It could be some section of the cable in the door, either data or power that's intermittent but found a happy place (for now.) I did the fix this morning and I'm glad I went the route of replacing the harness. When removing the old harness, the clips were quite snug and 3 or 4 didn't survive...

Same problem here on my 16. PSA: It is likely to be the camera cable failing within the door jam/wire loom, see attached pictures of mine. 2016 w/ 120k miles. Unfortunately I went the route of a new camera 1st and the hold-your-tongue right disassembly of the driver mirror and replacing it...

I took this exact end off the other day while getting to some bushing bolts. SnapOn CJ83-02 is what I used and it came right off. Here's a link to one on ebay (not my link.) Snap on Pitman Arm Puller Part# CJ119B CJ83-2, CJ66-15-3 | eBay - https://www.ebay.com/itm/185731352863 In my opinion...

In my experience with other mechanical distribution, it was due to water that made it's way into the distributor cap.

Heres your problem, the gasket in the red picture is inside-out. The "spur" I'm talking about in the previous post goes face-down against the firewall/body below the trim/wiper panel, not up to the sky. There's NO way you'll ever seal that, its molded to bend the other way and seal on the...

After experiencing my own issues similar to this and then resorting to installing my own windshield per FSM with OEM gasket, here's my 2 cents: The OP's fix to put sealant in the void between the gasket and glass: solid advice echoed by many here. For others wandering into this fix: IMO...

Yall who are in here reminiscing about the "simplicity" repair of an F-150 haven't worked on F-150's built in the last 20 years and done an honest comparison. I've had every generation of F150 since 94 and often with multiples of each. The best one I had was a 99 F150 and an 01 Expedition...

*Old thread bump, this thread was useful for me with a list of the part #'s on a 97 LX450. I found a seller on ebay that sold the whole list, "Toyota AC Climate Control Switch Button Set Land Cruiser 80 55905 OEM Genuine." I offered got for $71 w/ free shipping, and just installed them. This...

I put in a new dist. O-ring, the original had been slightly seeping for a while. Before i took it out, I marked the position of the arm and the dist body/nut, reinstalled it. It ran fine, but after a couple days I decided to check timing g and found i was about 3* slow, so adjusted it back to...

Great thread, any need for a new stabilizer shock? 111k miles on mine, intermittent with a slight out-of-balance feel at about 70 and it's not the wheels/tires. I suspect it's the original stabilizer because the rest of the shocks are original and rebound is not very tight at any of the 4...

By reading the FSM, the picture in it, and looking at the Factory Gasket. That specific profile only exists on the bottom of the gasket.

I would say that if you think you can do it, and have time to tackle it the right way, you probably can. Asterisk is some don't know their limits, so putting a big ass hole in your cab is the point of no return. At first glance FSM seems to imply glue everywhere around the gasket to body...

1st post here, this forum has been a great resource for me which begun before I purchased my 97 LX450. Researched common issues, looked at a ton of threads kn what to look out for, and was alot of help in picking mine out. Instead of 1 weekend, I have a few so far that have been things I've...
