We have a 2008 Vellfire and both being hearing impaired we find the constant noise drives us mad when having a conversation or listening to our sat nav.  we have to stop and wait for her to finish. 
We have read somewhere that this can be disconnected and even removed does any one know how as MOT Ddue soon and would like to have them the information so they can do this for us. Thank you 

hello patricia i think this can only be done with the right diagnostic software which is techstream my advice is to have a chat with adam at northstar conversions who specialise in imports im sure they will be able to help you.

Thank you. Northstar do indeed remove ETCbox and is booked in for next week so thank you.

My supplier must have done the same.

 

There are a few unconnected wires around and taped up.

 

Thanks for the answer.
