I researched 'non Toyota spec' leads and discovered a few that are [basically] a long rigid rubber torpedo, snapping onto the plug but not sealing the tube :frown:
My 'right turn' stalk is getting a nuisance with Bzzz Bzzz Bzzz and NOT flashing the turn lamps....
I have read a detailed stripdown/fix [on Ih8mud forum] and have lots of pictures of the basic construction.
Later Toyotas have the stalk as a 'plug in' unit.... Mine (and MR2) is a complete alloy do-nut around the column.
Wheel off, cowlings removed and then unplug/test/strip as required.
The part I picked up off eBay [V Cheeep!] is a Mk2 MR2 assembly.... But I only want to rob bits so it wont matter. They seem all very basically similar tbh
It can't be too bad because when I push forward [full beam position] the turn switch performs perfectly....
Looking forward to the job - I love taking stuff to bits!
Need a deep 19MM socket, retighten 25 ft/lb. :nerd:
My MR2 stalks arrived today, along with my 19MM socket & M6 stainless wingnuts (for locating the cambox cover).
Just clearing a spot for taking a peek at the actual 'winker' contacts.... For some insight into their condition (here, s/hand) and how I might fix 'in situ', perhaps, mine on the car.
..... the bit of tinplated brass that slides across the pips was 'worn bright' = should have a matte tinning finish :surprise:
The piece from eBay, my MR2 switch is mint... So just swapped over and I 'lightly scuffed' the surface of the pips with the edge of my jewellers screwdriver. Re-smeared everything with the excess/clean grease from under the cover and clipped everything back in place.
.... sharpie pen mark to keep wheel back in correct spot!
The nut was finger tight - likely years of folks heaving out.. Fitters arm crank retighten! NaaPraablem :smile:
Hey Yall! I was seeing if anyone here had any accessory parts for a 78 Corona Station wagon? I have an all original in Virginia, USA, that I am working on.
Whats up! I got myself a wagon recently and I'm pretty stoked to get it on the road. I've wanted one of these for as long as I can remember so when I saw this for ridiculously cheap I had to grab it! My plans for it so far are basically just to clean it up and get it driving. It currently has an...
I have 2 identical, (except for color) 1.6 1997 Corollas with about 130,000 miles on each of them. I have owned one for about 12 years and the other for 8 years. They are great cars. I have put a combined 150,000 miles on them. I have had the timing belts replaced and have had the regular...
I am not an audiophile, but it seems like my speakers are sounding muddy. Having hearing aids probably doesn't help. Anyone have any recommendations on replacing them? I installed an aftermarket Pioneer MVH-X370BT so I could get Bluetooth. I would rather not deal with amplifiers if possible...
