What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Alright so I got a bit of a problem that I’ve been noticing that maybe I can get an answer on. For the past I’d say 2 weeks, I’m just driving along bumping to music and my dash and radio screen seem to restart without any reason. I’ve noticed when I’m running my interior lights and my DRL ditch lights and fogs it happens more often. I haven’t had a problem with truck not starting. I don’t know how old my battery is, open to suggestions, it might just be the battery but idk of maybe I’m grounding somewhere with my wiring harness that’s causing it to power off.

 

There are lots of kinds,I have those specific ones so can speak only to them. What do you want to see?

 

Yes it is an RJ-45. I ran a Cat8 cable from the back of it, under the center console, and out to my Midland which is under the seat. Might look into other mounting places, but it works for now.

$40 from AirOnBoard. Honestly there’s a fair amount of play in the plug, and I wish I had only spent $12. The AirOnBoard rep I’ve been talking to about it hasn’t been very helpful.

 

based on this, I am deciding to just dremel a hole into one of my dead buttons, and use the extension that I have already

Beautiful Truck, Access Cab, it just doesn't get any better!!

 

A Dirty Tacoma is a Happy Tacoma!!! I see yours is smiling!!!

 

Had my install actually finished well, I would try and dissuade you. But between their product and their customer service, I say go for your method. Besides, who needs the factory blank switches anyways? Good luck with the install!

 

Ya know, you could take some time and clean that truck up a little, (jk) looks very very nice!!!!

 

Haha thanks!

 

Did you go back and check all of your connections, including hot wire to the battery and solid grounds? Make sure your relays are fully seated as well as fuses.

 

Got my shifter modified and spotted. Dual cases are in. Dropped off my driveshaft to have it shortened and go one piece without carrier bearing.

 

You could try a salvage yard and see what they might sell the piece for.

 

True. I was meaning to take a few when I got on the trails, but that hasn't happened yet. The truth of the matter is it doesn't look all that impressive becasue, well, it isn't supposed to. Although I did get a compliment on my light setup from a kid at the Chick-fil-A drive through, and another kid at the car wash today didn't think my rack would fit through (it does). The lights didn't move around at all; this was quite satisfying.

 

Twinning ish lol

 

Some nice trucks yall got there

 

What headlight bulbs do you use? They look fantastic

 

I have the Philips 150+ with a HD wiring harness.

 

Yeah I definitely need to upgrade...
These are some cheap ones I got on Amazon too. LOTS of wobble.

 

Buy Cali raised ones they are like 80 bucks Canadian rupies and are solid!
