• Q: How to Remove the Cigarette Lighter Assembly for Column Shift Type on 2009 Toyota Tundra?

  A: The procedure for Column Shift Type cigarette lighter assembly starts by extracting the FRONT DOOR SCUFF PLATE LH from both Double Cab and Regular Cab and continuing with the removal of COWL SIDE TRIM BOARD LH and INSTRUMENT SIDE PANEL LH. Move on to take away the LOWER INSTRUMENT PANEL FINISH PANEL SUB-ASSEMBLY LH together with the CENTER LOWER INSTRUMENT COVER from the vehicle. The technician must start by taking off the FRONT ASH RECEPTACLE BOX SUB-ASSEMBLY then the LOWER INSTRUMENT CLUSTER FINISH PANEL. Begin this procedure by removing the CIGARETTE LIGHTER COVER followed by the CIGARETTE LIGHTER ASSEMBLY when you detach the cigarette lighter knob and element before you use a screwdriver to separate the claw from the cigarette lighter socket and retainer assembly while gently taping the screwdriver tip during removal from the lower instrument cluster finish panel. Detach the two claws to take out the CIGARETTE LIGHTER INDICATOR LENS.
