Anyone?

I've got an 1993 Lj78 with that a343f that needs rebuilding/replacing, torque converter also probably needs replacing/rebuilding. Prado/landcruiser a343f are incredibly hard to find here in Ireland and I would estimate a rebuild of the box would cost me €2k excluding the torque converter. With...

OK guys thats for your help!

When you say mini truck what exactly are you referring too?

I'm considering converting my lj78 to manual as the transmission problems persist. Ive been offered a gearbox, flywheel, clutch and pedal assembly out of whats believed to be either a 70 series or a hilux of some generation. Here's some pics of the gearbox, ive seen various pics of landcruiser...

So I dropped the pan off the transmission today to check/replace my shift solenoids in case they were the issue. Once I had it apart I realised the solenoids that I was sold were completely wrong for my trans! Went ahead and cleaned out the filter and flushed out the fluid. Took 12-13 litres I...

Anyone?

Are they any aftermarket options for the speed sensor in the a343f transmission? I've tried toyota and Amayama but coming up as discontinued. Thanks in advance

Removed the dome fuse for 10 minutes but the code O/D off light still flashes after driving for a short while. Ill try the flush and see how it goes. Also want to change the ecu temp sensor and see if this does anything, its awkward to get at by all accounts.

I haven't done that yet, i know the batteries were flat for quite some time before I collected it off the previous owner. Ill pull the dome fuse for a few minutes and see if it resets. As far as I can tell the kick down cable is connected at the throttle end not sure about below. I'm hoping to...

@nomadtribe thanks for that, I'm going to try to flush the transmission over the next few days. I can't flash the O/D Error codes because O/D won't engage.

So I put up about 60 miles on it today. O/D off light flashing once everything has gotten warm. I've learned this is like an EML, crossed TE1 and E1 with ignition on. O/D off light didn't flash as I thought it would even when I pressed O/D button. Engine management light put up a code 6.

Its a 2LT-E and A343F trans. It needs some tidying but nothing i can't handle

The O/D OFF light is flashing on and off intermittently as I'm driving also.

Its showing the fluid level full when its hot i.e. after a good drive. It looks brownish and there is a slight burnt smell off it
