      Phew, yes. Sometimes it's hard to do what you should always do first. Start with the simplest thing. This has almost become an obsession, figuring out the most basic thing. I have to catch myself forgetting it far too often.

      I hope to be able to get the Land Cruiser back into gear this winter.
      I'm still struggling with the turbo control, and have been thinking about taking on more service jobs at the same time!
      Then maybe there will be more videos, which can help even more 120 series owners in the future too.
      My mistakes, help others avoid the same problems! 😂

      Hello.
      I have not changed the bulbs in the instrumentation itself. But I have started to change the bulbs in some of the switches.
      Take a look at the playlist for the Land Cruiser 120 model, there should be well over 100 videos about these cars!
      ua-cam.com/play/PLOvmu0dPfSDHMHxGFocqVP8oaVD7C5OEF.html
      Then you should probably be able to find a lot of little things that can make life a little easier for us with these cars. They're getting a little old now, so we're just experiencing more and more errors.

      @bildillamagasin thanks Paul I have watch several of your videos. The cam belt one was most useful. Also I pull out my 10amp stop fuse, it had not blown but are replacing it my lights have gone out. They came on due to low brake fluid (I just replaced all the hoses for braided) and I think taking the fuse out cleared the fault code. Will keep an eye out for your next video.

      Yes, I should have done so much more with my 120 series.... But the last year has unfortunately been lost in other things.. For better and for worse.
      The hope is to finish 2 used cars, so I can enjoy working on the enthusiast cars I have standing more.
      My LC120 is still standing, waiting for me to seriously start dismantling and fixing various challenges in the engine compartment..
      Thank you very much for the update! Always nice to have other people's experiences. A fault on a Toyota/Lexus can often be so much more varied than what the information from the lights should indicate!

      @@The_Touring_Jedi Good day!
      Yes this is the challenge with Toyota's system to display all of the lights at once. You get a lot of work to find the fault, if it is not solved with fuse replacement. When the error can lie in many different systems.
      But replace 4 fuses, which melt. Oh dear. Then it really has to draw a lot of power. Would have been "normal" with a completely broken trailer connector, since there is power to light there. Then it can quickly become serious deception.
      But if an error is on there constantly, you do not solve the problem "just by changing the fuse". Then you have to keep looking. Which can be difficult on many cars today. A good OBD2 reader can probably help a bit along the way. But even they, may fall short. Then you have to start looking over / changing, what you can start as easily / reasonably as possible. Unfortunately, often a "simple problem" that stops everything.. Electrical faults can be a simple damage to a cable, which gives an overshoot and the fuse blows.

      I have experienced fused fuse, and difficult contact on one of my cars as well. Do not remember now, which car or which fuse. But after changing the fuse, the new fuse did not break, as it should have. It melted in place. Then it is clear that a lot of power is used, but it is also clear that the fuse I had bought did not work as it should! The wire did not burn off, even though too much current flowed through it.
      There was some frustration, and I had to use pliers to get the metal wire out. Then I had to use a small screwdriver to scrape melted plastic on the connectors.
      But I made it, so it worked again ....
      But the problem that gave such a large power consumption had to be solved before I could continue.

      @@bildillamagasin Everything you described happened to me also. That fuse did not blow as it should have and my Backbox with LED lights is not that power consumer. What really happened is that trailer socket had oxidation and the Amp resistance was so high that it melted 10A fuse. Luckily that fuse socket pins inside are still alive and I placed 7.5A fuse just for a case. Any way the worst thing you can do is to use old trailer socket which have corroded pins. Well we learn by our own mistakes.
      Regarding my ABS problem, mechanic changed front left ABS and the Warning light was still there. Next day I had appointment in the garage again to search for cause of this problem but suddenly all lights dissapered and everything is fine now. Still I have to check it to see what the problem is.

      Hello. Sometimes you can almost go crazy, due to errors that come up due to other things than what the error indicates. I know many who have spent a lot of money on workshops, to change parts ... Then they end up changing fuses. But you learn slowly but surely. But do not ignore the fact that there will be many more videos, where I still manage to make mistakes. You can only try to start with the simplest first, which is often to check fuses. If the new fuse blows immediately, you have to look for what can go on that fuse. But it is often much more than what is written on the lid of the fuse box.
      But now we hope for a nice December, with the possibility of some nice rides in high 4x4, where others do not show up !!

      @bildillamagasin  Рік тому

      Hello.
      This quick solution does not always work. Here in Norway, we struggle a lot with water and dirt getting into the trailer connector. Then we get many different errors on the cars. For the most part, the errors go away when we disconnect the trailer. But error messages remain in the car's computer system. Changing fuses often removes these messages again!
      Several also have to disconnect the power from the car for a while, so that stored error messages can disappear that way as well.
      But a big problem with Toyota / Lexus is that many different errors appear with the same lamps in the dashboard!
      When these simple solutions do not lead, I would try to get error codes read with an OBD2 reader. ( not all OBD2 readers are all wrong!! ). If a simple code reader does not find any codes, you may need help from someone with more advanced OBD2 equipment.
      Good luck!!
      When you find the error, it would be greatly appreciated if you write a message here, so others can learn from it too.

