Celica :: 1996 - Service Reminder Indicators Not Working


Sep 18, 2011

I have a 1996 Celica GT and I am having problems with the service reminder indicators within the instrument cluster panel. I recently had the car inspected in Pennsylvania and I was told that some of the service indicators were not working so they failed the cars inspection. Some of these indicators should illuminate when the ignition key is turned to the ACC or ON position(s). Currently, the only indicators that light up when the key is turned to the ACC or ON position are the SRS Airbag Warning light that stays lit for about six seconds, the BRAKE indicator, the low oil pressure warning light and the bing bing bing sound that my seatbelt is not fastened with no indicator light showing up in the instrument cluster. The CHECK ENGINE and the ABS lights do not light up either.

I removed the instrument cluster and found the CHECK ENGINE bulb was blown so I replaced the bulb and reinstalled the instrument cluster. Per the manual, I checked the 7.5 amp fuse labeled 'instrument panel lights' in position #22 per the diagram and found the fuse to be in good working order. I also checked the 10 amp fuse labeled 'gauges and meters' in position #32 per the diagram and found the fuse to be in good working order. No change to the status of the lights as described above. My daughter did assure me that these lights worked at some point over the past year (she was away at college).

Passat (B7) :: 2012 - Service Reminder Came On Again After Service?

So the service reminder came on this past Saturday, went to the dealer and had them check it out. No issues and they said they reset it. I was driving home last night and it came back on. Should I be concerned the reminder came back on? The car ahs 18K miles and the 20K service was done prior to me purchasing the car. Vehicle is a 2012 Passat SE.

Lexus GS 2006-11 :: Transmission Service Reminder On Start Up?

I have an 08 350 AWD with only 52K. Today I noticed that a service indicator showed up on my screen for the Transmission. It says " ATF contact this dealer for Maintenance" The car shifts just fine. I did have to replace the oil pan and some fluid about 6 months ago and no issues since. I can find not one drop of fluid in my Garage. What triggers the indicator?

Tiguan :: Service Reminder Reset At 4700 Miles?

After each maintenance I think my service reminder was reset to 10,000 miles. But after my 60k service it says 4700 miles until service is due. I tried resetting it myself and it still says 4700 miles. Is something wrong?

Touareg :: Turn Signal Indicators Not Working?

New to the Touareg game, but i have had (4) vw's including my R32 (Touareg is my wife's car) and we are experiencing our first problem. Wife called me on the phone and said that the turn signal indicators on the dash are NOT working but the signal lamps on the outside of the vehicle ARE working.

I haven't been able to check the car yet seeing as she is not home and I am still at work. So I guess my question would be, could it be a fuse? or what... electrical gremlin...? I had her shut the car off and take the key out of the ignition and then start the car back up but no dice...

Toyota - Sienna :: All Dashboard Indicators On - Speedometer / Odometer And Window Controls Stopped Working?

I was on a highway on my Toyota Sienna LE 2012 today and hit a minor bump (the steel protrusions on road you feel when driving over a bridge) I first thought the tire pressure signal come on, slowed down and it seemed OK. All indicators - Check Engine, ABS, VSC, Brake, Pressure, etc were also ON, speedometer, odometer not working and I stopped under a mile at a gas station. Turned off car, checked tire pressure, it was OK and restarted car - all indicators still ON, speedometer, odometer and power window controls do not work. Steering feels tight but I can drive car - I was on my way to JFK Airport and on Beltway Pky East another 10mi to go yo JFK. Car drove fine, but with all these indicators on, and steering what felt like manual.

I plan on taking car for service tomorrow but I have never remotely experienced anything like this on a car. I am also worried I messed up the car (and dangerous if something else happened...) driving to get to the airport. What could have gone wrong?

Toyota - Celica :: 1996 - Seems To Be Burning Oil

I recently purchased a 1996 Celica. The car looks amazing and drives well. On top of it's reliability, the vehicle is an absolute blast to drive!!!!! However, it seems to be burning oil. I was told to switch from 5w-30 oil to 10w. A thicker weight would work.

Celica :: 1996 GT Won't Start - No Spark On Any Cylinder

This has the 2.2 engine with the ignition coil mounted on the firewall, not inside the distributor.

Original not start condition seemed to be fuel related because it tried to sputter on time after it died in the middle of the intersection.

Changed fuel filter, primed and no start.

Checked for spark at the plug wire using a solid wire and touching a ground - no spark on any cylinder.

Tested for voltage at the center distributor cap - have 12 volts - replaced distributor - no spark

Replace ignition coil and ignitor - no spark

The wires all test with the right ohms so I'm not sure what is left to replace.

