Thanks.

2009 Yaris 4Door. Just installed clutch switch last night and connected wiring that was already there; thank you Toyota! If it wasn't required to purchase the D3 connectors, then those wires (like the blue and brown D3 wires that have been pictured) should be there right?

2009 Sedans are a mixed bag. It seems that ones with the power package (locks and windows) have the D3 pins in place and ones without it do not.

Hmmm. That's weird. The DIY installation says they aren't required so hopefully I won't have to buy something else but we'll see I guess. I haven't been able to look at it just yet.

I actually wrote the DIY and since, in selling parts to many people, have learned about the 09 Sedans as being an exception to my rules.

Gotcha. Didn't realize that. Well, I'll check my D3 connector tomorrow and get holla back. Do you sell those pin connectors?

Aetre · 07-25-2012, 11:47 AM

Alrighty. Gonna try this on my '09 hatchback with A/T. All parts ordered...

Just verifying: I don't need wiring from the ECM to the steering column, ECM connector pin, or D3 pins, right? (You'd mentioned the '09 sedans having exceptions; are there any known exceptions for the hatches?)

No. Thus far the 09+ LBs have all had the wiring, so just the stalk with harness and mounting screws (and the clutch switch if MT) is required.

Aetre · 07-25-2012, 12:10 PM

Sweet. Many thanks, and when the parts get here (next week), I'll update on how it goes! (So very much hoping the airbag doesn't explode...)

CodyTheBody · 07-29-2012, 12:42 AM

Do I need to buy the screws that are linked with the cruise control stalk or can I find them at Lowe's? If at Lowe's, what size/type screws are they?

They are just M5 x 10mm long screws. I include them with the stalk, when I sell them.

Aetre · 07-29-2012, 05:09 PM

Parts came early, installation went perfectly. Huzzah!

Many thanks, CTScott.

to you Scott

CodyTheBody · 07-29-2012, 09:18 PM

Awight, so apparently I need the D3 pins. Should I PM you for shipping/purchasing them?

Also, Pin 40 on the ECM is the second hole from the end right? If so, it is taken by a blue wire, which is connected to Pin 6 of AD4 up under the dashboard, according to DIY Guide you wrote.

So what do I do with that blue wire? Take it out? The guide says tap onto it with the ECM A4 connector but I'm not real sure how. Any advice?

Yes, you can PM me.

If your 09 sedan doesn't have the power package, then it makes sense that you have the ECM pin populated, but not the d3 pins. The easiest method to make the connection is to use a tap splice connector, which you slide over the wire, slip the connecting wire in, and squeeze it with a pair of pliers.

CodyTheBody · 07-29-2012, 10:01 PM

Yeah, I bought some of those splices as well.

Ok, sorry man for all the questions; just making sure I get this right. I slide the tap splice over the existing blue wire in Pin 40, then connect the new A21 wire into the splice then squeeze and then carry on to connecting A21 to D3, right? Wanna get it right the first time.

Correct. And, then the other d3 pin gets connected to ground.

I finally got around to installing the parts I ordered from CTScott and they worked a treat!

I noticed the stalk can be very easily scratched, so you might want to leave the plastic bag on until the installation is complete. If you do accidentally scratch it, a little PlastX will have the scratch buffed out in no time. Also, when CTScott says the Torx T30 screws are tight...he is not just joking. Be sure to use a T30 driver that you can put a great deal of force on - a Multi Tool or an L Key won't work as you're sure to break either the tool or your skin.

Thanks again :)
