    OMG 1500 dlls!. Thing is I would need an ECM that has the corrected solenoid values. Corollas from 2005-07 have this problem and it has been bulletined. Man I think I am out of luck this time :(

  • topa780906 Sep 10, 2008

    Ok, I managed to get the warranty made good. Part was going to be $989 USD, I suggest that everyone with a Corolla 2005-07 go and have this replaced regardless of it having coming up. Toyota will replace it at clients request.

    I just had my 07 Corolla repaired for this. The ECM module caused complete loss of power at any given time. Accelerator did noting. Very dangerous. I only had 6000 miles left on the 36000 mile warranty. Fortunately I did not have to pay or it would have been $1300 on a 20month old car! Toyota should be forced to inform all buyers of these models. I now have serious concerns and wonder if I shouldn't trade for a Hyundai with 100k warranty.

    I had exact same problems. I was driving about 65 miles per hour and engine shut down. I believe the warranty for the ECM or EUC is about 5years/100000 miles. unforturnately, I had to replace the ECM twice. I hady 61000 miles and I didn't have to pay anything both times. I bought my car in march of 2006. If you car is less than 5 years old and under 100,000 miles, your dealership should take care of it.

    I was driving the other day. The engine light came on...when I noticed it, the battery and then oil lights came on. Then the whole thing shut down - I just made it safely to the side of the road. I had it towed to a nearby garage and they diagnosed it to be the bad ECM. Since it was under warranty, I had it towed to Toyota. They knew all about it! So if it's a known problem, why aren't they recalling? Luckily I was on a side road, but if it had been a highway there definitely would have been an accident! It's going to take them almost a week to fix it once they get the part.

    This is 2007 Corolla with 22K miles on it.

    Forward in time... I got the same problem on my corolla 05. I tryed to change ECU from the scrap yard.. No luck. The car could't start at all. It needed a programing on ECU which i dont know where to get it..So my solution for now is the dealer which is going cost me 800$(canadian) and a little bit of warranty. (time is too bad for Toyota now - so i'll try to get something from that)

The ECM is under warranty for 80,000 miles or 8 years. My 2005 just had that issue and I had 76,000 miles on it. Toyota paid for teh towing, parts, and labor.

Your best bet is to get a used ecm form a salvage yard it should cost you about 200 dollars that is far cheaper than going to a dealership or a parts store. generally that is what i do when i replace ecms. there are plenty of wrecked vehicles and the ecm is good in them so why pass it up to get a part that cost brand new about 1500 dollars.. goodl luck. please rate this

  • Anonymous Sep 05, 2008

    you can have the values adjusted once you install the ecm this would only require you to have a diagnostic scan tool. most smaller shops have these and the price would be minimal the whole thing would be about 200 for the ecm 75 for the reprogramming

I have a 07 Corolla and the engine light stayed on on Thursday night. I brought it to dealer yesterday and they said they need to replace the ECM. Lucky I have extended warranty, otherwise it may cost me CAD$1,500. I will buy extended warranty next time when I buy a new car for sure.

2006 Corolla. Codes P2716, PO121, PO607 I feel the pressure control solenoid would fix the harsh shifting, but the most urgent issue is the engine stalling while driving. Also the engine running but no...

check the cable adjustment for codes p 0121 before spending money on position sensors
the pressure (TFP) will fix the transmission problem
P0607 is the control module
however before getting a replacement ECM check for wires and connections
check for moisture and/or dirty pins in the connections
I would go for good replacement parts from a wreckers/junk yard rather than new parts to save money or have an accredited service shop check the components first

My 2006 toyota car indicates fault code P2716. l dont know if this causes my engine light to come on , and at times it goes off and comes on again after sometime.What can l do?What is the solution/

This is a known problem with Toyota, there is a recall on the ECM (Electronic Control Module). Check with your Toyota service center for verification with your VIN number.

This has nothing to do with the shift solenoid switch. It is a failure of the ECM computer module. If your car is less than eight years old and less then 80K miles, it is covered by warranty

If not, the part is about $550.

P2716 pressure control solenoid d 2005 toyota corolla 117000 miles check engine light on

This is very common on Matrix/Corollas and is repairable by way of replacement PCM to correct invalid parameters. the labor is low but the part is very expensive.

Expect approximately $89 or less in labor, and $648 for the new PCM

The good news is the warranty is 8 years and 80,000 miles on this fault.

There is a Bulletin on this concern. The correction is a new PCM with updated software.

What is P2716 code for a 2006 Toyota Corolla mean?

There is currently a recall going on for this problem. You can likely get your money back on the prior repairs as well. See this link http://www.toyota.com/recall/corolla-matrix.html. On the left-hand side, you can click to take you to put in your VIN and see if your vehicle is included. My 2007 vehicle IS included, and I just had the check engine light come on and have been experiencing rough shifting for about 6 months. When the light came on yesterday, it was extremely rough jerky shifting. The light went off today. Took it to Autozone and got same code P2716. Toyota has assigned me a case number, but I won't get a call back until Monday or by close of biz on Tuesday. This problem can cause your car to not start, or to shut down while driving. YIKES! The person I talked to at Toyota acted a little too nonchalant about the whole deal. Telling me to just wait for the call that I will get. She said most dealers would not have the part needed to fix this. According to what I have read. That is the reason why Toyota is not sending out the notification letters to the affected parties until mid-September. Check out all the info and good luck. I am a little bit p.o'd about this right now. - Natalie
