Toyota - Sienna :: All Dashboard Indicators On - Speedometer / Odometer And Window Controls Stopped Working?

I was on a highway on my Toyota Sienna LE 2012 today and hit a minor bump (the steel protrusions on road you feel when driving over a bridge) I first thought the tire pressure signal come on, slowed down and it seemed OK. All indicators - Check Engine, ABS, VSC, Brake, Pressure, etc were also ON, speedometer, odometer not working and I stopped under a mile at a gas station. Turned off car, checked tire pressure, it was OK and restarted car - all indicators still ON, speedometer, odometer and power window controls do not work. Steering feels tight but I can drive car - I was on my way to JFK Airport and on Beltway Pky East another 10mi to go yo JFK. Car drove fine, but with all these indicators on, and steering what felt like manual.

I plan on taking car for service tomorrow but I have never remotely experienced anything like this on a car. I am also worried I messed up the car (and dangerous if something else happened...) driving to get to the airport. What could have gone wrong?

Golf IV R32 :: Clicks Inside Dashboard When Indicators Are On

The device that clicks inside the dashboard when my indicators are on is clicking at random. It only stops if it's being used either by my indicator or hazards. Is this a relay problem? Is this a simple relay issue? It's not causing my lights to light up, just clicking. It's getting annoying real fast.

Touareg :: Turn Signal Indicators Not Working?

New to the Touareg game, but i have had (4) vw's including my R32 (Touareg is my wife's car) and we are experiencing our first problem. Wife called me on the phone and said that the turn signal indicators on the dash are NOT working but the signal lamps on the outside of the vehicle ARE working.

I haven't been able to check the car yet seeing as she is not home and I am still at work. So I guess my question would be, could it be a fuse? or what... electrical gremlin...? I had her shut the car off and take the key out of the ignition and then start the car back up but no dice...

Celica :: 1996 - Service Reminder Indicators Not Working

I have a 1996 Celica GT and I am having problems with the service reminder indicators within the instrument cluster panel. I recently had the car inspected in Pennsylvania and I was told that some of the service indicators were not working so they failed the cars inspection. Some of these indicators should illuminate when the ignition key is turned to the ACC or ON position(s). Currently, the only indicators that light up when the key is turned to the ACC or ON position are the SRS Airbag Warning light that stays lit for about six seconds, the BRAKE indicator, the low oil pressure warning light and the bing bing bing sound that my seatbelt is not fastened with no indicator light showing up in the instrument cluster. The CHECK ENGINE and the ABS lights do not light up either.

I removed the instrument cluster and found the CHECK ENGINE bulb was blown so I replaced the bulb and reinstalled the instrument cluster. Per the manual, I checked the 7.5 amp fuse labeled 'instrument panel lights' in position #22 per the diagram and found the fuse to be in good working order. I also checked the 10 amp fuse labeled 'gauges and meters' in position #32 per the diagram and found the fuse to be in good working order. No change to the status of the lights as described above. My daughter did assure me that these lights worked at some point over the past year (she was away at college).

Camry :: 2003 Toyota - Gurgling Noise Coming From Dashboard

I own a 2003 Toyota Camry and whenever I press on the accelerator, I have noticed a gurgling sound coming from the dashboard. I have also noticed radiator fluid backing up into the reservoir, but the car is not overheating. I have already replaced the thermostat and drained the system and filled it with new radiator fluid. That has not worked. Why this is happening.

Ford 7.3L Power Stroke (1999-2003) :: Dashboard Lights Not Working?

I have looked all over the Internet, but I can't find out how to change the lights on the dashboard. I have checked all the fuses. I have no clue have to check the dimmer switch. Though, the over head light does come on when I turn on the switch. All the lights for the check engine and such light up. The dash will not light up during the night. Someone told me that there should be a youtube video or a how to steps. I am very new to fixing my new to me truck. I have checked the how to steps on this forum and a few others.

Camry :: 2003 With Sludge 3mz-fe - Check Engine And Oil Indicators Came On

My wife has a 2003 Camry LE with the 3mz-fe V6. First, from what I have seen, these engines appeared in 2004 models, but that's what's in it. Anyway, she doesn't take care of her car and the other night the check engine and oil indicators came on. Having been through this with a VW Passat (known sludge engine) myself, I immediately suspected a sludge issue. The next day, I had a mechanic come over and check it. He pulled one of the valve covers and sure enough, there was sludge everywhere, some of the oil journals completely occluded.

