dang does anyone know!?!?! seriously this is ridiulous

 

[the brave little toaster]

traction control, vsc and check engine?

sounds dumb but have you checked to make sure your gas cap is tight?

 

[the brave little toaster]

would also check to make sure your wheel speed sensors arent grubbed up and theres no metal flakes that would alter the magnetism. that and they are fully plugged in

 

[Mad_Sciontist]

yep what he said. First check your gas cap. Also I've heard if you top off your tank it can cause these problems also. Not sure way that is. Just heard from someone on this site said he had that problem. Good luck

 

[iheartmyxb]

thanks ok i'll check the gas cap but i dont know what the numberr 2 one is really saying.

 

[iheartmyxb]

Do u have a air intake on ur xb . If so go and make sure ur all ur clamps are tight on it and maybe try checkin ur mass air flow sensor. If ur ur tripin ur check engine light u may try goin to auto zone and see if the have a scanner for codes .I know auto zones down here will come out put there scanner on ur car for free and tell u what code it is. If u get a code number u can post it on here im sure some of us on here will be able to help ya out or at least tell ya were to look for the problem.

It could be a c1201 engine control system malfunction

a poo12 camshaft malfunction.

should be under warranty

how many starts/stops did you have since you checked the gas cap?
it usually takes as many as 5 start/stops for the light to go out.

 

[youngguy]

Is your car under warranty? If so I would let the Scion shop check it out. Barn

 

[iheartmyxb]

its underwarranty yes
um i think i've hit that 5 start/stops.
i dont have an intake.
so i dont know what the problem could be this is just insane!

 

[iheartmyxb]

anymore suggestions..?

 

[Mad_Sciontist]

Go out get in your box and push the odometer button in and hold it in while you turn your key to the on position. That should reset it if that is the problem. If that's not it take it to the dealer. Hope this helps.

[iheartmyxb]

[the brave little toaster]

My bad. I mis read I thought she said she hit the 5,000 mile thing. I see she said the 5 stop/start thing. Brain dead today I guess.

[madmaxb]

sounds like check maf connector then check make sure all ur clamps are tight with no air leaks listen for air being sucked in some were not suposed to be