      Good evening
      I would start by checking the fuses. That's the easiest place to start troubleshooting. If a fuse blows on a Toyota, you can get a lot of strange combinations of lights on the instrument panel!
      If you have the opportunity to read the error codes, I would try that too. If you have a code, you sort of have a direction to move on from!
      Another possibility is to try to reset the stored error / error code. With an OBD code reader, or by taking the power to the car and leaving it for a while without power. Some say 5 minutes, others say 20 minutes. Then a lot of stored incorrect information will be deleted by itself. If you're lucky, the car can then recover... But it could be a fault that's there, and then come back anyway!
      But these are good places to start. But it doesn't have to be facite!!! But start with what you can do yourself, without having to go to a workshop and pay in expensive bills!
      Remember that you have to reset the windows after you have turned off the power!!! (land Cruiser, and certainly almost all Toyotas!) This is easy, and you don't have to panic! :) Many have been duped into expensive repairs!!!

      @bildillamagasin  11 місяців тому

      Good day!
      The big problem with Toyota / Lexus, their system, is that a lot of light comes up for the smallest thing. And it often feels like there is very little information to be gleaned from the lights. They can make a poor person think that everything is wrong, when most of the time it is a very small mistake. Bad contact in a sensor, hanger contact problems, etc. Especially here in Norway, we get a lot of strange things due to misalignment in hanger contacts. Winter and a lot of salt on the roads give us many challenges.
      I would start by checking the fuses. Start with the easiest first! If you don't find any errors there, I would try to get the OBD2 code read!
      Since you say speed and turns, there might be something to do with a speed sensor too!?
      Good luck!

      Good day!
      The problem with Toyota's way of lighting up all these error indicators is that there could be so many different things that triggered the "error"
      I would always start by checking fuses! Often a small trifle, which may have blown a fuse. BUT it can be so much more.
      The trailer connector is a standard error, here in Norway! Winter and salt on the roads contribute to causing many problems here.
      But after checking the fuses (without finding more defects), I would try to get the OBDII error codes read.
      Errors can lie in several systems, and you need to find out where the error message originated.

      Where can light current affect the ABS circuit?

      A lot of strange things happen if you have an estimate in that connector on a Land Cruiser! Very strange actually :(
      Estimate of current between tail light and brake light wires?
      Maybe someone else has experienced the same? Hope someone can see the question, and maybe have a better or more correct answer!
      I would try to look over the trailer contacts, if there might be an overlap there, first!

      Good day!
      If you get many lights on the instrument panel at the same time, then the first place to start the investigation is in the fuse boxes! The pore problem can be as simple as a fuse that has passed. The new one may go fast again, but then you have moved on in troubleshooting anyway!
      Too many people drive to the workshop, and pay far too much for them to change the fuse for you!
      Here in Norway, it is so expensive to go to a workshop, that you could take several extra days off from work, for what you saved on and take a little check yourself!

      @bildillamagasin  Рік тому +1

      Hello.
      Yes, it is not unusual here in Norway anyway.
      It could be a physics fault on the sensor, wiring fault etc. etc.
      Often salt and dirt that destroy sensors in this country.
      But have also experienced that this could be due to errors due to other problems. A shim ring on the inside of the wheel bearing on the left front of my car let in dirt. This destroyed the wheel bearing, and the sensor was impossible to get out whole, when I had to replace the wheel bearing, so it was destroyed too.
      I would start by checking fuses, just to be 100% sure it's not something that easy!
      If you have the opportunity to read error codes, it will probably tell you which sensor is causing the error. Then you save yourself some work by checking all 4!
      It could be a fault in a wire, or as simple as a slightly bad contact. Then you might be lucky enough to see this.
      But it is probably most common that the sensor cannot see if there are problems. The sensor is mounted against the wheel bearing, and it starts to take in or is full of dirt. Then it may be a good idea to check other parts around it at the same time.
      Hope it helps you a little on your way!

      Hello.
      The lights come back on after a few minutes, sure I understand you right?
      Here in Norway, there are a lot of problems with the trailer contact. If it has a fault, and you get an estimate of power there, then the same fuse will probably continue to break.
      BUT there can also be other and more complicated errors that make these lights come back.
      Unfortunately, Toyota is a bit unclear and shows exact errors. Then you must try to read out error codes on the car.

      Meant trailer. The problem with the trailer connector causes many errors. Have heard many horror stories about sequelae due to trailer connectors, which have cross-connected.
      On my 2006, then a fuse went. Whether the fault came from the trailer, or from the trailer socket on the car, is a little more unclear.
      In my 2003, the contact itself short-circuited, and now I am struggling to make everything work again.
