    Can you go back and get the ECU? It's located in the drivers side kick panel. You harness should have the plugs for it already.

    i can still go back to the junker to get it.

    i just didn't know shit about it and cut it off somewhere where it got to the driver's kick panel.

    what does it look like? this came from a 2001 taco pre trd.

    If it has an e-locker it has the ecu. The one you pulled it out of should have it then. Your's might because they tend till build the trucks to a cookie cutter design. That's why you will find "extra" plugs in the harness for systems your truck may not have come with.

    I have no idea about this stuff but, what I can suggest is right down the part number off your ECU, go down to the junkyard and see if it matches. If it doesn't pick it up before it's gone and continue research. Worst case scenario you throw it on e-bay.

    He doesn't think he has a 4x4 ECU. He is looking for one.

    You can get the one out of the donor vehicle. Or You can find away to supply 1.5V to the solenoid through the switch.

    You're in luck. I told my bro about your problem and he went ahead and drew up a schematic for a plug and play harness so you wouldn't need to use any ECU to retrofit an E-locker. Hes going to email it to me and I'm going get the components and solder one up. Would you be interested in testing it on your truck?

    Drew, I am seeing the solenoid needs 1.5v to operate. Can you verify that?

    Yes, motor....:eek:

    I double checked the FSM and diagram. The diagram doesn't specify what the voltage should be. I see in the reassembly instructions it notes using 1.5v to move the motor. I think that is only for alignment purpose as I understand it. All of the voltage ranges in the hints section of the diagram show 9-14v.

    Yeah I can' imagine the motor using anything other than 12v for operation. I'll make sure my brother checked that first though. If this goes well, I might start selling them. :D
