I have a friend with a really nice 1998 celica with 140k miles. Super rare that it’s an Iowa car that is nearly rust free. He had it parked for a few years and we cranked.it up recently. Don’t worry, I checked all the fluids before we cranked it up. After a new battery and inflating a flat tire, it seemed to do alright.
The problem.
I raised the front end for an inspection. There is clicking like a worn tie rod, but it seems to be coming from the rack. The tie rods are nice and tight. Have any of you experienced that before?
Bonus round!
There is a small square shaped switch labled TRD, it has a slide up and down switch on one side and a rotary control recessed on the other edge. It has a two or three foot wire connecting it from left side of the dashboard. I thought maybe a driving light control, but it doesn’t touch that function. Any idea what that is?

Not sure on the trd switch? If you look in your owners manual it should show the switch
and what it does. for the noises here is link to help.http://www.ericthecarguy.com/faq/diagnosing-noises-in-your-car
According to some sites, a rear wiper was an option. Perhaps that’s an ON/OFF switch with a variable delay for the wiper?
