DIY Cruise Control on 07-08 Yaris (step by step)

[CTScott]

Using the toyota stalk I got from salvage yard on the column, in an '08 MT, is the wiring already in the column for the switch to connect to or would I have to mount this switch stalk elsewhere?

The wiring from the inside of the steering wheel to the base of the steering column is there, so you can mount the stalk where it belongs. If you didn't get the wire to connect the stalk to the clockspring (AKA spiral cable), then you will need it. You will also need to add the wiring from the ECM to the steering column.

[darkMINI]

Ok, thanks CTScott, is there a picture somewhere of this "spiral cable" you speak of? My stalk has a red and white wire coming out of it that end at a plastic connector that also has a short white wire with a female spade connector, but its not spiralled.
When I raped the poor Corolla of its cruise stalk I didn't see a spiral cable in the steering wheel.

The "spiral cable" or clockspring is the round plastic assembly that allows the steering wheel to turn without ripping out the airbag, horn, and cruise wires. When you pull the airbag, the connector where the cruise stalk (and horn) connects to is at the top. Here's a picture of mine with my cruise stalk installed:

If your Corolla connector is different than the Yaris one, then you will need to move the pins from the Corolla on to the existing cruise/horn connector.

[darkMINI]

Ok, thanks for the great picture. So I may or may not have the correct connector for the clockspring. Guess I won't know until I open the steering wheel. Keeping my fingers crossed!

Look at the connector on your Corolla harness. If it is a 4 pin connector, like the white one in my photo, then you are OK. If it is larger than that, then you will have to move the pins over.

CScott and all 2008 CND Sedan owners.. I have read most of the threads on the CC and since most are about the US version of Yaris, I just want to confirm for the CND version.

I am wanting to install the OEM steering wheel CC control stalk, I do not need any additional running of wiring from the small 4 pin connector in the steering wheel other then from the CC stalk to the connector..

Sorry guys if this is a repeat question..

On your 08 sedan, I am pretty sure that you will need to run the wire from the other end of the clockspring to the ECM, as all 08 liftbacks require that wire to be run.

Wired it up last Friday on my '07 liftback and I have been cruising ever since! Thank you SO MUCH!! I used the remote start pannel and placed 4 push buttons from fry's electronics. They look really sleek, the color matches perfectly. They are very stiff and springy (as opposed to clicky), so its very pleasant to use for speeding up and slowing down.

I suffer from some stupid leg problems and if I cannot bend my leg for long periods of time I get terrible shooting pains along the nerves. Now I can drive long distances without wanting to cry. Thank you thank you!

Hi Scott and all.. For the lift of me, I can not identify the D3 connector as in the DIY document to confirm if I have CC pre wired for the sedan.. Should it be visiable from under the dash area with out having to remove any covers?

It's on the steering column, and requires removing the lower column cover to see it. Just remove the screw by the steering wheel tilt lever and the two that become visible when you turn the steering wheel.

Good news for CND 2008 Sedan owners.. The wiring is there to the ECN. :thumbup: I will assume all the wiring in the steering wheel is also present..

Not sure about the US version of 2008 Sedan and if the wiring to the ECN is there..

Here is a photo I took of the ECN connector..

[Yarisduder]

I have that blue wire but the one connecting that blue wire to D3 is absent. So you should take off the three screws holding the bottom of the column cover on to check. It doesn't even take 5 minutes.

[CB900F2]

Hi Yarisduder.. Well... you are right!... pulled off the cover and the CC wires are not there!.. GOD DAM!!!.. :cry:

[Bluffnaked]

Before I make any modifications, can anyone confirm if I in fact have the CC wires. I've been looking at my wires for a while and the DYI guide, and it's hard for me to tell if I do or don't.

You do not. See the white connector with the one black wire - That would have a brown and blue as well if you did.

[Bluffnaked]

Thank you CT, I didn't even notice that one until you pointed it out lol.


And success, installed and working like a charm. Thx to CT for the indication box, and the PDF. Although I think the DIY PDF reads wrong about the location of A21.


