    Can you believe Toyota dealership service advisor told me this wasn’t fixable and I needed a complete new rear seat for $1800 plus install. Thank you so much for this video!!! Truly appreciate you

      Of course I can believe it. Every single dealer, regardless of the brand, is a thief.

      You own a Toyota. They a literally designed to be easily repaired by the owner. Quit taking it to the dealer. They are the Japanese equivalent of the Volkswagen Bug.

    I plan to try this tonight. Local Toyota thieves offered to fix it, after waiting four hours for a diagnosis, for only $2100.

    Thank you for this video and the link for the part. The directions were clear and easy to follow, and I was able to fix my broken seat for $133. I don't even want to know what the dealership would have charged me.

    I’ve seen a crap-ton of “how to” videos in my life. And with this pain staking experience, I can say without a doubt that the man who filmed, edited, narrated the video should be financed by the government and paid handsomely to make more great videos like this and anyone who wants to make “how to” videos must take his college level course and get his certification on the subject by passing both theory and how to video making labs.

    Fantastic! Well done video, and worked for me on first go. Looks like this happens commonly, so I'd say it's a design flaw.

  • @airbayside

    Thank you! Very well done simple explanation. I am sure the dealership would charge $400.

    BEFORE YOU DO THIS, KEEP THIS IN MIND: When you release the left cable connected to the headrest (0:59), the headrest will remain folded down (not snapped up) to make the seat unusable for passengers. One temporary solution is to use some kind of strap (or use the third-row middle passenger seat belt shoulder strap) to pull and secure the headrest in an upright position to make the seat usable for passengers.

    This is so helpful, thank you very much! Quick question for anyone out there, does anyone know what type of screw us used to fasten the handle to the seat? I accidentally stripped one and I can't seem to find it anywhere.

    This worked perfectly. But now, my right rear seat handle is broken too, and this time, both plastic pieces (0:50) holding both wires in place are broken. :-(
    Anyhow, I found a plastic zip tie that was inserted and used to help secure the two cables (also visible in your video) - maybe to prevent them from slipping into and getting lost inside the seat panel/crevice? I’m thinking that maybe I can place the zip tie directly over and seated snuggly into the groove of the white plastic knobs (see image of knob at 1:39) and then tighten the zip tie to hold the cable securely in place. I mighty have to try different zip ties with that are thinner or thicker to make sure the tie seats snuggly into the pin’s groove. I’ll give it a try to see if it works!
    Any other ideas on how to fix the handle with both plastic pieces broken?

  • @mikeandsuzannegeorgiamount6036

    I tried doing this. When I tried to route the right wire underneath the brace, I lost it somewhere in the sear cavity, and could not fish it out. Just be careful when you reroute this wire that you don't loose like I did

      Did u ever find missing cable of one side?

    • @gandhijnl
      @gandhijnl Před 2 lety

      Cuz when i open the handle, only one side wire attached to handle, never seen Second side wire...

    • @mikeandsuzannegeorgiamount6036
      @mikeandsuzannegeorgiamount6036 Před 2 lety

      I fished around with a coat hanger wire and pulled up a wire, but could not easily pull up the loose end. So, I thought I didn't have the correct one, so, I decided not to continue, thinking I might do damage somehow, and have a worst situation. Bottom line, I let my mechanic fix it. Discounting the price of the part, he charged me about $80. Eventually, I was going to get it properly fixed, so I was ok with that. Hope this helps.

      Open the back panel to retrieve and put the cable back in place. To open the back panel, see video czcams.com/video/7l65kGH-Y30/video.html
