How can I replace the left front fog light unit from a toyota prius from 2009. I cann't find a maintenance manual for this model and year.

  • Anonymous Jul 10, 2011

    The information which you send to menis not enough the two PDF files which you send is not sufficient to do the job.
    Changing this light unit cost a toyota mechanic 1 hour and then the car is on the bridge.
    What you send is not the complete solution.
    I know you have to take a lot of parts in the front, the question is then which parts you have to loose and which screws or bolts so that you don't loose to much.

    Regards

Thanks for choosing FixYa. Remove the fog light grille panels. There are two clips on top and two on bottom that secure the panels to the bumper. (No screws) I used a small screwdriver wrapped with tape to find and release the clips. Then the panels pull out forward.

There is a small plastic clip that secures the fog light adjustment screw to the bumper. (This is a hollow plastic clip which surrounds the head of the adjustment screw). You can feel the clip just below / above (don't remember but it's the only one there) and to the side of the light socket. If you compress the sides of that clip with pliers, you can then pull the fog light assembly forward. You will notice that something else catches the assembly at this point. Look on the (I believe left) side of the fog light housing and you will find a small piece of the bumper plastic which interferes with the assembly. If you use a small screwdriver again, you can push that plastic out of the way. Now the assembly will pull out. To reinstall, simply push the fog light assembly back into the bumper and reinstall the light bulb.

Why did my 2006 prius shut down while I was driving it

You should check to see how many "bars" of fuel you have left. A common issue with these is that the fuel sending unit goes bad, and will show you 1, 2, or 3 bars while the car has no gas. You may have run out of fuel. Even if you put new fuel in, some Prius models need to be reset by a Toyota dealer in order to make it driveable again. In some Prius models, the whole fuel tank would need replaced as the sending unit and tank is all one whole assembly. Some allow you to just purchase a new sending unit. You do also have a chance just paying a dealer for the diagnostic and having them reset the system for you. You will just have to remember to not let your "bars" get down to 2 or 3 bars. Hope this helps.

Where is the fog light switch located on prius 08

I'm assuming that you have the factory fog lights on a NHW20 (2004-2009) Prius. In the US 2004 Owner's Manual, it is listed in Section 2-4, "Operation of Instruments and Controls,""Lights, Wipers and Defogger,""Front Fog Lights,"

Broken front fog light

There is a recall on headlights for 2005 MINIS, but I also know that the front fog light issue is prevalent, so DOT (888) 327-4236 SHOULD BE NOTIFIED AND MINI USA at: 1 866-MINI USA. Are you asking how to replace the fog light? There are also manuals available for each car with detailed guides on maintenance so you can learn your own vehicle and do it yourself, or safeguard yourself from being overcharged by mechanics. I hope this helps somewhat for you! Look here. A few people have had this issue and also have it relate to further issues. They are working towards a recall.

Some scum has robed the emblem off the front of my toyota prius 59 plate i was just wandering how much a replacement was

As you mention a 59 plate I presume you're UK based.

With respect, you'll get a far quicker and definitely accurate answer if you just phone your local Toyota dealer tomorrow morning.

    Will a Prius 2006 rear tail light assembly work in a Prius 2005? They look identical.

    2005 was the last year of that Prius design. 2006 started a new design. 2006-2009 use the same tail light.
