Excellent, thanks!
And just to follow up. I found a harness-side connector w/pigtail at godaca.com
Fits perfect. Soldered it into my harness this evening.
Does anyone have a source for this connector—the side that clips into the TPS sensor harness? Otherwise, I'll just have to source one form another LX/LC.
I reset the previous P0171 code and drove around with no issues for a good half hour. The code re-appeared about 35 minutes into the drive but drove fine for the most part with a dead spot in third gear. Arrive at my destination and shut the vehicle off. When I cranked it again, I got the...
Looks like I need to add a fitting in order to actually check the fuel pressure—so I've ordered parts to do a flintknapper-style gauge install—which'll have to wait until the weekend.
The LX ran great, though. Was able to drive it a good bit with absolutely no stumbling. I rechecked after the...
Well—the new MAF plug wasn't the fix I was hoping for. It drives fine for the first few seconds then will start to stumble like a cylinder miss—and pressing the accelerator results in the vehicle barely moving. If I turn it off and immediately back on, it drives fine for the first few seconds...
Disconnected the battery for a couple hours and used dielectric grease on the MAF plug. No joy. Pins on the plug looked to be in good shape and no visible breaks in the wiring. Leaves me with bad MAF plug (since it's still reading double over what it should be reading). Or maybe injector, or...
Interesting re the connector. I did clean it with some electrical spray...but will try the dielectric grease. Was getting the same readings from my original MAF, so that may very well be the culprit.
I think after the battery disconnect/ECU reset I'll try an OEM fuel filter. New sock on new fuel pump—so I'll wait on that one. But I will say the last fuel pump I put in had a bad piece of fuel line with it. Completely opened up and left me stranded. Was an easy enough fix, though.
Ah. Hadn't tried that yet. The battery's been disconnected quite a bit lately, but not since I installed the MAF. Will give that a shot tomorrow morning.
Also replaced the PCV valve, grommet, and both hoses. All other vacuum hoses look ok.
Another thing, I'm getting a MAF reading of 8.5 at idle. Isn't this super-high?
Having some issues with my 2000 LX with 310k miles on it. It’s got a rough idle and the motor bogs when pressing the accelerator. No codes.
This all started when I was initially throwing codes for cylinder 3 misfire, bank 1 too lean, and random multiple misfires. I decided to replace all coils...
APPS? Only code is for O2 sensor but that’s been on for a couple days.
APPS? Not sure what that is. Are you referring to the brake booster pump? If so that seems fine and I didn’t get any audible warning.
It’s a 2000 LX470 with 310,000 miles.
Yep. Will crank over and over but not start.
I...
Just replaced it with a 30A fuse. No joy. So guess it’s not the immobilizer then.
Driving on the interstate, I suddenly loose all power. Was able to coast to the shoulder. I was thinking since I’ve had some hard starting lately that it might be the EFI relay.
Truck has new alternator, good...
I can’t locate it at the moment but isn’t there a jumper wire quick fix to bypass the immobilizer? Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thank you
