  1. Do you have electric middle row seats? If not, you'll have a free 12v connector near the bottom of the b pillars, you'll be to remove the trim, but you could essentially hide the router behind the trim or beside the drivers seat
  2. There is no 'reset' in the official Toyota process. At most, you'd connect via the obd in order to do a transmission fluid temperature check.
  3. The dome fuse is the correct one. There is no relay. What you will have is several other fuses working in conjunction with the ECU, and the ECU in some cases provides the ground logic. I've attached the illumination wiring schematic. IL.pdf
  4. From Japanese auction sites, expect to pay around £50 for a cd ROM, or slightly more for printed one. It will be in Japanese only. Alternatively, you can use an online translated one. I'll pm you a link
  5. No problem. As for parts, if you use a site like amayama, you can type your chassis number in, and get Toyota part numbers. You can either then order from the site, or use those part numbers in most car part centres, for the main servicable parts. For example, today i walked into my local parts site and bought front and rear brake pads, air, cabin and oil filters, off the shelf. You can give the numbers to a Toyota parts centre, too, and they will order them in for you.
  6. Its the same tech you can get in Phillips hairdryers. It is part of the climate control, and controls the ioniser. Helps to remove pollutants/pollen.
  7. It's on the right side of the map light area behind a little slotted grill. It works quite well for me, maybe you need to increase the mic volume on headunit
  8. You can set the behaviour of auto locking and unlocking doors based on shift selector on P or D, via a simple combination of holding the lock or unlock control whist depriving ignition on, in the relevant gear. It's in the user manual
  9. I'm no help here, fortunately i have only ever needed a wheel bearing on an older Toyota to be replaced. I need to find an AC specialist, I've started to get the green flashing light of ac doom.
  10. You can download a preconfigured virtual machine for use on windows. You can find clear instructions on the Toyota ih8mud forum https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/how-to-techstream-in-5-minutes.1034923/.
  11. Are you able to access the files? They are on Google drive, but your btinternet email cannot be added as a trusted address. Hopefully the direct link works
  12. Could be aftermarket alarm or wireless door entry. What keyfobs do you have?
  13. What? Would be a keyhole drivers side Post photo of drivers handle, previous owner may have fitted a blanking plate that is removable
  14. Left column is front, right column is rear.
  15. Well done. The rear fog cheapo switch triggers me everyone i see one, so glad you prioritised that 😂
  16. I found this DA-G2.Standard MOST25 - mObridge UK https://share.google/HhuTvhUiKk9jZjEH6 I can't recall if the alphard uses most25 or most50. Perhaps this company can advise?
  17. Diy route, you can buy (about £ 160) from AliExpress or alibaba, a generic Toyota compatible box. The one i bought a few years ago used the phono input/aux input and i used the kit to splice into the touch screen on the headunit (there is a small switch that flips between the box input and the original headunit input, for navigating around the screen. I've not found the same supplier, but there are a few around.
  18. I don't think I've seen an adaptor that takes the MOST signal from the headunit and converts to an rca. The closet i have seen is an amp bypass adaptor, or the converter you linked that allows you to retain the amplifier (both assume headunit replacement) The other auxiliaries like auto parking and cameras and rear screen use GVIF ( gigabit video interface) There must exist an adaptor that converts most to RCA, maybe another Toyota model?
  19. The 20 series doesn't use fibre optic, although aliexpress refer to it as an optical converter. Most doesn't use the canbus, it's a separate network. The headunit does all the work, so of you are replacing it, it's irrelevant if you are bypassing the amplifier. That adaptor is used for aftermarket headunits to convert their analogue outputs into a most signal to the amplifier. If you are removing the headunit and amplifier, you don't need that converter
  20. Link to 20 series headunit/parking assist manual https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1E9cb8v6Ue/
  21. Dashboard illumination control. Odo memory switch. Camera view selector ( switches between front, rear, and side/front) Next row Traction control, rear roof illumination brightness toggle. Parking sensors on/off Next row. Rear foglights. Front light auto turning mode ( your dipped beams move to the left and right when cornering. Wing mirror fold control ( centre position will fold and unfold with locking and unlocking doors.) switches to the left. Auto parking (i can add a link to a translated English manual that covers this and the headunit) - yes, this model can parallel and reverse park automatically Sliding doors power ( to switch them into manual mode, if want to for some reason. The toggle button is aftermarket, may be linked to additional interior lighting or daylight running lights, you'll have to check.
  22. Not sure to understand the point. This kit is to enable a non oem unit to connect to the oem amplifier. If you are bypassing the amplifier, you don't need this kit. Maybe state what it is exactly you are trying to do? If you want to use the connections to the oem speakers directly, the sockets at the amplifier are wired like this. If you want to see the block diagram for how the most system connects to the sub-components, use this file Headunit block diagram.pdf
  23. You can also use the button on the steering wheel to select the eco display on the dash, so you can see how hard you are accelerating. The eco button is really just the opposite of a 'sports' button that some Toyota have, it just softens the accelerator response. I turned off the eco light as it was distracting flashing on and off.
