I had this issue and it was driving me nuts. I took it to the dealers and they fixed it within an hour or so. I am extremely happy with the service but i cannot believe Toyota would release these cars without fixing such issues first.

Mine is 2008 btw.

Guys, ever since I took out that centre console. The lights on the gear changer don't turn on. You know the ones where the shifter is, like P R D etc? I have to tap them and then the light turns on. A small inconvenience, does anyone know why its doing this? It happened pretty much after I took out that centre console because of the squeaking.

edit: I'm talking about this:

As you can see its working now, but sometimes I gotta lightly tap that lit up area and the light turns on.

Try removing the bulb from there and see if it is placed properly. The bulb may have accidentally come loose from the socket in the process of removing the trim.

Also, even though this probably isn't the cause since you have narrowed it down to the bulb area, check the connectors indicated in the following photo. The smallest one is the power for the bulb. It wouldn't hurt to check this just in case.

      Fuel usage

      I bought recently a toyota rav4 2024 - XLE regular- and i get on long drives under 7 liters per 100 km, sometimes 6.5 liters per 100 km. But for the first half of the drive the gas mileage is around 8 liters per 100 km. Do you have similar gas mileage?

      Cruise Control Not Engaging

      Got the same issue on my 2005. I am wondering if it's to do with the airbag recall replacement. Might have not been reconnected, or the clock spring doesn't support cruise control. I will have to make time to pull the airbag off and see whether it's visually obvious.

      Hi, I'm new here so not sure what help I can get... I need a new radiator for my Toyota Coaster BB21R but can't find one anywhere, any ideas? Also, I would like a service manual if there is one available (can't find that either). Thanks, John 0418 315 911

      1993 Corolla Seca CSI limited

      Could I please get a copy of the owner's manual that came with this car? I recently purchased the same car unregistered but it came with no owner's manual. Happy to pay for photocopying and postage. Or could you please tell me the part number that is inside the owners manual so I can try and find one on ebay. Many thanks

      Connecting spotlights to high beam on 2011 Hilux

      Conrod. Thanks for this info. I spent about an hour trying to get my brain around this. Your solution worked perfectly.

      Landcruiser Prado (150 series) AVS suspension

      Hi, I have a 2012 Prado (150 series) which is the LC5 (UK top end model) with AVS (suspension). My problem is that I find the AVS very brittle and a bit uncomfortable (on UK road tarmac) compared to my two previous LandCruisers - a 2001 Colorado and a 2006 Prado (120 series) with standard mechanical suspension. In the UK there are so few Prados sold with AVS that the dealers have no knowledge, and there is no Toyota UK technical support. Although I have no warning lights on the dash, there is no difference in the poor ride quality between Firm and Soft settings, thus I feel something must be broken between the dashboard switch and the dampers. Note that my dampers have been checked and two rears replaced, but with no improvement. Does anyone have experience or knowledge of this situation?

      Dangerous rogue dash speaker reflection

      Yeah its the silver surround that not only reflects up onto the windscreen but on the road on the way to and from work reflects the light straight into my eyes. I have just thrown a dark rag over eqch for now as a low tech fix but it looks pretty daggy in a vehicle I am otherwise really happy with. I have asked the dealer how to remove the covers, which they will have to do anyhow as the right one has a small dint in the face. Again only noticeable as the finish is not matt so the dint stands out. I have also messaged JBL nothing back so far.

      93 Landcruiser Trip Meter

      Sorry everyone, made a mistake on the post. Should be the third wheel stuck on 004 and the fourth wheel keeps rotating. Cheers
