Where to find a new transmission speed sensor?

Hi squad!

My 3L 1997 SuperCustom has a dud transmission speed sensor... any idea where I could get a new one? Took it to the Toyota dealership but they had no idea.

Cheers!

That’s weird. It uses the same transmission and engine as a hilux/surf/4Runner/pickup/Tacoma and many others.

It’s an A340F 4 speed automatic. They made it from 1988-2005. Transfer is a bit bespoke but that’s not your issue.

Tell them it’s not a Hiace. Say it’s a big hilux surf.

Either way it’s a readily available part. My year of hiace (1993/1994) had 48 vehicles match the same sensor in Toyotas inventory.

I’d give the dealership another try. Find somebody that will listen and I bet they help you.

Have an awesome weekend

Roach, it seems that Toyota dealers vary. Here in Brisbane what was my local dealer was happy to work on my van but they relocated and a different dealer moved in. The new one will only do a basic service because "we can't get parts for imports". The original dealer, in their new location, is still happy to do most jobs such as my upcoming timing belt change.
