T3 Lighting

[Red Yaris 54]

Can anyone tell me if the electric window switches should be illuminated when the lights are on and should the cigarette lighter/12 power supply be illuminated.

Also should the brake lights work without the ignition on? (coz mine do)

All these questions.....just needing answers to help me get better aquainted with my T3 :)

yes to all,ut the ciggarette lighter?

I never noticed that, it only lights up if you actually plug it in?

[Blue84]

Yes my electric window switches light up, and also the brake lights too. I'm not a smoker so have never used my cig lighter - will have a look later on tho when it gets dark for ya mate.

Thanks for all of the replies.

I also am not a smoker, but find the cig lighter socket useful as a 12volt power supply for mobile charger/ sat nav etc.

Hiya,

I went out to my T3 earlier on and had a look @ the cig lighter and no it doesnt light up at all for me as far as I could see..it wasnt properly dark tho it was dusk perhaps that didnt help!

Electric Window Switches - Well no, mine switches on when the ignition is on

Cigarette Lighter - mine doesnt have a light, I have even hidden mine, theres a push start button there instead, but now i need it for my camera detector and TFT touch screen. where can I get a cheap power splitter from?

Brake lights - Yes

Why would the brake lights work without the ignition? That’s a new one on me!

The ‘Auto’ lights up on the electric window switch.

Ref the cigarette lighter I will have to check.

Being towed. Failure while you're still on the road.

wouldnt you still have the ignition on to make the power steering work while being towed?

Power steering doesn't work without a running engine.
