1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Let's see if I remember how to do this...

 

U dont have a shop press to push them in?

 

Oh brazing, fun. But thats gunna suck with that torch. Use flux paste

And heat the end, add the soder and pull the heat back so suck it in some so it seals

 

Yeah that.

 

Idk then. Never had to do them yet. I cant picture what it looks like

 

Your issue sounds like the blend door actuator has trash in it. The blower motor is a lot bigger lol and on more on the passenger side, big black thing. Spermrunner is smoking the good stuff tonite. Just work your temp knob back and forth about 100 times, it should clear itself out.

 

The house i was in on my last call was pretty dank....

 

It sealed up surprisingly well, I used a 40% lead solder and kept the heat even but not insane. I blew on it hard and it didn't pop out so I'm happy.

 

Just can't seem to catch a break on these. First time in a LONG TIME they pop up on CL and its for a 2nd gen.

 

haha thanks, yeah I just looked up '2004 Tacoma blend door actuator' and that is exactly what is making the sound. WTF does that thing do anyway?

edit: nm figured it out, heating and climate control

It's definitely an electronic buzz noise, doesn't sound like something ratting around in it but I'll try your advice and see what that does.

 

I think what threw me off was how close up the picture was taken so it looked big

 

Its what your temp knob controls. Mine made the same noise. I just turned the knob about 20 times or so and it went away. Its a little servo buried deep in the dash, but thankfully they dont really ever fail, they just get junk inside the motor.

 

Suuuuuuurrrrrrreeee. pretty hard to miss the single biggest object under the dash.

 

Was it making an electrical buzz sound? Cause mine doesn't sound like trash or something is rattling in it, it's a very distinct electrical "buzz" or "click" that happens every 15 sec or so. I'll try moving the knob a bunch of times and see if that works.

 

Goodguys?

 

I been up sense 6 and behind people fridges all day. Leave me alone lol.

 

Yeah clicked and buzzed, even with the key in the on position. Put it to max cool or hot and mine went away.

 

Trying to clear larger tires? 1" body lifts are really popular on 3rd gen T4R's, dunno why they get so much hate in the Tacoma community. If I knew for sure it would help me clear my 33s without having to cut a bunch more I'd consider one.

 

This.

Pull the fuse for the fan. I bet the noise dies not stop.
