What Engine?

possibly need re-gasing

Sorry we don't have that, you could try a company called Crutchfield

Most likely a bad headlamp switch, UNLESS you have a remote starter hooked up. Corollas with a body computer really do not like remote starters, they cause really bizaare things to happen.

If the window just stops moving could mean the motor is bad. If the window looks and the motor sounds like it is struggling to move the window, would mean the cables inside of the door are off track or binding.

The evap system on a Toyota is difficult to repair yourself. It's probably a clogged canister, but I'd bring it to a reputable mechanic to do a smoke test on it.

You should have a dimmer switch on dash. Needs to be replaced

change the radio

You need to replace the latch spring.Place a very small screw driver on the side of the box latch to open

Does it sound like a valve or piston, or something loose on the exhaust pipe ?

check engine light on or flashing?

Check these two fuses. Fuse number 31 in fuse box location 4, if cigarette lighter, radio and clock. Else fuse number 5 in fuse box location 2, if only radio and clock and not cigarette lighter.

While holding the AM button, adjust the time by pushing the NUMBER BUTTONS 1-2.
Hour adjustment......NUMBER BUTTON 1 Minute adjustment...NUMBER BUTTON 2
There you go :)

Plugs come pregapped. I check them with a gauge anyway to make sure they are all close.

May not be any fuse and if it was other things would not work either. It is most likely the sitch that controls the running and dash board lights.

Try turning off the ac and then try to start the car. If it starts then you have too much freon in the system. If not you may have plugged in to the fuel rail.

It may be two things. If it makes a loud clicking sound when you turn the ignition key then your starter is gone. If not, your battery is going. Try boosting the battery with cables. Let it run & take it to auto service to check battery power.
