Swap Indicator and Wiper Stalks

[OldTrouserFace]

Hi. 
 

We’ve had our Alphard for about 6 weeks now and really enjoying it. 
 

Has anyone seen any posts about whether it is possible to swap the indicator stalk from the right side to left side of the steering wheel (and the wipers to go the other way)?

Is there any aftermarket option? I think that other Toyota models in the UK/EU do have them with the indicators on the left, but not sure if any of them might work with the ECU on the Alphard. 
 

It would be amazing if anyone had any pointers. 
 

Many thanks,

Josh

Not the first Japanese car i had which had the same way around and with auto box it makes no sense to me to overload my left hand with added function . Possibly avensis could share design bit you will find hard to persuade someone to part with their money just to see if it works .

you could buy the russian/chinese spec stalks, they were reversed due to left hand drive.

 

In fact, discovering the russian stalks is what led me down the path of getting an upgraded light stalk that had front AND rear fog light switches on it.

 

if you havr the toyota EPC software, you can pull the correct part numbers by searching for the chassis codes GGH20L, ATH20L, ANH20L instead of GGH20W, ANH20W and ATH20W

Check these codes:

Hi Chris and Kristoff. 
Thank you both for replying! I’m sorry not to acknowledge sooner, but I hadn’t checked back for a while. 

Chris, I will take a look at those parts and compare to the ones we have. I don’t think we have the fog lights on the existing stalks.

 

Thanks again,

Josh

Well, I have something that fits “LEXUS CT200H COMBINATION SWITCH STALK 1.8 HYBRID 8414042111 8465248190 2014-2020”

 

Unfortunately it is not a simple plug and play. While the connectors were the right blocks, it would need rewiring and think that’s a little beyond my skills!

 

Hey ho…

I tried using a UK spec CT200H stalk since the JDM 2014 Alphard has the same stalks as the JDM CT200H. It did not work. The high beams stayed on and only the left indicator worked. The pin out is probably different on the UK spec cars. I guess it would be possible to re-pin the connectors.

The only way would be to repin the connectors, as each vehicle is different.  There should be some wiring diagrams on the manual section i put in last year.

 

If not I can spool up my virtual machine with Toyota's wiring on it and have a look.
