I have a 1980 FJ40. It has a Painless Wiring harness from circa 2012. Everything works; however, under the dash is a rats nest of twisted together wire connections wrapped in electrical tape, and the harness is routed incorrectly. It bothers me, and is potentially unreliable. I have an...

Hi everyone. I’m not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I’m having a problem with my '94 80 Series. The switch for the rear left door (the one behind the driver) isn't working. I thought it was the switch itself, so I removed and replaced it, but the overhead light still doesn't...

Good Evening All, I was wondering if any of you know what this plug that comes out under the dash near the AC, and Radio consoles are. As always, thanks for any info you have.

Well here's a new one... Had a sudden full electronics shutdown and limp mode the other day on my 2016. Pulled code P-0705- shifter sensor failure and wouldn't erase/reset. Limped the truck to the nearest Toyota expert which happened to be my local dealership. Diagnostic reveled spilled...

Hey all, I'm having a real hard time diagnosing this brake light issue. Originally, my tail lights and brake lights were not giving anything. Through screwing with the trailer wiring adapter (small box in the passenger rear quarter panel) I have restored running tail lights to both sides and the...

I’ve got a 1981 BJ42, some work was completed today on the glow plugs at a trusted shop with an excellent mechanic. He said the glow plugs were only getting 7 volts, he found a bare spot in the wire, fixed it and now the headlights won’t work. For clarity, The turn signals on the front...

I just got a badass set of LED fog lights from Bens3DBuild. I’m undecided how I want to handle the turn signal issue though… I’m considering getting a generic trailer turn signal set and just mounting them to the bumper, but I am an extreme novice in the way of vehicle electrical… would it even...

Like new BougeRV Rocky 69 fridge. Used this fridge in my camper for a couple trips while I was waiting on my National Luna to ship from South Africa. Has 2 zones to make it all fridge, all freezer or fridge and freezer. You can also remove the divider to make it one bigger fridge or freezer...

I'm trying to sell my Lj78 but I would very much like to fix this electrical issue before I list it. All dash lights including battery, filter, etc. (excluding check engine light, strangely) stay on when the truck is running. I replaced the alternator about 5 years ago but I wasn't sure if it...

I have been chasing this issue for a while now. It would go in and out of functioning so in this hot summer I left the AC on before it went out again and looks like it’s gone for good. Thankful my AC settings are remembered. I’ve tried unplugging each module related to see if it’s isolated to...

Hey all! I'm running a fully split two battery setup with a lithium secondary, and I'm looking for an accessory switched underhood fuses. They all seem to be either constant on or ignition switched. I want my Auxbeam panel on accessory switch so I can run them and the car on the isolated camp...

Vehicle: 100 Series Land Cruiser 2UZ-FE 344,000 miles Model year: 2000 Okay, I can see that this definitely isn't anything new to the 100 series for this to happen. I've read placemotorsports post about his issue and I think I understand but I'm also not entirely sure. There are also a couple...

Looking for an aux relay box built by @slcfj62 . Just need one to upgrade lights to the Koioto Toyota set and also have room to add a set of fog lights down the road. Thanks.

I have a 1995 KZJ89 Prado and want to replace the stock headlights. I was looking through old threads and settled on getting the Trucklite 37450C's. I saw conflicting information on reversed polarities and such and just wanted to make sure they are actually compatible and/or if they need an...

Hi all, 1989 BJ62, My horn and hazards stopped working a while ago. Would temporarily fix by changing the horn/haz fuse but would always blow again within a day. Well, recently my signal lights have stopped working as well. I’m curious if anyone has insight into the cause before I start...

Hi Everyone, Our beloved LX is a brick! I'm hoping the community here can help me diagnose a frustrating issue with my 2013 LX 570. The vehicle has been with a reputable Toyota-focused mechanic for almost a month, but they've largely run out of ideas. Here's a quick timeline and description of...

Now that the Beast is gone, I can concentrate on other projects. My FJ40's electrical wiring is an absolute mess and it drives me crazy. Grounding issues, wires sliced / diced, dead wires just hanging around. I am also considering adding an electrical heater & USB ports; so I need some extra...

I'm looking to install an Ecoflow alternator charger (or something similar) to recharge my Delta 2 battery while driving. I have a stock amperage (130) alternator, replaced it last year and no upgrade options were available at the time. Car is in great mechanical shape. When weather allows, I'm...

Help!! I have an electrical issue that I am at a loss. :frown: First, I have an 88 FJ62 with an LS conversion and substantial rewiring. My issue is that I appear to have a short somewhere that I can't find. I had the truck back together and I was troubleshooting a power seat issue when I...

Hello folks, I recently blew/melted my fusible link on my rig and am searching for the replacement. The current one is completely black from getting cooked, so I cannot check its wire gauges. It seems that the original part is discontinued (82210D), and other alternatives could be the 82210C...
