Need a Spot
hey long story short i bought a 88 4runner and the blinkers and hazards dont work. the kid told me that its the flasher switch. and i grabed one from a junkyard. and now the hazards work but the blinkers dont.. is it a bad switch? or do you have to take it from a 4wd truck... the one i got is from a 2wd around the same year... any help would be great!

Roll Me Over
The switches are the same for either 2wd or 4wd, and as long as t was from the same generation rig you should be fine.

Have you checked the FSM(at the top of the forum) for tips/hints, the '85 FSM should work for the '88.

You could still have other issues with the blinker switch in the steering column, I think the flasher is on its own system.


More than tread lightly. Leave it like you were never there, nor anyone else.

There is an 88 FSM here
Scroll down till you see your year vehicle. Takes a few to download, but worth every second. You need Adobe to view the pdf file. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

This stuff is awesome on muffler bearings, too, but I can't find a flexible funnel long enough to reach them. I've heard of people drilling a hole through the floor pan over the converter to make it easier, but I'm not willing to go that far. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />
