Hi there,

I hope everyone is well.

My question is about my 2023 4Runner TRD Pro. The USB power ports stoped working and I was wondering if anyone knows where are the fuse located. I know the main fuse box in the engine bay and the one inside the cabin. But, I don't know which is the one. Thanks a bunch.

Thu, 30 Nov 2023 00:54:56 -0700

My brakes have no play all of a sudden, very hard to stop even pushing as hard as I can. The blinkers went out at the same time. I've checked fuses and none blown, wipers also just cut out. 95 Toyota 4runner 4x4

1995-2002 Toyota 4Runner: Soft brakes when engine is running

Tue, 26 Sep 2023 19:30:22 -0700

As the title says, I am dealing with soft brakes while the engine is running on my 2000 Toyota 4runner. Prior to this my master cylinder went out. So I have replaced the master cylinder, brake booster, rear wheel cylinders. I have bleed everything properly, I have no air in my lines nor leaks, i do have vacuum on the booster. I have also bleed them several times for countless hours. I also took off the master cylinder and rebleed it thinking there was trapped air, and still nothing. Any ideas out there?

1990-1995 Toyota 4Runner: Why aren't my tach and speedometer working?

Wed, 09 Mar 2022 08:16:30 -0700

I just bought a 92 4runner that needs a fair bit of TLC. It runs well, but there are a few things that I'm leary of. 1st, I need to know how I can fix my speedometer and tachometer (note, only those two dont work. The rest of my gauges work fine).

2nd, (bonus question), how would I go about reconnecting my ebrake cable?

According to the previous owner, when he had the engine swapped (it was the 2.9, but he swapped it for the 3.4), the mechanic simply didnt reconnect the sensors for the tach/speedo. Additionally, by what he said, the ebrake was disconnected for some work he did himself, he just never got around to putting the cable back in.

Just in case it makes a difference, it's a 5 speed manual, 4x4. Anything anyone needs to know, just ask.

2010-Present Toyota 4Runner: Locked my keys in my car

Tue, 18 Jan 2022 21:47:33 -0700

I locked my keys in my car on 2013 4Runner. It’s cold out and I did this on purpose because I have another key but that key won’t unlock it. Is there anyway I can use the key to get into my car? I tried turning the manual key but not sure if it’s not working because it’s so cold out or because that’s not possible.

When driving down the road, the vehicle drifts and is difficult to keep going in a straight path. This symptom occurs while driving at any speed. What is wrong with the truck?
