Hi Guys, thought you might be able to help. Does anyone know what this button does? Its on a 98 S2 (2.5t X FOUR). I was thinking it had something do do with the transmission. Its an Auto but not a tiptronic. I have done numerous searches (here and google) and can't seem to find any info.

Im considering purchasing the car so any info would be appreciated.

cheers

looks more like after market cruise control to me. do you have 2 throttle cables under the bonnet?

Thanks Duncan,

Yeah, I did consider cruise control, but it doesn't seem to have the standard acc resume.

also it appears on another similar car at auction in japan ( http://www.tradecarview.com/stock/detail.aspx?sid=1037404 ) so I don't tink its after market?

Its called "switch assy-radio" in FAST, so im guessing it will adjust your radio.

Once again I'm happy to say Chook is 100% correct!

It is the "steering audio switch" and it came as standard on the X series.

Why the X series? I thought V's were the optioned-up ones! :)

Here it is anyway from the manual:

Only question is, of course, where to get one???

I'd say it won't as I believe it is hard wired to the oem unit.

If the truth be known, the X series were the most optioned & Expensive of the Stageas. In fact the 25t X FOUR was the only one to come with the Navi/TV as standard.

Interesting. So what is the difference between V, X and Prime? I take it Prime was an option in either V or X series? If so is it possible to get a 25t X FOUR Prime ?

no thats only one question - the other is, does it work with aftermarket head units?

I'm guessing that this would be possible, as these things usually come through the clock spring as direct wire connections. You'd have to be really unlucky and find that it has been serially encoded or something... and then, I saw a kit somewhere the other day, which was made specifically for such a purpose, and had settings for adapting Holden/Toyota and some other factory-fitted steering-wheel controls... can't remember where it was but I think it was Jaycar. Failing that, it was DSE's or Altronics.

When you say V I assume you mean RS?

There was no X prime edition. this was only for the RS series. You could get the X in leather but it was Olive grey.

some if the diffs would be no tiptronic option in X, and the interior was velour (which i prefer) not jacquard, among many others.

The real povvo models were the G series. which look similar to the X's.

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
