I have a 1999 ES300 - 107k miles, which was miss firing intermitantly. The codes I pulled were
1354 (VVT bank 1), (300,302,304,306 misfires bank 2). I replaced the OCV on bank 1 to address code 1354. The condition and codes came back in addition to code 1351. Alldata said 1351 was
caused by a skipped timing belt or a bad ECM. The timing belt was replaced 6 months ago and
is still in correct timing. I purchased a used ECM. The battery was disconected for a few days while the ECM was being shipped. Now the car turns over but will not start, I have tried 2 keys.
The security light on the dash is flashing and the remote fobs are operating normally.
Did I loose the progaming in the security key? If yes, is this from changing the ecm or having
the battery disconnected for an extended period. Finally, Is there a way to correct this short of
towing it to the dealer?
