CEL after d/r swap into Loyale

Featured Replies

Hello, 

Is CEL common after D/r Swap into push button Loyales?

Pretty sure the original Trans was manual due to dash unless that was switched with center console 

Unsure of original vehicle of D/r Trans, non locking...

Any one have any experience with this? I would appreciate some advice. 

Thanks

It's a wild guessing game unless you tell us what the CEL is... There's a red LED on the ECU under the dash that flashes out the code when the key is on.

Did you hook up the speedo cable?

Without a speedo input it will set a code.

good luck

Yes I apologize for limited info. It is a potential car I am buying so I didn't do swap myself. Previous owner who did said that the (far right cel now covered with electrical tape has been on since swap.) said that some ol time sub mechanics tried to figure it out but couldn't think that something to do with different transmission to dash connection.

 

Since that swap is common I figured there would be some others who have faced it.. But couldn't find much searching the forums. so now I'm asking. Just trying to get some ideas before I get to it. Hasn't been an issue for owner in Wa but I am relocation this car from Wa to Ca. Where I will auto fail a smog test with that light on.

Not sure about the speedo cable. But I will ask.
