trunk release cable?

dannydavi · 05-30-2007, 07:21 PM

well heres an update on how i fixed it cause i realized i never told... first i went to toyota and asked for the cable... it was $50+ so i said NVM, i then went to pick and pull and pulled one and shoved it down my pants... therefore only being $2..shhh dont tell anyone.. then i got home and took out all neccesary pieces to reach the cable completely, took out the old one and compared to the one i jacked.... they were the same size

which sucks cause i thought i needed a shorter one. Well it turns out i just needed to reroute the cable to take a longer course to the back hatch, and make sure that the end near the driver seat was wrapped under the lever which gave it a big leverage/pull. then tested and now my hatch works... sucky thing is now that i think while i was fiddling around down there i think i knocked the gas one loose, cause now i have to manually open my tank lid

so i'll fix that soon enough.

That gas cable went bad because of your bad KARMA.

The tenet of karma is essentially "if you do good things, good things will happen to you — if you do bad things, bad things will happen to you,"
