    Re: 1992 Toyota Truck Speedometer

    The zener and transistor are in oddball packages I think, the transistor low height stubby to clear the odometer wheels and the zener is some Japanese JEITA package.
    A replacement 9.1V zener for ZD2 could be around 200mW-500mW like 1SMA5924BT3G or BZT52-C9V1 or MMSZ5239 would work.
    edit: the power transistor is 2SD2033 (insulated TO-126 ECB pinout).
    I don't like this PCB trace, it looks cut. Check them with a multimeter or tin them with solder.

    First I would fix the 9.1V power problem. The hot trace or part doesn't make sense, stop running it as the IC is getting overvoltaged - it likes 9V coming in, not 11V or 14V.
    I would check for breaks in the PC board traces. Shine a light on the front side and see if you need to add solder to the cleaned up traces to fix some slices or cuts.
    The fractured solder joints or "ghost rings" as someone calls them, occur at through-hole part pins and for the hassle I touch up all of those on automotive boards. See sample pics to learn what they look like.

        Thought you guys might like a bit of resolution to this:

        Thank you for all the help!
        I resoldered the components and replaced the zener. That hot trace cooled off and the correct voltage showed up on pin 16 of the IC. But made no difference to the accuracy of the speedometer.

        The final solution was to replace the IC (TB9213) with a "new" 30 year old component.

        Again. Thanks for the help. Learned quite a lot.

          Component tester which one is worth the money from it capability to test and identify
          by sam_sam_sam
          I am thinking of buying a component tester but I want to get the most out of the device for the money that I am going to spend

          Any idea but I would prefer actual use of the device it good points and it short comings be completely truthful about the review of the device

          There are so many versions of this type of device and I do not have enough information to make a good decision at this point

          When I bought my battery testing machine I had some information to go by because of electrical experience with auto electrical experience in this field job wise (...

          03 Toyota RAV4 ECU transmission problems / reset
          by CapLeaker
          I've got here an ECU 89661-42840 from an 03 Toyota RAV4. Got the usual transmission problem that is ECU related. Symptoms are not shifting as it supposed to, no shift etc. Turn the car off, wait a minute and back on and it will work again for a bit. I think she's in limp mode here or something.

          Anyway... There are tons of those RAV4 that have this problem. My problem with it is, that it's a right steering import vehicle and the dealer can't read the ECU.

          I went all over the ECU resoldering a whole stack of resistors, no problem. BUT I am stuck on resetting the transmission...

          Why does my truck have a microphone in it?
          by SluggerB
          So I bought an 04 Ford Ranger, and it looks like the former owner made some electronic mods. I want to get rid of them and make this thing stock, but I'm not sure what I am looking at. I am hoping there is an overlap between computer electronics and truck mod electronic nerds here

          Here is the microphone



          It clips onto the visor, and has a wire that is (poorly) run behind the plastic cover over the corner pillar. That wire runs to below the steering wheel, and connects to this thing. Some sort of plug? The thin wire from the microphone is running to it,...

          Old Cap Series ID in Toyota ECU
          by dennisxp77
          Hi! I'm replacing the caps in the ECU for a 2001 Toyota Land Cruiser Prado.
          Can anyone recommend a new series to use?

          It has now three types of caps:

          Nichicon PF(M) series
          Panasonic GE series
          Panasonic HFE series

          Is there an official document? Where can I see it?
          I am afraid of anxiety and doubt.
          This is a responsible subject where there is no room for error.
          I really need your help. Thanks!...
