I had the same problem a few times after I changed mine. Its just the solder points are weak. Just add some solder to them mofos

hey AnZ17N can you get a full shot of the stereo? and as ||)) (o) ||\|| said, its most likely a weak solder point.

Any chance of a more detailed walk through on how to take the faceplate off the LB, or is basically the same as the sedan version?

Ok guys, ready for a total Yaris noob?

I'm a Volkswagen superfreak... But my girlfriend has a 2008 Yaris sedan... 5spd.

I read through this whole DIY, and its definitly something I want to do with her car to make the interior a bit more eye friendly lol.

Questions.

Is this DIY the same for her car? I heard something about sedans/liftbacks(?) are different?

I want the radio LCD screen, radio buttons, and HVAC controls to all be the same color (I wanna do white LED's). Does this require additional steps that aren't shown in this DIY?

How long did this take, approximately?


Thanks in advance! Sorry for the noobness and misunderstanding of your Yaris terms lol


PS. Shes got a different center console than most we've seen in other Yaris's... Instead of the vertical three selectors for the HVAC, its in an upside down triangle formation... Dunno if this makes a difference or not. Just thought i'd add it in.

Wow, I need to do this on my wife's car.. Have the skills and all, being in the electronics industry... That sick green look has to go...

Question: We have an '11 4-door sedan with the power doors/windows package (w/o cruise-control, which I'll be adding, having seen that other DIY...) I noticed that the electric mirror adjustment buttons and the door panel buttons don't have any illumination at all. Has anyone taken these apart to see if a LED could fit behind these buttons/switches? I'd have to route a wire to them, I know, but are these button faces translucent to begin with (so a LED glued/installed behind will shine through?)

Thanks!

I have one of the power mirror switches sitting on my desk, so I just popped it apart to check. The button faces are completely opaque (the white is silkscreened on top). If it was translucent, there would be enough space under the arrow pad for LEDs, but not under the L/R switch.

You'd have to buy a radio from ebay, junkyard, etc. and harvest the board.
