Few Probs With My Celica Gti (1990)

Recommended Posts

well recently picked up a 1990 Celica GTI for the disgustingly low price of £175, needed new radiator and some touch ups here and there, previous owner had hit a kerb but changed the front right shock for a new one prior to selling, car runs fine, drives fine, just dropped a brand new radiator into it too.

Now my main problem is when i got the car, the ABS light was always on, from turning the key to the end of a trip, i poped open the fusebox today and noticed the 60a for abs was missing, so i popped a new one in and now when i start the car up the abs light comes on for a few seconds, goes out for a few more, then comes back on.

I've been looking around and apparently im told theres a way to check all 4 ABS sensors to see if any are faulty, personally i think whoever installed the new front right shock messed up the sensor on that wheel however i'd like to be sure.

I found through google that by joining TE1 and E1 on the diagnostic connection will enable diagnostics mode, well i did that and the "check" indicator blinked as such :

Turn key ;

1 blink

pause

3 blinks

pause

4 blinks

pause

3 blinks

long pause

So i then removed the EFI fuse for a few seconds and put it back in to clear the error codes, hell the cars 17 years old i figure it probably still has old ones logged? anyway, retried the diagnostics and it gives me continuous flashing (2 times a second), which is no errors logged right?, however the abs light still remains on, i believe its probably a different method to check the abs however i've tried connecting E1 to TC and it didn't really make much of a difference other than making the time the abs light went out before comming back on a fraction longer, but when the abs light comes back on it stays on, no flashing.

Another question i have is, my car has a pretty damn scratched up center console where the stereo goes in, in addition to this it still has the gap from the original factory fitted stereo being removed, i was wondering if any of you knew a decent place to get a replacement console for this, preferably with a gap the size of a normal stereo.

again for the sake of being absolutely clear, heres my stuff.

Last 'big' problem i have is the sunroof, when i press Tilt (on the side closest to the window), the whole panel moves about 2mm left, then any other button i press other than Slide (on the side closest to the window), does nothing, but when i do press slide, the whole panel moves back those 2mm right, rinse and repeat, is this just a jammed sunroof or has the motor died?

Finally, heres the motor in question :)
