Hey, I was just in Ghana on a work related trip last month! Accra, Elmina, and Cape Coast. Welcome to EM. What are you driving?

Thanks. It was part of a research trip, so not much tourism. But we did visit the slavery trading sites.

So is there a specific car you are modding? Lots of manual transmission cars I saw.

Yes, 2009 Camry Hybrid, won't start with far code as P3004, after brake changed car won't start with the mentioned fault code. Please advise as to what to trace out. Thank you


With reference to the manual transmission car that you saw while in GH, those cars are mainly for commercial purpose, due to heavy usage of them, they prefer manual transmission than the automatic due to the cost involve to replace the automatic and the manual, the automatic is too expensive, but when it come to private cars for personal usage, 85 percent are automatic tranny.

P3004 seems to be for the high voltage power cable. Have you checked fuses and relays? What have you tried?
