This solution is better than the Canny in the sense that you don't have to get behind the dash and tap into the CAN wires. Honestly though, splicing into OEM wires doesn't really cause me concern. As long as you disconnect the battery before you do the work, are careful, and use proper crimp...

Well, after what I explained here, if I had known it all beforehand it would have been pretty easy. The glovebox comes out with a few bolts. The kick panel snaps off and you break those little white fasteners and have to replace them for $1.50 each. Once that's done the wiring on the Main...

Just to follow-up on this.... I gave up trying to decipher Toyota's wiring setup, and bought a Canny. Implementing it wasn't necessarily simple or easy, because the documentation on the device is minimal and there is nothing whatsoever related to the 4Runner specifically. I understand CAN...

Just thought I would let everyone know, trying to tap into this wire for either a +12V signal or ground signal to trigger a relay might be doable, but be forewarned.... The diagram is misleading. The connectors are actually located far up in the dash behind the main instrument display...

At this point I would gladly pay money for a stupid simple 10 minute solution. A lot of money.

Thanks man, this is great info. Seems like tapping into that wire should make things work without having to delve into the Can system. Am I looking at it correctly, in that the connector in question is pretty much directly under the steering wheel?

Does anyone have an answer to this inquiry? I am attempting to do the same thing....get a +12V input from the vehicle's high beams to power a relay to turn on a light bar. I have a CanM8 but it has no vehicle specific instructions....in fact I cannot even use their app because apparently my...
