So, I searched here in the forum but didn't find much; maybe using less than ideal search terms? I tried a few different variations.
Anyway, on my 12/79-build U.S.-market 40, the factory original ignition switch on the steering column is sticky, and does not always spring back from the "Start"...

So I’m an electrical apprentice at a restoration shop and my first task is to install a kwik wire universal wire harness after I pulled out the old one. I’m currently constantly getting stuck because I don’t know what some things are and what they do, my goal today was to make sure I can wire...

For the past year I was experiencing the dreaded no start, turn the key and clicking then after ten turns BAM it would start eventually 20 turns. Not every time of course but definitely after a long ride or the local liquor store run.
I went into the 60 series forum and had really nice gents...
Does someone have the size of the one small screw that retains the ignition switch? I lost mine sometime during the last 10 years of refreshtoration.

I have a parasitic battery drain. Using a multimeter it’s pulling 0.225, i narrowed it down to the ignition switch, removed that fuse and draw goes down to 0.176 which I think is still high. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. Electrical issues are not my strong suit. Also I notice...
Today when trying to start my 68 FJ40 the ignition rotated freely [like an earlier post I saw]. My metal steering column has a hole under where the barrel sits but no obvious pin to push in to release. Do I need to take the entire column cover off or am I missing some key piece here?
We have a 2000 LX470, which has served us well. A few months back, we had Lexus replace all the lights in the dashboard (an important indicator light had burned out, and we figured "as long as the dash has to be pulled"). Since then, we have had the LX into the dealership four (4) times for a...

Good switch, lost key the last 5 years or so. Was going to take it to a lock shop and have it keyed but $18.00 to the lock shop, $20.00 in fuel to do it, 2 hours of time, etc. Thinking it best to make everyone a good...
I parked in the garage last night, turned the engine off but left the truck in drive, and left it that way overnight. This afternoon, the battery was obviously dead. AAA jumped the battery and the interior lights, radio, and other accessories came on but the key fobs are dead as is, it would...

Been working for months on a 69FJ40. Time spent correcting a lot of age and PO issues. Today I had the battery disconnected so I could finish installing new fuel tank and remove the rear heater. I reconnected the battery. When I turned the key the engine cranked but wouldn’t stop when I turned...
Hello everyone,
I’m trying to help out my uncle: before retirement he ran a successful garage for many years, but now he has a peculiar issue with his own daily ride, that seems to puzzle everyone he knows. Here I try to convey the information he gave me, so I don’t have all the details, but...
