    Can I convert hydraulic power steering pump to electric ?

    There is an way to do it. The older MR2 from the 90s had electric motor driven power steering vane pumps. You will need to upgrade your electrical system. Just google it and then we can buy a bag of pirates bootie.

    ABS VSC TRAC saga continues...thoughts?

    Check your abs brake module/ master cylinder. You could be getting an alarm is your pressure switches in the brake master to control the booster pump are bad. They tend to malfunction at low temps. Try this: after you turn off the engine and remove your key, pump the brakes 5-10 times to reduce...

    ABS Booster MC Module Replace: Reprogram Required after install? What did you pay at Local Shop ? at Dealer?

    I did mine for a 2001. No reprogramming needed. You have to use the scan tool to clear any faults and to bleed the brakes.

    2001 LX 470 ABS replacement?

    Its a time vs $$$ calculation. I did the pump replacement and my issue remained. Then did the master replacement… did not fix the issue. I bit the bullet and bought the part from toyota. No rebuild for me. There are three failures that I have seen on these units based on the posts I read: 1)...

    Brake master screeching when cold - trip planned tomorrow

    I had the same issue. The reservoir would fill and then screech and bubble. I consider the pump = pump and motor unit. You cannot purchase the pump or motor on its own, they are a unit. You can purchase the whole unit, the pump/motor and the master cylinder.
