Toyota Corolla Check Engine Light 5 Common Issues

[@darrylmcleman6456]

I had a P0420 on my 03 Vibe (same as Corolla) and here in rural Canada we deleted the cat. I erase the cat code every month and it comes back in about 2 weeks.Great little car. CHEERS from HERE!!!

[@jammin1881]

Some Toyota’s (Corolla / matrix’s ect ) or Pontiac Vibes get a PO171 error code. This is the manifold gasket and a design flaw. The newer gaskets like fel-pro or Toyota’s orange ones are better deigned and will fix the air coming in or creating a “lean” condition.

[@robinsydney140]

Thank you for taking the time to do this!!! 👍👍👍

[@ricardoreyesespinoza1370]

I dont even speak english as my Native language. And This video is very helpfull. Thank you. Pretty good explication

[@daniels5709]

Explanation* well done though! I wish I could speak another language.

[@d53101]

I had a code on my 2008 Corolla that pointed to a leaking intake manifold gasket. Dealer replaced the gasket with an updated one. I use an iPad app and a WIFI OBD 2 reader. The app gives codes and can erase them as well. Very handy at times.

[@AgentSmith911]

Just got it today. Toyota Auris 2.2 liter diesel 2009, no problems before now

[@sonehkorlie6521]

Where did you buy the scanner and how much was it?

[@ToddsGarage]

Hi and thanks for watching. You can find an OBD2 scanner online for sale and they vary in price quite a bit. There is a lot out there to choose from depending on the features you want it to have. Thanks again for watching!

[@CarlittaRenee]

Auto zone does scans it for free too!

[@musicmamma]

That's where I go!!

2007 Toyota Corolla S (75,000 miles) - The check engine light occasionally comes on, and the engine loses power. When this happens, I need to turn off the air conditioner and park the car. The engine shudders and shakes before I turn it off and wait. After waiting, I can restart the car, and it runs normally again. The issue has been occurring during high temperatures, in the high 90s to 100s (coincidence?). Any thoughts on what could be causing this? Is it my ignition coils? I have not pulled any codes yet.

[@anomalyp8584]

Sounds like the airconditioner is the problem...drawing too much power?

[@kerplunk9434]

Thank you! I tried everything except the code reader. Ima purchase one.

[@felipemandujano6401]

Hey what if I took mine in for a specific code and after the repair it's still reading the same issue? Took it for a p0741 got new ATF fluid and changed the TCC solenoid.

[@Hassan_Omer]

Thank you for the video tutorial. kindly can you tell me which device like this will work for Toyota Mark 2 Grande ?

[@eugenejacksonjr1111]

I got a new vapor canister and the light still came on the same day for vapor canister smh wonder if they installed it right or i need a hose

[@charronfamilyconnect]

Could my chech engine light been triggered recently because I missed 1 of my oil changes servicing appointments and put 15000 miles on my car since last oil change and my engine filter was very dirty? Assuming this is the case and I got this service done plus an engine flush is there a way to clear this warning such as disconnecting the battery to reset car computer?

[@JesuyonOlanrewaju]

my corolla2004 showing check light and ABS i have done everything possible to put it in order but to no avail so how do i go about it

[@krendiles1]

Hello! ☝️ A technical question. I have a Corolla year 2001 in Venezuela 🇻🇪 type 1.6; that is, 4AFE and neither current nor signal is reaching the oxygen sensor. This is causing the engine to consume a lot of fuel ⛽️ and also has a smell of candy with white 💨 and black smoke from the exhaust system. It uses a 12 volt wire + signal + (02) wires for a heater or coil but none have voltage from the ECU output. The 💡 ⚠️ CHECK-ENGINE light is on all the time. WHAT IS YOUR RECOMMENDATION? I await your comments. Thank you KENNY RENDILES

[@Nev_Reloaded]

your comment sounds like an email

[@gabehuffman1]

What are the usual prices for taking it to a mechanic?

[@mysleenroby9216]

Ihave 2016 turning the ingine check tell mi what going on

[@lynnesaija]

What about airbag codes please

[@유뭉탱]

P0420 (los angeles) After fix o2 sensor 170$ After 1000mile running engine light popped up again Had to replace catalytic converter cost me 900$.

[@tubnquagchannel1338]

Good demonstration!

