How to fix a back left turn signal?
Wild guess, in the process of fixing the tail light, you disturbed the signal connections. Go back through your work carefully, see if something is loose or bad connection.
What is a whistling noise behind the dashboard?
Many controls are activated by a vacuum line from the engine. My wild guess there is a slit or bad connection somewhere on the way to the control system. Good ears or "hearing horn" should help you find the sound source.
2004 4Runner Rear Wiper and Defroster won't work
I just had the same problem. I have an '04 4Runner and my rear wiper, fluid wash, and defrost stopped working after it was recently serviced. If you had the battery cables disconnected recently here is the solution...Start the engine and lower the rear tailgate window all the way... close the rear window and then turn the engine off. Restart the engine and the wiper,wash, and defrost. should work again. It has something to do with the computer which needs to be rebooted. Good luck.

When put in gear the engine dies?
-Is the engine running fine...? If so possibly the idle is too low.

Just got a new battery 2 months ago, now my battery light is on an the battery died.
Just had a similar issue with my 09 CVPI.
Charge the battery, start the car.
Car starts and is running, good.
Now disconnect the ground from the battery.
The car still runs. Battery or wire issues something is draining the battery.
Car dies. The alternator is shot.
Got to junk yard find one for your vehicle.
My "battery" light came on and I pulled both the battery and the alternator too them to be tested. Both tested good on their systems. Did the above test and changed the alternator. No issues as of yet and no "battery light. Problem solved.
Junk yard alternator $25.00, $5.00 core.
New alternator $355.xx plus tax and $15.00 core.
Core is money I will get back when I turn in the old alternator.
