OEM NAVs that work w/ 4R4

The E7003 and E7008 does not give street names. It does give turn by turn, but along the lines of "Left turn in half a mile.", "U S one oh one is on the left.", "Exit I80 west is on the right.", etc. It gives the audible voice about two miles ahead of exit on the freeway and maybe a half a mile in the city. When you're at the exit on the freeway or intersection in the city, it'll give two beeps at that location.

What about E7007 and E7009?
thx

Those models are very similar, I honestly think they do. I have the E7009 (not installed yet). My mother's 2009 ES350 I don't believe says street names......I would have to check........even if it didn't, all you would have to do is glance down on the screen and make sure the zoom is all the way to read the street you are on/about to go on.....

thanks, did you get your unit yet?

I contacted them today and the bluetooth buttons supposedly came in and are at the toyota dealer, they just have to ship it to me.........they are 10 minutes from me, but I can't (internet sales can NOT be picked up) go and get it. Should be here no later than Thursday!! :hungry:

I've been waiting for someone to tackle this swap, because I could never figure it out for myself!

I was considering having a Kenwood DNX unit installed, but a factory Toyota GPS would be my first choice.

Please keep the updates coming!

Ok, I got the bluetooth buttons for the steering wheel installed. That was a piece of cake. I went to remove the sunglass holder to find that "blue plug" that JBL equipped 4Runners have for the factory mic. No dice. I even loosed the headliners over toward the A-pillar and found nothing...........

Christian: You just installed one, did you have to go looking for it?? And if so, where did you find it(blue plug).

I have a 2005 Limited WITH the JBL..........this is strange....any help would be appreciated!!!

edit: Also: when I turn my lights on, the bluetooth buttons don't light up???? Am I correct in assuming that won't turn on b/c no Navigation Unit is installed?? (signal from the HU)???

 

[CookieRoe]

UPDATE: Installed except for.........

Got up and started on this project FINALLY:

As per info found on this forum I installed:

1) installed bluetooth buttons on the steering wheel and ribbon cable.
2) Couldn't find the blue connector up in the headliner (next to the sunglass holder/map light assembly)...... It's JUST not there
3) Spliced into the VSS/Brake/Reverse wires (best place for the VSS, a bundle of wires behind the HVAC controls. Brake and Reverse I got from the upper left side of the driver's side kick panel)
4) Put my GPS antenea by the rearview mirror. I fished the cable through the dash, up the passenger A-pillar, headliner, then out by where the wires for the rear view mirror come out. (I think this location is best for signal)

Didn't install:
1) Factory MIC (as stated before, there JUST isn't a blue plug that is supposed to be there). I know there is another way to splice into the amp to get the mic to work, I'll have to try that.
2) Rearview camera (don't have one yet, still deciding how to mount it. I want to mount it where a factory one goes, but I dread cutting into the tailgate. Jury is still out on this one)

Questions:

1) What gives with that blue plug NOT being there? Are they only there from 2006 on??
2) My bluetooth button on the steering wheel do NOT illuminate at night. The plugs are secure, what gives????
Thanks a million!!!! :hatsoff:

1) Bluetooth wasn't an option until 2006, so that's why the plug is not there. I bought an external mic and mounted it right below the speedometer. It blends in very well.

2) Did you also purchase the ribbon cable that connects the bluetooth controls to the audio controls (left hand steering wheel controls)? It's part number 84204-58010.

NICE!!! I know there is a thread out there regarding the "pin outs" on how to get it to work. 2006 and beyond? Well, that explains why there's no plug. I got the toyota mic and saw there are only 3 wires to it, that should work !?

2) Did you also purchase the ribbon cable that connects the bluetooth controls to the audio controls (left hand steering wheel controls)? It's part number 84204-58010.
Yes, the ribbon cable I purchase was a little tricky to install (first time I ever moved an airbag, so it was nerve racking), but it clicked in to BOTH the volume controls(left side) to the bluetooth buttons0(right side) connectors. I expect the buttons to light up!! :cry2:

Thanks!

I have this microphone: Carson Toyota TRD Parts, Replacement parts and accessories for Southern California

The microphone should only be 3 wires to the 24-pin connecton on pins 17, 19 and 20. Pins 18 and 12 should be bridged. The microphone I have also has the switched that I wired to pins 9 and 10 (kind of redundant with the one on the steering wheel). So I guess you could try to figure out how the factory mic is wired and hook it up to the 24-pin connector. I can tell you that pin 20 is MIC-, pin 19 is MIC+ and pin 17 is for power. Not sure what 12 and 18 are but they just connect from one to the other.

Not sure what's wrong with your bluetooth buttons not lighting up. I had someone install mine since I was replacing my steering wheel and airbag (I had the vinyl one without the audio controls) and I just wasn't comfortable with swapping out the airbag myself. Just curious, what part number for the bluetooth switch did you order?

Switch, Steering: 84244-35030-BO
Cable sub-assy: 84204-58010

First thing that pops into my head is it's not tight or maybe it's on reverse (but that doesn't make any sense since both ends of the ribbon connector are identical! .........and they only pop in ONE way ). I'll have to pop the airbag out again, fiddle with it.........all just to check a light..hahha.........a shame b/c it's technically not wired to anything (E7009).

Thanks!

Thanks!! having voice will be great.....I'll tackle this soon. I don't expect a problem, BUT the bluetooth has me stumped.

Ok, the bluetooth buttons are not lighting up. When I press (any) of the buttons, I expect the head unit to display SOMETHING, but I get nothing. Because I have a 2005 model, I'm thinking there are connectors/wiring that are not present. I've searched and pretty much found nothing. I gather that if you have a 2006+ 4Runner, you are good to go. If not, you are not.

Can anyone point me in the right direction??? :sadwave:

Thanks!

2005 Bluetooth

No one? :sobbing:

Were you able to get the bluetooth buttons working on your 2005?

I have reached the same situation. Installing a E7008 into a 04 with JBL. I ordered the OEM switch and right to left cable.

On the unit everything works, GPS, backup camera, audio and Bluetooth connectivity (it sees and responds to the telephone).

However I have two major problems - I have no audio/voice for the GPS nor for the Bluetooth telephone. Also, because I have no bluetooth audio, I'm uncertain whether the micorphone is correctly wired.

I used seany's wiring diagram for pins 20,19,17 and 18/12 bridged. What I have not done is wire 9 and 10 even though i have the $50 mic from Carlso (the Japanaese mic) rather than the overhead one

I will try again in the next few days - first tackling the voice from GPS and then the Bluetooth

did you re the wire from the 7008 to the amp in the trunk?
it's a 2 wire with shielding. That's how you can the sound to work

GPS and phone sounds comes through that on the driver's side speaker.

I'm just about to start that research.

I have seen that I need to take three wires from R10
http://www.toyota-4runner.org/audio-electronics/41632-5th-gen-navigation-wiring-info.html
pins 11,12,13 and take them to the amp.

However I do not know where the amp is!
Where in the back is it? and is there a wiring diagram for it? so I know what plug S22 is

the amp is in the trunk on the Passenger side, there is a whole manual on how to get to it - don't try without reading it or you'll break a bunch of plastic...

and yes it's 2 wires + shielding that you need to get through.