"4. Run the positive wire (red wire on last page pictures) to pin 40 of ECM connector A21. This connector is the one on the right plugged into the ECM (left side of the engine bay if you are standing in front of the car). You must first cut the ziptie, push the clips (I used a small screwdriver) and undo the hooks to remove the cover as shown by nickhjort in the following picture. Then you push the little rubber that is in the pin40 out with a pin and get your wire through. I suggest that you skin the wire on 1-2 cm, twist it and then cut it as close as possible to the connector after you pulled
it from the other side."

On my car A21 is the right side of the ecm when I'm standing in front of the car, it's the smaller one of the two. When you read the above paragraph from the DYI PDF, it starts to say right side, then goes to say "left side of engine bay if you are standing in front of the car". This threw me off, so I wrestled with the other connection which is a lot harder to get off for a while, till I realized I had the wrong one. LOL anyway just wanted to point that out. And of course I do appreciate the DYI, because I was close to having the dealer install it for me for the tune of $500 big ones.

[drunix]

I just finished a 1000 mile trip with the 2 button cruise control and I liked it so much that I upgraded to a variation on the 4 button version. While on the road I picked up a MOMENTARY-OFF-MOMENTARY toggle switch (at HSC Electronics in California, $1.49). I now have Up=RES/+ and Down=SET/- on the switch, a low profile Microswitch push button for On/Off and a C&K white pushbutton for Cancel.
By using 3 differently shaped controls, I can feel the difference, so I don't need to be able to see them. I had the push buttons in my stash.

The toggle switch is similar to this: http://search.digikey.com/scripts/DkSearch/dksus.dll?Detail&name=EG2388-ND

Note also this is a 2010 Yaris automatic, stripped down (no power package), and it had the cruise control wiring in place.

[sheraz2000]

i have one question here.

My yaris D3 connector has one cable (black). When i remove this connector, the horn stops working. is it the horn connector ? what kind of power does this cable provide. Negative or positive ? also the pin 40 on the ECM doesnt contain any sort of power when i check it with a power meter. Is it supposed to have any pulse or something? i am just a little worried to not damage the ECM by doing this sort of a setup. Is it safe ?? 100% ?? :p

[CB900F2]

Scott... It appears for my 08 CND Sedan, the wire run from the ECU to AD4 is there, and what is missing is the wire run from AD4 to D3..

Since AD4 is tucked way in the top left side of the inner dash, not sure if you have ever taken apart your Yaris's top dash, and if you have noticed if both ends of AD4 have the light blue wire.. I am really hoping Toyota has the wire run from AD4 to D3, but only decided to tuck away the run from AD4 to D3 some where.

I would find it odd that all of the other wiring is there as even the clutch switch is there, but they manufactured the wire harness with only missing the run from AD4 to D3

What do you think?

I don't believe that Yaris for your area have the cruise functionality. Besides that, the black wire is the horn. There are two additional wires that get added to D3 for cruise control.

Getting to AD4 requires removing the top of the dash. The wire from AD4 to D3 is definitely not tucked, as it would be part of the harness that also contains the horn wire.

In my area YARIS is not available, so i had to buy it from JAPAN. Does it work with JAPANESE models ??

[sheraz2000]

also i have got a Yaris sedan (BELTA in japan) . got 3 wires in D3 connector. Got it also from JAPAN. can i do the CC with both these cars ??

If the Belta has blue and brown as the other two wires in D3, then it should work. If it has the cruise control indicator in the cluster, then to test it just jump the blue to the brown with the ignition on and the CC indicator should light.


For the other, which just has the black wire, the best quick test is to measure the voltage on the ECM pin (A21-Pin 40) with the ignition on. If CC is active on the ECM, then that pin will have 12V on it.

Hello!
I have a question, I hope you all don't mind....
I have an 08 liftback, MT, without wiring. I've installed the buttons and the wiring to ground and ECM. I don't have a harness for the clutch switch, so I need to rig the switch to go into the fuse box in the engine bay. (If this is wrong please correct me)

The clutch switch has two contacts, so I assume I run two wires off of those contacts into the fuse box. My question is which wire goes where? Looking at the picture on the top of the 4th page of the pdf, I'm not entirely sure.

