Big problem (I hope not)

Own a 2007 PreRunner. Went though the tutorial to disable the DRL`s. Cut the red/green wire - works. Had the bright idea of a switch to turn them on if I wanted 2. Bought a lighted 3 terminal switch so when the drls are off so is the light on the the switch. After wiring correctly (I thought) it didn`t. Got the the constant 12 volt from the white /blue wire, connected the load or drl wires and ran a ground as the instuctions indicated. Worked but backwards. drls still on durring day and off when driving at night Here`s the bad part - While switching wires to see if I could fix it I got a spark and now the truck won`t start, automatic gear shift won`t go out out park, no radio,blower,windows, but I have all lights but turn signals, door locks. Checked fuses, those that operated the working circuits were ok, those that didn`t, didn`t. Any ideas? I`m in a real bind here

Thanks,
Tim

 

How did you check the fuses? Use a test light if possible. Hook it to a known good ground an check for power at both sides of the fuse.

Did you check the underwood fuse panel as well as the inside fuse panel?

 

You have two fuse blocks, one under the dash and one under the hood.
Some of those systems are protected by fuses at both locations. The shifter not coming out of P indicates that the brake light circuit is dead.

 

Wiring is bachk to stock, used a test light on all fuses, brake lights work. Told you this is weird.

 

how do you have DRL's in an 07? unless they were added aftermarket your truck didnt come with them. i think you fucked your security system up... nice knowing you.

 

The truck came with the drl`s, can see additional wiring added. I bought it new from the dealer and it was like that

 

The ign1 fuse does all the problems u described. Check that fuse

 

Did the battery thing, no go. Possiblbe fusable link but some functions work, some don`t The security system light flashes and I manualy took apart the shift tower and pushed in the plunger to get it into nuetral. Guess I`m off to the dealer, trucks on it`s way. Gotta be a fuse I`m missing.

 

Checket it but I`ll give it another go. THANKS!

 

As said above ,check the IGN1 fuse. Its located under the dash. This is the fuse that is usually blown when you cant get it to come out of park.....along with the other things you mentioned.

 

Didn`t work

 

That`s not a ign. 1 fuse on the panel is it. You`re saying it`s up under the dash where you can`t see it?

 

I know my 07 pre runner did not come with DRL. Are you positive its not an aftermarket set up?

 

Its on the dash panel............on my truck(its a 2011) so might be differant ............The IGN1 is second row down.........third fuse in from the left. Its a red 10 amp fuse. Hope this helps.

 

It is a factory set up, optional. Toyota part # It`s not the headlights that are on but but the turn sig. yellow lights. They`re on all the time. There is a tutorial on this site to istall this harness and disconnect if you want to. Mine came installed new.

 

Thanks for your help - it`s at the dealer now - ugh

 

Hope they get you going.Please let us know what they find .

 

The DRL were available back in 07... came on mine and was listed under optional equipment.

 

Definately - hope no one has this issue. If I would have just cut the wire and didn`t try some fancy stupid light - highsight is 20/20

 

Definately a dealer option, toyota part # on harness tag. Eventually it yellows the turn signal lense and will start to bubble the inside of the lense That`s why I`m turning mine off. Search DRL install tutorial and then search diconnect, same guy. Cut the red/green wire to disconnect. It works, just don`t be a dummy me and put a switch in.