So, the question is what to do? As I said, I've been through this myself. When it first happened, I had to have main bearings replaced and they flushed the motor well enough to get normal oil pressure. It wasn't 3 months before the same thing happened. They flushed it again enough to get the oil pressure back to normal and I got rid of it that weekend. I know flushing the Camry could solve the problem, but could just as easily push sludge into other parts of the engine and give me a nice deja-vu. The other options are to have the motor rebuilt or buy a used motor. The car has 80K on it so I'm thinking a remanufactured engine.

Toyota - Sienna :: 2003 - Radio Stopped Working

I have a 2003 Toyota Sienna. The radio has stopped working. All other electrical parts of the car appear to be in fine working order. I found the Radio-No.2 fuse (7.5A) beneath the dash and replaced it with the working 7.5A (working) turning signal with no luck. (The radio fuse DID work when placed in the turning signal fuse slot). So it cannot be this fuse.

Is there a Radio-No.1 fuse? Unfortunately, this car did not come with a owners manual. If so where would I find it?Or could this be a different problem? What else should I look for.

Toyota - Avalon :: 2001 - Overheating Dashboard Electronics

I have a Toyota Avalon 2001. When the dashboard multi-display reports a temperature >84oF, the clock and/or trip odometers reset, and other readings go blank.When the car cools sufficiently, all functions resume (though clock time has to be reset).

The problem has been narrowed to the multi-display module or its connectors.

Is there a way to keep the car interior cool when it sits unused in a parking lot?

I currently leave the windows open ~2in behind rain covers, installed last year, that prevent unpredictable thunderstorms from introducing mold through the partially opened windows.I currently use a reflector in the window. Both of these observably drop the cabin temperature ~20oF ,yet it is not enough.I have tried a fan, powered by the car's battery, but extrapolation from measurements indicates that before any fan moves enough air to have significant effect, it will leave the battery too drained to start the car.A solar panel powered fan generates more heat than it removes.

Is there a way to remove the expose (and reseat) the multi display connectors, by just removing the padding above the dashboard?

I have the service manual, but have not yet found how to get access to the multi display, without removing the seats, and all cowlings from the center console forward.

Toyota - Sienna :: 1998 - Dashboard Lost Illumination In Several Bulbs

I have a 1998 Sienna (at 300k miles I want to drive until it’s dead) and the dashboard has lost illumination in several bulbs. The fuses are good and the bulbs seem fine, but there is a bad connection somewhere. I would like to start cleaning contacts in some of the junctions before tearing the dash apart again.

Which brings me to the big question: where should I look for connections that I can clean so I am sure the electrical system is providing a proper current to the dash bulbs? Besides the idiot lights (working), all I have at the moment is a single bulb that illuminates half the speedometer, while the tach and rest of the dash and air conditioning controls are dark.

As I’ve had other wiring harness connections become corroded and need cleaning over time, need to determine where to begin opening connections to clean before tearing the dash apart.

I've got a random noise under my dashboard in my 2001 Toyota Avalon. It lasts for about 15-20 seconds. Sometimes weeks go by and it doesn't happen then a number of times a day. Sometimes when I start it up, other times randomly through the day while driving. I was very lucky and was able to capture it and post to YouTube. What it is?

Toyota - Camry :: 2000 - Lights On The Dashboard Turn On But Car Won't Start

2000 Camry 4 CYL ... Very sporadically, the car won't start. The battery was replaced a year ago, so that's not the problem. The lights on the dashboard turn on, but there is no sound and the car won't turn on. After turning the key 10-12 times, the car finally starts. It happens in rain, no rain, mild or hot weather. There just does not seem to be a reason. We had the mechanic change the spark plugs, but that didn't work. He doesn't want to start replacing things willy-nilly until he can duplicate the problem in his shop. We just don't want our daughter out late at night, and have THAT be the one time the car refuses to start.

Toyota - 4runner :: 2004 - Air Only Comes Out Of Dashboard Vents / Buzzing For 10 Seconds

Symptoms:

1. When the air is on, it only comes out of the dashboard vents. If I change the flow to be all on the floor, defrost windshield, or anything else, it won't change the direction of the air; it continues to come out of the dashboard front air vents.

2. There is a buzzing that lasts from start for about 10 sec. It then quits. It will come back on for a couple seconds and then go off. It is only in the cabin; cannot be heard outside the car. If we turn off the air, the buzzing stops, but not immediately.
