    Side mirror swap to add turn signal and puddle lamp

    Simply put, I didn't like watching my time, energy, and effort that I put into my projects get deleted by a mod, to then have my harness designs (IP) ripped off by a certified scam artist that they brought onto this site. I freely gave info and was screwed over for it. Read about it here:TRD...

    Need help - Broken TSS connector

    Flooded my 4runner passenger side!

    Carova Colton, let me do some digging. I don’t buy that ECU has something that can’t be rewritten or reset. There is no difference between the 14-19MY ECM unless it is a 2wd vs 4wd ECU. I’m pretty sure there is a way to reset the ecu.

    Flooded my 4runner passenger side!

    Carova Colton, I didn't know you responded, so sorry for the delay. Use the "@" symbol in front of a users name, and we get a notification when we are mentioned, otherwise we have no clue. I remember getting mine off Amazon, but no there is no specific ones that I would recommend. I would...

    Flooded my 4runner passenger side!

    Carova Colton, I might be able chime in and help here if possible. I've played around with my 4Runner electronics more than most. All information going to the instrument cluster occurs via the vehicle CAN bus or via a direct line. Shifter position, RPM, etc is all via the CAN bus, with the...

    Door Light LED Swap Fuse(?) Issue

    Thanks, and hold on to that Supra and Tacoma.:D I don't think it's possible to have the original MPX repaired. When those two Diodes burn out (I am assuming you have seen the thread on the other site?) It destroys the traces on the circuit board and or melts the layers effectively making the...

    Door Light LED Swap Fuse(?) Issue

    Keep in mind I only have the experience with the one Limited MPX here, but I would venture a guess and say yes, it should be plug and play. Remember, the keyed ignition models have the MPX acting as the Key RF code receiver whereas the smart key system has a separate ECU acting as that system...

    Door Light LED Swap Fuse(?) Issue

    In my experience, yes. For instance, I have a Limited and Trail MPX that are identical with a white and gold decal with 89221-35240 on both. If you buy new, sometimes the part number on the parts box will be correct, but the number on the part will not, even though the application is by the...

    Door Light LED Swap Fuse(?) Issue

    06sport, did you replace the Main Body MPX ECU with a new or used one? If used, the new MPX might not be a limited one, as the door locks do not work if a non smart key MPX is used with the smart key system and vice versus. Just an FYI, as there is a programming difference.

    Folding Mirror kit - anyone try this yet?

    Interesting. Looks very similar to the Toyota OEM folding parts from a Japan model I put in mine a sometime ago. Slightly different design in a few areas, but fitment looks like it would be drop in. No dremel or angle grinding required to clearance the inside of the factory mirrors, and looks...

    TRD Pro Side Mirror Swap/Upgrade

    jasonsmith1810, I will post here what I said in another thread were folks were asking about the various harness projects I did. Based on what has happened with my threads on this site and my useful information being deleted, I am not producing any harnesses at the moment because of that and...

    TRD Pro Side Mirror Swap/Upgrade

    rayofsi that project has been completed. Was in the process of doing the 60+page pdf write up with the required parts list from Toyota and steps to do it when my stuff went bye-bye. Needless to say I stopped working on the pdf write up It’s not easy or quick, and is a lot of work. It’s more...

    My $5 mod in 5 mins.

    This 100%. For those with SR5's who don't get any change with the sensor, you are missing a blue, pink and red wire from the Main body MPX ECU to the large junction connector behind the instrument cluster. If you have the blue connector attached to the blank where the sensor goes, the wiring...

    Where does this go?
