so i'm trying to find this e-17 splice point......unable to find it been looking in the general area it is supposed to b located, unable to even find out which color coded wires they r. Anyone have some tips for me for locating. have looked behind the p/s pump and even have the intake plenium off still cant find it. Production date is 6/90

More info on what you're looking for would help. Where did you get e-17 from?

exactly Ha! was trying to locate the e-17 splice point. Found a tsb for intermittent engagement of over drive, and the 4-runner i have is acting up a bit. So my toyota shop manual says to inspect splice point e-17. Was unable to find that exact splice point. Found the splices for the injectors but had no luck on locating this e-17 one.

uraverageyota,

That spiice is in the shroud that goes over the front of the engine over the top of the upper timing belt cover. If you are looking at the engine from the front it will be on the left hand side.

i hunted and hunted throughout that harness that snakes over the upper timing belt cover. Didn't find any other splice points exact for the 2 injector splices. Do u know off the top of ur head what color the ect should b....the sensor itself not the connector.

uravarageyota,

The colors of the wires going to the ECT are: Green with blue stripe, and Brown with black stripe.
Hope this helps.

thanks but do u know what the color should b of the coolant temp sensor itself.....I believe somebody may have installed the wrong one at one point.
