I'm not even sure how they switches are in my truck. I just know that it's different from my 2013 and it's shit layout that makes no sense. Every time I go to do something, I have to look at it. But I guess it's not memorable enough to 'member.

 

No one answered my requests to build a cable so I bought the entire dash wire harness for 500 bucks. Be nice if the cluster harness comes out on its own and its connector into the truck is the same.

 

No option to just re-pin the harness/cluster to match?

 

Everyone I have found said no, I tried to repin 2-3 wires for NAV & XM antennas and was unable to get the wires out of the connectors and ended up splicing. I'm not splicing 40 in one connector & 13 in another. Hopefully, I can swap the harness (cluster) in, if not maybe the ones that were unwilling to make the cable will be willing to pin the one side.

 

Dumb question, but have you used a de-pinning tool? I always fuck around like a monkey with a paperclip and jewelers screwdriver when I'm in my garage, but at work where I have the proper tools, it's a breeze popping pins in and out.

Note: I'm also too dumb to just buy a bunch of de-pinners to have at the house. YMMV.

 

Yes, I have a comprehensive set, so many it's hard to find the right one (maybe that is the issue, I didn't) so, yup, I tried.

 

Okay. Then did you try indiscriminately jamming a paperclip and screwdriver in the sockets?

 

I tried everything prior to splicing. I ruined the connector, that's why I spliced.

 

Harness came, the sub-harness I need goes in both directions. I have my work cut out for me.

 

 

What are you suggesting?

 

You're going to be in wiring hell for a bit.

 

Yup, thought you were saying I was going to kill the truck/myself.

lol

 

Maybe if you cross one too many wires...

 

Do you have a better source of wiring diagrams than the bootleg .zip floating around on the internets?

 

Under this paradigm, there will be no crossing, just disconnecting the OEM plug that is part of the truck & substituting this one. (assuming I can get this mess apart)

I have the full Toyota Technical system diagrams downloaded one system at a time, over 4 days at 20 bucks a 2 day period. (for both 2013 my truck and 2019 the donor truck)

Man, this harness is insane!

 

I stand by this.

 

I never argued, in fact I not only agree but am living the "dream"

I hoped to be able to pull it out & "just" swap the connectors in. I can't find this bulkhead where the 2 connectors going that way seem to be going.

 

Gave up trying to get the harness out, cut it, gave it power.

 

Dang. You better get to the dealer.

 

Anyone know a software engineer that will tackle the canbus? I will need an emulator at a minimum to tell the cluster all those nonexistent systems are present & happy (may need it to translate other inputs) Won't know until I get the cable end to complete the cable, I have 6 sets coming, 2 each from China, Japan & a company claiming to ship from the US.

 

Upper dash & 4X switch came, connector fits, but it is wired differently.

 

I got the wiring to the 2019 4X switch!

It's 1 PINK-YELLOW 2 YELLOW-BLUE 3 WHITE-VIOLET 4 WB-WB 5 BL BL

 

Here's all the modes!

Harley JR. went to the vet for the first time.

He was very good in the Sequoia.




When we came out, there was a pretty clean 1st gen next to us.

 

Now kith

 

He was waaaaay over the line!

 

Connectors from the U.S. company came, it's the wrong side & there are no pins.

 

I reset the settings for a new client's Meraki that required me to access their DC afterward, the password was ilovetrump with special characters & caps/numbers.


WTF?

 

Tried to install the new dash. it fits fine without the gauges in.




The good news is my mirror, door/interior light switches & AC vents fit!

 

Anyone know of a source for connectors?

It is the part I got direct from TE, they have a PN 1674312-1 & 1674312-2 Both say, female.

They have no available pins, they are all no longer made. Looks like I'm waiting for the ones I ordered from China.

 

Yesterday with .90 cents off per gallon.

 

Got gas yesterday, person before me put 24gal of 93. Just shy of $100.
Betting my neighbor is glad he's almost 100% remote work. Commuting in the TRX would get painful on the wallet.

Stock Sequoia? Why run 91?

 

It has a premium tune, catback, someday I will get the AFE cai I paid for in December & I will someday install the headers I bought months ago.

Mostly the tune is cranking up my timing and fuel tables so I need the octaines, it was an easy choice when gas was 2.359 and luckily I am using a tank a month and a half (last fill up was 2/22)

Also!

I forgot to post, bodywork is scheduled for the end of the week, hope to have the truck back by next Monday, excited!

 

Gotcha, didn't know you were tuned.

My sister got hit in her Escape, so she's been driving my dad's Denali XL. She did not enjoy the $65 to fill 1/2 tank.

 

She can rent a Fiesta.

lol

 

She should have that all worked out with insurance today.

 

How much of a benefit is a tune with a NA V8?

 

I never dynoed either. The Tundra & Sequoia both feel much better. The AFRs are much better.
