gas gauge
Can someone do me a favor? I don't have my yaris with me today.
Unplug your ECU, turn on the ignition and see if the gas gauge still works? I need to know if the gas gauge is run through the ECU or not. Thank you in advance.

I'm always hopeful, thanks! I'd just rather avoid buying and installing another gauge unless i have to. I have a use for that spot

Sonofabitch.
Okay, so I can get one side of the harness off. But the second harness won't let me clear the clip. I have to unbolt the ECU from the firewall to do this. I just don't have the tools right now. My hood fell on my forehead. Luckily its a teeny hood. It just sucks cause it was a corner that hit me. |

hey kcalb if you read my first post you would see that i wrote "if its relatively simple i can do it for you" so it makes me laugh that you'll insult someone for trying to help someone one when you cant even read the statement that was made in the first place.
