If the TEMS clicks then it is working but it doesnt do fuck all anyway, it goes from soft to softer, im gonna fuck it off and get coilovers soon, but im gonna leave that sticker on the back cos that looks DSCHIZNIT


If that's all it does ou need some new TEMS shocks. You should feel it working when cornering etc. They are just a strut with a little three position switch in the top that is switched by an electric motor from soft to medium to hard. Set on hard they're OK - and less painful to drive than a coilover equipped car. TEMS is a compromise between hard suspension and everyday driveability.

The good news is that new TEMS shocks are farking cheap from toyota, and they're made by KYB.

There is a procedure in the TSRM for checking if TEMS is working - it should to switch to hard (all three lights on) when accelerating hard, braking when going over 60km/h and cornering hard. Somntimes the motor's burn out, or the senors from the speedo, steering column and brake pedal fail.
