This truck is totally dealer stock. My problem now is my old meter is not working, or is beyond my understanding. Might have to get a regular battery meter. Regards, Bob

Thanks. I appreciate the help. I'm no mechanic!

"If it were mine, I'd start by checking all the battery wiring and grounds, then check all of the door jamb switches for operation, if you have power locks check and see if all of those are working (sometimes if they are intermittent failing, the car will continually try to lock the door)...

"Are you asking about checking the current draw by putting the volt meter in series with the battery? I don't know how else you'd check current draw. " Yes. Exactly. They say you disconnect the negative terminal and place the meter between the terminal and clamp, then read the draw.

Hello all. I've got a 2002 4-R with a parasitic current draw. Brand new battery drains almost overnight. I've seen some vids on YouTube about testing, using the negative terminal, but I wonder if disconnecting that will damage the computer or anything? Thanks. Regards, Bob

Hi everyone. Bob here from Florida. We just bought a mint condition 2002 Sport 2WD - and we are in love! I've always wanted a 4Runner, but never thought I would actually get one. Looking forward to learing about this great vehicle here. Regards, Bob 90 dB
