Also, I have a couple of the stalks with the wire and the screws for $40 shipped, which is less than half of that price.

how long have you had those? I could've used an awesome deal like that last year!

About two months ago a friend of mine got me a few at dealer cost.

I have been really busy and did not have any chance to install my cruise control since I bought my OEM stalk from ebay (like months ago). I finally find a weekend to do this thing. I just want to make sure I get the set-up right before I break into my car.

I have a 2008 LB Yaris.

1. I first cut off the red+black wire clip at the end of the stalk

2. I see the "Spiral Connector Repair Terminals" in the parts requirement. I wonder if I really need it, if I treat the stalk = diy switch/button. Can I hook it up like in Fig. 1?

3. I think I will get "ECM repair terminal" for Pin 40. I know CTScott sells them. Since I finally find a free weekend to do it, I need that part sooner. So, I wonder if I can buy that from Toyota Dealership and get it on the same day? Or can I just get one from the junk yard? Or if Advanced Auto / Auto zone / radioshack sell them?? I am just afraid if I don't do it this weekend, it will be months after I can do it again.

4. I thought about just insert the wire into Pin 40. But, I am scared it will not be secured. How far do I need to insert the wire into the A21 ECM? Does the ECM terminal has some clip to hold all the wires in place? Anyone here did it without the "repair pin"??

Thanks again for all the help!!

1/2. You don't really want to clip the connector. If you are planning on mounting the stalk in the steering wheel, then it needs to go through the spiral cable.

3. If you want to use the pins, I can ship them today via priority mail for $5 more (bringing the total to $15 for the three pins), so you would have them in hand before the weekend. I believe that the dealer price on them is $12 each, so you would still be saving quite a bit, and I don't think that dealers typically stock them.

4. People have done it this way, but it does not always make good connection and is not sealed, so it will allow moisture to enter the connector.

I don't have any of the wiring diagrams or manuals for the Chinese Yaris, but as far as I know, only the US/Canada 1.5L Yaris ECMs have it built in.

Look at the first page of this thread for links that show the installation of the OEM cruise stalk. From your pictures, you don't have the 1NZ-FE engine, which as far as I know, is the only one which has the ECM preprogrammed for cruise control.

Scott.. Would you happen to have a photo the the top half of AD4 connector as I got the connector off the white mount, but since it is a bit tight, I am having a hard time trying to find the latch to unhook the two halfs?..

Thanks Scott!

More detail on the connector's location (this is the male side {which is on the bottom when in place in the car} of the junction connector that is part of the dash harness):
Attachment 39848

This is how the male pin gets inserted into the connector:

He makes it looks so easy but then I realized, after spending time on two threads here, that he doesn't touch on any of the engine work that also needs to be done.

I have an 07 Sedan/Automatic and live in Canada.

I know tons of people have asked this question and hate to do this to you guys but...what parts do I need for MY car?

Any help would be much appreciated!

That's why I just put this together. This is the detailed soup to nuts instructions for all aspects of installing OEM cruise control on any Yaris from 2006-2011:

Installed the CC on my CND version 2008 Sedan and all went well, I want to give big thanks to every one and especially Scott for all of his great help!

I installed the OEM CC stalk and ran the CC signal line from D3 to AD4, getting to AD4 was not too bad, just trying to work in the small area under the dash was the only challenge. Grounded the GND line from D3 was no issue.

I recommend the up grade to anyone needing CC

Thanks again to Scott for all his great help and supply of connectors.

Hi, all. Newbie with a 2009 3dr liftback automatic and the dumb question of the day:

What parts of this cruise control installation, if any, would void the warranty?

ibanezjeepguy · 03-28-2011, 09:41 PM

none...

Aetre · 03-29-2011, 12:03 PM

Sweet, thanks.

ibanezjeepguy · 03-29-2011, 07:47 PM

as long as you're adding toyota OE parts everything should be fine.... its when you start adding in your own home-brew stuff that things become grey
