half black multi information LED display

I just replaced a burned out bulb on my Multi display (replaced both since I had it out). It literally took about 4 minutes from start to finish. Incredibly easy fix. Thanks for all the info folks!
 
replaced the right light too

part # 90010-09017

The right side one just burned out, so I picked up a pair and got it replaced. It outlived the left one almost 3 years. I would have replaced both last time but the dealer only had 1 in stock, on a weekend.

I'd trouble unplugging the white wire connector from the back of the module. I pinched the tab and yanked it but it seemed tight. There was plenty of room to replace the bulb with the wires on, just a bit awkward. Can't remember if I'd the issue fixing the left one.

Some local dealer parts asked for $7+ a light.
 
Thanks to all who posted information on this thread. I just bought a 2003 V8 4Runner and this was one of the problems when I bought it. I picked up a bulb from Amazon for about $5 and thanks to the posts here the replacement took about 5 minutes tops.

Here's a link to the Amazon order page:

Great job with these posts!

Good share on Amazon... I had my right half going dim or going out.... not anymore!!! thanks.
 
This is a piece of cake. It takes longer to scroll through the how-to pictures than it does to replace the bulb, assuming you have the bulb on hand. I had to drive eight miles to the Toyota dealer out by DFW airport to buy bulbs. Replaced both at the same time while I was in there.

You really don't need to disconnect the wiring harness if you have a mini flat tip screwdriver. It's less than a five minute job.
 
Extremely easy to pull out the LCD screen. I have an '05 and have had to replace the bulbs twice due to one side being dark. I would replace both bulbs.
Toyota part# 90010-09017. I believe Toyota changed the bulb somewhat to beef up the contacts. This seems to be a pretty common problem.
Also seems like the new bulb doesn't completely twist all the way in due to the different contacts, but it twists in good enough.
Thanks for the info!
 
Mine went out too. Thanks for the i formation guys. Loving this forum already. I tried to post my problem in this section but it says I don't have the permission too... Anyone know why or who I can contact to fix the situation?

Thanks in advance.

 
Multi-info display lights out.

I got 2 x 90010-09015 Little bulbs and took about 10 minutes to put in! This forum rocks. Thank you
 
I have a 2005 4Runner Sport Edition.
I see where you guys are getting the part numbers from.
I went to my dealer and gave him my info and VIN. He gave me an orange long bulb. I assumed that was the one that I needed.

When I got home and took the bulb out, I saw that he gave me the wrong one. I took out a clear short bulb. I went back and he matched up my old one with another one. There was no way that the long bulb would have fit in there.

The bulb that he gave me was: 90010-09017. The one that actually fit was: 90084-81003.

This tells me that the chart that he had and that I've seen on the forum isn't correct for my vehicle. Now, I wonder what chart is for my vehicle?

If I would have taken out the bulb from the panel first and then went to the dealer, I would have saved myself a 30 mile trip.
 
This light went out a few weeks ago when it was negative 15 here in MT. A few days later I had it at a toyota garage to have the transmission fluid changed. They said they'd replace the bulb for $70. I said, nope. Turned on engine, and firmly tapped the screen a few times. Light came back on. Go figure.
