    Me too This just happened to me today too. What did you find out?? I have a 2000 4r that is in perfect condition. The light came on while the truck was idling. The thing runs fine and shifts when it should?? Going to clear code and pray, but am curious about what you found out. Thanks

    Voltage regulator upgrade

    It's The internal voltage regulator in the alternator that is bad. I thought I could just swap out the VR for one that will allow more current output. Probably will do that mod to the new alternator in case there is something else is wrong with the old one. Is there an aftermarket voltage...

    Voltage regulator upgrade

    My 4runner has died a few times lately so I had both alternator and battery tested, in the car, and the national shop said both were bad. I had doubts, so I removed both battery and alternator and took them in to be bench tested and they tested OK...don't you love random electrical problems)...

    Mystery problem

    Drove this morning for 10 minutes with no problems, parked and went fishing (3 hours). When I came back and started my 2000 v6 4runner the water pump was growling. Drove for 1 minute shut the engine and opened the radiator.. luke warm fluid comes out under pressure (nothing strange so far)...

    How to fix door stops on 2000 4runner

    Every time I park on a hill I nearly break an ankle because my doors won't stay open. Has anyone replaced the tension device on one of these? I know I could figure it out but thought I'd ask first since I'm up in Alaska and a quick trip to a well stocked store is not an option and I don't want...
