Thanks ! I will try this

Hello! Wondering if there are pics from people who have fixed this issue- both seat belts are very slow to retract (front). Any help will be appreciated !

I read in a post that you can get the volt measure from the alternator by connecting the multimeter to the alternador post. It’s easily accessed you just need to remove the plastic cap. Now. If you follow the Alt-S fuse in the engine bay, there are 3 wires that connects to a plug just below...

The battery light at the dash is triggered by the alternator wiring, take a look at your voltage when the car is idle, in Parked, if it’s dropping it will trigger the light.

Thanks, we checked the wiring, it was messy. Put a new plug. Turns out my alternator had bad diodes, causing the parasitic draw, all good now!

Hey, I’m also chasing a P0306 for a few weeks, no radiator leaks, good compression, changed coils and spark plugs look ok. I found this document that may be helpful for you since you are also having another code along with the missfire.

Thanks ! This helps ! Weird. My plug and wires are different colors than what the diagram shows. I wonder if something in the wiring could be causing the parasitic draw. The purple wire (Pin1) is the one with no connector.

Bought this one a couple of months ago. V6 2006, 253k miles Painted OEM wheels, replaced front suspension with Tacoma shocks and struts, added a TRD ‘ish grill .. love it <blockquote class="imgur-embed-pub" lang="en" data-id="a/Bw4LQtv" ><a href="//imgur.com/a/Bw4LQtv">2006...

2006, v6. I have a bad parasitic draw, around 300-400 milliamps, I was able to track it to the Alt/S fuse, if I remove it would drop to approx 50 milliamps. I found that if I remove the wire plug from the alternator I get the same effect in my draw. I see there are 3 wires going to my plug...

Did the TPMS bypass, finally, it feels peaceful

Replaced the transmission fluid and filter from my new to me 2006 (230k miles), oil was dark but no metal residuos, I was experiencing a noticeable shudder at 30_40 mph , shudder is gone !

Ty for this, no wonder I didn’t find any wires online lol I have the v6; there’s was no coolant when I checked (let the car overnight and removed the spark plug) but I have read about the head gasket issue. I will check that. I’m also thinking, what if the new coil is bad? I’m thinking I...

I’ve been trying to solve a mystery. Missfire at cyl 6. Put a new coil, checked spark plug. Good. Checked for coolant leak (just in case) - good. The car ran fine after a few days I put the new coil and today when I started in the morning was rough and checked engine light came back. I’m...

Thanks for the info! Hey nice 4R! What’s the bumper you have? Looks great

Thanks! I’ll be checking it out, I don’t tow anything - I’ll also look into the cooler
