How do i re-set timing for Landcruiser Prado 1KZ engine. I changed the timing belt but the dash board indicator (T-Belt) is still on. How can i get this to come off and know that timing has been properly set.

You have to pull the instrument cluster out of your vehicle. At the back of the cluster there are 2 screws that are close together, change the screws around. They are the only 2 screws together. Your timing is set by lining up the mark on the injection pump sprocket to the mark on the engine body. Same with the camshaft sprocket, the mark is at the top, and then aligning your two line marks on the timing belt (Toyota Belt) to these marks. Also I would suggest replacing your pulley. The Tensioner Pulley bolt should be torqued to 35 Nm. You need a vice with soft jaws to tension the tensioner and aligning the holes with a bit of coathanger wire. When you re install your tensioner you then pull out the wire releasing the tensioner. The tensioner bolts should be torqued to 12 - 13 Nm. Hope that helps you. PS - When you are removing your interior mouldings be careful as they are expensive to replace. When you remove your screws and bolts there are a number of clip systems that hold some of the mouldings in place.

I have a 2000 model Prado with a digital speedometer counter. the T-Belt light has come on at 120,000 Kms and i have just changed the timing belt. I need to know how to reset the warning light myself if...

i have exactly the same model and same problem at 100,000 km however i read the forum advice but my one neither has the grommet on the front neither a screw to re-locate to reset so the only way was to remove the bulb instead
