Thanks for the great video!! It really helped me, I drive a 1987 Toyota Camry wagon, that light on the climate control has been burnt out for years, I tried to figure out how to remove it. I thought the light bulb was behind the climate control and you pull it out, but after seeing your video I figured it out!! Thanks!!
Nice video thanks. The cold/hot slide control lever on the a/c heater climate control in my '87 4Runner is messed up have you ever removed the climate control assembly and worked on it and if so do you have a video of it? I had the heater control valve on the fire wall of the engine bay replaced but that did not fix it so it must have been the cable but now the control lever is really messed up. Thanks in advance.
Don't have any videos on it. They work like bicycle cables. There should be some clips you can position the cable with. So when you swing the levers in the cab, the heater control valve is not moving?
Thanks. My problem is the bulb for the AC switch/light. At around 0:55 you briefly mentioned about the switch but didn't say how to remove the switch. It must be very simple for you but I just can't remove the switch. Can you help ? Thanks.
I bought a E74 lighbulb from Amazon. I couldn't find it at the auto parts stores near me. The 74 bulb needed a lot of pressure to push into the socket. I knew it shouldn't that much pressure. I checked around and found out I needed a E74 bulb. It's a common size for many German and Japanese cars.
can you help ? my horn on my 86 Toyota pickup isn't working & isn't sure if its the button or the horn . what do you think ? i push the button and nothing but at the same time its the original horn from the factory & isn't sure how to remove the horn wiring plug could you show how to remove and change the horn if you still the the original.
@@chrisallen4366Thanks for checking up on me. I see why you need some help. As you know, it is hard to get to the horn. And that relay :) I am trying to figure out a way to test the horn, with out taking the truck apart. Still working on some ideas.
Concerning the horn not working the problem I have with the horn on my 88 Toyota pick up is at the steering wheel horn button not making contact there’s a little copper flag that pushes in and makes contact this little copper piece gets worn I gently bent it back and it works for a while but I have no permanent fix on my horn
This is SO helpful, thank you! I need to do the same repair on my 95 Tacoma -- in looking for parts, I see some are six-terminal and others are seven. Do you know which is the correct part for the 95? Thank you!
@@tubejim101 Oh sorry! the fan blower control switch that includes the new lightbulb.

Hey I got a question maybe you can help me with. I’ve got a 95 Tacoma, and the air blow to the feet instead of to the face vents, the switch doesn’t seem to direct the air to where it’s intended. What do you think it could be ?
If it is mechanically connected, most likely a clip came out. If it is electronic, then you will need to replace parts. An auto parts store, should be able to tell you if it is electronic or not.
Hey man, have you replaced the bulbs in the Rear Window Defrost Switch? I cant for the life of me find the size anywhere online or clear dimensions of bulbs that might fit. Ive tried 74s and T3s. Hoping that i dont have to take another shot in the dark. Thanks.
@@arelis1981 I only worked on a 82 Corolla, and that was in the 90's. If it is one of those slide levers, that leads to the engine bay, heater control valve. Then it is most likely the cable has popped out of one of the cable holders. If you luck it is in the engine bay. Most likely under the dash. If your unlucky, your going to have to take the dash apart. th-cam.com/video/b8UktHFr0TE/w-d-xo.html
My ac light won't turn on and ac won't work was just working while I drive ac blowing cold then the light on the ac just turned off and won't blow cold or turn on now changed the ac relay and still nothing any advice .
I need to replace this bulb, but I can't find a listing at the parts store under "climate control bul.b' What would I enter into a parts store browser to find this bulb?
The bulbs will be #74 or E74. I have a '97 4Runner and the #74 bulb was tough to push in. I looked around and found out about the E74 bulb size. It is definitely smaller than a 74 bulb. Also the plate covering the controls can be pulled off without needing to pull the entire top console part off. It took me less than 10 minutes to replace the light bulb. BTW the bulb I took out is the E74 type.
@@tubejim101 just curious, I am about to change out this ac panel light as well and I am having issues with my dome light. Would these two have something in common? Like fuse or something? Just want to make sure before I put a new bulb in and not have a working light in either location.
@@jonathanhodge9983 If I remember correctly, the power goes through the dome before going to the dash area. You can check your bulb with an ohm meter. Just make sure you pull it out of the circuit so you don't damage your meter. So get your dome light working, before messing with your dash area lights.
Does your dome light work? Get a test light, and check your fuse for power. If it is good, start probing with the test light to the light. Check if power is going through your dimmer switch, and such.

I am really happy that I found your video, I can actually see the climate control at night. Thanks again!!@@tubejim101
That was super helpful. Now I can do it myself with confidence.
Thank you! I was worried I was going to have to take the whole dash off.
The bulb goes out the back, and is part of the blower speed switch.
Thanks it helped me 💪
Helpful video. Thanks for sharing 👍
Hey thanks for showing on how to do that, i kinda wondered on how to do that in my 86 yota

The bulb for the A/C button is a T3 8mm. The button itself is tinted green, so for best results use either a green or white replacement LED.
