    adjusting the tps how do you know its in the right place

    While there are a few ways to cheat it's usually set using the procedure in the manual. When the results spelled out in that procedure are achieved it's set correctly. Not sure why you're unable to grasp that. It'd help if you told us exactly what codes are present. The ones you wrote in the...

    No power to B+

    See 3p's link. B1 is near M1. http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TEWD/MK3/manual.aspx?S=Main&P=49 http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TEWD/MK3/manual.aspx?S=Main&P=29

    code 21

    Oops, that's right. Since I'm used to fooling it with a resistor I know better. Even alluded to it in post 27. Doh. Guess I was too focused on getting his heater working. Edits in place...

    No power to B+

    ^ This. Since you have power at the fuse I'd be looking there. You really should get another meter. Or connect test leads to the dog...

    AC oil - did i put in too much?

    Er, when starting with an empty system and a new compressor the compressor's oil charge is all that's needed. Oil is added only when replacing components.

    code 21

    If you follow the other wire (B-R) from the sensor to the previous page you'll see it goes through the main relay to the EFI fuse. That's the power wire. You should have 12 volts on it at the sensor. The other wire from the sensor (B-L) going to HT is the ECU supplied ground. Btw if you're...

    code 21

    Assuming you have an 89 or later it's labeled HT (for heater). Pin 10 on connector R: http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TEWD/MK3/manual.aspx?S=Main&P=48 http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/Library/TSRM/MK3/manual.aspx?S=FI&P=50

    code 21

    Meh, it happens. The procedure is otherwise pretty creative. Course all of this would be simpler if he had a meter and knew how to use it.

    Peculiar sound when passenger door is opened

    The reel is designed to lock whenever there's a certain amount of forward inertia or if the belt is pulled hard. The lever fully disables this lock when the door is open. It doesn't prevent the belt from being put on with the door closed but many (if not most) people put the belt on with the...

    code 21

    Now that I read it again I think the confusion lies with the words "signal wire". We already know his signal wire is good, it's his heater ground that's responsible for the code. IBought probably meant that. Fwiw code 21 should never cause fuel economy to be that poor. Even a complete loss...

    Peculiar sound when passenger door is opened

    Yeah, it's the inertia reel. Common problem. The little lever works the reel when the door is opened.

    STarting issue PLEASE HELP!!!

    No, you're not. You're the only one to throw a tantrum when nobody stepped up though. Think they'll be any quicker to respond in the future? That kind of thing is usually easy to resolve, especially when it effects only the starter circuit. I could have fixed in it in 5 minutes. Then again I...

    Do I need this wire on the back of the alternator?

    Just don't do what the OP wanted and make a new "ground wire". The result would not be pleasant...

    Do I need this wire on the back of the alternator?

    It is a condenser for, as stated, noise suppression. Alternator whine to be exact. The lead wire needs to be as short as possible which is why the part is always placed on the rear of the alternator.

    Coolant leak by passenger foglight

    You're not going to find this much help but I'm always puzzled why some people think it's easier for those on the internet to find leaks than it is for someone who is right there with the car...
