OEM FJ Switch on Tacoma?

Hi,

I want to keep my truck as “stock” as possible and have found the FJ light switches to be the best looking ones. Does anyone know if these can fit on the Tacoma blank slots next to the ATRAC and USB/Aux areas in the center on a 2nd Gen?

 

Yes indeed

 

NO, that switch is as large/Tall as all the switches on the left side of the steering (Fog, Diff Lock, Inverter).

 

Oops I read it too fast this guy is correct sorry.

 

This is correct. Some people replace the Tacoma fog light switch with the FJ fog light switch. The FJ switch has an indicator that lights up when the fog lights are on. There are more terminals in the wire connector for this, so you need the FJ wire connector also.

 

Alright, thanks guys.

 

For anyone that has replaced the stock fog light switch with the FJ Fog Light Switch, do you have instructions with hopefully pictures on how to wire this up the correct way? I have the switch with the connector and pig tails.

Thank you in advance

 

@caribe makaira, thank you so much for the detail instructions. Am going to attempt this hopefully this weekend

I was searching through the forum looking for the best way to get the OEM switch out and cam across this:

@caribe makaira, you said to connect pin 6 of the switch to pin 85 of the relay. The link I added from @LeftCoastNerd says something different?

Which is correct?

 

So many ways to skin the cat...which ever you're comfy with, and if you look closer it's the other FJ switch he's giving notes on (AS), not the LS here...

 

I love OEM no matter the cost, I had them in my 2nd gen. Here's a crappy pic.

 

And same switches when I got my first 3rd gen.
Only using the middle one now.

 

@caribe makaira, So I went and looked and I have the

$58 PT297-35070-AS Auxiliary Driving Light Switch

PT297-35070-AS switch. Do you know what the difference is between the 2 switches? Should I swap mine out to the PT297-35072-LS and than I can just follow your instructions?

 

The AS switch uses all 6 pins while the LS only uses 5 pins

 

Like mentioned before, AS has 6 pins, LS has 5 pins.

 

Perfect, thank you so much

 

Connector...fits both switches

 

I believe that is the connector I bought with the switch along with the green terminal wires, but will verify when I get home

Edit: just checked, this is what I have

 

So since you're replacing the Tacoma Fog switch with an FJ one then all you need to do is create the jumper wire. All removed wires from the vehicle have a place in the FJ connector...

 

And add the wire to go to pin 85 of the fog light relay.
