Thanks for the tips! I had my ECU act up, causing all sorts of failures. Clearing the codes and checking for loose connections solved my issue. Highly recommend it!
Glad that worked for you! I was worried I might need a new ECU when mine started acting weird, but it turned out to be just a loose wire.
My headlight relay went out last summer, and it was such a hassle! Now I keep a spare relay in my glove box just in case.
Smart move! Those relays can be a real pain. Always worth having a backup!

I once tried to diagnose my 4Runner’s electrical issues without a manual, and it was like wandering in the dark! A repair manual is SO helpful.
So true! It’s amazing what a good manual can do. Plus, they often have great wiring diagrams!

Has anyone had issues with the power windows getting stuck? Mine work sometimes, and sometimes they just don’t budge! Frustrating!
Yes! Check the switch; sometimes they just get dirty or the contacts wear out. A little cleaning can do wonders!
Remember, all electrical issues can feel like a maze. It’s helpful to have patience, break it down into sections, and tackle one problem at a time.

Whenever I fix something on my 4Runner, I swear it’s like assembling IKEA furniture—there’s always extra pieces, and I’m never quite sure if I did it right. Ha!
