  1. I would appreciate your advice on this issue as i have the same problem with a 2004 Kluger Grande - Could I have the details of who fixed yours? Can you advise where i could get it done in Melbourne? Thanks Tim Tim, Peter, Leon, anybody, I have the same problem with my 2004 Kluger Grande. I had the display unit removed and took it to an electrician, he followed Peter's instructions and yesterday we installed it back but this morning it still has the same problem. Can you tell me who fixed your display. I live in Hervey Bay, Queensland and it would be great if I could get the nearest technician. My email: rassaf1@yahoo.com Regards, Rabih (Rob)
  2. Mine's now fixed too!! Followed Peterlts's research and advice. It was exactly the same problem...
  3. Sorry to hear that Peter. No, I haven't been able to resolve the issue, but it hasn't been thru lack of trying... I have isolated the problem to a specific Printed Circuit Board that has the following information printed on a blue sticker: >> >> "Board, Multidisplay No.2 >> >> Toyota >> >> 86114 - 48010 >> >> 134160 - 6820 12V >> >> Fujitsu Ten Limited, Japan" >> >> On the reverse side is the number: 134941-4400 F910 I have been to Fujitsu Ten Australia. They say they can't repair boards, and they won't supply me with a replacement board, because the MFD unit was supplied by another company called Denso. I went to Denso. They say they can't repair boards, and they can't supply a replacement board because Fujitsu Ten Limited Japan won't supply them with replacement boards!! The only solution Denso will offer is to supply a complete changeover unit for $2200. I don't have that sort of money, but wouldn't pay that much anyway for 10 year old technology - it's a total rip off. I have contacted Fujitsu Ten Limited Japan directly to try to get a replacement board, but they won't deal with me and have just referred me back to Denso. So much for customer service... I have located a couple of MFD units at Toyota wreckers, but they are in on the act as well, asking as much as $2500 for them. I have spoken to a few companies that specialise in automotive electronics remanufacture and repair of circuit boards. They work on all makes and models EXCEPT Toyota. They say this is because Toyota won't provide circuit diagrams whereas other car manufacturers will. I'm out of ideas on what to do. Toyota, Fujitsu Ten and Denso have created a ludicrous situation for their supposed "valued customers", and it has ruined my family's enjoyment of the Kluger. The pity of it is that, apart from the stupid single point of failure design of the MFD system, it is a great car.
  4. I have exactly the same problem in an 04 Kluger. Did u resolve it? Peter
  5. An intermittant fault has developed with the Navigation System / Multi Function Display. Typically, when I first start the car, the Trip Info screen comes up but there is no data in it - i.e. no temperature reading, no yellow fuel usage bar etc. If I press the Map key, the message "external system is not connected" comes up. If I press the climate key, the message "check air con is connected properly" comes up. The Audio system doesn't work either. After about 10 minutes of driving, everything will suddenly start to work normally - all the systems, all the data. Sometimes it will continue to work normally until the ignition is switched off, but other times it will close down again after 10 or so minutes of driving, and then start working again after another 10 or so minutes. I took the car to a Toyota Dealership. They said they hadn't seen the fault previously in this model Kluger. To fix it, they said they would remove the unit and send it to Fujitsu 10 for repair. They quoted about $800 to remove and reinstall the unit, plus whatever Fujitsu 10 charged for the repair - which might be thousands... I'm hoping someone has got some good advice, or has had some experience with this type of fault and can suggest a better option than the Dealership's one.
  6. Thanks for the comments Roger. Do you know where I could get the schematic from? How do you de-pressurise the fuel system? Are you speaking from experience re the spark plugs - what makes them so difficult?
  7. G'day all, I'm trying to do some home maintenance on my 2003 Kluger Grande. Have done the engine oil, oil filter, air filter, but the fuel filter I got from Toyota in Ferntree Gully is not like anything I have seen before - it is a large white plastic contraption (my 2 hands only just fit around it when clasped). The box describes it as "Filter Assy, Fuel, T23300-20130". Has any-one done one before? Does any-one know where I could find a description of the process to replace? Appreciate any advice.
