TheBush Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 So, for my senior culminating project here in Washington state, I decided to do like a restoration on my EA82T. I did headgaskets, turbo gaskets, intake gaskets, exhaust gaskets, etc. Well, its all starting to come together....what a pain in the rump roast by the way, I did it all while the block was still in the car.... Anyways, I had a problem before. The tail lights wouldn't go off. They had a mind of their own, they would turn on/off and stuff without the car being on. I would have to unhook the battery everywhere I went. Any ideas on a fix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboobaroo Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 check the switch on top of the steering column, sounds like you bumped it. Easy fix:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mudduck Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 Yes that switch effects the tail lights. It turns them on, along with the parklights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had this happen to a Toyota I owned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloyale Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 check the switch on top of the steering column, sounds like you bumped it. Easy fix:cool: No, 86 does not have that switch. 85,86 there was only the hazard switch up there. He may have something else going on. Probably the brake light switch. It may just need adjusted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