[r0chin]

Would this work on a 2009 Sedan?

Correct on the clutch switch wiring. The clutch switch goes to the blue wire indicated below and the white wire, to pins to the right of the blue.

Thanks for the response! Checking to make sure I understand:
So both wires from the clutch switch splice into the blue wire and the white wire is moved to the right of the blue?

For the European Yaris, you need to use an aftermarket cruise control, since the European ECM doesn't seem to have the function built in.

Check out the link below. This Belgium based company makes an aftermarket CC for European Toyotas:

[CTScott]

thanks for quick reply, if you are right, toyota has made 2 differenct ECM only for Cruise function?? very strange. i'm studing toyota thought, and in my car i have all predisposition for all optionals. This thing means that toyota don't make too many productive lines for different cables, why they should do this for ECM?

I don't know why they have different programs for the ECMs for the different markets. I would think that people all over the world would appreciate cruise control.

well, when i opened up the D3 connector on my belta, i got these wires. Tell me what to do from here forward. SORRY about the blurry pic, was taken from my mobile cam. But the wire colors r pink, orange, grey and black. there is no blue and brown cable. How to check if my car has CC in ECM.

Those three wires are for the steering wheel audio controls. If a Yaris is wired for them, then it definitely does not have Cruise Control. Based on the wiring diagrams, areas that have steering wheel radio controls do not have cruise control and areas that have cruise control do not have steering wheel radio controls.

but, my steering wheel doesnt have any radio controls. can i do the CC still, using the pin 40 method and using the black wire ?? (while ignoring the rest of the cables) ???

No. Even though your car doesn't have the controls, ones for your area are wired for it, which means that the ECM does not support cruise control.

[sheraz2000]

No. Even though your car doesn't have the controls, ones for your area are wired for it, which means that the ECM does not support cruise control.

so, the final and the last test would be to check pin 40 for 12V current. if on ignition it gives out a current, then do i have CC? ??

I wouldn't put the effort into checking, as based on how your Yaris is wired, I am 90% certain that your ECM doesn't have cruise control.

so if I understand this correctly I cannot do this cheap cruise control on european yaris ?

have actually somebody from europe installed this cruise control ? what do you need to know to say that it cannot be done ?

That is correct - It will not work on a European one. The European service manual and EWDs have no documentation on cruise control. Your only option is an aftermarket cruise control system.

Hey all I haven't been keeping up on this post, or others for that matter :) I was without a computer for a while and am just now getting set back up. Anyway I'm glad to see that so many people are interested, or have already done their own Cruise Control. I am just here to say that I am one of the first to set mine up in this manner and it's been a little over a year. My cruise has been a life saver (foot saver rather) and i barely spent over 15 dollars (that's on the first setup with all parts sitting in my junk part piles) and now have updated it with a few OEM parts (clutch switch, ECU pin insert, etc) Also for those of you that want to have an even closer OEM look, I strongly recommend CTScott's LED module (if he's still selling them) for making your CC light an LED when it's switched on. I mounted my LED inside the gauge cluster and it looks bad ass :) Anyway I just wanted to let everyone know all is well with this setup and keep sticking it to the man HAHA!!

Hello all,

I hope my question isn't stupid. I have been reading all the forum hours and hours. They are kind of confusing. BTW, I have 08 Yaris LB.

So, I ordered a cruise stalk from here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/TOYOTA-CAMRY-YARIS-COROLLA-07-08-09-10-CRUISE-CONTROL-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem2a0b97a555QQitemZ18058 3114069QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccesso ries

I understand that I can just "combine" the "DIY cruise control 07-08 with button" and "OEM stalk 2009", then everything should work magically.

Here are my questions:
1. So, the stalk I purchased from eBay could be just substituted as the switches in "DIY cruise control 07-08", right??
2. If Question 1 is a yes, then how do I know which wire from the stalk goes where?
3. Do I need to get any other parts besides the stalk?


