For your MT you're going to need the clutch switch as well. It's OK to bypass it for testing, but for normal use you really should have it in place.
Anyone else from the New England region interested in doing theirs? We could do a DIY cruise control workshop. |

I may move the led I have mounted next to the switches up into the guage cluster before I install the LED module CTScott has provided. Make it look a little more stock-ish. Also scott, if my LED is too bright I can just add a resistor of my choice in series and that'll dim it down some correct? And also I'm going to just buy the stock clutch switch for 20$ from the dealer, rather than try to fix the frankenstein I put together :)

I would like a workshop as well, or a well written DIY on the whole process with lots of pictures. The information on how to do this is rather scattered over 24 pages, especially if you have an 07-08 5mt.

Well, we're up to two for the workshop. Would you be willing to drive down to Connecticut for it?

I am also willing to help out if people want to drive to Oneida, NY. I see that Bravejus is just up in Plattsburgh.

Well it would depend on schedules meshing for sure. Oneida is 3.5-4 hour drive.

So I have an 08 LB 5mt. What will I need to make the cruise work. I want to go the homemade switch version. Do I need a certain voltage switch? The radio shack across the street has illuminated switches for 2.99 each. What resistors.
So I have to run a wire from the # 40 pin on the ecm to said switches correct? What about grounding etc. I really want to have cruise this weekend. I have to start commuting 105 miles each way for work. |

Brave I have an '08 LB MT too I would go the stalk method...you really need to know WTF you are doing to go the switch route, and there will be a lot of work involved. CTScott makes it sound easier than it is I'm sure, I run the electric grid for a living and am JUST following along with his LED and resistors method.

Im going the stalk switch route, however doing the wiring myself, like nickhjort, just need to find the time

when I finally get around to doing it, I will make one, however it will be the stalk method, since I like more of an oem look.

Take a look at my DIY Cruise Control Thread for the switch and resistor info: http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/sho...ght=diy+cruise Basically, any normally open, momentary switch will be fine. The switches are switching 12VDC at negligible current. For an 07-08: In the Steps mentioning Connector D3, the blue (CCS) and brown (ECC) wires are replaced with a wire from the red wire of the switches to CCS on the ECM (pin #40) and a wire from the black wire of the switches to a ground point (a bolt connecting a ring terminal to the bare metal of the dash support structure for example). For MT on 07-08: The clutch switch (Toyota part number: 88280-14030) is required. A wire is run from each of the two terminals of the switch to the terminals of the under hood fuse panel connector shown in nickhjort's picture below (either switch terminal to either connector terminal is fine). http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/f...t/CIMG6560.jpg The 07-08 will not have a cruise control on indicator unless something like the module I developed is used. You can not simply use an illuminated switch, as the on/off switch is a momentary switch, which toggles the function on or off. |
