1993 Toyota Camry problems

[jayjr1121]

Ok. First things first. I am new to this DIY thing and have succesfully been able to do a few things in my car, but don't assume I can do all and I can also understand acronyms. Please be patient.

I have a 1993 Camry with 225k miles that has a little bit of problems here and there. I am trying to get it prepared to sell it, so I want to make sure I have these things fixed before.

Problem #1 - I need to fix the airbag light that has been on for 3 months now. I had a bad fuse and when replacing it, the airbag light went on and has been on ever since. Any suggestions?

Problem #2 - I also have noticed hot air comes from the dashboard vents as well as the feet area even when the control is in off mode. When I turn on the "real" hot air, this unique hot air stops. This also makes the a/c not very cold. It has no leaks and has freon. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance for your help.

One of your sensors is bad in your front and/or rear bumpers Im guessing. To figure out which one you need a thingy to measure the correct voltage on each. I dont know where the sensors are located though. Has the car ever been in a fender-bender?

In your dash there is a little door that opens certain ports to allow hot and cold air or a mixture. I have no idea how to fix em in a Camry. If you have a Crown Vic give me a call.

No fender bender. No airbag light 'til the problem with the fuses, than it suddenlly was there. Also, no Crown Vic here. Does this usualy require the dashboard to come out?

We had this on a previea and had to fight toyota to give us a replacement as it was faulty and had tripped when we changed the battery!
