2016-2017 Cruise Control Mod!

Patience is a vertrue Danny!

 

With my luck the switch I receive will be faulty. LOL

 

Nah I got my fingers crossed for ya!

 

Thanks! I got a 16 SR so it should plug right in and work per this diy. I'm stoked!

 

Yep plug and play such a easy upgrade!

 

Excellent. I can't wait.

Today was the first time it rained since doing the intermittent wipers....and it rained too hard to use the intermittent settings

 

My Chinese cruise control switch from Amazon came in today! Earliest delivery estimate was October 5th so it showed up a bit early.

Anyways, I installed it in about 3 minutes and it worked as described aka awesome! Very pleased with this.

 

Awesome!!!!

 

I had to create an account to THANK the OP for this mod. You saved me more than $400!


THANKS again!

 

Just wanted to thank moe2o4 for the video on the cruise control install! Ordered mine from the site moe2o4 recommended and got it in just a couple of days, $77 including tax and free shipping. Installed as u said and worked like a charm, almost too simple! I wasn't sure how it would perform in the 2016 SR, 4Cyl 2.7, auto trans.......wow I was blown away how well it worked in conjunction with the six speed auto transmission, so smooth. I don't understand how it works with only two wires though, it has 3 pins with one not being used....seems like it would need all three for the different functions. Oh well!

I bought my 2016 in Feb 2016 and at 1800 miles Toyota had to put a new transmission in it, I was a bit bummed, but it would shift really hard when going from PARK TO REVERSE and then again into Drive. It was like I had my foot on the accelerator at about 2000rpms and tried to shift. And of course it wouldn't do it when I took it into Toyota to complain. 2nd time into Toyota it did it, left it overnight and got a call next day saying they had ordered a new transmission. Has worked great ever since. When I first got the 4cyl I wasn't sure I had made the right choice, seemed a bit doggy but at about 6000 miles it really changed....runs like a champ. I think both the engine & new transmission had to loosen up. I now know I made the right choice! Great little truck for $24,300 out the door, ordered it to get the options I DIDN'T want! Deleted the backseat option for the access cab and got it in Red, most of the SR's are white on the lots. Again thanks for the cruise pictures & write up!

 

Thanks for the writeup subbed

 

Sweet. I got a friend that has been wanting to add it to his truck. Ill pass along the information!!!!

 

When I go to the switch cover link, I get the listing has ended and can't find an updated link. Is there another source that will also have the screws?

You can get 2 screws from advance or auto zone. Trying to think of what thread they are but they are the same ones that hold your plastic on the center of the steering wheel. Just take one of those out and go to the parts store and match up the thread's and get 2!

 

Thanks!