1. Yes.

2. It actually doesn't matter which of the two goes to the ECM pin 40 and which goes to ground.

3. Yes. You need a repair pin for the ECM and one for the connector under the steering column. See this thread for the details:

A little piece of wire with the pin attached is all that you get for $12. I recently bought the parts so that I can offer the 3 pin/wire set for $10 shipped.

[CTScott]

Thanks for the answer. There must be something I still not getting. In the instruction, DIY Cruise Control 07-08, it did not say anthing about the "repair pin". If I missed it, please kindly point it out...

Isn't the repair pin.. just a piece of wire??

And, what is a repair pin? any pictures? what does it do?

Thanks!!

The DIY shows just sticking a piece of wire into the connector. This is not a good long term solution, as it will allow moisture to enter the sealed connector. The repair pin is one of the correct pins (with the rubber seal) that inserts into the connector.

Thanks for the step by step info, I was wondering if it works for a 08 Yaris HB? and what type of switches are they, are they the click type (sorry not very professional) or push on-push off type?

Thank you,

Thank you,

The switches need the be momentary normally open switches. Momentary is the type like a key on a keyboard, where you press it and it pops back up. Normally open means that it completes the circuit when you press it.

Is anyone having an issue with the cruise control indicator light? For some reason my LED doesn't light up when I engage the cruise (OEM stalk) all the time. I will press it again to disengage it and then it comes on. It will do that sometimes, and sometimes it won't come on at all when I engage it, and other times it works properly. At first thought, was thinking it might be a short -- but it only happens when the cruise is either engaged or disengaged as opposed to just randomly coming on or off while driving.

The indicator module detects the voltage change when the on/off switch is pressed. If the connections between the ECM and the stalk are not solid, then the voltage drop across them can cause the module to misinterpret the press.

[PROX4x4]

It's actually 240 and 390.

You can use any value within these ranges:
216 to 264 ohms for one between resume and on/off
351 to 426 ohms for the one between set and resume
819 to 1001 ohms for the one between set and cancel

For wattage, 1/8 or 1/4 watt is fine.


I wonder if this switch would work for the on/off & Set setting for this type of cruise control setup?

The switches need to be momentary. That on is ON/OFF/Momentary, so it would be OK in one direction, but not the other. You'd want Momentary/Off/Momentary.

Those would work, and the lighting is isolated from the switching, so that's good as well. For $9 each though the cost for 4 is the same as what I sell the stalks for.

Hey all, I just wanted to thank everyone on this forum. I just did my install of the 4-Button CC. It works perfectly after a little troubleshooting. The only problem is that I just have the wire chillin' in the ECU. I have no idea how long it will stay there, but it stayed in on my 60 mile round trip to/from work. I do not wish to buy the real wire from Toyota, but I will if I must. But I was wondering something: I have a spare wiring harness adapter laying around with the pins kinda like the ones that go in the ECU (I assume), and I was wondering if I can seat those in the ECU for a permanent solution.

They need to be the exact same pins, otherwise the pin latch mechanism will not snap back into place. I sell the ECM pins (with about 2' of wire) for $5 shipped, which is a lot less than the dealer charges.

Hi,

i have try to install this cruise control mod...
But no cruise function...
All switch are okay, i have buy the cc switch, i have connected the switch to the white and the blue wire ( around the purple wire ).
my switch set-up are the same of the tutorial (4 switch with 240, 390 and 910 resistor )

I have buy 2 D3 wire and a A21 connector.

the a21 connector goes to my red wire on my sitch and to the pin1 of the d3 connector.
my black wire goes to pin2 of d3 connector and to the negative.

I start the car, i push on the "on" switch...
at 100Km/h i push on the "set" and nothing happen...

what's wrong?!?:iono:

Do you have an AT or MT?

There is no purple wire near the CCS wire in pin 40 of connector A21. Looking at the connector from the wire entry side, there is a blue wire with silver marks next to it on the left and a brown wire next to it in the next row.

Why did you add pins to D3? You only need to do so if using the OEM stalk, not for using the DIY switch method.

