No problem with my carpet, but.... I have already worn out my driver's side floor mat. I got my 2006 Ltd. on the 1st of November, and by the 1st of April I had worn out the carpet fibers on the floor mat under my driving foot. There is not yet a hole all the way through the mat, but its...

Cold you give a little more detail on the parts you used? With my current setup I don't have a shirld. I used two connector wires from a computer cd-Rom connector as suggested by OEMVALUE. I hooked up one connector to the 11 pin under the R10 connector, and the other one to the 13 pin. I...

J0mama, can you break this down a little for those of us who aren't as technically proficient? You are saying I can get the solara nav voice sent through the JBL amp if I just hook up pins 11 and 12 under the R10 connector on the nav to pins 22 and 23 of the s22 connector at the amp, right...

The answers are buried in several threads on this forum. I strongly recommend you search for all the threads, because there is some valuable information buried therein: 1. Will all 10 speakers work with this sytem? Yes, they will, but I don't think the sound is distributed quite as well as...

Get the Nav... I just bought an '06 LE with the JBL system, but only because the dealer was giving me a great price, and there was not going to be a 4Runner meeting my specs with the Nav available for several weeks. I'm satisfied because of the price I got, but I really wish I had waited and...

I had the exact same problem... I have 2006 ltd, and I posted about the exact same problem a couple of weeks ago. After two days, the lights just went off by themselves, and I've had no problems since then. You might try disconnecting the negative battery post and let the truck sit for a...

That's interesting. The first time I installed the Nav I was extra cautious and disconnected the negative battery terminal before I opened anything up. The only problem with this was it was dark in my garage and those map lights sure are nice to have on when you're mucking around with the...

A little wierd....it cleared up I had some errands to run and was going to swing by Autozone on the way home, but the dashboard lights all went off by themselves. I know, everyone is thinking that this must mean there is a short or loose connection somewhere, and the problem will likely...

There simply is no fuse information available. The back cover of the fuse box tells the amperages of the fuses (just in case your replacement fuses don't print the amperages right on their face, I guess), but not what those fuses run. Phil, thanks for the tip on the check engine light check at...

2006 Limited. The only extra electronics are the Solara Nav unit I just plugged in.

Okay, I'm hoping I just blew a fuse, but the owner's manual is not at all helpful in determining what each fuse relates to. I was screwing around with my Navigation system again, plugging in a microphone, and after I got everything back together the 'check engine' light and the "VSC OFF" lights...

You need to go into the diagnostics menu. There are two ways to get there: 1. Start your engine with your headlights in the 'off' position (most of us probably keep them in the 'auto' position). After hitting 'I agree' on the opening menu, push the hard 'INFO' button on the right. Then...

Okay, I'll answer my own question. I'm not pretty sure that the existing harness was for the Rear Entertainment System, but since I don't have that system they wires just went to nowhere. No harm in having them still installed behind the dash. Still waiting for further hints on installing...

The Avic N2 system is not compatible with the JBL synthesis amp. The JBL amp requires a digital input, and I am pretty sure the Avic models are all analog. I opted for the Solara unit from OEMvalue, but before buying that I shopped around for an after market unit. One of the better outfits in...

I just completed an install on a 2006 Limited with the JBL 10 speaker system. Install was a piece of cake, as described within this thread, and I have NEVER attempted something like this before. I have not yet installed the external speaker required of the JBL systems in order to hear the...
