will assume its an automatic transmission
did you ever jump start the car or connect the cables to the wrong poles re-set DIY is undo the battery terminals wait a bit then reconnect the terminals start and idle the car turn off if transmission is no better you will need the engine and transmission fault codes could be the tps |

the engine check light should be on
i would get the fault codes read if reset doesnt work you might be up for a refurbished ECM the 2003 camry Xle toyota ECM and tranny control module comes up as a combined unit re-set is undo the battery terminals wait a bit then reconnect the terminals start and idle the car turn off |
Disconnect battery for 5 minutes.
Start engine and let warm up. Use light throttle until trans shifts properly. |

I have had problems in the past with toyota whenever I change the battery, and after researching much, I found out that once the battery has been disconnected, my car has to go through about 20 drive cycles for the computer to re-adjust the oxygen to fuel mixture, which is why my car always acts up. What I do is drive for a very short distance (100 ft or so), stop, turn off the engine, re-start the engine and repeat the process for about ten drive cycles, which makes my car begin to drive like normal.
Hope this helps! |
