  1. Hi, recently I have fitted a cruise control stalk on my 2012 vellfire and I had the battery disconnected during the fitting. Now I have to reset/relearn the throttle and I am not sure what is the procedure for this. Does anyone know? I searched on the forum, but couldn't find anything helpful. Thank you!
  2. Because I had to disconnect the battery, I have to reset the throttle now. Does anyone know how exactly? I have seen a few ways, but not sure which one is the correct way! @Chris.ac, maybe you know?
  3. Today I had my cruise control stalk delivered, the instalation took me 15 min. Once I removed the airbag I noticed that I already have the connector for the cruise control there, was just a matter of plug and play. Test it and all works great. All is left is to cutout the cover. This is the stalk I bought: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/114705087244?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=ToA0FS2lTH2&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=4VUOd8_gQG6&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  4. Hi Gerald, thank you for yor help. I managed to find the wires for the steering wheel controls, this is the last one with the head unit. The unit is a TIE124. I searched in the manual that was in the box and it is not mentioned.
  5. Thank you Chris, I will fit one in my Vellfire 2012 too!
  6. And this are the error codes that I still get! Any ideas plase?
  7. Hi awesome group of Japanese car lovers! As some of you are aware, I recently purchased a 2012 Vellfire 2.4ltr petrol. The car drives pretty decent for a 12 years old car. I have noticed something that bothers me and I don't know if it's in my head only or is real. When I am driving in manual, the issue doesn't appear. In Drive, when I drive around town/villages, the gearbox always tends to accelerate towards the point where it will change to the next gear. If I try to bearly touch the acceleration, it will drop the RPM to around 1k-1.2k and it will start vibrating and making a squeaking noise outside of the car. As soon as I press the acc a bit harder, the rpm will increase and the noise+vibration are gone. The problem is that I cannot drive constantly at the same speed, I have to press the acc then remove my foot and so on. Before this car Ihad for 6 years a Prius and maybe I am not used with petrol cars, but I doubt it. Could it be something wrong with the gearbox? I remember that when I bouth the car, on the obd2 I had an error related to the angle of the throttle not being able to detect it, but the error is gone now. I have a video from today with the noise and the low rpm . How is your gearbox behaving when driving around town, below 50mph?
  8. And now I see the coin holder!🤣
  9. Behind the phone holder is the air vent and below the buttons is a small compartment!
  10. I have no holes in may dash, I will pot some pics!
  11. I have found that disconnected, in my glove compartment.
  12. The module is already on it's way to me! I will post updates to how it can be fitted to Vellfire/Alphard
  13. I do not know what the ETC unit is, but I don't think so. Sorry!
  14. Butchered is the appropriate adjective for my wires!
  15. Yes, I was thinking that I have to account for that too. Then I looked on that Rav4 forum and on ebay, and the modules are £10. Definitely it is not worth me doing this flip-flop adaptation when I can find it for only a 10er. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/166463511541?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=sODE7-S-RAO&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=4VUOd8_gQG6&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
  16. I will have a look there too, thank you! I was just thinking that since we can close and open the mirrors via a switch, we can attach a parallel circuit with a flip-flop, connected to the signal for locking the doors. I will research a bit more the topic!
  17. You are correct. I looked a bit over the diagrams and I noticed that I have the mirror switch I14. If I place a parallel connection with the relay for locking the doors, it might work. I need to see if the mirrors have power while the locking happens!
  18. I do have a headunit(Xtrons) that has a canbus I/O, next question is on what can line should I tap?
  19. Wow, almost 2 yaers and no reply! I am looking after the same Canbus protocol to enable my reversing guidelines to move with the movement of the steering wheel. Anyone?
  20. Hi Chris, on my Vellfire, I can fild the mirrors by the button, but I do not have memory seat positions. Is there a way to set the mirrors to fold when I lock the car? Something through the obd2 or maybe Techstream?
  21. I bought the car with an android, is a 2012 2.4l petrol vellfire. Is it working with the original headunit?
