T Belt Warning Light

Hi Guys, can any one help? When is the T Belt warning lamp supposed to be activated? Is it on a certain amount of stretch of the belt? On time?? My handbook is in Thai so I can't refer to it. (And the Mrs isn't too technical either) LOL

I did read a post of an early Hilux Tiger where the light came on and the guy was going to fit a belt.

Any info greatly accepted.

Forget about the light and just change the belt at regular intervals

If it's any help...years ago (early 80's) my father had a few Hiace vans. On the diesel one the T Belt light came on at 50k miles, and went out again at 100k miles.

It comes on at around 90K and needs replacing, it does not measure the tension, it is ready to change on mileage basis

Thanks for the info guys. I am happy to change the belt as parts over here are quite cheap £60 for a new belt, tensioner and roller. I wanted to know about the light as to how I put it out if it does come on - I guess Toyota plug it in - maybe recorded in the cluster.

Thanks again.
