did you figure it out? I have the same problem right now

just found another thread that addresses this. I'll look into it.

Recently got my FJ40 put back together after some work, and last night I went to shut and lock the driver's side door. It didn't quite work like normal, but figured that was part of the adjustment period. Well, now I can't open my door. It won't unlock and I can't get the door open to adjust...

That's perfect! how can I pay you?

Hey, curious if these are still available? I'll take 'em

Gentlemen, thank you all for your responses. It all panned out perfectly and I now have a much cleaner wiring setup (and a much better understanding of the overall electrical system).

Here's the flip side. Everything looks like it's in there really good and I'm not seeing anything that's switched power (the fat red is the power source from the battery positive terminal. I did find an accessible switched wire that runs to the "fasten seatbelts" light. Thinking I could tap into...

Hey guys, let me give you the breakdown and hopefully you can help guide me. I have a ’76 FJ40. It was sitting for 6 years and finally was given new life thanks to a replaced clutch. I went to get it tested (it’s not exempt because I let the registration lapse when they changed the law), and...

I'm currently disassembling my '76 for a new clutch. There are two hoses that were already severed when I went to take the hump out, and I can't seem to tell where they go/where they come from. They're the ones that pass through the front of the hump, close to the engine. What are they? (the...
