08 problems

Hey everyone first time posting
I'm having heater problems over the last little while my heat only comes on when it's set on high with it occasionally coming on intermittently when set on the medium range and today it completely stopped. Is this a typical Tacoma problem or is it just my truck

 

never had the problem on mine, i have an 08 to. it could be your climate control but thats just a guess. i know there is no recall or anything on that. i would get it checked out and get a price for it, if its expensive dont even bother fixing it since winter is pretty much over, unless u live in a cold place.

 

forgot to mention, my buddy has an 08 as well and he never had a problem. uncle has a 09 and he didnt have a problem either.

 

Hello and welcome to Tacoma World.
I would think the switch is the issue and shouldn't be pricey or difficult to do.
Lots of info here just gotta do the homework.

This is your issue very common second gen problem, it affects your bower so heat or AC will be affected. You can clean the resistor or may need replacemen. It is an easy DIY.

 

Sometimes the plug gets burned or damaged as well you can get both parts as a kit. http://www.partsgeek.com/44r34h7-to...hvac+blower+motor+resistor+kit&ad=11620898087

This worked for me, i cleaned the pins, bent it down for better contact and haven't had an issue yet.
