Updating FAQ and Mod Page - Need Help

[1engineer]

There are several new "fixes" and mods out there that need to be added to this page http://www.toyota-4runner.org/5th-gen-t4rs/92594-modifications-write-ups-quick-links-faqs.html and I need your help. For example, posts #14 and #15 in this thread http://www.toyota-4runner.org/5th-gen-t4rs/181469-drivers-door-lock-stuck.html tell how to fix the door lock motor problem. There are many more and that's where you come in! If you know of a thread that needs to go in the mods, write up and FAQ's thread please post it, along with a link, below. I will wait a few days on your replies before I reorganize that page. Thanks!

Would this not be the simplest 12v outlet always hot mod?

Simple, reversible, quick, & cheap - ALWAYS ON 12V Outlet Mod

The diagrams and explanation is here:

This execution skips the "switch" part.

"Add-a-ciruit" available @ your local auto stores - Kragen/O'reily, AutoZone, Pep-boys for $6.

*Credits to a few other guys in this forum who had done it before*

This will NOT run your fridge tho.

The factory wire gauge of wires off the 2 rear seats 12V outlet as well as the cargo 12V outlet from the battery are probably not sufficient enough to handle the instantaneous current draw of the starting of the compressor, hence, at the 12V outlet, the voltage dips lower than the "battery monitoring" voltage. The ARB fridge will NOT run.

For the ARB Fridge, you need to run your own wiring. (This seems to be the conclusion I am getting at).

Still plenty of reason to do this.

I think we need to add a "Hall of Shame" sticky for someone that asks a question to which there's already more then 10 pages of info on...

I'd like to see a solar sticky for those of us that incorporated solar in their racks and trucks...especially as technology improves...some of these geniuses here will come up with some cool installs