[i-trans]

i have a MT.
this is the reason why i have connect my cc clutch switch on the white and the blue wires (the purple are in the meedle (in the fuse panel under the hood in the conductor side).

why i have connect 2x D3 connector, confusion between 2 diy.....

i go to disconnect the 2x D3 connector, and go to test!

the voltage was okay on my 4 cc switch (12v. when ignition are on).

the 2x D3 connector was my error, it was possible to theses connector cause the malfunction?

OK. That makes more sense.

Being connected to D3 shouldn't cause issues, except that if you are relying on that for the ground of the second wire, it will just be floating, since the other end of the connector is not connected. On you switch array, one side goes to A21-40 and the other to ground.

[i-trans]

i have disconnected the 2 D3 wire.
I have make a road test and it was unsuccessful :cry:
it's the second day i try to make it come true.

this morning i have buy 4 new switch, re-install, re-soldering etc...
i have try with my ccclutch switch and with a jumper...

i have 12v when i put my ignition on, and 0 when it off.

and my "on" button was 1 red wire go to A21 pin 40, and the other to the kick panel (ground).

when i press "set" "resume" or "cancel" the voltage is flickering between 12 and 0v for 1 sec. approx.

i don't know what is the problem at this time...

Can you post a pic of your switch/resistor wiring?

[i-trans]

give me 2 minutes and i will post!

[i-trans]

This is my 4 switch.
momentary n.o

[CTScott]

That looks fine. And, the negative wire goes to a good chassis ground?

[i-trans]

the ground goes to the kick panel on the driver side

[CTScott]

OK. So if you measure between the positive and negative wires, you see 12V with the ignition on, and if you hold the ON/OFF button, it stays at 0V?

Also, the clutch switch is adjusted so that it is fully pressed when the clutch is up?

[i-trans]

yes, 0v when i press the On/Off button.
the clutch switch was ajusted and fully pressed.

[CTScott]

OK. And just to verify:

The top switch is on/off 0 You press that once.

The switch on the right (which becomes the left when installed) is the set button. You get to 25MPH or higher and press that one (having already pressed the top one above).

[i-trans]

exactly!

when i start my car i press the "on" button, when i go faster than 45Km/h i try to press "set" button.

i have try to just press, and keep my finger pressing this button about 3-5sec.

no result!

the clutch control switch has polarity?
the red wire on my ccswitch goes to the blue or the white wire in the fuse box in the driver side of the hood?
or nothing important?

The clutch switch is not polarized. The only other thing I can think of is that the switches are poor quality and that rather than making a clean connection when pressed that they "bounce" causing multiple ons and offs with a single press.

[i-trans]

the switchs seem to be okay, no pulse when i push button.

i fugure that the problem are my cc clutch switch...
if my cc clutch switch are not okay, the cc are not functionnal.

i have try with the jumper in the fusebox, and unfortunately i have the same result...

i really don't know what is my cc problem, but i want to resolve that soon!

The only way to tell if the switches are bouncing is with an oscilloscope. A voltmeter is too slow.

Also, are you absolutely sure that you are on the correct pin on the ECM?

[i-trans]

yes!
my connector was on the pin 40, i have make a re-check, and it was on the good pin.
For the switch, i have tested at this time with 14 switchs, buy at different store.
i have tested the 4 switchs mode, and the 2 switchs mode.
Actually i have 2 switch untested, i try these 2 switch after the lunch.
If the test are not okay, i pass an order for the stalk, or i pass an order for to momentary switch on an internet store....

[i-trans]

i have try my last switchs, and nothing new...no cruise control!
on my first switch i have 12,35volts.
when i push on, i have 0volts.
on the second switch i have 8,35volts.
when i push on this second switch i have 0volts.

i have 2 resistors ( 1x240 and 1x390 in serie ).

what are the best way to test my cruise control clutch switch?
i suppose that is my problem. (i have try with the jumper but, no result)
i have take a read of this 2 wires (in the fusebox, and i have no read (0volts)
when i push the clutch, i have no read ...)

if i read the white wire behind the puple wire, with the other blue wire, in diagonal i have a read of 12,33 volts.
I suppose that my blue wire behind the purple wire, are no voltage on in.

