A friend had a MIG welder so we welded a few spots of the interior side of the part to the sheet metal. That definitely didn't seem like it was enough, so I added 3 pop rivets (2 bottom, 1 top)....

This is very easy to do on this car. I managed to open the petcock from the top of the engine compartment with a limited amount of force and almost without scratching my arm. Didn't have to lift the...

Another picture from the front of the car where the little spout can be seen. I've verified that the petcock is right above it so it has to be the radiator drain.
I hope I can undo the petcock by...

I'm pretty sure the mount is next to it, and it is a screw. This is a little pipe, there's a hole in the center, so it has to be for draining something. AC water or radiator I don't know. :)

Coolant change on 2007 D4D Yaris - want to be sure I don't mess up

Hi,
I've consulted earlier threads on coolant change.
My Yaris (NLP90L-CHMGXW) has 190 000km and the coolant was never changed. I noticed it was below the "LOW" level a few days back, although...

It's a buck module, not a linear power supply, you can adjust it without a load.

Electrically it will work. Thermally I'm not so sure. LM317 is a linear regulator so in order to deliver 300mA@1.5V it will draw 300mA@12V and dissipate the difference, which is 3.1W.

I do not know why my repair failed. I would assume the transistors are getting hot too, which makes me wonder if maybe the drive circuit is to blame. I wouldn't be able to fix that.

I solved the problem.
Looks like I was right, these are 2SB799 PNP transistors. I couldn't source them so I bought an equivalent BCX53 reference. I think it even has a somewhat higher nominal...

Might it be 2SB799 transistors? The marking ("MK") is consistent with that.
