1992 Camry Power Window Question

Aug 22, 2006 5 Replies

My drivers side switch for the drivers window is gone. I thought it was the motor/regulator and stupidly purchased one and installed it. Bummer, window still won't go up. so I jump the connector near the motor with battery power and the window goes up and down smoothly. Real bummer since I destroyed the old regulator when it pissed me off coming out. (I was sure it was bad so crunch... doh! when will I learn?)



I then removed the switch cluster from the panel and jumped all of the connections from my manual and sure enough there is no continuity between pins 6 & 7 when the switch is in the "up" position.



The manual is a bit fuzzy is its diagram as it says for this function... ____________ | | 7 | | 6 | and | | | 8 | ____________ UP o---o



So I tried the continuity between 6 and 7, 6 and 8, 6 and 7/8... no continuity for any.



Any way, my question is, can I buy the single window switch for the driver's window or an I screwed into buying a Toyota famous $1,000 integrated super switch block?



I love my wagon but have to consider that it is a 92 with 450,000 kms so I won't be spending a weeks pay for a single faulty switch for it.

You have to buy the complete master switch assembly around $400 their are no individual parts available

Try going to Radio Shack and buy a HD 12 volt toggle switch and rewire to suit your needs, it will look like hell but should be functional. good luck

Either get a switch from a junk yard or EBAY