[CTScott]

That looks fine for a test setup. Snap a pic of your clutch switch wiring at the fuse box.

[i-trans]

this is my clutch switch wiring in the fusebox

[CTScott]

You're in the right place. The blue wire needs to have +12V to it in order for cruise to be enabled.

[i-trans]

the blue wire have +12v when i release the clutch in link with the white wire?

because i don't have any power on my clutch switch.

my wire are clutch switch +/- to fusebox (white and blue wires )

[CTScott]

because i don't have any power on my clutch switch.

Correct - When the clutch is not pressed the blue gets 12V from the white and when it is pressed it opens and the blue has 0V.

[i-trans]

and this cruise control have a fuse anywhere, in case of shortcut ??
what's happen if utilise N.C switch for testing purpose?
in exemple the first switch are N.C (pin 40 to this switch) , and for the second switch i utilize an N.O switch?
the n.c switch when i push on it its "ON" when i repress on it its "off".
and the second switch its "set"

No fuse - This is just an analog input to the ECM.

A NC switch won't work. The ECM expects to see the input float and then get pulled down to a specific voltage range for it to register. I have reverse engineered the Toyota diagnostics CAN Bus comm to read the cruise control switch state from the ECM, so I can watch how the ECM responds to the inputs.

Have you measured your resistors to see exactly what they read resistance wise. Sometimes you can get a batch that are really at the end of their tolerance band.

[i-trans]

i don't know what is the way to test resistors...
12v on a side of the resistor and read the other side?

I just purchased the clutch switch from Toyota but it did not include any connector or wires. It just has two prongs. How would I go about attaching two wires to the prongs?

Toyota also gave me screws which are too big for the cruise stalk. Which screws do I need?

On the clutch switched that I ship to people with 06-08's, I solder wires to the two pins and then individually heat shrink them, and then heat shrink over both as a strain relief. You could also use some very small female spade terminals, if you are not comfortable with soldering to them.

The screws are M5-.80

With the giant grommet on the driver's side, where the main cable harness goes through, there are two small nipples that you can poke through. You have to first go through with something sharp, and then the wire will feed through.

For DIY cruise control

When drilling 1-1/8” opening in the steering wheel trim/cover, I used small square of black winds surfing jacket neoprene (just to cover up guts of the switch) and then used sliced windshield washer hose to finish the edge. What can I say , my wife’s attention to details is admirable.

Great, quick read. I have question, is the clutch switch just necessary if you do not want the engine to rev out during gear changes while the CC is engaged? I am planning a 1600 mile trip and don't know if I have time to purchase the clutch switch ass.

What kind of wire is necessary, I have a radioshack and a homeimprovement store nearby (and a wallyworld,) I don't know if any of them sell durable wiring-- maybe the home improvement store for inwall wiring.

Did your radioshack, local parts store actually carry resistors?

Any advice from someone who has completed the install is great!

Thanks :)

The clutch switch can be bypassed, but it's pretty easy to forget and touch the clutch while in cruise control mode.

For the wire, any stranded 18 to 20 AWG wire is fine.

Radioshack will probably have the resistors as part of a multipack.

If you want to do the OEM stalk method I have all of the parts (stalk, clutch switch, ECM pin, etc.) on hand and can ship overnight or two day if you need them quickly. Here's the link to my DIY for the OEM stalk method:

thanks for the package deal :) but I think i'll wait on the stalk, not sure if I want to spend so much on that yet, nor do I want to dive in to changing the steering wheel stuff so close to my trip. I think I'll hit up radioshack today for the resistors. I have some extra 18awg speaker wire I guess I'll test out unless you suggest not to?
for the jumper, should I just drop in the wire and solder it to the correct locations. I'll probably eventually get the clutch switch but I just want to be able to turn it on and off really, for now.

out of curiosity how much is your kit? :)

oh yeah, from past experience: does braking automatically disengage the CC (since it is ECU i would say yes)?

