Prius How to Read Codes With Paperclip Method Tc Cg

timer00

I have done this in one case before when I first got the truck and it worked fine.

I jumped E1 and TE1 with a paperclip then turned the key to on and nothing happens. The Check Engine light just stays lit. With my luck the final few days (other car possibly having steering pump/crank pulley issues) the Diagnostic stuff is fubar'd or something. :bang:

My Haynes manual says to turn key to ON first and so spring terminals but that doesn't seem correct from the method thats been listed on since forever.

Any ideas ?

You need the FSM that is available hither for download on mud. Haynes will steer you wrong...DUMP IT (it is like the know-it-all brother in law who is right about 70% of the time). The Toy manual is quite skilful.

This should work:

Then, in the FAQ section:

Using the Vehicle Computer Codes to assistance Diagnose problems
If you take a 96 or newer vehicle you take an OBDII diagnostic port. Y'all can eitehr purchase a code reader or got to one of the many autoparts stores that will pull the code for you. The lawmaking volition and then tell you what the computer has logged as a fault. The nice thing nigh OBDII, is the code reader will work on ALL vehicles made 1996 and up.

If you accept a 91-95 Land Cruiser, you lot can even so pull the code with the paperclip method:

Go to this link for a discussion on it

i. With the key OFF, leap the E1 and TE1 terminals in the underhood diagnostics box with a paperclip.
2. Plough the key to the ON position, practice NOT start the engine.
3. Count how many times the CEL blinks, I.E. code 25 would be two flashes, a pause, then 5 flashes, echo. If there is more than i code, there will exist a longer pause between codes.
four. To clear the codes, remove the EFI fuse for 15 minutes, then replace it.
In addition, you lot can pull the TCM lawmaking. A TCM code is where your o/d light is flashing and pertains directly to the manual only

3. plow ignition on
four. go back to the DLC box and insert ane terminate of the paper clip in the E1 hole and one terminate in the TE1 hole. Exist Careful AND DO NOT GUESS ON THIS. If yous don't have ther label lawmaking post upwards in the forum
5. get dorsum inside and watch the o/d light flash design.
if it blinks continually in 2 second intervals you no longer have a problem and so but pull the x amp dome fuse to clear the lawmaking
6. otherwise count the flashes to become a two digit code. the wink sequences are sapareted by a one.5 2nd break. If there are 2 codes there will be a 2.v second pause between each fresh lawmaking.
7. remove the paper clip. turn truck off.
8. post your codes in the forum or look upwards in the FSM to decipher.

I have the FSM and know how to exercise the paper prune trick.. My problem is information technology will not work when I do what you lot posted which is from the FAQ.

It did work the last fourth dimension I did information technology so that's my event

Having the Air-conditioning in the OFF position might be of import.

Is your paperclip coated with a sparse clear plastic motion picture?

CJF

Yous're just not getting a practiced connection. :meh:

Endeavour it again with someone sitting in the driver seat while yous fiddle with the paperclip.

Is your paperclip coated with a thin clear plastic film?

The first one my wife gave me was a blue "plastic coated" type ane which I figured wouldn't work correct.. I found the 1 I brought dwelling from work which were the "metal" type and that didn't work either..

Does it affair there is a agglomeration of white grease blanket the terminals I presume to protect them from corrosion or something? Would that crusade a hard to become connection?

timer00

You're just non getting a skilful connexion.
Endeavour it again with someone sitting in the commuter seat while you fiddle with the paperclip.

I'll have to try this also

Kaveeks

IIRC...in that location was a jumper that I had to remove at the bottom right of the plug where E1 and TE1 are located.

I think that jumper is for if you are checking the ABS organisation. I don't know most the 91-95 yet, and so you may be right.

timer00

I think that jumper is for if you lot are checking the ABS system. I don't know well-nigh the 91-95 however, then you may be correct.

The original jumper wire that is supposed to be there is not in that location on mine.. probably got chucked a long time ago

Diggs84

Was in that location always a resolution to this? I'yard currently having the same issue. I tin't become the CEL to flash - Even with @NLXTACY's fancy jumper deal. Feeling like a dum dum right now...Oh and I'yard tired of the ten MPG, this puppy is pullin currently so I'd like to become this sorted.

NLXTACY

Was there ever a resolution to this? I'one thousand currently having the aforementioned result. I tin't get the CEL to flash - Even with @NLXTACY's fancy jumper deal. Feeling similar a dum dum right at present...Oh and I'one thousand tired of the 10 MPG, this puppy is pullin currently so I'd similar to go this sorted.

Truck needs to be off before you lot insert the jumper wire. Be SURE its the right ports you need, I've seen many errors made. Too, in the diagnostic terminal block yous have the jumper opening which is all plastic, then on One side of it you will have the female metallic connector. Be sure the pins/paperclip is Really within that female concluding. Again, I've seen people put it into the plastic opening only where it doesn't make good contact with the female terminal.

All of the 95s I accept worked on are OBDII like the 96-97s.

NLXTACY

All of the 95s I take worked on are OBDII similar the 96-97s.

I thought the aforementioned. I had a 1/95 that was indeed OBD1. The guy was bummed considering he purposely bought a 95 thinking information technology was OBD2

Diggs84

Well @NLXTACY you were correct. I couldn't squeeze my fat caput in at that place good enough to see that I was putting the metallic in the plastic side. Lawmaking 28

SmokingRocks

dumb question but take you ruled out a burnt out CEL low-cal....

Diggs84

If that was directed at me...yes the friendly orange glow I've had for the past several weeks seems like a pretty adept indicator that it'south working. You just gave me more than incentive to fix information technology before it does burn down out haha.
