havent found any info about it.
by the way. just now i looked in the 2007 manual - cruise controll. and its exactly as described. also has the plugs as shown. the same wires. and need the same resistors.
i think it will work the same as my dealer said: "its exactly the same vehicle. 2007 2008 2009 no changes what so ever" he was right.

the post is for AT and MT... but here we have only Robotic Transmission... so i think i'll consider robotic transmission as an automatic transmission... hope it will work.

any advice guys?

Does your 07 have the brown and blue wires in the D3 connector?

Also, does it have the cruise indicator on the combination meter?

If it doesn't have the D3 wires, then it will require the work that nickhjort did on page 16 of the other thread. Once all of the trial and error is sorted out in the other thread we'll put together a DIY for Yaris which need the additional work.

well. this is ehat i have.
thats my D3 connector. i'm sure its the right one because is tried to honk after disconnecting it.
i do have a brown and blue wire but seems they are not in the mentiond above terminals. or is it?
click on the images to see in supersize





and there are somepictures of the display. i couldent find the cruise controll light or set light. maybe you'll find.






i did manage to pull out the A21 connector to see if there is the specific wire inside but got stuck with the L shape plastic wich cover the wires? there is a way to pull it out without breking it?

help please

mariann,
It's pretty straight forward. Just cut the ziptie at the top of the cover VERY CARFULLY! Do not cut any of the wires, obviously, or you will be SOL big time. After cutting the ziptie, there are two clips on the left side of the cover. push them in and lift. Then you will see two hooks on the back of the cover, life the cover and pull so that hooks release. And to reinstall the cover just do the opposite. You will have to have a ziptie to replace the one you cut. If you don't have a ziptie, the clips and hooks will hold the cover in place, but the wires undernieth will be hanging loose. Here's some pics...hope they help.

thanks nickhjort. you really helped me.

any advice to my previuse post? can i connect the swich assembly directly to some wires on D3 connector or i'll need to run a wire through the firewall directly to the ECM an nichhjort did. the model is SOL 2007 liftback/hatchback european style(located in israel)

Does you SOL have radio controls on the steering wheel? If so, I believe that the three wires shown in your picture are for that purpose. In your picture, Pin 1 and Pin are empty, so you will need to wire to the ECM, as nickhjort did.

i dont have radio controll or shift controll on my steering wheel. the only thing i got is the horn and the airbag
i wonder what thoes wire for.

anyway. i hope i'll buy the swiches and resistors today and even install them (or tomorow). seems really easey. i'm preety good with wires throught the firewall, did it befor.

wish me luck