For the temporary clutch switch bypass, you can either solder in a jumper or find a small male spade that will fit tightly into the connector along side of the pin.

Kit pricing:

CC Stalk with wiring and mounting screws: $40
ECM connector pin: $5
Connector D3 pins: $5
MT CC clutch switch: $15

quick question on those momentary switches: I found a few at radioshack but they are low-amp rated (like .5A).. I noticed the referenced digikey switches are around 3 amps. what's the max rated amperage I should shoot for?

i found a few packs of resistors at the local radioshack, but none at 240. looks like i'll be soldering them together to make 240. they're rated at 5% tolerance, if combining them would the tolerance inherently go up?

Any momentary switch is fine. You are switching an analog input to a microcontroller, so the current is negligible.

For the resistors the tolerance means how far they can be off, so a 100 ohm, 5% can be 95 to 105 ohms. Since it is a plus or minus rating, chaining them together means that they can cancel each other out, or add to the percentage off in either direction. If you have a multimeter, you can measure the actual resistance of each.

thx for the quick reply. what then would be the permitted resistance ratings to get this to work? I plan on just using 2 switches, listed is 240 and 390-- how close should i be to that?

[scape]

actually looking back at the wiring for two buttons, one single resistor of 630ohm seems like it would work-- between the two buttons on positive; still not sure about the set-cc pushbutton resistances range though

[CTScott]

thx for the quick reply. what then would be the permitted resistance ratings to get this to work? I plan on just using 2 switches, listed is 240 and 390-- how close should i be to that?


You can use any value within these ranges:
216 to 264 ohms for one between resume and on/off
351 to 426 ohms for the one between set and resume
819 to 1001 ohms for the one between set and cancel

For the two button method, a single resistor 567 to 690 ohms can replace the 240 and 390 ohm resistors.

For current rating of the resistors, like the switches, it really doesn't matter, so 1/8 W, 1/4 W, 1/2 W, etc. are all fine.

[scape]

ah ok great, that helps big time in finding a proper resistor. why is it necessary to use the different clutch switch assembly, can the original clutch start-switch assembly be tapped in to?

No, they are two different switch functions. The existing one detects that the pedal is fully pressed for starting and the CC one detects the initial press of the clutch pedal.

oh but i should mention you'll need a variety of butt splices and extra wire ... i wish i could remember the gauges but its all around 16 to 22. depening on what wire you use to ground you might need a different gauge lug for that too.

I am from Egypt (middle east). I have seen this DIY years ago but never had the guts to do it. I am a noob when it comes to car mechanics and also afraid of electronics :D. I don't know if my car has cruise function. To summarize, I need to check if PIN 40 has 12 volts when ignition on. Wish me luck everybody. I hope that the car has the function so I can do it, my 300 kms daily route to work would be so much better. I think that toyota must have installed it in all the cars not specific to a certain segment. When I first bought the car it had no rear speakers and when I bought the speakers and during installation, I found out that all the wiring is done and all I have to do it place the speakers and that was it. Do I need to remove the steering wheel to get to the D3 connector??? :d

Unfortunately your Yaris does not support the OEM cruise control. For 06-11 Yaris, only US/Canada ones with the 1.5L engine have it built into the ECM.

I really wished I have it. So just for my own curiouisity which one is the D3 connector where is it exactly

It is on the bottom of the steering column. My complete DIY shows how to get to it:

Just installed the two switch DIY cruise control on my '07 Yaris Sedan. Can't believe it works! Not that I had any doubts in the DIY instructions. I have zero experience in electronics. I just bought the parts (<$10!), installed as instructed, and I now have cruise control!

Thanks so much for this thread and instructions. I am a traveling salesman with a four state territory. The cruise will make my travels SO much easier

Hi Scott,

If I don't have cruise control in my 08 yaris (M5) (New Zealand New) hatch how can I fit CC ?
Cheers.

For your car you would need a complete aftermarket system, since your ECM does not have the functionality built in.

Hi All,

I have a 2007 Vitz JDM 1.0L can the Cruise control mod work for my vehicle....

