Just bought a GT4 1993 celica and have some major issues. I've bought it as seen so really my own fault.

The mileage counter and odometer aren't working!!!!!! No idea what to do!!

Can't get the radio to work and the ariel doesn't move either.

Also there's a light on my dashboard with a top view of the car and some lines coming out the bak which is on???

Can anyone help this blind idiot?!! Can't believe what I've let myself in for!!!

Thanks guys

rear light not working, either brake or side light. poor connection etc. try a new bulb in or clean up the ones fitted.

The mileage counter and odometer aren't working!!!!!! almost certain this is controlled by a digital sender in gearbox and not a cable like other cars , its either dirty or knackered.

ariel pops up when radio comes on . most likely just a fuse issue , get radio on and ariel should work .

Don't go over 70mph unless on a track :rolleyes:

Yes and I am in no way endorsing speeding! But I did it for a split second without realising until she started shaking!!! This was when i first picked her up and did a 180 mile journey home at 10pm at night. She might not get on a motorway again. But this is a real worry, gt4 turbo shouldn't bat an eyelid at that speed, i'm just worried i have a serious problem without realising it.

Could just be that your wheels need balancing.
