Also Is there a switch in the visor that is causing this or something else? So all of them need to be unclipped and slid in before the light will work?

I have a dimly lit brake warning light on the dash. I traced it down to the master cylinder cap as the culprit. Is there a way to clean/rebuild that switch? I am seeing it appears to be Toyota part number 8446060020 , however, that is discontinued. Is there another source for them? I see all...

Is ebay the best place to buy these? Are there any new ones available these days?

Is there any reason to choose the 105 series canister over the Ac Delco to Autozone? I'm surprised there is no drop in aftermarket or other replacement since it's an emissions control item.

Wow this looks great! Anyone have experience with how well the pitch/roll gauge works? Does it dim at night? It would be awesome if there was one that also included outdoor temp.

Ya I’ve got red for the map and warm for the dome right now and like it. Just figured I’d update to some better quality stuff that doesn’t flicker. With the led stuff being so hit or miss on quality I’m hoping someone has a good current source for some stuff vs having to order a few sets.

Anyone have recommendations to panel lights for the dome lights and map light? I wasn't seeing the dimensions people are using and there are a lot on amazon. I'm looking for red for the map light and warm white for the map light and as bright as possible. Also something that wont flicker. My...

Also the underside rear where the spare mounts from the factory (with the spare removed). Lots of space to design tanks or other things into that area. It would be great to try to get as much detail of the frame and members in that area to design brackets and such that bolt into them.

The floor pan area area in front of the drivers seat with the front seat bolts would be awesome. Also the floor pan/footwell area by the low range shift column/center console would be cool. I’d like to design up a flashlight mount similar to the wits end fire extinguisher mounts.

I got the egr working after replacing the VSV and re-doing the lines under the intake. When I was testing it out after re-installing everything I still couldn’t get the vacuum readings the FSM says at 2500rpm unless I pinched the line to the vsv. Since one of the steps in the fsm is to connect...

Thanks for the feedback, I ended up putting some header wrap on the egr pipe and securing it with SS zip ties. I put some fire sleeve on the harness and tied it away from the tube with another SS zip tie so as to not rely on a plastic clip to hold it away.

Has anyone tried to put insulation around the EGR pipe? I have the plenum off to fix the VSV and am working on making sure the harness is tied out of the way of the EGR pipe to avoid that issue. Looking at the compression fitting on the side of the tube that goes to the EGR valve it looks like I...

Good call on this. They showed no vacuum at idle, but as soon as I hit the throttle they showed some and were slightly different (like you said). I was able to confirm vacuum at all ports. Not sure how I didn't get any readings last night. I re-ran the test this AM and was able to get the...

Ah, nice. I've used them a bunch in the past for orders, but never realized I could look stuff up from there directly.

Hey All, I'm tracking down a P401 insufficient EGR issue. I've followed the FSM to check for vacuum at the EGR valve during cold/warmed up at 2500 rpm as well as moving the vacuum line from the modulator to the vacuum circuit. I did not see vacuum at the EGR valve in any of those conditions. The...
