I disconnected the battery for 10 minutes, no luck there. Fuses 26 and 29 look fine. I did notice the #27 AM2 Starter System 7.5A fuse is missing. Strange. 4runner starts fine.

Hi, I changed the battery in my 2011 Trail 4runner yesterday and now the Navigation Unit is not working. History--the touch screen stopped working well about a year ago. I replaced the screen but 2 new screens only worked intermittently. Everything else worked on the Navigation Unit worked...

Great. Thanks for the confirmation. I won't worry about it and I have learned something new.

Thanks so much, pianorocks06 and Travisstorma. I will just leave it then and mention it next time I take the 4runner into the dealer. I also have a feeling it is common here because it is very dry. Especially at night, whenever I put metal to metal I see a small spark. I also get a shock...

Hi, I went to Autozone for a new battery for my 2011 Trail 4runner. After installing it, the man said I have a short somewhere because he saw a spark when putting on the positive cable. It must have been a small spark because I was watching and I didn’t see it. He told me to take the car in...

Thanks everyone! Yes, the mechanics don't seem to know and I am somewhat surprised they wouldn't have heard about this somewhere. Some of them aren't young. I am using the stock size so years ago I must have used a LT Load Inflation Table to figure out that I needed 46-47. I have been...

Hi All, I have Bridgestone Dueler Revo 2 LT Load Range E tires on my 2011 4runner. Years ago, when I purchased the tires I did extensive research and wrote down that I need 46-47 PSI in each tire. I don't remember where and how I got this information. It might have been a chart and using the...

Great. Thanks 1engineer. Sounds good and I am glad to hear that. I felt so bad when the battery died and I had neglected my beautiful 4runner.

Thanks cbielat. I have considered the battery tender but even with keeping the battery charged there may be other problems with not using the truck. And so I thought driving it at least once a week would take care of the battery and lubricants etc. I also try to remember to use the air...

Oh yea. I do try to use the 4 wheel drive in order to lubricate it. But since I am not off road I just take it on the highway and on a straight part of the road I turn it on for a while. It wouldn't be for 10 miles though. How important is it to do the recommended 10 miles a month? Thanks...

Hi All, I own a 2011 4runner and I love it. Always can't wait to go on the next off road trip. The problem is we also have a Prius and now to save money my family usually drives the Prius unless we are doing anything off road where we would need the 4runner. We got busy and didn't do any off...

Thanks JB. I am so excited and not worried about the trip any more. I have the same tires as you because of your reviews and helpful advice. I am really enjoying them. Thanks again for that.

Perfect info. Thanks so much gotama. This is exactly what I was looking for. Yes I saw that route with the red dotted line and it has been recommended several times so you have now confirmed this is the route I will take. I will still call the BLM just to be sure there is no updated info...

Has Anyone Been to White Pocket in AZ? Deep Sand! Hi All: In a couple of weeks I plan to take my family to White Pocket in Northwest Arizona. It looks to be a spectacular place and from what I have read a little difficult to get there because of the deep sand. I have a 2011 TE (stock) and...

Great. Thanks, JB
