Toyota 2003 dip and bright headlights not working
Hi Athol, Im AL the owner of Big As Auto Repair.
Athol, the first thing to do is check all the fuses to make sure they are good. If they are all GOOD, then I would go buy one headlamp bulb just to see if maybe both high beams might be out. Only buy one bulb no sense in wasting money just in case this is not the problem. If you have high beams on the new bulb then go buy another bulb. If you DO NOT have high beam with the new bulb then I would suspect the high beam switch could be bad. NOTE: This is not always the problem because it could be in the wiring. Hope this helps and please visit my auto-repair-website at:

After adding gas to my Toyota Corolla 2002 LE the engine dies when I start the first time. I start again and it is cranking and after few sec it starts again...it's getting worse
It sounds like the fuel pump is going bad. If you had a fuel pressure tester you could check dead head pressure with the vehicle off and in the run position. A good operating pressure is about 41psi estimation. If you see the pressure drop right away and does not hold the pressure then the check ball or fuel pressure regulator is bad and you need to check those. Im giving proper diagonis procedures before buying somethimg you dont need. You can check a fuel pressure regulator with applying a vacuum to the valve and if the valve diaphragm holds pressure then it is good. Then all you have left is a bad checkball inside the fuel pump assembly. Unfortunately, if the ball valve is bad the whole fuelpump needs replaced. If you replace the assembly replace the filters too. A good tip to save the life of fuelpumps is to never allow the tank to run below a quarter tank because the fuel acts as a cooling system for the pump.

Got what I believe are the correct bolts but starter seems to be stuck.
You are correct, you have 2 bolts to remove, one on starter side and one on transmission bell housing side, With the battery disconnected put a socket on the crank pulley use a breaker bar and turn the engine forward a little bit to see if you can break the starter loose that way, it almost sounds like the starter is stuck in the engaged position on the flywheel, so by moving the engine a little bit from the crank side might help the starter disengage from the flywheel. DO NOT use a hammer or crow bar, you will only end up breaking the transmission housing then it'll get really expensive.

P1300 error
The P1300 code is for the ignition coil No.1 and is set when there is no IGF signal to the ECM during engine operation. Possible causes:
Ignition Coil No. 1 harness is open or shorted
- Ignition Coil No. 1 circuit poor electrical connection
- Faulty Ignition Coil No. 1
- Faulty Engine Control Module (ECM) God-Bless!

I had the positive battery end changed on my 2003 Toyota Corolla and when new ends were connected the alarm starts and won't stop...I can't turn it off by the remote....I can't even lock or unlock my
Its possible the remote code was changed after install which required a learn and the learn was erased when battery power was lost.
If this is an add-on aftermarket alarm system, the best hope is that somewhere under the dashboard or near the left kickpanel by the floor you see/find a small button mounted there. This is usually the most common install for the override switch by most alarm installers. Turning the key to the ON position then pressing the button and holding for 2-5 seconds will shut the alarm down in most cases if it has such a button.
If it does not have a button, or this is a factory alarm system, its possible the alarm control module fuse has blown or the module itself is stuck or failed, or the receiver for the remote is not seeing the remote. Recheck the connections at the battery, if its an add-on alarm there may have been a constant power loop attatched to the cable that is required to power the receiver/module and was accidentally left off. checking all fuses may also yield a blown fuse that feeds the alarm system controls.

Starting problem
It sounds like your problem is in the starter motor solenoid. That is what is responsible for engaging the starter motor to crank over the engine. Nowadays the solenoid and the starter motor are a unit. You could attempt to repair the solenoid but most technicians would go ahead and replace your starter (the solenoid and the motor).
However, having said that it is important that you check your connections to be good and clean and your battery to be charged.

Will this fit 2003 Corolla 1.4cc NO AIRCONDITION
pls check whether the Radiator fan is running when the ignition is switched on. If so, it means the Engine coolant temperature sensor is out. Replace this. Then the AC will work. This is one of the reason.
Check the thermister, pressure switch, wiring harnes and the ecu. the relay etc.,
