come on is noone willing to walk out side, pop the hood, pull their cap off and take a picture, the junkyard just has a big bin of powersteering caps, you have to match your own. and if i got a pic today i could drive my car back from charlotte with out counting on ducttape to hold fluid in
different engine. I have 2.2L 5SFE. I was about to take a picture of that but it is a different part according to 1sttoyotaparts.
And I work for advance, so honestly junkyard is probably the best bet. The only PS caps any auto parts stores will carry will be a few just for GM and Ford.

if you dont mind please post a picture of the cap anyways, maybe its the same
No, it is not the same. The 5S-FE has a clear reservoir, so the fluid level is determined by markings on the reservoir itself. The 4A-FE has a metal reservoir, so it used a cap with a dip stick on it, one side that shows the proper level with cold fluid, the other for hot fluid.
I'm sure if you find a salvage yard that has Corollas, Celicas, Geo Prizms for the 1990-1993 era, you will find one that has the 4A-FE engine on it, and the power steering pump setup is the same on all of them, so just pull the cap off of one and you will have what you need. Matching a picture to hundreds of caps will probably cause you to select the wrong one.

they have them in buckets to the local scrap yards i have to play the match to a picture game, if someone can find on to their yard let me know plz
also i get a few issues im working on figuring out, where is the fuse for the dome light? id look in the manual but i dont have a manual, i checked all the fuses on the drivers side kick pannel
That's too bad that you don't have another option for a salvage yard that you can go out and get what you need. If you had some time, I could pick one up for you and send it to you for the cost of shipping and whatever the boneyard charges. But it would take more than a week or so for you to get it. I wasn't planning on heading out to a boneyard anytime soon.
Probably should start a new thread regarding your dome light, but I'll ask a few questions here:
1. Does your dome light come on when you manually move the switch to "ON"?
2. Are you sure your lamp isn't burned out?
Your dome fuse (20 amp) is located in the junction box under the hood, at the front, near the radiator and battery. It is actually bolted to the brackets holding the battery down. You will see on the cover images (squares, rectangles, circles) identifying relays and fuses. You will see one rectangular image with a "20A" inside the rectangle, and "DOME" written underneath it. That is the location of your dome fuse. Just take the cover off and check this fuse, if you are sure the lamp is not burned out.

no it dont turn on, and the bulbs fine, i tested for power there and nothing so ill check that fuse i glanced there but heck ill look agian
and sure i can wait on the cap but im gonna go look again i have the car now and shes on my cardomain
It could be that your dome switch, or the wiring to the dome switch, is bad too. Could be a lot of little things.
The door courtesy switches always fail on these cars, but as long as your at trying to turn the dome switch itself on and you know the lamp is good, could be the fuse we talked about, the dome light assembly, or the wiring harness leading to the dome light assembly.
Sounds like you have several projects. I restored a 65 Skylark Gran Sport convertible once, a long time ago. I'm sure you will have a lot of fun with that project.
