Looking for a dome light switch for my 42. The striker part seems to have seized up or spring broke. Needs to be for 24v system.

 
Part # 84230-22051

Still available from the dealer for ~ $15. I don't believe that there is a difference in the switches between 12V and 24V, as the same part number is listed for my 12V HJ47 truck and for a JDM-spec BJ42 (which, AFAIK, is 24V).

E.g., available at Camel Back Toyota for $15.32.
 
Oh i had no idea. Guess ill check it out. Ive jusy seen pics of ones with a single wire and ones with 2 wires
 
The courtesy light itself (part #81240-90801) definitely has the two wires, versus the traditional one wire (part #81240-90800), but the switch I think should only have the one wire. The door jamb switch is the reason that the courtesy light has two wires.

The switch I ordered, part #84230-22051, is definitely only one wire. Double-check your switch on the back side of the A-pillar and see, but the wiring diagram I'm looking at doesn't call out any distinctions between 12V and 24V at that switch, and it shows as one wire. Admittedly it's a 1983 diagram, not 1982, but that parts diagram shows it being applicable from 10/81 - 10/84, so I think it's safe to think that 82 and 83 are the same.

I'm assuming yours is a North America/Canadian BJ42 and not JDM, but the parts diagrams are the same for each regardless.

Im gonna try my local dealer. Online its been replaced with diff part # it says
 
Egads, you're right!

I just looked at my order from December and it is replaced by part # 84231-28010.

I installed it just last week and can at least confirm that it was a perfect fit/replacement.
 
Yes thats the number i keep getting also.

Thanks for the help
 
Wow local toyota said $40 for it and comes from california.
 
A little bit cheaper from Amazon. CAD $35.22, free with Prime shipping.

In fairness, I paid USD $14.06, and the order (with other stuff) included a USD $9.19 shipping charge. or about CAD $30.43 (total) at today's rates.
 
ok ill see what i can dig up for a bit better price.
