Grey wire mod

Some people just like to

Btw, I did this mod last weekend, utilizing THIS thread. I'm thankful for all the info readily available and for the great guys and gals of Tacoma World. Glad to be a part of it

 

Jeezus Christ !!! its a joke moron GTFO , if you get all butthurt about this you aint gonna last

Oh & please tell me how a forum works !!!

Where the fuck did this whiny little bitch baby come from anyway ???

 

my locker light blinks i noticed some ppls light stays on..what does this mean?

 

Means theres a good chance you aren't locked brother....

ABS goes off system (to the rear at least) RR diff goes solid, no blinks

 

x2 RR Diff light should be solid

 

DOOMSDAY!!! Reminds me of the moron last year who got rid of all his assets in light of that day, now i wonder who will do the same at the end of this year.

Relevant = what i hear that's common is you may need to drive a few feet forward or reverse for the light to become solid. IMO if yours stays blinking you may have a code red.

 

I opened up the connections on the E locker to clean them up and there was condensation in it....i live in the desert, no rain. Is there anything i can do myself to fix it?

 

Grab your moms blowdryer and go to work

 

yea that was a dumb question...i got it fixed though and i did the grey wire mod while i was at it

 

Good to know - its simple and easy mod which makes it fun to test how far 2wd will go

 

About to try this mod! I'll let you know how it goes..

 

Well I successfully completed the mod on the first try! Super excited for the desert test tomorrow. As the 3rd owner of the truck I don't have the owner's manual, can anyone tell me the safe/max speed while having it locked in 2wd & in 4hi? Thanks guys! Great write up, super easy to do...

 

I have no idea how it works with a man. trans. but would imagine you wouldn't want to go over 40 mph or 50mph in the dirt/sand , obliviously not to use on pavement, not sure but common sense always goes far...

 

Took the truck out today, worked like a charm! I only used it in sand dune type areas to test it, I woulld never try it on pavement. I read somewhere that the prerunners also have a locker, does that sound accurate? The main reason I was asking about speed while locked is because of the warning sticker on the door, it says not to operate the locker over 5mph. That just seemed like a low speed if running in 2wd or 4hi. I think in 2wd w/locker you just get stuck a little further down the road!

 

So on the grey wire mod, when you cut the wire and attach another wire do you just leave the cut grey wire in the number 8 slot? or what?

 

just put electrical tape over the end.

 

So just take the new wire and crimp it then use it as a ground? I know this is very easy just don't want any 4wd problems

 

When you cut the wire -
1 end is used to add a ground wire to it.
The other end is not needed, therefor just put some electrical tape over the end and feel free to zip tie or secure it.

 

The gray wire needs to be grounded out on the end going into the computer (where you unplug from). The other end I used electrical tape. After taking it out and using it everything works normal.
