OK, so I was cleaning the TPS and had my head under the dash and saw something Ive never noticed before!

There is a toggle switch under the dash, just above the parking brake! I took a photo as I have NO idea what it does, there is a sticker in Japanese. I guess its the function of it.

Anyone got ideas??

ahhh excellent! if that only worked lol

there are too many wires that have been cut out during compliance. im sure i could put them back, but do i really need remote start? yeah, probably not lol

  • 10 months later...

I asked the comp to keep the remote start in my car. works great. i only needed a battery for the remote. they took the battery out so it would pass lol.

its great to warm up the car in the morning.

to scare children as they walk past it.

If you extend the antenna on the remote it works from about 6-700metres away. it did for me, im pretty sure i turned the car off :ph34r:

and basically the most important thing, to show off lol :nyaanyaa:

mine has it. Funny thing is the place where I bought it had "no idea" how it worked... lol. cops Arse, I bet they did.

However, it took my Mrs to figure out how to use it! I couldn't make it work! I can now start, can sometimes turn off.

Aaron, have you figured how to unlock the car with it? When the car is started with the remote, and you unlock with the Fob thing, the car will shut off when you open a door or boot. is there any way to unlock using the remote start so the car keeps running, and you don't have to re-start?

(lol- p.i.g.s = cops in SAU world...)

Mine always starts and I can always turn it off..

Umm the car wont stay on if the drivers or one of the passenger doors open I'm sure theres a wire that you could no doubt run a resistor to to tell the module that the doors are shut, but now matter how much i've searched, I cant find a module manual. then trying to find someone to translate will be more of a shit.

The reason why it doesnt stay on is because its factory. If someone tries to jump in n drive off your on your own. and its "unsafe" to have an unlocked car with the engine running. I dont see why but eh..it warms it up in the morning so I dont care.

The only door that opens with it staying on is the boot :)

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
