    One thing about switches or indicators, when they fail, you may not see an error only because on or off is "normal" operation.

    Glad you got it sorted.

    Yeah, I went back and forth on that one. Two steps further apart or three closer together.
    The top step makes getting out slightly easier but would have been fine without it.

    Yeah so I guess I cut my starter control circuit wire on my alternator pulley/belt last night when I was driving, and when I went to start the 4Runner this morning, I popped the AM1 40A fuse since that wire has been cut and no power had gone to the starter until I tried to start the 4Runner again. It’s fixed and up and running

    So now that the 4Runner is running and I can’t go wheel today, I guess I’ll clean some wiring up

    Come on man. It's literally like riding a bike. lol

    Getting back in shape is a whole lot more difficult. Go until you drop. Get up. Repeat. That should get you in fighting shape in a few weeks. lol

    Went from 3rd Gen Taco to 3GT4R to 2nd Gen Taco and finally a V8 4GT4R.
    does the JBA not have a attachment point for that line?

    Lupita did a fantastic job today. Chavelas to go-that was kinda risky but it worked!
