Light came on and other questions
 
i have serveral questions first one is that it was raining today and a light came on the dash that has a car and lines that are comin out of the rear i have no idea what this is.. second my EGR valve is definatly busted it melted the modulator valve so yeah however would this cause my turbo not to work because it is a vacuum system and turbo runs off vacuum? i knoe the turbo is ok because my friend who owned the car b4 me rebuilt it and the problem persists. thank you for any help you guys can supply!

well the only light i can think of that has a picture of a car is the tail light failure sensor thingy. turn on your lights and make shur the brake lights are working, signals and all, and then try it with the brakes applied. if its like mine your tail light bolts are tightened all the way and water is getting in there and setting off the sensor. it will turn off in a couple of days at the most.

or you might have a special edition supra that has a warning light that says your car is about to blow up :) naw thats your tail lights dont worry about it.

as for the other things i have no clue.

Mine went on today, also. It is a warning light that tells you that a bulb out. My bulb was blown, because today we had a lot of rain, and my tail end was parked so that a lot of water blew into the fixture and got on the bulb.

Warning light came on while sitting at a long red light with the brake lights on, and bulb got hot, and popped a little hole in it.

The seal on the tail light lenses has been discussed several times over the past 3 years, because it is a known problem.

You can do a search and find some threads on how to fix the leaking problem.

Happened again
 
Well, the warning light came on tonight, after a rain storm. Guess I'll replace the bulb tomorrow, then order those $35 gaskets and replace them next week.

I've owned this car for 5 yrs, and plan on keeping it forever. So the $$$ spent today will be OK.
