blue led reversal , couple questions

right I've completed returning my dash to stock, although its seems the bulb in the replacement slip control switch I bought is duff, will have to try and get another, also even though I placed a new bulb in ignition key light its not working!, although there was a blue led rammed in the socket which may have cause some damage I just pulled it out ;-), I've got a replacement bit of loom for that anyway. other than that looks good. I've noticed something though I want to ask because I've not seen stock dash lights in 7 years and cannot remember what they are suppose to look like. are the ac controls hi/low settings suppose to be orange or is there a dodgy/wrong bulb in there, also it seems the light in the heater adjust is duff lol.

Pretty sure it's a green light in the fan unit as well, but like you it's been a long time since I've seen a green dash.

thanks. yeah i cannot remember it being orange lol

can someone with a fully working stock green dash please post pics or theyre dash for me to compare . cheers

Everything in the heater control should be green. The led might be internal for the orange display.

Mines all green

EDIT: actually just checked mine and only the little dash indicating the setting you have it on lights up on mine, HI, LO and the fan symbol dont light at all lol

yeah it seems the bulbs just go over time and you dont really notice lol. cars get passed on no ones the wiser lol. anoter problem now, #€*@ sake!! just took the car out now and my bloody indicators/hazards not working at all now aaaaahhhhjh. i did pop a fuse when putting the dash back because the wires came off my aftermarket fog and i didint know which way round they went, i got it wrong-pop. 10amp fuse in footwell. does anyone know if the indicator fuse in deiver footwell aswell. if not that then dash out again because i must of disturbed some thing. nuts

il be bk on to toyota to see i can get the little bulbs that are in the trac switches/ac panel etc

Are you sure youve plugged the hazard switch back in on the top dash panel?

Its an easy one to miss and indicators wont work with that unplugged

Failing that the fuse is in the drivers fuse panel i believe

good question lol. im sure ;-) i can remember plugging the 2 white plugs back in, you got me thinking now. il check tomorrow now. thanks

anyway some more pics from yesterday before and after

after, still more work to do know, slip control light not working, need to see if I sort out the ac panel with new bulbs, ignition ring , I just bought a load of replacement bits really and hoped for the best, or well its better anyway, I think anyway. ordered a piece of yellow gel sheet now to see if I can cut it to fit over the blue hks gauge, blue and yellow makes green right ;-)

ha ha you were right mate. i forgot to plug the hazards back in. lol. so you think i can see where it is tho! nuts myst have dropped bk behind, cannot see it anywhere. or well. got new bulbs for the auto spoiler, slip control and ac control unit in order from mr T. £59 for 9 bulbs!!!

good question lol. im sure ;-) i can remember plugging the 2 white plugs back in, you got me thinking now. il check tomorrow now. thanks

well after more money and time spent, all done the buttons in my switches were brown through age and heat by the looks of it. 9 bulbs from Toyota £59 [sHOCK][/sHOCK]

only thing that needs doing is my drivers door ring light with it being blue and all, well actually the reason why my ignition ring light was not working is because it had a resistor wired into the wire!

lucky I bought the whole bit of the loom off keron. I replaced the loom and refitting a brand new stock bulb, and by the looks of it because they run on the same circuit/loom with the resistor now being taken out it popped my blue led in the door ring lol. or well well happy with the results now,
