^ it would certainly benefit Toyota from a sales standpoint, but Toyota is just like any other major business: cost conscious. This is why we have a LOT of hard plastic inside, and why power windows and locks are still an option. The Yaris was meant to be a cheap, fuel efficient car. By that philosophy, it wouldn't make sense for Toyota to put a $98 control stalk (that's the MSRP for this part) in every Yaris. There's millions of Yarii in the world, so it would add up real quick.

I'm moving this to the DIY forum where it would be more appropriate.
Not to rain on your parade guys, but I have not seen anywhere in the technical manuals that there is any kind of built-in programming/circuitry for cruise control. I may very well be wrong of course

BTW, here is the manual if you want to take a look. It's for a sedan but I'm assuming it will be the same for the hatch. |

Well after reading a bit more, it would seem the ECU has to have the cruise programming in it for it to function. Now I am confused, time for sleep LOL

By the way, if this is true I wish I had told the dealership to remove the stalk and cut the price by $300. I rarely use the cruise control... Cheers! M2 |
