Re: Need to pass inspection Help with 2000 camry CEL.



Have you tried to Reset the light using the Scan Tool? Some CELs will turn off by themselves if one waits long enough, but others MUST be reset in order to get them to go off.

The car is a 2000 camry 4 cyl.
Check engine light code says bad egr. 401 I believe.
I replaced the egr and the light never went off.
Tried cleaning the Tube that runs from exaust manifold to egr with B12.
The car has 245,000 miles on it btw.

I need to get the light off to pass inspection.

Im about to try and clean it again this time with a coathanger and b12.
After i scrape the metal tube will it hurt anything to start the car
with the egr off for about 5 seconds?

any help would be greatly appreciated.
