Excellent! From the looks of that schematic, the radio I installed last October wouldn't be an issue. I haven't done any other electrical work to the car, so I guess it's a matter of testing all the r...

Went to Toyota, and niece's boyfriend used a scan tool that read coolant sensor. Bought one, and have to wait for the temp to drop. We did check the volts at fan relay no. 1, and with the engine warm,...

Hi Edy,
With the engine ice cold, I followed your procedure. Engine off key on, the fans were running. Pulled the relay, and they continued running. Tested 85 and 86, no voltage. This is a normally cl...

Okay.... I recently tested a relay for continuity, and two terminals caused my meter to beep, and the other two terminals caused my meter to read .064 without beeping. I came across a car forum questi...

Your cousin might not have tapped something else for power, or the radio/amp might have fried. If you have a multimeter, you can check the wire going into the radio for power. If you have power, it's ...

There is an access door in the trunk for the manual switch. It's located on the panel closest to the seat. Open the Velcro panel, and flip the switch to Manual. You can then operate the top without th...

That's what I've been suspecting to be the case, and why I haven't ordered another switch from the dealer. I was going to go to another parts store and test their switches for continuity, but you've s...

Yeah! I saw one of those on Autozone's website. Seems like a simple solution. I googled this problem, and someone said they used a toggle switch when their fans ran all the time. I unplugged the AC si...

Hi Smaay,
It seemed weird that the idle was dropping with the AC, so I did a search here that led to an Autozone idle up valve check and diagram. I went out to the car, and it was still around 400rpm ...

Well.... That didn't work. I took the fan out, and plugged in the new switch, but both fans still came on with ignition turned to ON but engine off. I did get some nice burns, however.