[@Lucy00682]

Thanks for the orientation... that code gadget is important to have. At least I won't be taken for a sucker because I will go with some knowledge of what is wrong with my car.

[@robinsydney140]

Very important so that they don't rip you off!!!

[@ruddyshekatkar6507]

My corolla engine light is blinking while I drive what problem is it please reply soon

[@merchlife6572]

May I add that if your cats are bad it also means that oil changes were not done on time creating sludge that is notorious for wearing down piston rings, allowing oil consumption which messes up the cats.

[@sophianichole]

Thank you for this… this is me. Not getting oil changes on time..smh.

[@vinceglauser4770]

That was an excellent video.

[@CrackerJayherber]

Hi Todd, do you know if this particular scanner is compatible with the Corolla Altis 2007? I connected a cheap Bluetooth scanner to my car and it would not connect to ECM. After researching, I heard that the Altis is JDM engine and needs a JOBD scanner, but I really don't know.

I bought a cheapo Chinese OBD code reader which seems to work. As long as the car runs OK, I prefer my wife's solution: Stick a piece of black electrical tape over the "CHECK ENGINE" light. Problem solved without breaking the bank!!

[@SKANK_HUNT49]

Thanks for the help My friend

[@KotieNel]

What does it mean chech the 4 x 4 system

[@amyreaves2166]

Thank you. Informative.

[@rbo350]

I have a 2004 toyota corolla and it has a check engine light on and it needed a smog, I took it to a garage and they said the Cat. wasn't ready so I needed to drive the car so I drove the car on the freeway 100 mile and brought it back and the guy said the Cat. has to be replaced but I bought the car for 3000 and don't drive it much since I retired and covid, he wants a 2000 to fix and smog what do you think

[@ToddsGarage]

Thanks for watching! Unfortunately Catalytic Converters are expensive fixes usually. That is a tough decision for you, good luck and hope it all works out for you.

[@nishanbyroo849]

Thank you for the guidance

[@pathkris2984]

On my 2007 Toyota Corolla, the dealer is telling me based on the codes, the Vacuum switching valve is having a problem and it needs to be replaced. It will cost about 400 dollars.

[@miguelquazar883]

The dealer will rape their customers and they lie a lot.

[@miguelquazar883]

Did you look up the work required to fix this? I encourage more people to work on their cars as much as they feel comfortable. It will help you in a pinch as well. Anyone willing to do work on their own vehicle should own a scan tool these days. Keep it in your glove compartment or trunk. Even if you don't need it. You can have it if someone else does. For instance, I was able to diagnose and fix a problem that had me on the side of the highway. The scan tool told me there was a misfire on cylinder 3. First thing that came to mind was ignition coil. Super easy to replace. I bought crappy coils and one failed. Luckily I held on to an original one as a backup. As, buying cheap coils on EBay is a horrible idea. I swapped the coils around at first to see if it gave a different code (eg. Misfire on cylinder 2). But it never gave a new code but still ran like crap. Lost track where I swapped the first two so I swapped each one out with the spare until it didnt run like crap. It could have been fouled spark plugs as well. Which could be from a number of things, including a leaking valve cover gasket or specifically spark plug tube seals. It basically made it easy and I was driving again. It made me realize how useful having a scan tool was. Ultimately I ended up changing all the coils until the ebay ones were in the garbage. Either way, when a dealership tries to slap someone's head, if you can listen closely and look into the problem yourself, many people would be suprised how much money the dealership charges when you see how simple some jobs are.

Why the fire goes off if the check comes on

[@auxmike718]

Or just buy a scanner and find out exactly why it’s on!

[@JADE-ov1xd]

How many times is he going to say 2006 Toyota Corolla!!

[@mwaabamugala6535]

About 2006 times

[@AngelGonzalez-ix3dp]

This does not help at all

[@Big_AlMC]

When he throws you a bone he doesn't want to know how it tastes.

[@davidtate7685]

AGREE

[@chosenone3137]

If you fail to understand, it won't help you at all.

[@SKANK_HUNT49]

Yeah you have to be mildly mechanically inclined to understand

[@DruzaDithipe-xw2ht]

Im so sick of new cars, there all hunks of over complicated SHIT!!!!!

[@navdeepsinghkhalsa9561]

Bro, we are not from kindergarten. Already knew that. What i wanted to know is not exactly in this video. Could have used Chat GPT rather than watching your video. Wasted my time.
