  1. In case of a fire! Tag spotted in engine bay

    I think it's a way for firefighters to isolate the hybrid battery.
  2. OEM AUX Switch Alternatives

    I bought a switch from StickerFab just to see what they looked like. I took it apart to see how it works. There's a little PCB inside with two surface mount LEDs and a surface mount pushbutton switch. The switch is not momentary which is probably more universal as there aren't many...
  3. Front Brake Squeal Noise Fix - official TSB brakes fix! (TSB-0046-25)

    Hmm... so I don't have this backup squeal like I've seen in videos but I do hear a very slight squeal while driving. It's not related to braking. It doesn't get worse when braking. It does seem to get a bit louder when making a right turn. These kind of noises are hard to pinpoint. Could it...
  4. Dogs / Pets ride-along photos thread! 🐾

    Her highness needs a pillow.
  5. Found a strange device under the hood

    Hmm... so judging purely by the LED part alone, this video matches what I have on my vehicle. Part of me wants to ignore it until I have to take it in for the first service and have the dealer remove it. (Yes, that would be a different dealer than the one I bought it from). That way, if they...
  6. Found a strange device under the hood

    Anyone have this thing under the steering wheel air bag? It's clearly not Toyota judging by the half-assed installation. There are two LEDs in there, one blinks green when you open the door. That ribbon cable is part of it. Other than dropping that bottom plastic, I didn't dig any further...
  7. Trailhunter - Factory brake controller not detecting trailer

    I ran into the same issue. Non-brake-controller setup. I messed around with the calibration and straight backup feature this morning. My trailer is 12 feet long but the auto length feature thought it was 18 feet. But when I put the trailer away, I kept getting this message along with the...
  8. Trailhunter 4Runner Review After 3 Weeks Ownership & 4000 Mile Road Trip

    I'm curious to know how many miles folks feel comfortable doing in a single day. The most I've ever done on my Gen 1 4Runner was 700+ but I was 20 years younger back then. I've only done about 100+ in one shot in my Trailhunter. The ambient noise level is a pleasure alone. Not having to...
  9. Found a strange device under the hood

    Does anyone know how to get at the back side of the ODB connector? I'm starting to think that there's something spliced in there. The panel right below the steering wheel has "airbag" molded into the plastic so that's not just a pop out thing.
  10. Found a strange device under the hood

    I'm starting to wonder if there are any tracking devices on my Trailhunter. The OBD plug is white so that's a possible sign that there's nothing on that assuming that all aftermarket pass-thrus are black. But there's also a green LED that's right next to that. Is that legit or not?
  11. Rear seat belt indicator light on startup

    At least it doesn't ding while my dog is resting comfortably in the back seat.
  12. Anyone know what this is for?

    Flamethrower?
  13. DIY Cargo Drawer System and Leveling Platform for Cargo Area

    Update on my version: Two issues. First, the carpeting is getting compressed under the feet so I'm going to have to unscrew them to get a little bit more height. The threaded part isn't very long so I may end up having to get some longer ones. The second issue is that unlike my 86 4Runner...
  14. Hybrid Real World MPG (iForce Max) - post your model, specs, general driving conditions, results:

    Trailhunter Normal vs Eco test report. The test conditions have been "city" driving or more accurately, mostly not at highway speed driving; elevation roughly 5000 feet MSL; A/C on. I reset the Average MPG after each fill up. I've done about 1200 miles in Normal mode and I get 20.5. The last...
  15. Glass cleaner?

    It's this stuff: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N2G2NEJ?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1
  16. Glass cleaner?

    So, the Invisible Glass doesn't seem to help at all. I mean, yes, it cleans the glass but it doesn't get rid of the mineral spots. I'm testing out the Chemical Guys water spot remover. It's a noticeable improvement. What's interesting is what happened to the test window after I took it to...
  17. My GMRS Radio mounting location

    Ooo... I like that location. Where did you run the power wiring? I figure this would be a good solution to route the antenna wire to the roof rack. https://www.4runner6g.com/forum/threads/wiring-lights-on-a-sherpa-capitol-rack-diy-install-how-to-writeup.4085/
  18. Stop, children, what's that sound?

    Maybe but you'd think that wouldn't spin up until you pressed the power button. I know it's not the parking brake.
  19. Stop, children, what's that sound?

    What's that sound coming from the engine compartment on a Trailhunter when you open the driver's side door in the morning (or when it's been sitting for a while)?
