Toyota Prado 90s multi meter display...repair?

KG’s multi display meter after self-repair. It is doable!
The Toyota Prado 90s multi meter display is obsolete today, considering we now have new gadgets like handheld GPS and smart phones. Nevertheless, the console stares at you each time you sit in the car and it is something that will bug you eventually. The easiest solution to this is either to have it replaced or permanently removed. The latter is out of the question to most Prado enthusiasts. Hence, you either get it replaced with a new or used unit. OR, you can always try to fix it.

Mr ZZ had his Prado aircond motor dead recently. Driving in Malaysia and not having the aircond working can be a horrible experience especially if you are stuck in a traffic jam. The heat inside the car can become very unbearable and winding down the windows won’t do much to help either.

Note: This is article is to just to share Mr ZZ’s personal experience with regards to his failed AC fan of his Toyota Prado 90 series. This is not a professional advice.