Celica :: 1996 Started Hesitating And Popping

I have a well maintained '96 Celica 2.2 and for the first time in years it started acting up on the way home last night.

I got on the highway and was cruising at 65 and it started hesitating and popping and finally forced me to the side of the road. I was then able to start off again and reached about 60 all the way home but it was hesitating and not a smooth ride at all.

When I got to a red light at the off ramp, it died. I started it and it drove rough on local streets until I got home.

This morning I started it and it fired right up but then died immediately. Did that twice. Just tried again and it won't even start but just pops and makes noises like it's out of gas, even though 1/2 full.

Check Engine Light is on. I tried jumping E1 and TE1 but nothing happened.

Celica :: 1996 - Where Are The Drain Holes On Quarter Panels

I bought the car a month ago and went to pick it up today and there was 3 inches of water in the left front and rear footwells. I drained the water from there but can still hear it sloshing around in the quarters. Probably the drain holes are clogged. Where are they and how do I get to them? Do the rocker moldings have to be removed?

Celica :: 1996 ST205 Overheating After Roughly 30 To 60 Minutes Drive

I just recently replaced the timing belt and water pump on my toyota celica 1996 st205 (5sfe engine) and now my car is overheating after roughly a 30-60 minute drive. the radiator seems to be overheating and boiling/forcing the reservoir tank out through the overflow hole. when refilling the coolant i had to use some water as the 5L bottle of 50/50 coolant i had wasn't enough. I cant see any leaks, i did see bubbles in the radiator with the cap off and engine running however i think that may be due to the reservoir tank being empty. I had never had this problem prior to the timing belt/water pump change.

Celica :: 1996 Toyota With Intermittent Spark And Usually Starts When It Cools Off

I recently was given a 96 Toyota Celica 1.8L Auto 7AFE and I have been trying to troubleshoot some problems.

It started a year ago when my brother drove it to work and then after work it would not start back up. It sat for a while and now its mine. Problem is I was not getting any spark at all a while back when we tested it. I thought maybe the distributor. The other day it happened to just randomly start after a year of not starting. It made a small pop in the cylinder then boom ran just great until it warmed up and proceeded to shut down, would not restart. Checked the spark and it was very weak (yellow) and just seemed to be a slow spark, not firing as fast as I would think. Today I put a new distributor with a new cap and rotor in and boom she fires up immediately. Let it warm up fully shut it down, restarts fine, shut it down again and now it will not restart. Last time I tested fuel was fine, seems as if I am getting an intermittent spark and usually starts when it cools off.

Not sure what to do now, where to look. The wires seem ok with no corrosion but I have only worked on the 2.2L and I am lost!

Celica :: 1996 Toyota Starts When Cold And Run For About 5 Minutes Then Dies

I own a 1996 Toyota Celica. When the car is cold it starts and run for about 5 minutes then dies. When I try to start the car, with the key in the 'on' position, I have no check engine light. If I crank the engine and release the key to the 'run' position, the 'check engine' light turns on. When the car is cold or I leave it to rest for a couple hours and I turn the key on the 'check engine' light turns on. it is after the car stalls out i have this problem. At this point if I spray some starter fluid into the intake the car attempts to start. I thought that it was the pump so I installed a new one. Fuel pressure is good. It seems to me that the injectors are not working.

Is it the computer? Given that fuel is getting to the injectors but the injectors are not firing, Given that I have ignition since when I spray starter fluid into the intake the car fires up and runs until it runs out of starter fluid. Where do I start? I have not used a noid light as yet to check the injector harness and as you all know the harness is a little difficult to get at because of its location under the intake.

Toyota - Celica :: 1996 Engine Would Turn Over And Not Fire / Bogging

I have a 1996 Toyota Celica automatic transmission with just under 160k miles. It's always been a great car, very reliable and very few problems. A few days ago, it started having trouble starting (engine would turn over and not fire, usually starts after four or so tries) and then will bog down considerably while taking off from a stop until it shifts into second gear. No problem idling, not stalling.

Mechanic changed fuel filter, checked fuel pressure, plugs, cam and ignition timing, catalytic converter - all okay. Thinks it might be the distributor but would take a few hundred dollars worth of work to diagnose, plus whatever expense if it is the distributor, and obviously more if it is not. Might it be the distributor?

Celica :: 1996 - Fuse Is Blown / Moonroof And Power Window Don't Work

I found one fuse is blown. It's located under the driver side labeled "gauge." However, if I replace with good one (10A), it will be blown again once I turn on the power.

The gas indicator and back lights will work in the combination meter. The rests (turn-on check up indicators, coolant temp, odometer) won't work. The moonroof and power window don't work, either. Radio/CD does work. Engine has no problem to start.
