MIL ON - DTC P1133 Updated (Oxygen Sensor Circuit) ENGINE EG004-01

April 20, 2001

Title: M.I.L. "ON" P1133

Models: '97 - '99 Camry and '99 Solara

Introduction

Under certain driving conditions, some 1997 - 1999 5S-FE California emission specification Camrys and 1999 5S-FE California emission specification Solaras may exhibit a M.I.L. "ON" with DTC P1133 (Air Fuel Ratio Sensor Slow Response Malfunction). An improved Air Fuel Ratio (A/F) Sensor was developed to correct this condition (See TSB EG006-99).

In some rare cases, P1133 may still set after the improved A/F sensor is installed. The Engine Control Module (ECM) logic has been modified to correct this condition.

Brakes - Pad Clicking Noise BRAKES BR004-00

October 20, 2000

Title: BRAKE PAD CLICKING NOISE

Models: '90- '00 All Models

Introduction A clicking type noise may be noticed when first applying the brakes after changing vehicle travel direction (Drive/Forward to Reverse, Reverse to Drive/Forward). This is a normal noise caused by the required brake pad-to-caliper clearances. When the direction of travel is changed, the brake pads may "shift" towards the new direction of travel. When the brake pad contacts the caliper, a clicking noise may be heard.

To minimize this clicking noise, a disc brake caliper grease has been made available for use during brake service/maintenance operations. Under normal usage conditions this grease should be effective for a period of 6 months to 1 year.

Notes

California


To obtain a high purification rate for the CO, HC and NOx components of the exhaust gas, a three-way catalytic converter is used, but for the most efficient use of the three-way catalytic converter, the air-fuel ratio must be precisely controlled so that it is always close to the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio.

The A/F sensor has the characteristic that provides output Voltage* approximately proportional to the existing air-fuel ratio. The A/F sensor output voltage* is used to provide feedback for the ECM to control the air-fuel ratio.

By the A/F sensor output, the ECM can determine the deviation amount from the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio and control the proper injection time immediately. If the A/F sensor is malfunctioning, ECM is unable to perform accurate air-fuel ratio control.

The A/F sensor is equipped with a heater which heats the zirconia element. The heater is controlled by the ECM. When the intake air volume is low (the temp. of the exhaust gas is low), current flows to the heater to heat the sensor for accurate oxygen concentration detection.

*: The voltage value changes at the inside of the ECM only.

^ The child restraint seat top strap assembly is not available as a service part. Contact the child restraint seat manufacturer for recommended top strap information, top strap to child restraint seat installation instructions, and top strap retailers.

^ The top strap brackets can only be installed on vehicles that have nuts welded in place by the factory. The locations of these nuts can be found in the Owner's Manual (for most 1983 and newer models.) Toyota does not recommend modifying vehicles that do not have nuts welded in place by the factory. Some Land Cruiser and RAV4 vehicles, prior to 2001 model year, may not have these nuts welded in by the factory.

Valve Cover Oil Baffle - Damage Prevention ENGINE EG007-02

Title: GENERAL MAINTENANCE TIP

Models: All '93 - '03 Models

March 22, 2002

Introduction

To help prevent unnecessary complications during the oil fill process, no undue load should be placed on the oil baffle attached to the inside of the valve cover (see illustration). This baffle is designed to deflect oil and should not be used to support the weight of heavy oil fill devices. These devices can placestress on the baffle, and bend or break it during the oil fill process.

Windshield Wiper Blade - Maintenance and Cleaning BODY BO030-01

Introduction

The following procedures are recommended to maintain windshield wiper blade performance.

Applicable Vehicles


Maintenance, Cleaning and Use Recommendations for Windshield Wiper Maintenance, Cleaning and Use:



. . Windshield Wiper Blade - Maintenance and Cleaning

.

Notes

^ All models.


1. Scheduled Maintenance

^ Check wiper rubber blades every 4 - 6 months or 7,500 miles for wear, cracking and contamination.

^ Clean glass and rubber wiper blades if blades are not clearing glass adequately. If this does not correct the problem, then replace the rubber elements.

Page 1 of 21998 Toyota Camry CE Sedan L4-2164cc 2.2L DOHC MFI - Windshield Wiper Blade - Ma


NOTE: Make sure to use plenty of water with all powder based cleaners so the glass is not scratched.


2. Cleaning Procedure

^8DO NOT USE fuel, kerosene, or petroleum based products to clean rubber wiper blades.

^ Wiper Rubber: Bugs, dirt, sap and road grime on blades will cause streaking. ^ Clean wiper rubber of road and environmental debris using cloth or paper towel soaked with

windshield washer fluid or mild detergent.

^ Windshield: Bugs, road grime, sap and car wash wax treatments decrease wiper performance. ^ Rinse windshield with water and apply non-abrasive cleaner, such as Bon-Ami

(www.faultless.com), with a sponge.

3. Contributors to Poor Performance/Decreased Rubber Blade Life (require rubber replacement)

^ Dusty areas cause the rubber edge to wear quickly. ^ Sand and salt used for road conditioning during winter causes the edge to wear quickly, so areas

with significant snowfall require more frequent wiper replacement. ^ Heat and time cause the rubber to become excessively "permanent set," so the rubber does not turn

over, resulting in streaking and/or unwiped areas on the glass. ^ Rubber is easily cut or torn while using ice scrapers on the glass. ^ Rubber can be torn when pulling blades off a frozen windshield. ^ Using wipers instead of an ice scraper to remove frost and ice from the windshield during a car

warm up can dull, nick, or tear the rubber. ^ Banging wiper on the glass to remove ice & snow can cause the blade to bend and rubber to come

out of the blade providing the potential to scratch the glass. ^ Ice forms in wiper blade pin joints, which causes streaking and unwiped areas. To remove ice

from pin joints, compress the blade and rubber with your hand to loosen the frozen joints. To prevent this condition, use winter blades with a rubber cover.

DTC P0135 Heated Oxygen Sensor Heater Circuit (Bank 1 Sensor 1)

DTC P0135 Heated Oxygen Sensor Heater Circuit Malfunction (Bank 1 Sensor 1) (Ex. CA Spec.)


CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION To obtain a high purification rate for the CO, HC and NOx components of the exhaust gas, a three-way catalytic converter is used, but for the most efficient use of the three-way catalytic converter, the air-fuel ratio must be precisely controlled so that it is always close to the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio.The A/F sensor has the characteristic that provides output voltage approximately proportional to the existing air-fuel ratio. The A/F sensor output voltage is used to provide feedback for the ECM to control the air-fuel ratio.By the A/F sensor output, the ECM can determine the deviation amount from the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio and control the proper injection time immediately. If the A/F sensor is malfunctioning, ECM is unable to perform accurate air-fuel ratio control.The A/F sensor is equipped with a heater which heats the zirconia element. The heater is controlled by the ECM. When the intake air volume is low (the temp. of the exhaust gas is low), current flows to the heater to

heat the sensor for accurate oxygen concentration detection.*: The voltage value changes at the inside of the ECM only.

Sensor 1 refers to the sensor closer to the engine body.Sensor 2 refers to the sensor farther away from the engine body.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT: Read freeze frame data using TOYOTA hand-held tester or OBD II scan tool. Because freeze frame record the engine conditions when the malfunction is detected, when troubleshooting it is useful for determining whether the vehicle was running or stopped, the engine warmed up or not, the air-fuel ratio lean or rich, etc. at the time of the malfunction.
