In many cases only the agent can fix(may need a code) however some sparkies can do a fix sometimes if its because the wiring under the seats that has come adrift.

Take it to a sparky. Cheaper than the dealer normally

i wouldnt say (in many cases) most intelligent mechanics or sparkies with the right testing equipment should be able to carry dealership diagnostics and repairs

it needs a new clockspring. sorry bud hope the price has come down a bit
most likely to be the clock spring but still i'D check under the seat for unplugged wires first--worth a looksee

Clock springs for these have definitely come down in price.They were $1200 a couple of years ago and are down to around $500 now.They are a common problem with these and are generally only available as genuine parts.Thought I saw a new one listed on this site recently.
Just checked.They have come down heaps.Auction #483768873

I thought Toyotas were reliable and cheap to run and own ! In my opinion most of them need a JAZZ up.

All built in to the final $$380 as it's only 10min to fix but min labour charge is 0.3hr so the rest is just that.

Thought I'd let people know that I contacted the 2 toyota dealers in town to get a quote to do the clock spring. As was mentioned on here one of them said about $400 and the other said it was going to be $800 job but before I had the chance to tell him where to go he said that Toyota might come to the party and do it for free. He rang me the next day to say bring it in whenever and it would be done for free. Job done yesterday- no charge
