Can anyone help out? The seatbelt indicator on the dashboard turns off after a little bit about the same time as the airbag indicator.

When I connect or disconnect the seatbelt, the indicator is always off.

how do i fix this?

I'm pretty sure that's how it's meant to work as there's no electrical componets in the seatbelt.

My 97 (same series) has always acted as you described.

It's just a warning light like many others that lights up on ignition to remind you about it.

yep thats exactly right. My Camry at the moment is like that aswell. the seatbelt light flashes for a few seconds on startup and then stops, regardless of if i have my seatbelt on or not.

my dads Kluger for example does have electrical stuff in the front seats for this, you can see the wire going into the seatbelt buckle and also there is a pressure sensor in the seat itself. This does have the seatbelt light flash when you sit in the seat and when you have the seatbelt off.

nope.

mine used to be on after u disconnect your seatbelt. i have no electrical components in the front seats either.

so for those of u who have a camry, the seatbelt light IS SUPPOSED to turn on if u disconnect your seatbeat at any period during driving.

the reason mine stopped doing that is because i changed my head unit. i noticed that the original head unit has 2 main plug inserts. my original toyota head unit is the tape and cd combo. when i placed the original head unit, the seatbelt light remains on after u disengage your belt during driving.

after my new headunit was installed that stopped happening....

if u have the original head unit then...i have no idea. but theres supposed to be a separate seatbelt warning, other than the warning light and the airbag light.

Well, I had a 94 Camry, went from original head unit, to aftermarket, back to original head unit...

The seatbelt light made no difference. The same applies to my 95 Touring.

Maybe the Advantage series had a seatbelt detector??? Dunno... But I know for sure that the Gen 3s and 4s don't have this function (unless the Grande did)

      Door seals - causing internal leak

      Hi experts need some help. I have a 2004 Sahara 100series. With all this rain we are having my car has started leaking. It was my father in laws car. It’s leaking water down the pillar trim where the handle is inside front seats onto the dash, down the side of airbag and glovebox and dripping from corner foot area where dash ends and onto the floor. I can see the seal on the roof above the door has a gap in it. Could this be it? 1Q. Who would I get to look at this? 2Q. Anyone had this issue before? 3Q. Where do I begin. Thanks in advance, Sarah IMG_3589.mov

      FUEL WARNING MESSAGE

      Kanga, You wouldn't believe it, I found a pump at a Victorian wrecker. He posted it to me but to the wrong address. It was 10 days before I found this out. I went to the wrong address and they said the didn't see it. Austpost is adamant it was delivered. The wrecker fortunately has another one. So, I haven't taken the old one out yet.

      FUEL WARNING MESSAGE

      Just tested before - I think its dead. No noise - nothing. I also note that the power supply I have actually delivers a really high-pitched noise when it is on. When you connect it to something, that noise goes away. In this case, when I connect to the terminals, the noise remains. I'm going to have to get inside to look further. Unfortunately, I simply don't have the room to do a job like that. Geoff, did you have any luck getting yours out through the inspection hole mate? I'd seen a few Lexus owners actually cut the inspection hole to get this part out without dropping the tank. Each to their own, but I'm looking to avoid anything that invasive....

      Typical Price for a Replacement Key - 2000 Toyota Torago

      Just let me preface this by saying I know very little about cars in general, so apologies if I get some basic info wrong here. Ive lost the key to my 2000 Toyota Torago. I rang up a local locksmith to get a quote on a replacement key, and apparently it'll cost $1200 for two keys?? The old key didn't even have any electronics in it, it was just a basic key. Not button unlock or anything. I've gotten an electronic car key cut before and it only came to $400! This price for a key without a chip seems extortionate to me. Can someone please let me know if this price is normal, and if so why the hell its so expensive? Thanks in advance for the help! Here's all the information I think is relevant to the car (let me know if more is needed): TOYOTA TARAGO ACR30 II 16V 2.4L 2AZ-FE DOHC 16v Petrol 4cyl 115kW MPV FWD [02/00-02/06] Compliance plate / RAV entry date: 04/2000

      FUEL WARNING MESSAGE

      On my 2002 Prado, the fuel transfer pump has a fuel filter which can block, causing increasingly less fuel transfer between the tanks. It may be the same for the Cruiser too. I have not yet had an issue with mine even at 250000km, but that is low mileage for a 2002 Prado. I hope that you have a filter that can be easily replaced. It could save you a pump replacement.

      2002 Hilux Engine Replacement

      Unless you can identify which engine your Hilux has now, you may be better off finding a good 5LE engine and return it to stock. Nice to have a Turbo diesel though. Have you tried taking a photo of the engine and posting it so others can advise what engine you have. It may be better to have your engine overhauled. If you can locate the engine number (should be on the registration papers if the engine swap was done legit), you might be able to ID the engine that way too. Do you know why the engine seized? It may be possible to overhaul your engine cheaper than replacing it.

      Transmission clunk

      Hi all, Recently completed a long drive. Check engine light came on, traction control off light came on, unable to use cruise control. Pulled immediately over all oil level were good and no leaks. then when accelerating through the gears ( automatic Prado ) hearing and feeling a clunk on each gear ( like it was hard to select). Prado is unable to go into 5th & 6th gear. Maxed out in 4th gear at 90km/h @ 2500rpm. Later in the drive DPF light came on though I have a July 2015 build. DPF introduced in October 2015 that I am aware off. Any ideas at all would be grateful!

      Yes, with 12v applied to the pump you can definitely hear it whirring if it is working. Kind regards Geoff
