I haven't seen this before on my 88 Truck - 22RE engine, but this evening as
I started my truck both lights came on. I am sure this is some code and I've
searched the net but can't find what it means. My dealership is already
closed so I can't call them until tomorrow - hoping to get an answer on the
NG. Someone out there must know what this means...Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance for the replys!!
Tim

btw, whats with all the spam on this NG?? Geeeezzzzzz........

I just had the same problem with my '90 4runner v6. Problem was the
alternator not charging, all that I did was replace the brushes at the cost
of $5 Cdn. HTH :-O

The carbon brushes in the alternator are bad.

For alternator repair:

Alternator brushes w/holder:

Toyota # 27370-35060

Alternator brushes only(which require soldering):

Toyota # 27371-63020
Honda # 31144-PD1-004=$9.72
Nippondenso # 021660-0390
Niehoff # WA571
Borg Warner # X580
Standard # JX-116
Beck_Arnley # 178-1669
Ace Electric # DA-61(brushes),S-5367 (brush holder)

About half of the auto electric shops in your local yellow pages sells
carbon alternator brushes and copper solenoid starter contacts for
about $5/pair,usually the carbon brushes in the alternators last
140-170 000 miles.
Two starter repair sites:

http://www.off-road.com/4x4web/toyota/tech/starter/ -
http://4crawler.cruiserpages.com/4x4.../Starter.shtml
http://www.4x4wire.com/toyota/maintenance/starter
http://www.barneymc.com/toy_root/techneek/top_neek.htm

Starter contacts only:

Toyota # 28226-70040
Wilson's Electric # 45-29-652

Starter contact kit (battery side):
# 28226-72080(year:8808-9108)
# 28226-16130(year:9108-9308)
# 28226-55050(year:9308-9511)

Starter contact kit (motor side if needed):

# 28226-72010(year:8808-9511)
# 28226-74070(year:9108-9511)

Whether your starter uses two rectangular types or one rectangular and
one crescent you can substitute with two squares or one square and one
crescent so any of the above part #'s for those kits will be the right
ones,or about half of the auto electric shops in your local yellow
pages would sell aftermarket contacts for only $5 each or the pair.

Any public library in your area would have the Factory service
manual,Haynes,Chiltons,Mitchells and Toyota repair books.
There is also free AutoZone service manuals at:

Finally there is a free aftermarket 1995 4-Runner (22R-E and 3VZE)
service manual at:

Oh yes, the dreaded alternator combo. Repair is pretty simple and
most any parts place will have the brushes for a few bucks. I suggest
having a small C- clamp for holding the brush in place as it is
soldered (will be obvious once alternator back is taken off), and
don't cut the lead short until it has been soldered in place.

Under no circumstances should you trade in your quality alternator for
a piece of junk that will likely fail in a couple of years.

And when they say you need to drain the radiator to do the repair, it
will make sense in the end. ;-)
