illl assume its not dim, at night, a key check, in all cases like this. the lamp is bad. (used lamps can have a shorted base so only NEW lamps work best) the socket is bad. (corroded the wires are cut by trailer hitch goons, (wire hackers (look and see) its not the fuse or the switch, the problem from the harness at left rear of right rear. the signal harness usually feeds left then right side. so the wire from there to there can in fact fail, or be collision damage or trailer hitch hacked.. right there.

On the bottom main drive gear there is a notch in the edge of the gear that lines up with the dot. the top gear has a hole in it that lines up with the mark on top. You can watch this video on youtube it may help. Replace Timing Belt https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqYJHKQ51AU

There should be a Diadnostic Plug box located just behind the air filter flip the lid open. If it looks like the one in this link (on page 2) http://buy1.snapon.com/products/diagnostics/downloads/manuals/AsianImportVCS%28EAZ0025B02CRevA%29/10%20GeoTesting.pdf connect the E1 and Te1 with a piece of wire or paperclip turn the key to ON position and the Check Engine light will flash the codes.

If you understand what is going on under your hood.. the wires being spliced May not be your problem. Check that they are not bare if they are then fix it. The problem may be a dirty intake due to the engine overloading all the time. When it's cold it runs good since that's what the choke does. Take your air filter off and follow the tubing to the aluminum intake. Clean that out very good with a rag full of carburetor cleaner.

NO SUCH THING. WHY not post symptoms, no guessing. do tests. are you up for testing, or guessing. ???

If installed correctly did you bleed the brakes properly if you have replaced all these parts and I am assuming that if you went through all this you also replaced the rear cylinders too and you see no fluid under the car after stepping on the brakes it may be only air in your lines bleed them and see if that fixes them

This may be of some help. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyKB-sKtJwo

in one of 2 fuse boxes one in engine bay one in cab , dash, did you look under dash? see that there. and fuse marked RADIO or RAD. ????

great start of a great question but i cant understand it. sure my knuckles drag too low..... my guess is you left out spray pattern? ok lets google that. https://www.google.com/webhp?gws_rd=ssl#q=injector+spray+patterns easy huh?

im looking all a see here, is Add your answer, i must be blind. why not post a photo, any kid in house can do this,.... i promise.

all basics.... longest to shortest order. just look at lines you can see where they go in 5min. rusted or leaking or crushed lines are bad. super basics. damaged, no , only the bleed valves were touched and yes they do break, and for sure in salt belt. (wiki that) its needs bleeding, if the MC and slaves (all parts) dont leak there is air in the system. if all air is out (i use pressure bleeding) but if all out, then the MC is bad. spongy is always air , bleed again, repeat. get a book on brakes, see how to do bleeding 6 ways. some ways are better, or like me I use 3 ways. keep in mind , air wants to float up, and tell me which way are you using... 2man way? opposite of the float rule? sure. its classic way and can be very hard.

the Aternator "SYSTEM" can fail for these reasons. skipping bad alterntor..... 1: bad wiring. 2: bad charge lamp (no, not yours) 3: bad connectors , really same as #1 4: alternator not grounded. 5: battery cables bad. (the 4 corroded ends) or the ground wire to the top starter bolt, not there, or loose. 6: the fuse blew in the front right fender fuse box. (huge fuse,pulls out) its not this fuse.... 7: belt loose. 8: engine RPM way below 800, 750rpm is spec, mininum. the alternator regulators on all cars , can in fact shut itself down. this confuses many car fixers. It will shut down, if. over voltatge if over current. or sees the battery as being, bad, (high internal resistance or OMG not connected. its really, mostly a 1995 toyota corolla. facts. the regulator is inside the alternator; there are 3 fuses, that can kill it. IGN, not this one, because that kills spark too., GAUGE, not this as that kills the charge lamp. ALT-S fuse, BINGO?> the 100amp fuse is not blown or many things on this car die. to find this cause, takes one tool, a voltmeter. doing simple tests.

read toyota nation its there. http://www.fixkick.com/PRIZM.html it must be timed in the correct way its also covered in the FSM and alldata.com your choice.
