An okada man hit my door and damaged it...and though he admitted its his fault I let him go cos of mercy.
Parked my car (Toyota Corolla 2004 model) outside cos there were truvks blocking my gate that night and before morning thieves came and stole my brain box and many other things.

Now I have fixed other things remaining the brain box. The one I got today did not start the car. And the mechanic and electrician assured me that they will get the one that will fit.

My question is this, when I change the brain box will the car start giving issues or it will still work as it was before?

Golden rule of corolla ownership:

Never park a corolla outside the gate, no matter the circumstance, time of the day or predicament.

Sorry for your loss, and yes you will get a brainbox to match.
50% possibility you might even get your old brainbox

Expert in the house, please is there a possibility for someone to put GPS in a brain box. Cos I want to buy corolla and I don't want a quarrel with brainbox thieves
It is not brain box alone they steal. Never ever park your corolla where thieves are comfortable accessing it.

That's why it's a booming business for thiefs.

It isn't possible to install a GPS on the brain box besides the brain box itself cost about 45 but 50k max in Ladipo so installing a GPS on it would cost almost twice. Let's just hope it wont happen yp your car again.

Is your car brain box customised only for your Toyota Corrola?

Is this your first car? Look for better mechanics not all these hungry ones.. Or you might resort to push your car before working

I don't know why people keep buying this car. The probability of vandalism and theft is just too high to justify whatever other advantages it might have.

Ordinarily to park this Corolla for outside beer parlour come rush two bottles of beer with peppersoup, na wahala. You fit finish come outside you no go see your car again. Complete nonsense.

so u don't know why many guy's are using it?
fuel economy
cheap parts
portable
parts availability
easy repair
strong


so with this few point of mine I strongly propose that by now u know the reason why guys buy Toyota corolla. thank you (bows and walk away)

Re: My Toyota Corolla's Brain Box Has Been Stolen! by CrownPrincehawk(m): 8:47am On Nov 15, 2019
First check the Internet for clue of brainbox that will match your Corolla model and where to buy.
Better still go to Toyota motor dealers for assistance. Pls try to get the correct version if you want to enjoy the car. Bro keep your car save because Nigerians love corolla as monkey love banana.

mine got stolen too. thank God for insurance. axa mansard replaced it. You can get a good one for between 25-40k. It you see a good one for 25k, it was most likely also stoLen from another corolla but will work perfectly. Fake cheap ones will make you hate your car as they'll start causing problems. God bless you with wisdom
