Unsustainably for .02/10ths of a mile never going above 8 miles an hour or giving any appreciable gas. Yup.

lol

On another note, anyone know how to remove 100 ohms from a circuit? My truck is flex fuel and the sender works on a 100-500 ohm circuit, the cluster is regular and wants 1-400 so full is 3/4 and empty has 1/4 left.

 

I meant add 100 ohms, oops

 

Last few days have been wiring the steering wheel controls, I bought another in a series of steeringwheels and it came today, it's in great condition but is for a Tacoma so the switch connector does not work.I have a 2020 Sequoia wheel coming tomorrow so that better be the end of that. I gave it the full leather cleaning/rejuvenation since it's sitting & waiting for switches.

Here is the final wheel/switch config.

It's calculating MPG again from being out, I was hammering it this entire trip, if I was getting more than 7mpg I'd be shocked.

Love this 2020 Tacoma/4Runner wheel.

Also, I ordered a new cluster from Toyota, it will come from Denso with correct miles and the Vin encoded.

 

The Prius needed to be smogged, I sat in a line waiting to get the certificate for 30 minutes along with over 50 others, is it me or is that not polluting???

When I got there I was a block away.

 

Live MPG is working.

 

but also at 4.3mpg

 

Every time it is reset it has these awful numbers at first. It gets 14-16 city, 17-18 highway, 15 combined.

 

Cruise display is working now!

 

I went through all the functions this morning, tow-haul works, it goes off when in manual mode. I have no idea if it did that stock, I rarely used manual shift.

RSCA & Traction OFF (squiggly lines apparently =traction in Toyotaese) turns off all the nannies, only traction only turns off some (unsure of the actual difference)





All the 4WD functions work as they should. First is 2WD.

 

7.3 mpg.

 

I have not driven more than 20 miles since the last reset. It goes up slowly as I drive.

That's better than 4.

 

Another small trip, all street, driven aggressively.

 

I had to look up RSCA. Saw the same button my FIL's 08 Tundra.
RSCA = Roll Sensing Curtain Airbag
Guess it'd be bad to have your side airbags deploy while brodozing at the mall

Makes me remember a friend that had a R129 Mercedes SL (Silver Arrow Edition SL500). Take a curve hard enough & it would trigger the roll bar to deploy, quite aggressively.

 

11mpg? Damn, good thing gas is cheap.

 

It would suck to have your airbag deploy while snaking a parking space at the mall at 8g!

 

Next one will be 13, gas is cheap compared to almost everywhere else.

 

I found the Tacoma buttons have a blue backlight so...

 

Faux TRD Pro logos came, they are metal and nicer than OEM, now I need to find the template for placement.

 

Those look substantial.

 

TRD Pro: Professional Pooper.

 

Better add that military grade terlet paper holder to the rear hatch area then.

 

Paper towel holder?

 

 

NGL, I want one.

Yeah, paper towels, toilet paper...depending on how big of an asshole you have are.

Howard the Duck!

 

Pro badges are on, I'm a bit low in back but I like it.









I got a scanner on Prime day, it's great, it's fast, scans codes I did not know existed & cleared them.

 

I took a few as it sits now, I'm really happy with it.


​​​​​​​

 

TRD Pro? More like TRD Faux (props if you get badges that say that lol)

 

What made you say that?


Actually, it has 90% of what a Pro has (and better) and I will be getting the running boards & rims so all it will be missing is the roof rack.

 

I was kidding, you've done an unbelievable job with this thing. I don't think anyone has put so much effort into a Sequoia ever, not even the ones that built it at the factory.

 

I knew, thanks.

 

I'm leaning towards these rims actually. (wish I could afford 100k for a used Heritage LC)

 

Can you not just take your current wheels to get refinished in that color? Should look pretty close to that...

 

That would be a great idea but my rims are 20", and I want to go 18".

 

Cluster came, first is before connecting the switches hence Xmas tree.

 

Raining and finally under 90. But 75% humidity. It still got over 100 though.

Cai is working properly.

 

I thought all humidity gauges stopped at 45% out there.

 

I was promised a dry heat.
