Toyota error code P2118
I don't have a Sienna but I do have a 2008 Toyota Camry SE. After it being in the garage for many months, 8 months I think, I had to give the battery a jump to finally start it up. Well The jumper cables I used weren't that great. They flickered and seemed to smoke a little. So i removed them and put a better set on to get a charge. I didn't think anything of it. After that charge came through and i was able to accelerate at all... The throttle was to the floor and the car would not even go up .5 RPMs... After several days and talking to the dealer, I was about to call a Tow to have it taken to the dealer. Luckily my friend came by with one of those diagnostic readers and it spit out the P2118 error code. Immediately we looked it up and found this site. Thanks to Fixya.com I was able to determine that it was a freakin measly fuse that blew due to bad jumper cables... Thank god for the Fuse and thank you to Fixya.com that I was able to determine this so quickly!!!
How do I get my
Lift the hatch open, usually that nut would be covered by upholstery. Find the U shape cut-out on the carpet, flip it open and the nut is there (true for 2000 Sienna CE). Unscrew and the spare would slowly drop to the ground then you would unhook and free the metal holder from the middle of the spare once the metal cable is lose enough.
Toyota sienna blows hot air
It is likely that the actuator on the driver's side is jammed or out of position. Don't worry; the fix is simple and straightforward-remove the negative battery cable for half an hour to reset the computer. Once done, start the AC, and you will be able to hear the actuator adjusting, that's your AC getting ready to blow out some nice cool air.
My battery cable is completed
Depends on what cable is fried, but splicing large cables carrying a lot of current is not usually a good idea unless it is unavoidable. Improper splicing and corrosion over time can cause resistance at the splice, and a voltage drop over a splice can compromise operation of the car and cause the cable to overheat and become a fire hazard. However, if done properly and other wires in the harness are not damaged, it might be an option.