[mf4361]

Since this thread is revived, I have to say, It worked on my 2007 Sedan (Canada)!! Started out with no tool, I spend ~$15 on it. Compare to, let say, OEM Cruise from dealership its almost nothing. Thanks CTScott for the awesome DIY writeup and everyone's help.

Now I need to work on making aesthetically look good.

[johntam]

Thanks guys for the detailed instructions for the cruise control installation for my '07 \yaris. It works awesome. J&T

Hi All

I tried this today on my December 2006 YR. Is there a way to tell if you've made a connection to pin40 on A21? Is there a test resistance to ground or another pin for example?

Mine also does not have the blue wire populated in the fuse box for the clutch switch either. Does this mean it's a no go? There is a pin at the bottom (just not a wire coming out of the plug), which I tried grounding, but couldn't get CC to work.

Thoughts any of you gurus? :) :help:

For the pin 40 test, measure the voltage on the wire with the ignition switch in the on position. You should see 12 V on that pin.

The missing blue clutch switch wire is potentially a bad sign. Did you verify that there was not a connector taped to the harness, just above the clutch pedal?

Will check pin potential - didn't look for connector at the time, but I don't have one.

Is the clutch switch required? Is it's purpose to disengage the cruise when the clutch is pressed in?

The clutch switch is required for MT cars. The switch works the opposite of the clutch start switch, which is why it is a separate switch. It does disable CC when the clutch is touched, to prevent revving.

Thanks for the quick reply. My dad wants cruise in his 07 MT LB yaris. I'll get the part ordered.

I stock all of the cruise control parts at less than dealer or mail order prices, if you need anything.

Hi Scott,

I have the 2009 yaris Sol 100HP MMT transmission I will appreciate your help. could you check if it possible to install the cruise control on my car? :iono: I can send the VIN number ...

Unfortunately no European made Yaris prior to 2012 had cruise control. It was not until the 3rd generation with the 1.33L engine that Toyota added it.

I installed CC on my 09 Yaris in the summer of 09 according to CT Scotts instructions. It has worked flawlessly ever since.

I work building electronic devices for space and military applications. I told my supervisor about the CC mod in my Yaris and he looked alarmed.

"Paul, I cant BELIEVE you are modifying your brand new car by what some idiot on the internet is telling people to do!" :laugh:

[invader166]

I also just finished installing the CC mod on my '09 Yaris according to CTScott's instructions 2 days ago. I am still baffled by how easy it was to enable this function.
Before, when I went to a dealership to ask if they could do it, they said they didn't even want to touch it.
"If it didn't come with it originally, we can't do anything about it." I would love to go back there now and just laugh at their faces.
I'll post some photos once I label all the buttons.

Thanks again CTScott! You are trully a Yaris mod master! :bow::bow::bow:

CTScott is def the man here. He is "THE DON" or should I say "THE SCOTT" of yarisworld. If he ever traded all three of his Yaris prototypes in for some other car...Yarisworld would not be as good as it is today..

[1972Dart]

Thanks a million to CTScott for all the help on my 07 Yaris! Cruise control works great!

Hi CTScott
I try to instal CC on my yaris 06 , but it did not work !!

I have found several at the local pick your part yards.

CT Scott, I will trade stalks for wire harness for cc.

Has anyone installed CCS on the Toyota Yaris 2018 facelift

[yarisa07hatchi]

where can i get ecu wire for cruise and wiring harness for clutch switch help

[yarisa07hatchi]

where can i get firewall piece i lost it

[Kasbien]

So I read through the entire thread but didn't find a solution my issue (some similar cases but no resolution).

I have an 07 sedan, auto transmission, Canadian car. I went to perform this mod today, only to find that I have a factory wire (pin 40) at the ECM connection but no wire at the D3 connection under the steering wheel. No CC lights in the cluster either. Car has been dealer serviced since day 1.

Anyone else figured this one out?

EDIT:
Found the solution in another thread. The pin 40 wire seizes to exist after the firewall connection (AD4) on the drive side of the vehicle. Weird! See attached photo. Hope this helps someone out because it sure as hell gave me headache.
