operator's manual.

Here are some very common causes for the engine light to com on.

1. Low fluids, make sure all of your fluid levels are where they should be, particularly the oil.

2. MAF, ( mass air flow ) sensor. This controls the fuel/air mix ratio to the engine.

3. Oxygen sensor, there are 2, ( front means before the catalytic converter, back means after the catalytic converter ) The front measure fuel/air mix, the back measure the emmisions from the fuel/air mix and tells the computer what adjustments need to be made to the fuel/air mix ratio.

I hope this helps you.
