Introduction
This document provides guidance on identifying and potentially replacing a faulty gear position sensor in a 90 series Toyota Land Cruiser Prado with an automatic transmission. A faulty sensor can cause incorrect indicator lights on the dash and may result in reverse lights not functioning.
Problem
Incorrect gear indicator lights illuminate on the dashboard when shifting gears. Reverse lights may not activate when the vehicle is in reverse. The root cause is suspected to be a faulty gear position sensor.
Solution
- Identify the correct part number. Resources such as online parts databases (e.g., japan-parts.eu) can be used to determine the correct part number for your specific vehicle. Using the VIN is critical for identifying the correct part.
- Source a replacement sensor. Once the part number is known, a replacement sensor can be sourced from various auto parts retailers or online vendors.
