My 2000 Toyota Solara radio has started to lose a strong signal.

Sometimes the radio works fine, but increasingly I cannot receive a clear sound signal on any FM or AM band. This is true for ALL BUT ONE of my FM presets. FM 95.9 plays just fine. Also, if I use the SCAN function to find a strong station signal, it just scans forever and never locks on to any station. The next day it may work fine again.

Check mounting surfaces at antenna. Corrosion or looseness and the antenna loses its ground to the body.

SOURCE: Radio doesnt work in FM mode

Before you replace it, remove it from the dash and check to see if the antenna is hooked up to it. Sometimes it can come loose and that's your problem. It's a thick black cable with a single prong out of it. It connects directly into the stereo. Good luck!

My 2006 Toyota Solara convertible radio volume goes in and out, what can I do

Sit in back seat passenger side. Remove panel which is on top which is below rear window, same panel where seat belt goes into panel at top. You will need to remove #2 Phillips screws which hold panel in place. Screws are hiding behind seat belt front cover where belt goes down in panel, under cup holder which allows arm rest cover to lift off and one more right on left side of head rest in corner. Remove panel. You will see switch which is in vertical position. If for any reason you want to by-pass switch, just unplug switch. Radio will still work in standard mode. The amp sound will not increase in performance when top is down and sound will not be as sharp.

99 Solara Radio Light not functioning

Check your fuse, sometimes integrated into other electrical parts of the vehicle. Possibly interior light fuse; cigarette lighter fuse; radio fuse?

2000 toyota solara. Drivers electric window won't raise sometimes

Door scraper rubbers stiff tripping the motors protective circuit (anti-crush, to stop chopping off fingers, heads etc)

Try cleaning the glass inside and out with household window clear or a White spirit etc then spray silicone spray on a rag, wipe over the glass then try the window operation.

2000 solara 4 cyl. many electricals do not work, but car starts!

You blew your ALT 100A fusible link behind the battery in your fuse box.
It is a large white/clear fuse-type square with a clear top. YOu should be able to see the 'fuse' through the clear top has blown.

The fusible link is bolted from the bottom. so you will need to lift the fuse box and pop the lower cover off enough to access the screws holding it on.

The ALT 100A link provides power to all of the items you listed that are inoperative, but the car will run fine without it :)
